    I am almost 6 months along, (due in Oct) and I am having a hard time finding new children (obviously!) I have 2 full timers and a part timer adn desperately need more income and was hoping to get 2 full time spots filled. I have been advertising, and meeting people and talking thru email etc. As soon as they find out I am pregnant, they seem to 'find someone else' or 'think I have have my hands too full'. I am 26 yrs old, I haev a ton of energy, this is my 2nd child and my husband will be taking 9 months when this new baby is born so he is essentially going to be a 2nd care provider as he loves the kids and they love him.

    Be very sure when you speak to people to tell them that your husband will be there to deal with the baby which frees you up to do the daycare.While this isn't likely how it will end up being it could be that some parents are feeling uneasy thinking your husband is going to be the one dealing with the daycare while you deal with the baby. There is still a lot of stigma issues about having a "man" in the home during daycare hours. I interviewed a family a couple years ago that was so paranoid that when my son was coming home from university for his reading week they pulled their child.

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.
