Providing care through pregnancy and after delivery
Hello everyone, I posted this in caring for children but unfortunately did not get any responses... hoping to get some feedback.
I am 5 months pregnant and a home daycare provider to two full time kids and two part times school age kids. A new child will be starting with me at the end of the month; he will be 11 month old. I have a 20 month old son of my own.
As the daycare, the kids and the parents are all so important to me, I have decided to keep the daycare open throughout (with the exception of a two week vacation after delivery). My husband will be taking parental leave for 6-9 months and will be taking on the challenge of being a daycare provider with me. Has anyone gone through a similar situation? Any advice, tips, thoughts?
All the parents are onboard with this... I am even taking on a new little guy with the parents knowing what is to come. I am quite positive this will work out, however more challenging as the school kids will also be home during the summer (my due date is at the end of June). I personally think the biggest challenge will be spending 24/7 with the hubby :)
Looking forward to hearing feedback
