ABOUT THE BOOK If you're a new parent (or just new to looking for child care), the many options and choices available can be overwhelming. Most people think of a daycare facility when the concept of childcare is considered, but there are actually many other options, including ones you probably never knew existed. Child care can generally be divided into two broad categories: care in your own home by a provider or care in an outside facility. Within each of these lie a number of choices. Care in your home can be provided by anyone from a family member to a live-in nanny to a part-time babysitter. Outside care choices include small home day cares and large centers. The costs and services vary from provider to provider. Arranging for child care when you can't be there is not only a practical issue, but an emotional one too. The decision to leave your child with someone else is a tough one that many parents struggle with. They want to make sure they choose the best care for their child - one that provides a safe, stimulating, comfortable environment in which the child will thrive and learn. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK As children grow, they may be more active and require more care than a family member is able to provide. If you choose a family member for care, be sure to set a timeframe in advance so that you know what to expect, and plan on looking for alternative care when the child is older. Another potential problem with in-home care by a family member is that the person may not provide the kind of care you desire. Just being family doesn't guarantee that the person is good at caring for your children. If there are significant differences between your values and expectations - such as how much television you want your child to watch, what type of activities to do, and how discipline is handled - it may be best to consider a different type of arrangement. A final, more practical problem is that if you will still need backup care. If your family member is sick or traveling, you'll have to find alternate arrangements. Be sure to have a backup plan in place. Another option for in home care is a nanny. The benefits of hiring a nanny are the same for other in-home care. Transitions are easier, and the children may feel more comfortable in their own home... Buy a copy to keep reading!

There has been for many years (and still are) a need for Day Care providers throughout the world. Many who attempt to baby-sit or get into Child Care know children very well, but have difficulty in succeeding. Usually they run into problems that they can not handle, which generally is not with the children. They start to lose money, become discouraged and slowly weed themselves out of Child Care. This manual takes a different approach to the operation of a Day Care. "She didn't pay me this week, how do I get my money?" "I thought the child was coming here every day, but she only came three days this week. What could I have done?" "Mrs. Taylor has to work New Years Day. All my other clients are off. Should I provide Child Care for her on that day?" Miss Ellen has the answers to these questions and many more. She walks you through the difficult times and how to handle most problems before they happen. Included are chapters on how to get started, drawing up a contract and why, as well as record keeping, bartering, insurance and finally a question and answer chapter.
The idea of transitioning from babysitting to caring for children professionally as a home daycare provider can be intimidating.

Miko offers mentoring advice from knowledge she has gained through experience or from watching her colleagues.
