  • Whenever I tell people that I own my own day care business, I usually get a follow up question about how I got started doing it. Well...here's the 4-1-1, the inside scoop, the low down on my personal child care business start up journey! I hope this inspires you to do what you can with what you have where you are, and get your business started, too.

    I would love to open a 24 hour daycare center. I know it's hard for single parents with no help. Not everyone works 9 to 5. The 6:30 closing time has to go lol. Some people want to work but sometimes overnight shifts are the only openings and they can't take a job because of a 6 or 7 pm close time. Especially us first responders. One day I'll open one.

    Thank you so much for sharing your story. I too, started my daycare business at home and 2 1/2 years later opened a center, with the help from one of my daycare parents. Not on the scale of your amazing center, but I’m taking steps to enlarge my territory.
    I definitely learned a lot opening the center on my own and I still have a lot more to learn. What I can’t figure out on my own, I’m writing out a list for your assistance in a one on one consultation.
    Congratulations and I’m so proud of your accomplishments!

    I've been thinking about opening my own daycare center for years. I did in home daycare but parents weren't on time w/picking up their kids and/or paying. I even had one lady say she didn't remember me watching her kids even tho I had a log that was signed during drop off & pick up. I ended up working in a deli but child care is still on my mind.

    • @DaniChristine
      @DaniChristine  Před 4 lety +8

      If it's a passion of your's, I would definitely suggest you go back to it. It sounds like you didn't have the proper systems in place from the beginning to make sure parents understood your policies and procedures, or you were not enforcing them properly. It's important to have a handbook of policies for both employees and families and make them sign off on it. As soon as there is an issue or a violation of your policy, maybe give a warning to remind them of what they have agreed to, but you should consider letting them go after that. It's easier said than done, I know, especially during times when you may be struggling with enrollment, but it's definitely necessary and so worth it for your peace of mind (and to make room for families that DO follow your rules!)

    I have a nice chunk of money and was considering either a day care or group home. There seems to be more money in the group home but harder to start. The day care seems more simple to start up. I don’t want a home one though I want a center 😊

    Hi Dani you are very interesting and yes I want to open a center first but it seem as if you should open in your house first so you can have clients first. What do you think is best coz I have experience in working in a daycare and had started to open in my house when I was turned away cause one of my family members had a record and they turned me down for license. I want to really start with a center cause my first love is working in the center but o don’t have my degree to run it but I hopefully hire someone to run it until I get my degree
