    As far as your situation, I agree with 5LM, my advice is the same as hers.
    When I move to a bigger home, it's something I've considered too! Let's do it I wonder how sick days work tho....if one is too sick to work is there a group of kids that can't come that day? Or do you get a sub? Or do you close completely?

    My friend runs a group childcare, and she typically gets a sub for any time her or her coworker are away. But if that isn't possible, then only 5 kids are allowed to come in.

    Edited to add: if we want to seriously look into it in the future, we should probably get our ece diploma. Whoever has it should use their house, so the rates are the same as a centre. However, I think we could still choose to not be funded.

A few tips...

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.
