ive been thinking whether 3yo kinder is worth worrying about? i was having a chat to my mums group yesterday, and 2 of the mums are just going to leave their kiddies in creche (one is currently in for 3 days, the other is in for 1 day) instead of worrying about kinder. im wondering if i should do they same?

so my question is-

what does it cost (roughly) for childcare? would i be better of doing one full day? 2 half days? 2 full days? argh!

also, how does the rebate thingy work? is everyone eligible for that?

all i know about 3yo kinder is that it costs about $800 a year?
