How Do You Start A Daycare Facility?
The demand for day care services is steadily increasing, according to the Small Business Administration (SBA). People who enjoy providing a stimulating environment for young children, usually under age six, may be interested in opening a day care center. States create specific requirements for these organizations to ensure the safety of young children. Meeting your state’s licensing requirements will assist in opening a day care business. Request an application packet from your state department of licensing. This packet will have information about the daycare licensing process and special requirements, such as passing a background check and attending a state childcare course. Complete the application and return to the address listed on materials. Attend a day care course. Ask the state department of licensing for times and location of courses (if required by your state). Courses typically focus on state day care laws, child abuse prevention and reporting requirements. Learn about space
