You can add the expenses for a second daycare by following these steps in TurboTax Online:

 

  1. Open your return, navigate to 2024 Taxes on the left side, choose Federal > Deductions and Credits > Dependent Care Credit, choose the box that says "Add/Edit"
  2.  The next screen asks "Do you want to review your child and dependent care credit information?" Say "Yes." 
  3.  Continue through the questions that ask about parent's employment and school.
  4. You will get to a screen that says "Here's what we have so far" where the first daycare should be listed. ‌Click the box to "Add Expenses for Another"
  5. Complete the information for the 2nd daycare.
