    Unhappy Thinking About Closing...

    I am considering closing up my daycare, but am not 100% okay with the idea. I don't feel like I can mentally take staying open anymore. My own children are very demanding and high needs and I am drained by the time they leave for school in the mornings. My oldest has anxiety (diagnosed) and has panic attacks in the mornings when I drop off. She refuses to go inside and it's a fight and teacher has to carry her in....it's hard to manage her when I have 4-5 other children with me.

    My youngest daughter has a lot of behaviour issues when the other kids are here and in her space. It is constant chaos.

    I'm in a tough spot, because financially I can't afford to close right now. I have anxiety myself so not a lot of options for me outside of the home. I have 2 other businesses as well, but they are not yet off the ground with consistent income.

    I guess I'm just looking for some advice/opinions....anything really. Does anyone know of any legit at home work I could use to supplement my income?

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.
Updates
We expect providers to keep their listing and available openings up-to-date. However, to prevent oversights, openings expire after 45 days.
