Working for more than 8 hours

[Van]

Hi everyone,

I am going to open Family Care in BC. Just realize that so many care providers offer more than 8 hours! In my small town, I have heard other care providers offer 10 hours. I used to be preschool teacher, only work for 7 hours. I cannot imagine I need to work 9 or 10 hours each day. Some of you must be dead tired by the end of the day!

This is my first time to run family care. I don't know how to set up the options for Drop-in, half day and full day. What if majority of the parents like drop-in option, what should I do? And is it too late to open my centre in November?

In BC you first need to get in touch with a Licence Person at the Coastal Health Dept in you town/city . It will take a while as they need to check out your home with the Fire dept and City.
I use to be a Preschool Teacher and then worked at a large Centre so yes , the hours are a big difference but daycare has naptime which helps
