Where childcare success is right at home!
I recently had a reader leave a comment asking for advice. Here is what she said; Advice to a New Childcare Provider

What does Professional Development for Providers look like? Is that something you think about? Do you think it is important for the growth of your business?

Aside from your contract, your child care handbook is one of the most important documents you should have when you start your child care. Why do I say that? Is a child care handbook really necessary? Glad you asked!
You know sometimes a provider can really feel all alone. Even though we love our job, we are couped up with kids all day, at home all week and the only adults we seem to interact with are our parent clients.
