Kindercare rates: Child Care Costs & Tuition Information

Babysitting costs skyrocketed almost 10% in 2022

Data: UrbanSitter; Chart: Alice Feng/Axios

Babysitting rates rose 9.7% nationally in 2022 — a bit less than the 11% hike seen in 2021, but still outpacing inflation for the second year in a row.

• That’s according to survey results from caregiver-finding platform UrbanSitter, provided first to Axios.

Why it matters: A shortage of babysitters and other child care workers — and higher pay those remaining are able to command — is creating seismic ripples in the labor market, keeping some parents at home or in precarious care arrangements.

• It’s also attracting teachers, nurses and other trained professionals into the career — which in turn drives up rates, because of their experience.
• In the other direction, day care workers are quitting for higher pay elsewhere — including at custodial jobs.

The big picture: Rates are up across all categories of care, from casual babysitting to full-time nannies to day care (where it can be hard to even get on a waitlist).

• Per a 2022 Care.com survey, 51% of U.S. parents were spending over 20% of their income on child care — far more than the 7% that the federal government deems “affordable.”

By the numbers: Last year’s national average babysitting rate was $22.68 an hour for one child, $25.37 an hour for two and $27.70 an hour for three.

• That’s a staggering 21% increase in just two years, according to UrbanSitter, which looked at booking data from 15,000 U.S. families.

Among the major U.S. cities surveyed by UrbanSitter, the highest babysitting rates were in the San Francisco Bay Area ($25.24 an hour for one child) and Seattle ($​​24.60) — nudging out New York City, which took the top spot last year at $23.45.

• Springfield, Missouri, had the lowest rate, at $11.35.

Yes, but: UrbanSitter’s pay rates are on the high side compared with those suggested by Care.com and Sittercity.

What they’re saying: The pandemic-era need for “configurable care” — perhaps a babysitter two days a week, and other arrangements for the rest — has waned as employers yank folks back into the workplace, Lynn Perkins, the founder and CEO of UrbanSitter, tells Axios.

• This translates to a double whammy for parents. “Not only are people paying more, but they’re also using more hours,” Perkins said.

Of note: Au pairs are back in demand, as parents seek out live-in help as a more affordable option (for those who have the space).

• “Share cares” are also more popular, with families teaming up to hire a communal sitter — which can also mean more money for caregivers.

The policy angle: Working parents increasingly expect more child care support from employers and the government, a recent KinderCare report found.

• Child care benefits are the second-highest reason parents stay at their job, behind health insurance, per KinderCare, which partnered with the Harris Poll to survey 2,800 U.S. parents with children under 12.

• Chains like KinderCare, Bright Horizons and UrbanSitter are working with employers to offer subsidized child care, which is used to attract and retain workers.
• A small but growing number of states offer child care subsidies — including New York, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Maine and Connecticut — but not enough is happening at the federal level, advocates say.
• Expanded federal tax credits for child care expired at the end of 2022, though President Biden called for them to be restored in his State of the Union speech on Tuesday.

What’s next: Some employers are starting to subsidize child care for blue-collar workers.

• “We have a broader swath of companies coming to us — people who have employees in distribution centers or manufacturing facilities,” Perkins said.
• “I think that’s because otherwise, those companies are not going to sustain those employees.”

What we’re watching: Nonprofits are addressing the child care crisis in innovative new ways.

• A Maine community development financial institution called Coastal Enterprises runs a business incubator that trains people to operate child care centers.
• Since 2020, it’s spawned 16 new businesses licensed for 330 children.

The bottom line: Groups like Moms First (formerly the Marshall Plan for Moms) are trying to put child care front and center on the business agenda, but it’s been slow going.

• National Caregivers Day is next Friday, Feb. 17 — remember to thank the ones in your life!

Physical education instructor – Kindergarten and child

Question: Hello. Answer, please! What is the maximum number of stakes a physical education instructor can have? They promise me 1.6 bets for 13 groups. Is it possible? Maria

Answered by Vladimir Korzhov, lawyer:

Good afternoon! The number of maximum rates for a physical education instructor has not been established. On this occasion, in Note 4 to the order of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia dated December 22, 2014 N 1601 “On the duration of working hours (norms of hours of pedagogical work for the wage rate) of pedagogical workers and on the procedure for determining the teaching load of pedagogical workers, stipulated in the employment contract” it is established that

for pedagogical work performed with the written consent of the employee in excess of the established norm of hours for the wage rate, payment is made from the established wage rate in proportion to the actually determined volume of pedagogical work.

In accordance with Part 2 of Art. 46 of the Federal Law of December 29, 2012 N 273-ФЗ “On Education in the Russian Federation” and the Nomenclature of the Positions of Pedagogical Workers (approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of August 08, 2013 N 678), a physical education instructor belongs to the teaching staff of a preschool educational institution.

At the same time, according to Art. 333 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation and clause 2.6 of the order of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia dated December 22, 2014 N 1601, physical education instructors are set hours of pedagogical work 30 hours a week for a wage rate of .

The current resolution of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation of 21.04.1993 N 88 “On approval of the Standards for determining the number of personnel employed in the maintenance of preschool institutions (nurseries, nurseries, kindergartens, kindergartens)” (which has a RECOMMENDATION character) reflects that a physical education instructor conducts work on teaching children in accordance with the program and methods of physical education.

In this case, in accordance with clause 2.3.3. of these recommendations of the Ministry of Labor, the standard number of instructors in physical education (without teaching children to swim) is 0. 25 rates for every 2 groups of children aged 3 years (or 0.175 rates for 1 group) .

That is, the establishment with your consent in your employment contract of wages, taking into account 1.6 rates for 13 groups, taking into account the program and methodology of physical education, does not contradict the recommendations of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation of 04/21/1993 N 88, since if you strictly observe them, you are entitled to more than 2 bets:

13 groups * 0.175 bets = 2.275 bets.

At the same time, the norm of your pedagogical work (physical education instructor) in accordance with paragraph 2.6 of the order of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia dated December 22, 2014 N 1601 should not exceed 48 hours per week:

30 hours * 1.6 rates = 48 hours.

NOTE. Sports equipment at low prices in the specialized store “Kindergarten” – detsad-shop.ru.

I work as a teacher in a kindergarten for 0.

83 rates, but in order for the worked year to be credited to the ped. experience required to work full-time. The manager arranged me for a 0.25 part-time job as a junior educator. Will this part-time job be included in my ped. experience, to obtain early ped. pensions? How many min. number of hours (days) must be worked out by the educator per year for this to be counted as a ped. seniority for retirement?

Share:

Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of October 29, 2002 No. 781 approved the Rules for calculating periods of work giving the right to early appointment of an old-age labor pension to persons who carried out pedagogical activities in institutions for children, in accordance with subparagraph 19 of paragraph 1 of Article 27 of the Federal Law “ On labor pensions in the Russian Federation” (hereinafter referred to as the Rules).

Paragraph 4 of the Rules establishes that the periods of work performed before September 1, 2000 in positions in the institutions indicated in the list are counted in the length of service, regardless of the condition for fulfilling the norm of working hours during these periods (pedagogical or educational load), and starting from September 1, 2000 – subject to the fulfillment (in total for the main and other places of work) of the working time norm (pedagogical or study load) established for the wage rate (official salary), except for cases specified by these Rules.

However, it is also necessary to take into account the provisions of paragraph 3 of the Rules, according to which the length of service is counted in the manner prescribed by these Rules, periods of work in positions in institutions specified in the List of positions and institutions, work in which is counted in the length of service, giving the right to early appointment of an old-age labor pension to persons who carried out pedagogical activities in institutions for children, in accordance with subparagraph 19 of paragraph 1 of Article 27 of the Federal Law “On labor pensions in the Russian Federation” (also approved by the above-mentioned Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation) (hereinafter referred to as the List). At the same time, work in the positions specified in paragraph 1 of the “Names of positions” section of the List is counted in the length of service, provided that it is performed in the institutions specified in paragraphs 1.1 – 1.4. section “Names of Institutions” of the List, and work in the positions specified in paragraph 2 of the “Names of Positions” section of the List, in the institutions specified in paragraph 2 of the “Names of Institutions” section of the List.
