Timing your daycare

Timing changes what you pay for daycare. Demand peaks around holidays, seasonal deadlines and the start of the busy season, and prices follow. Booking in a quieter window is one of the few levers that lowers the figure without cutting scope.

Who sets daycare prices

There is no fixed tariff for daycare. The figure is set by the provider's own economics, covering labour, materials, travel and availability, so it varies by company and by season.

How to compare quotes for daycare

When you compare quotes for daycare, line up the scope, the materials and the timeline rather than just the totals. Ask each provider what would make the price rise after the quote is accepted.
