I think daycare prices are mandated by law here in Finland so that parents are paying between 28 and 295 euro per month per child. Price depends on whether it's the first or second child, and what kind of household income you are earning.

The actual dream. I often gently tease my wife as I've advocated moving to Berlin on and off over the years - I think state support for families in DE is quite generous.

My wife lived in Germany before she met me, and was married then. She was getting a lot of input that she should pop out some kids and raise them with Kindergeld. It seemed like the kind of system that U.S. opponents of Welfare get nightmares from. But I don't know how it currently operates.
