[quote=Anonymous]I ruled out solo providers. We used a home daycare that had 2 full-time care providers (owner and her assistant) and 6 kids, and the providers had been providing daycare together for 20 years. Do you have infant care experience other than your own child? Your background makes this sound like a good setting for 18 mos+, but less so infants. I'm also not sure how I would feel about a provider who also has their own child around. Who will care for her when she is sick and can't be around the other kids? And I am definitely not okay with a provider taking the kids along to run errands. If you want to drop a letter in the mailbox while on the way to the park, that's fine, but nothing requiring driving and no dragging them along while you shop. It doesn't sound like you're seeing this as a job, but rather as having a few extra kids around while being a SAHP.[/quote]
