Center-based child care costs have been increasing steadily over the past five years, according to recent data from Child Care Aware of America (CCAoA).
The national average annual price of child care in 2023 across all age groups (infants, toddlers, and children over the age of 4) was $11,582—an increase of 3.7% from 2022.
In 2019, about 32% of children under the age of one were enrolled in center-based care, according to the National Center for Education Statistics.
