Affiliate Disclosure

How We Earn Revenue

Daycare Cost Guide is a free resource. To keep it free, we earn revenue through affiliate partnerships and advertising. When you click certain links on this site and take an action (such as signing up for a service or making a purchase), we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.

What This Means for You

• You will never pay more by using our links. Affiliate commissions are paid by the service provider, not by you.
• We only recommend services that we believe are relevant to parents and caregivers researching childcare options.
• Affiliate relationships do not influence the childcare cost data on this site. All pricing data comes directly from the U.S. Department of Labor's National Database of Childcare Prices.

Our Affiliate Partners

We may earn commissions from the following types of services:

• Childcare search platforms (e.g. Care.com, Winnie)
• Parenting and family services
• Financial planning tools relevant to family budgeting

This list may be updated as we add or remove partnerships.

Advertising

This site may display advertisements served by third-party ad networks. Ad content is selected by the ad network and does not reflect endorsement by Daycare Cost Guide. Advertising revenue helps support the ongoing maintenance and improvement of this site.

Editorial Independence

Our childcare cost data is sourced from the U.S. Department of Labor and is presented without modification. No affiliate partner or advertiser can influence the data, rankings, or comparisons shown on this site. Our editorial content (guides, FAQs, and analysis) is written independently.

FTC Compliance

This disclosure is provided in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255). We are committed to transparent disclosure of our material connections with affiliate partners.
