Hi everyone. I am moving to Chicago and am considering opening up a playgroup or babysitting group in West Roger's Park. Ideally, I would like to open a playgroup from M-Th 8:30-2:30 and Fri 8:30-12:00 with an assistant (assuming I have enough kids). My questions are as follows:
a. Is there a need for either one of those groups?
b. If yes, what ages are needed?
c. Average monthly rate for a playgroup?
d. Hourly rate for babysitting?
e. What hours do people need childcare most?
f. Typical playgroup hours?
f. What would you consider a good size group?
I would love to hear feedback on what mothers are looking for in a playgroup or babysitting group as well as the current situation in Chicago.

I see this is old but ill answer.
a. Is there a need for either one of those groups? I dont live in WRP but I know some people that are stuck. but cant answer which would be better. or the ages.
b. If yes, what ages are needed?
c. Average monthly rate for a playgroup? most playgroups I know of are from 9-1:30 (some have optional early drop off or later babysitting) and charge $250/month (fridays is 12:30/1 depending)
d. Hourly rate for babysitting? babysitters are open different hours, whatever they decide or find their clients need. I have used wrp sitters occasionally as well as pp ones and its been $6/hr for 1 child, $10 for two
e. What hours do people need childcare most? I dont usually use a sitter cause I have other arrangements but when I do I have a bit of a struggle finding someone who does a full day as I work 9-5
f. Typical playgroup hours? 9-1:30
f. What would you consider a good size group? babysitting- 5-6 kids at a variety of ages (1-2 young infants and the rest toddlers. playgroups with 1 assistant- 12-15 kids
oh- and at least in PP very few sittters stay open in august and I know a few ppl including myself that have a hard time figuring out arrangements
