Yes, to have one of the in home daycare businesses, it's a good idea for you to truly love children. Because you'll be spending a lot of time with them.

If Joey has a hard time with sharing, you're going to have a lot of problems on your hands if he has to do so on a regular basis, at least initially. This may be the sort of problem you're great at handling and that doesn't bother you a bit. If so, then starting your own day care business is a wonderful option for you.
When it comes to how to start an in home daycare businesses, you need to go on a fact-finding mission. You'll need to find out if your state requires a license for in home daycare businesses. Plus how many children you're allowed to provide care for. You also need to know if it requires any changes or additions be made to your home. States have different guidelines and regulations on these things, so know what yours requires before you invest in that great backyard playhouse you found for sale on the Internet.
Also, in home daycare businesses probably will be required to have CPR certification. While it may not be, you'll most definitely want to become certified in CPR and first aid. You never know when accidents might happen, and you want to be prepared for them.
This can also be a big help if, heaven forbid, you ever find yourself involved in a lawsuit. Having your certifications show, not just the parents of the children you provide in home daycare services for. But also law enforcement officials, that you're dedicated and serious about your in home day care business.
You also need to check into liability insurance. You'll definitely need it. And you want to check with your insurance company about your homeowner's insurance and find out what sort of protection it provides for accidents that happen on your property.
The policy may have different payouts and procedures if you have an in home business, so you want to know about this before you start your own day care business.
As with any other home based business you might go into, you want to have a day care business plan. You want to plan for accounting and tax expenses, back up providers for if and when you get sick, necessary equipment, and insurance. If you plan on growing your in home day care business, you want to plan to set aside a certain amount of your profits to help you do so.
For an in home day care business plan, you may also want to set aside money for entertainment expenses so that you can take your tots on field trips. Which, of course, you know you'll have to have the proper permission slips signed before you do.
And do lots and lots of research. Read childcare books and articles about successful in home day care businesses online. Go to different day care centers in your area. Talk with the owners, the parents, and the children, if at all possible. Find out about their likes and dislikes.
Or you can purchase a business plan/kit to help you with all of the planning, forms and policies you need, and curriculum ideas.
This will help you immensely in creating a successful in home day care business. In short, find out everything you can about children and the day care business before you go through with starting your own day care business. This preparation is vital in making your decision about whether or not you want to have a home day care business, as well as in creating one of the best in home day care businesses in town!
