A little confused

[Tweety]

Hey y'all I'm new here. I am currently a lead teacher for a daycare. I have 7 years of experience as a Pre-k teacher and have recently decided it's time I start my own business. Now I really don't want to run a home daycare as like my home a certain way. But am interested in prehaps a center idk I'm so confused on where to start and what the cost may be in running opening a center I live in Houston Tx I'mwondering if i could have a hme based center a location I don't live at or maybe just rent a building idk I'd love to hear ideas suggestionsand from those that may own a center, those with a home daycare I'd to hear you opinions as well........thanks

You may want to read the regulations for opening a child care center verses the regulations for opening an in-home child care.
