I do 6:30-4:30 because there is a demand for it in my area since government workers do 7-3. or 8-4 mostly and need to allow 30-45 minutes to get to work some days. My hubby catches his bus to work for 6:30 so I have to be up before he leaves so I don't sleep through my first arrival so figured if I was up anyways might as well and a lot around here won't so it helps me on that front. I have two that come then and just watch tv till next one gets here at 7 than all are here by 7:30 and we can start our day. At the end of the day they start going home just after 4pm too and right now are all gone by 4:30 so I have a relax time before needing to do supper since hubby doesn't get back home till about 4:45-5. The parents that come early are so appreciative of me opening for them at 6:30 that they go out of their way to keep me happy - can't complain with that either. I check emails, eat my breakfast etc after they get here. They come already fed.
