    Care 4 Days a Week

    I'm considering providing childcare only Monday through Thursday so i can have a day to work in my kids classroom and keep up with other house and child needs. Does anyone else do this? Have you found people who need this care or do most need full time, 5 days a week?

      I have three families that are Tues-Fri so it is possible to find families with a 4 day per week schedule. Here it's much more likely they will have Monday off than Friday though.

          I'm closed on Wednesdays so I can help in my 2 DD's rooms at school. Having been a teacher for 11 years, I know how important parent help is. Plus my girls get out an hour and a half earlier on Wednesdays so we have the afternoon together.

            I think you can make it work provided you have the flexibility to wait for the right families. You might also consider two or three day a week part timers and sort of piece together enough income with that.
