I have been following you all on this forum since I started up my daycare this summer. You would not believe how much I have been helped already. I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. :wub:
Would you like to know the most useful thing that I have taken away? The confidence to treat my day care as a business. I have done home day care previously, in another life and I let the parents call the shots. I let the arrangements be set up like I was an employee of theirs. :yes: Yes I did. After reading this forum for the last few months I truly can't believe that I let that happen.
As my mother-in-law would say "Start as you mean to go on" :)
Am I ever organised now. lol I call the shots and have set the rules up. I have even been known to speak up and point out things to my families that are not right for my day care. I am so proud of myself! I truly believe that the parents respect me more now. Who would have thought.
Now that I have signed up here I look forward to being a bit more involved! Who knows maybe I can help some of you one day.
See you around the forums!
