You forgot the actual cost for the building.

I know a couple of daycare owners. Profit margins aren't great and you still very much have a "we do it because we love kids" mentality.

I wonder about the cost of insurance. I would imagine it’s a significant part of the tuition.

Probably not, it's going to be a fraction of salary costs.
