[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] How are you going to transport all these non-walking kids to the park on your own? Seems dangerous.[/quote]

Probably would only work with slightly older kids who can walk. I live very close to a park so that would be easy to get to.  Driving— I already have another kid ( who would be gone at K during the day) so would only need to add one more car seat to the mix.  Double stroller (with my  baby strapped to me) would work for walking to the park. [/quote]

Your car seat for your K is not likely to fit your charges.  Lots of parents also wouldn't be comfortable with you driving.

What you are describing sounds more like a very informal, likely off the books arrangement that some parents might be willing to do if cheap enough.  It doesn't really sounds like a licensed daycare operation.

How much do you think you would need to charge to make it worth your while?[/quote]

Forget the driving then, lol I’m sure no activities will be open next year to drive to anyhow. Honestly doubt I would have any trouble finding two kids to watch as I already have friends (and friends of friends) that are struggling with finding care or are unhappy with their center.  I’m more interested in finding out if it is legal to run an in-home out of a second home. But clearly I need to call Arlington to figure that out!

Was still worth it posting here because didn’t think at all about checking with HOA first. Obviously that is the first step!

Wait, what kind of activities were you thinking of driving them to?  I thought you were just talking about the park close by?  It would be pretty unusual to have field trips, and I am not sure that would really be viewed as a plus.

It sounds like you really haven't spent much time thinking this through.  It might be a good idea, but you have a lot of things you need to think through/work out beyond just condo rules.[/quote]
