The first step is to prepare a business plan. Even if you will not be applying for a bank loan, a business plan helps you to think through your business - what it needs, who it will benefit, how much it will cost, and what is its potential. Here are free business plans on childcare business that you may want to look into:\n\nhttp://www.sba.gov/library/pubs/mp-30.doc\nhttp://www.misbtdc.org/documents/BPWORKBK.pdf\nhttp://www.misbtdc.org/documents/CDCPLAN.pdf\nhttp://sbdcnet.utsa.edu/sbic/bplans.htm \n\nYou may want to read the free article "How To Start Your Own Day Care Center" http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol40/daycare.htm It covers various aspects of starting and running a daycare center including the demand for daycare centers, how to start this business, shoestring strategies, how to operate a daycare center, tips on caring for the children, income potential, how to manage your daycare, marketing your business and other additional income potential. There are so many things to learn about the business that the first step is to read everything you can find.\n\nFor in-depth information, I suggest checking out the following books:\n\n- Start and Run a Profitable Home Day Care \n- The Daycare Provider's Workbook \n- Start Your Own At-Home Child Care Business \n- So You Want to Open a Profitable Child Care Center : \nEverything You Need to Know to Plan, Organize and Implement a Successful Program \n\nIt is also important that you learn the tax rules affecting daycare centers, especially if you are going to open one from your home. Here is the IRS page on child care centers: http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/industries/content/0,,id=99878,00.html\n\nAs for the licenses and requirements in your state, the Administration for Children and Families provide a state by state listing of contacts for licensing and regulations governing child care businesses:\nhttp://www.nccic.org/statedata/dirs/regoffic.html\n\nIn PA, you contact:\n\nPennsylvania Department of Public Welfare \nBureau of Child Day Care \nOffice of Children, Youth and Families \nHealth and Welfare Building, Room 131 \nP.O. Box 2675 \nHarrisburg, PA 17105-2675 \nPhone: 717-787-8691 \nFax: 717-787-1529 \nHotline: 877-4-PA-KIDS (within state)\nWeb site: http://www.dpw.state.pa.us/child/\nChildCare/003670906.htm \n\nFor a list of Licensing offices:\nhttp://www.dpw.state.pa.us/child/ChildCare/003670565.htm\nand\nhttp://www.dpw.state.pa.us/child/ChildCare/003670452.htm\n\n\nAs for grants, contrary to what you heard, the Government hardly gives out grants to help start a for-profit business unless you are in a rural depressed area (Philly obviously is not) or you are an American Indian living in a reservation.\n\nNonetheless, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support a for-profit venture.\n\nEven if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently. But still the info is the same - hardly any grants for starting a for profit business.\n\nEven SBA does NOT give out grants. From the SBA website http://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html... \n\n"The U.S. Small Business Administration does not offer grants to start or expand small businesses, although it does offer a wide variety of loan programs. (See http://www.sba.gov/financing for more information) While SBA does offer some grant programs, these are generally designed to expand and enhance organizations that provide small business management, technical, or financial assistance. These grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments."\n\nHere is a listing o

Most day care centers only require a high school diploma.  The really good ones require bachelor's degrees.  It just depends on the day care center and the specific job you're applying for.  Even if you get a bachelor's, if you've never worked with kids - they won't hire you.\n\nThe online and correspondence certificates are pretty well worthless.  Either take junior college courses or just apply.

If you're just Baby sitting I don't think you need a license.But if you're trying to run a day care then you should have a license no matter how many children.

Go to DFAX [Family & Children Services] in Atlanta and request a list of the private home daycares and day care centers in the area you are interested in. \n\nYou didn't say for what you want the info - so I am assuming you are looking to start one yourself? If so - DFAX will have a lot of info for you, including the requirements you will need to meet in order to qualify to operate one. \n\nMake some phone calls [classifieds + DFAX list] and visit some day care providers to see what works for them and what does not. I can give you more hints if you are looking to run one yourself - simply contact me privately as I don't want to bore you with info if its not needed.\n\nIf you are writing an article or doing some bona fide research - start making phone calls, but be honest enough to tell the providers what you are doing and why you are calling them. DayCare Homes have certain busy busy times - when chitchatting on the phone is a nono - and some down times when they will have time to talk. Be sure to ask if it is convenient or if you may call back.

B. Unlicensed facilities. No person or entity shall operate a Child Care Facility for more than two (2) children without a license from the Department in force, authorizing such operation. (Title 22, M.R.S.A. § 7801) \n\nThis information came from section III of this website http://nrc.uchsc.edu/STATES/ME/me_facility.htm\n\nHere is some more information from the State of Tennessee Department of Health\nhttp://nrc.uchsc.edu/STATES/TN/tennessee.htm

I am not completely sure but if you go to the mcgill classifies they always have openings in the daycare system.  If you email one of the ads about daycare I am sure that they will know more about the proper paperwork. http://www.mcgill.ca/classified/employment/

I suggest you read the book "From Babysitter to Business Owner: Getting the Most of Your Home Child Care Business" by Patricia Dischler. It has everything you need to learn how to start a babysitting business.

Do you want to be a childcare "teacher" in a day care program or a "pre-k teacher" in a more structured educational program?  To work in a day care you need a high school diploma, first aid, and other continuing education credits (some will ask for an associate's degree) but not necessarily college.  \nTo teach "pre-k" in a more structured program you will need a college degree.  In many states it is now a teacher certification area requiring state licensure and qualifies you to teach in programs like head start, pre-k, kindergarten, etc. \nLook at colleges with "early childhood education" programs.  They are usually part of the education school/ department.

I am a licensed family home daycare provider and have provided care in my home for nearly 20 years.  I personally would not hire anyone to come in to my home to provide these services since I have developed a system that works well for me, my family, and my daycare children.

Day care facilities are almost all privately owned and operated.  They aren't obliged to take in or keep any particular ADHS children.\n\nSchools, on the other hand, might have certain laws they have to follow, depending upon the state.  You should contact your state representative, whose office can either send you some material or direct you to the right department.

When we were new parents, we were looking all over for someone like you!  There's an organization in our midwest city called CCC which helps to arrange daycare.  I don't know what it stands for.\n\nAlso, run an ad in the paper, and look for ads.\n\nConsider placing a flyer with some of the local churches.  Many professional women looking to go back to work are looking for an in-home daycare worker.

It depends on the zoning regulations in your county. Before you will be given your in-home daycare occupation permit, the county will inspect your premises to see if your establishment is in compliance with the rules -- from the signage, available parking spaces for picking in and out of the children, construction of the play yard, etc.\n\nHowever, the test with zoning rules compliance is always your neighbors. Most counties have this clause in their zoning rules -\n\n"If complaints are received reporting that any County Ordinances are being violated by the day care/preschool caregiver the County will review the complaint and may revoke the Home Occupation permit."\n\nIf your neighbors complain because of the loud noise, too much cars parked, customers' cars often speeding, or for some other reason, then you may face a tough time with the zoning authorities
