Can your income be garnished if you pay child support?

Not sure in what context you mean, but yes a court order can garnish your wages for child support. IF the custodial parent has filed a support order and paternity has been established then YES absolutely your wages can be garnished. If you mean that a creditor filed judgment against you and you are the one receiving child support, they cannot touch that money, but if you are getting those direct deposited and the creditor attaches the order to your bank account the child support can be taken indirectly that way.

Is the non-custodial parent obligated to help pay for child care as well as pay child support?

In most (probably all) jurisdictions where a formula is used to determine the amount of child support, it will take into account the income of both parties and their expenses. If your ex is making $500 a week but paying $250 a week for child care, their net income will be reduced to account for that. This will result in you paying more child support. So, in that sense, the answer is yes. If you mean paying the child support ordered by the court and then also paying child care on top of that, then no, unless the support order specifically says you have to.
