Daycare Questions and Answers

I get e-mail submissions on a daily basis on DaycareAnswers and I have a Daycare Provider Facebook of over 6,000 daycare providers.  This page is a compilation of questions I see and hear over and over again.

Thank You To Our Visitors!

Some of you have taken the time to let us know how much your like our site. We appreciate your comments!


From Summer:
Just wanted to say that I LOVE your site! Very helpful and informative. From one daycare provider to another, keep up the great work! :)


From Kania:
Just wanted to drop you a line and let you know that your website really helped me today. I am a daycare provider and have had the daycare in my home for almost 1 year and I am already facing burnout. Most of the problem is the issue of my 5-year-old daughter-the naughtiest one in my daycare. Your article on this subject gave me some further ideas to try and gave me hope that there is light at the end of the tunnel. Thanks.


From Camelita:
This site is so awesome! I just wanted to let you know how helpful all of your advice and paperwork has been in restarting my home daycare. I've been wanting to do the family style care, but everyone around here seems to be doing the more preschool type and I thought that I was going to have to go with the flow. After visiting your site I realize that I can do it the way I want without feeling like I'm sacrificing something.
Thank you for your help and for this site.


From Adron:
What a great website. I wish I could have had access to you seven years ago. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!


From Kim:
I just wanted to say thank you for the great website! I started ahome daycare about 3 months ago, and couldn't figure out why my 3 year old was "the naughty kid" in the home. So I searched the web and came across your site. Not only did it answer my questions, it gave me a lot of tips and suggestions. Thank you again. Your site is now saved in my favorites on the computer.
