I just started providing childcare and my two are 2.5 and 8 months. The new child is 15 months and just had her second day with me. She cried quite a bit because of missing her mom and I found it challenging because it set off my normally independent 8 month old and they both wanted to be held all day! Plus, they didn't sleep at the same time so I had no break. I think the beginning will be hard like this and then it will get easier as time goes on. Just be prepared that it will not be easy at first!
