    Would you lower your rate?

    Ladies,

    I'm sad today, just beat down, worn out. I love daycare so much, because I love being my own boss, and controlling my work environment etc. But I hate the slump I am in.

    I have had interview after interview lately, and parents only seem to care about price.

    That and a big yard. I can't change the yard part, but I have been thinking about lowering my rates to get families.

    The thing is though, I am on par with every other reputable daycare in the area..and, they are having trouble filing too. For a while my part time/casual shtick was working for me, now EVERYONE is doing it.

    Thoughts?
