even before expenses that's pretty damn good especially for a job that requires no formal training or education. if you're bringing in that much per week AND have a spouse who works - it's just not that sad, sorry.
I don't necessarily disagree with you, and I'm not one to cry poor when it comes to my job. However, there are many people out there who think daycare providers are just raking in the bucks, when that's just not the case. It's a job that, when done right, can pay a decent wage, but it is by no means a high paying job.
