1. the Licence and the legality-in the first step you'll want to take is learning about your laws of individual States on home care. Health codes, zoning laws, liability insurance, the required certification, taxes ... just to name a few. Even in the event that your business is also the renewal of the creation, after recovering, you might want to clean up ... remember, laws have been changed.
2. research competition-call around the various day care centres, as well as home care providers and ask questions. Check rates, directions, hours, how can cope, payments, sick kids, and behavior problems. The more you know about what other providers offer, the better you will know the expectations of parents and will be able to prepare your business.
3. Educate yourself-Take the local class. Subscribe to magazines, child care, or visit the library and read the last few copies. Log on to several e-zines and e-newsletters to receive information about nursery tips and trends, as well as the General report on the children-their behavior, health, and the latest scientific research. Some of the information is timeless, but new developments in care for children appear every day. Be knowledgeable and up-to-date on these changes to problems.
4. Resistant home-regardless of the age of children, care for the child at home, you can't have too many. Invest in the Cabinet and drawer locks, secure gateway to the top of the stairs or the room you want to block. Put away all fragile items and booking green thumb for outdoor or potted plants put on a high shelf, which are not achievable, even in the case that the older child stands on a kitchen Chair. Cover sharp corners on the tables, furniture, or fire and safe fireplace openings. Lock all safe food and beverages. Light the candles. Put away the perfumes or sprays. Keep the outlet is connected and cords inaccessible. Maintain the floor as free as you can to take mushrooms together or other objects children inevitably find and into his mouth. These things may seem obvious, but are often overlooked.
5. policies and procedures-if you can, put your hands on a few contracts from local nursery and see how they are worded. Decide which of these policies must be implemented. Some important things to cover includes the same things I survey. Rates, payment options, how much it will charge for late pick-up, behavior issues, and their policies on sick children and last interference. Remember to require two or more emergency contacts, as well as the complete medical information, including food allergies or concerns. Have several providers of trusted and experienced the daily care, look over your contract before you implement to make sure there are no loop holes and that everything is covered.
6. Advertise-of course, word of mouth is the best advertising. Make sure that parents have a reason to recommend to their friends and family. With a short paragraph describing your credentials and have the answer, which is ready for when parents ask, why would they hire. Check in ads in local newspapers, your church BULLETIN BOARD, or on the list of Craig (www.craigslist.com). Also post advertisements in the places where the parents live with their children: in a park, zoo, your local YMCA or town library.
Now covering a large part of the planning and preparation to start his own business, child care, it's time to work!
