    My first year I opened I had 9 part time children sharing 4 spaces and only 1 full time child it was NUTS for various reasons most importantly the added EXPENSE of part time care so I would DEFINITELY charge MORE for the service ... not just because while the one shared space might be empty for a while finding another person and you loose income but extra things like Christmas, Mother's day, Father's Day, Valentines, Halloween and so forth having to make that many presents or make sure everyone has a 'craft' from that theme and so forth .... since than I have like others mentioned weaned it down to only having ONE part time space at anyone one time and holding out to find full time clients for the other 4 spaces!
    Children construct their own intelligence. The adult must provide activities and context, but most of all must be able to listen. Children need proof that adults believe in them. Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."
