Sorry, but that source is completely wrong.

Berlin, for example, is one of the regions where daycare is completely free (with the exception of some minor surcharges for food etc.)

And from my knowledge daycare in Germany costs generally between 0 and about 300 Euros per month and child. The cost depends more on the local state's and/or city's laws than whether it's an expensive city or rural area.

Also the differentiation in cost between public and private is often not a thing (depends on the state).

I'm not saying that there won't exist some fancy private daycare centres for 1500 or more, but they would certainly be an extremely rare exception operating out of the "normal" system anyway...

The source doesn't say it's the norm, but there very high end, an extreme.

The low was 0 to 50

I'm just pointing out how even the outlets are not close to 2000, as somebody said.
