Bringing up Baby: Costs & Habit
Insights of the American Mom from zulily.com
In celebration of moms this
Mother’s Day, online retailer zulily.com is honoring new moms nationwide by taking
a closer look at something they all can relate to –budgeting for all things
baby!
Read on here for some of the survey
insights they found regarding spending and saving habits when preparing for
baby:
·
With
annual childcare costs hovering around $6,000, it’s crucial to choose (and
pay!) the right person to watch your kids. In our survey Julia Roberts was voted the top celeb moms would let babysit, but
Kim Kardashian didn’t make the cut and was only selected by 3% of respondents.
·
Raising
kids can get pretty pricey, so it’s no surprise a third of mothers surveyed said
they’d compete in a monthly random dance
battle (32%) in exchange for free baby gear, attire, etc.
·
Almost
half of mothers surveyed (45%) said the most missed pre-mom indulgence is actually having a day off.
·
33%
of moms agreed that the most common squabble couples have regarding new
parenting is about money.
With all the above stats, it’s no wonder
moms everywhere are always on the lookout for smarter ways to spend on baby, and
online retailer zulily is dedicated to
helping their plight by serving up fresh, unexpected items for baby and the
whole family, in fact, just in the last year customers have saved millions of
dollars on baby gear items. Here’s the breakdown:
