My home is a 5 level split. The main floor is kitchen and living dining room. This area gets used at meal times only. The next level down is ground floor with a walk out to my fenced back yard. The living room in here gets used sometimes. I keep a small basket of toys on this floor and the kiddos play here as I prepare meals and snacks. The kitchen overlooks this floor so I can easily supervise. As well on this floor is the kids bathroom and the naproom.
The next floor down is one of the basement levels (I have 2) and I have turned the entire floor into a playroom. I have an old sectional couch down there, all the toys and craft supplies. There is a little table down there that they sit at if they want to colour or do thier puzzles.
I like this set up as at the end of the day my job goes away. I still need to make the main floors of my house tidy and presentable but if I don't want to deal with all the toys, or even just look at my "job" then I don't have to.
That's so funny! I have the exact same house layout! I just wish I had a bathroom on my lowest level (the basement playroom)....aww well, on the 'dream list'. I too love that I can close the door & forget about it at the end of the day.
Children are great imitators.
So give them something great to imitate.

Weird! But I have to say I find it the ideal layout for what we do. Short of having a converted garage or seperate basement entrance or something I find the 5 level split to be an awesome home daycare layout.
Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
