Salary is based on whatever someone is willing to pay you, and that is usually based on their perception of what you can accomplish for them. Salary, earning potential, and marketability are not only determined by the type of field you are in and the degree you possess. It depends on your position within that field, the institution you work for, your experience, expertise, personal abilities, critical thinking skills, problem solving abilities, dedication and commitment toward ones work, and more. Thus, salary is not so much dependent on the type of degree as much as it is dependent on the person who holds the degree. Still, if you have a specific occupational title, you can then retrieve the estimated mean annual wage particular to that occupation through the U.S. Department of Labor: Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Having run a preschool and hired people with degrees in child development you will not make more than min wage or a little above. I have a BS in child development ( I love the degree) and also got a teaching credential. I suggest you think about going into teaching. Keep thinking your degree in child development but do the 4 years of college with a teaching credential. Working in a child development center is hard work with little pay.
