Rookie here!
I am a registered dental hygienist (working one day a week only) i am contemplating working with an agency in order to be a licenced home daycare for the other four days of my week. There is only one agency in my city (non-profit) so it's either agency or unlicensed.
There is so much advertisement from unlicensed daycare providers In this city that I thought by being licenced with an agency would give me an edge and increase my likelihood of obtaining clients. But I wonder if it's even worth the effort of working for an agency if the agency will be paying out only minimal $$ . It is my understanding that the agency takes roughly 30% of the caregiver's income.
Just looking for advice from those that have worked with a non-profit agency.
