they are right, there is no one certain amount because there are other things factored in; such as daycare expenses, medical insurance costs, medical costs, or other needs...
todays courts add BOTH parents income in, and if one parent isnt working, the court will make an income for them (minimum wage or other) to calculate the amount.
some calculators; just click on your state and fill it in. it will give a general amount, not exact.

The below link is a "Child Support Calculator" which will help you with a ballpark figure that the Judge COULD order!
Every state has a certain percentage to levy against ones wages to determine an appropriate amount of child support!
Best wishes.
