For me, making the decision to manage my own home daycare was easy and fairly stress-free. Making the jump from being a stay-at-home mom to caring for other children in my home was very natural. It helped that I had taken several child development courses in college and was familiar with not only the care aspects but also nutrition and safety. However, it’s a big decision that comes with some positive and some negative aspects. Hopefully, the information below will give aspiring home daycare owners insight into what the business is really like.
Pros
Cons
Ultimately the decision is what is best for you. Each person has their own set of likes and dislikes about working in childcare centers versus private homes. Weigh your options carefully, discuss it with family members, and talk to friends or family who have ran their own home-based daycares. I personally enjoyed these years and the big decision maker for me was the fact that I could work from home while also being able to spend time with and care for my children. I didn’t want to miss a thing, and I didn’t have to!
