What’s that you hear? Just the sound of your wallet crying.

The cost of childcare in the summer is $998 per child, according to Bankrate.com’s survey of nearly 4,000 adults. But one in five parents plans to spend more than $2,000 per child, with 8 percent spending $2,001 to $3,000, and 12 percent who expect to pay $3,000 or more.

Of the 59 percent of participants who say they’ll be paying with a credit card, only 25 percent will pay it off immediately, compared to 35 percent who plan to pay off the cost over time. How does this pan out? Not too great—33 percent of parents who plan to pay for summer childcare will accumulate debt.
