    Where I live the max daycare fee is 2110 SEK for two children, which we pay. It is based on income though, so you could pay less with less total monthly household income. The fee is 1,265.63 SEK for the first child and 843.75 SEK for the second child. There’s a descending step system for the fee, per child, so the more children you have in daycare, the less you pay on average, per child. There’s also some sort of tax reduction included with that price, like 20-25% or something. Can’t remember exactly the details.

      I checked now and we pay 1688 SEK / month, which I think is the maximum.

        For one child?

        Edit: Ah, right. Yes, it’s the same fee for us, possibly we live in the same kommun.

        But there’s also a special clause for children above 3 years of age, which both of mine are.

        För barn 3–5 år som enbart går i allmän förskola (15 timmar per vecka) betalar du ingen avgift.

        För övriga 3–5 åringar med plats på förskola och pedagogisk omsorg minskas avgiften med 25 procent automatiskt med anledning av rätten till allmän förskola. Det gäller från 1 juli det år då barnet fyller tre år.

        So that’s 1688 - 25% = 1266 SEK (for our first-born). Possibly you don’t have that discount because your child is younger than 3?

          Yep, and also she’s there between 08:30-16:10 every day so quite a lot more than 15 h/week.

          Ah, sorry, didn’t see the second bullet point. Yep, she’s one and nine months.
