Assuming you only take 2 weeks off to make the math easy, every $4 per day you save equals $1,000 per year.

If you have decided to raise kids, the difference between paying for childcare and not is already quite the savings.

(52 weeks) - (2 weeks) = 50 weeks

(50 weeks) x (5 days/week) = 250 days

(250 days) x ($4/day) = $1,000
