Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie spend incredible '£6million a year' on their kids

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie spend a staggering $10 million (£6.1 million) on childcare for their brood.

The superstar couple rack up huge child care, travel and food bills every month looking after their six kids.

As well as spending $5 million (£3.1 million) on private jets, the Hollywood pair splashed out $900,000 (£541,000) last year on a nanny for each of the children.

Feeding Maddox, nine, Pax, seven, Zahara, six, Shiloh, four, and twins Knox and Vivienne, two, meanwhile costs around $36,000 (£22,000 ).

And having a nanny for each of them costs up to $900,000 (£541,000).

A source told a US magazine In Touch: 'They spend more than a million dollars on private tutors who travel around the world with them.

'They [even] once spent $500,000 (£301,000) for one stay at the Waldorf [Astoria hotel in New York]."

The couple also spent an estimated several million dollars on first-class airfare and hotel bills for the youngsters.

Representatives for Pitt, 47, and Jolie, 35, were not available for comment.

The news comes just days after it was revealed that the couple were on the hunt for a new nanny.

The pair are apparently prepared to pay a £90,000 a year salary for the lucky applicant.

They will also be required to travel between California, New Orleans and France, as well as other film locations around the world.

As well as a degree in education or child development, Brad and Angelina are demanding the nanny should speak at least two different languages, as well as the native tongues of their children.

Brad's parents, Bill and Jane, recently moved in to the family's Chateau Miraval estate in France to help the couple raise their large brood - meaning the nannying position may not be a lifetime role.

A source told The Sun earlier this week: 'The whole family is going to move there as soon as the renovations are done. At the moment they have six nannies - one for each of the kids - and the plan is to get rid of the helpers and rely on Bill and Jane.

'The annex they will live in is an old building which used to be used as a dovecote. It's big enough to have a sitting room, kitchen and a couple of bedrooms. It will make a lovely little cottage for them.'
