Oof, wouldn't we all like to know. I personally am saving for my own college education. I would suggest you just...save! Save your money, put some aside in a bank account.
Good luck!

The earlier you start the better. There are different ways of doing it. What I have found very helpful is UPromise. It is FREE to register with them.
Go to www.upromise.com.
On there you register all of your credit cards, debit cards, store cards and as you spend a certain percentage of that amount is saved into an account for the child you specify. Whether it is at the store, certain gas stations, restaurants, online shopping, etc. they are all included and they give you the list of stores/restaurants/gas stations that contribute through UPromise.
If you have friends and family that would like to help you they have it where they can sign up too and as they spend a certain percentage will go towards your childs education.
They also have additional savings plans as well called the Fund 529 Plan. In the same way that 401(k) plans help families save for retirement, 529 plans help you save for your child's college education. As a Upromise member, you can open a Upromise College Fund savings plan through Upromise Investments by saving as little as $50 a month (that's less than $2 a day).
Best of luck!

Just go down to your bank, and open up a Savings Account with $100.00 to start and add to it every month.. Like $100.00 or a $50.00, or whatever you can every month...... And dont ever touch it until she's grown-up, you know.... Let it collect interest all those years, and then by the time she's Graduated Highschool my gosh you should be set for her!!! Let's say you started next month...... At $100.00 a month, that'll be $7,200 by the time she Graduates highschool......But, if you put $200.00 in a savings, plus interest...... That would be $16,600, for you to put her in a pretty good college!!! Smile!!! Plus interest , whatever that would be...... You could ask your bank-teller to add up whatever interest would be paid into her savings while your opening her account for college...... Good-Luck, and what a Great Caring, Mother you are!!! Two thumbs up from me!! Smile!!!

Try upromise.com. I have an account and when I spend money at the grocery store it adds up for college for my grandkids.

deposit $200 or any amount you like as long as it is reasonable and collect the money and be sure to put it in the bank. Do this every month and DO NOT take out any money out.... hope this helps.... Good Luck =)
