Personally I know I couldn't do it. My kids have soooo much energy and mixing my school aged son with the daycare kids is challenging even for short periods let-alone full-time! I am not sure how I could teach them while caring for all the other kids. I find even trying to encorporate learning activities for the 3-4 year olds can be a challenge sometimes with the toddlers as they are grabbing stuff and want to do it too but aren't ready. Maybe if you had a really small group it might work...or maybe you are more patient and organized than me! I guess it also depends on your child...my son drives me bananas when he is home with the daycare...he needs to be out with kids his age!
