[quote=Anonymous]Have you used an in home daycare? Have your friends?

The going rate in Arlington is $350-450 a week and includes lunch and snacks for kids over age 1. They start at 7-8am and pick up is 5-6pm. They are open every day except Federal holidays and 1 week vacation. They have a yard / outdoor space. I did sign permission for stroller walks around the neighborhood. In my neighborhood it is common to have them in the lower walk-out level of a split level. You need a play room, a room with cribs, and a room with a table and highchairs.

I would not place my kid with a parent who will favor her own kid. I would not have my kid on a condo building with elevators until the pandemic is clearly over. I would never have an in home provider driving my kid places.

When will you take your kid to the doctor?
What will other parents do if your kid gets sick? 
You will basically have 0 vacation days. 
You can’t just stop this arrangement when you get tired of it - where will your clients find childcare on short notice? 
Caring for multiple babies, especially not your own, is very difficult and you sound really unprepared.
