Subject: home based care

I have had a home-based childcare for 17 years, caring for the children of teachers, so I'm off in June and July. I'm in Kansas and charge $95.00 per week for a 2 year old. Good for the person who makes $36,000 a year - GREAT income!! Anyone starting up though, remember, your expenses come right off the top of what you make. There are many expenses in childcare that you have receipts for and some that are not so well documented, such as wear and tear on your house and furniture, extra electrical and water use, etc. (Kids flush toilets and wash hands alot of times in day!)
