Infant care

For those of you who have kids and take your baby’s to child/infant/day care how is your experience so far ?! What are the pros and cons ?! And how much do you pay ?! And how often do you pay? Im currently in the situation where I have to find an infant care for my son who is 9 months old . I hate it ! I cant see someone other than my mom taking care of my baby but it came to that because I’m moving out of my moms house 😩
