It depends what was calculated for child support. A proper calculation includes: the basic support, based on parties' net incomes and number of overnights; a percentage of the child's health insurance and a percentage of the child's child care costs.
So, the child care portion may have already been computed into your child support number. Courts usually require the filing of child support guidelines worksheets which break all this down. If you have a court order for support, ask to see the guidelines and then you can see if the child care is also included.
