I recommend being licensed, a member of a local support group, member of a food program, and most of all having a good thorough solid contract/policies for parents to abide by. (payment on Monday morning, sickness policy, hours, etc) My contract is 9 pages and grows each year. (Recently had to add an amendment on lice and pinworm after hearing of a friend's disaster in her home childcare!) The tax benefits are wonderful, and being home for my children is a perk! In the midwest, with 6 - 8 kids over each day, roughly 48 weeks per year (take some time for yourself and your own family!) at $110/week you can earn $32,000 plus! Name: Email: Subject
