The Name Question?

[jenboo]

My screen nAme I chose because that's who I am "aunt Tami" . My DBA name is "little sprouts childcare" I wanted something to incorporate the fact that we grow a lot of the food we eat here so it made sense! Sprouts=vegetables/gardening. I considered "tiny humans daycare" but my BF didn't like that. I thought it was funny.

Are you the little sprouts I like on fb??? Who ever is little sprouts on fb I freaking love your set up and activities!!!

[Cradle2crayons]

Gee I'm feeling original... NOT

Hmmm well obviously my screen name is my business name.

I chose it because I generally get them very young and keep them through preschool... Hence cradle to crayons hah

If i say yes does that mean I'm part of the "cool crowd"? . In reality, I am not that daycare as I don't have a FB page for my daycare.

Cradle2crayons- I personally love your name, I think it's really clever.

I'm not sure why I chose Wednesday. I like names that are unique, like a day of the week or a month of the year. I know someone named August and someone else named Tuesdy. There is no "a" in Tuesdy on purpose.

My business name is Owl's Nest Nursery & Preschool. The Owl is a memorial for a baby who passed away of SIDS. He was Native American and mom told me that owls are the protectors of spirits. I liked Nest because it signified a nurturing, safe environment that children will eventually leave when they outgrow it. I used Nursery & Preschool to indicate that i only take children under school age. I never get calls for school age kids.

I am Mother's Choice Preschool
I am very particular about cleanliness, organic cooking,individual attention, education, fun activities and such so if I were to pick a daycare it would be like mine so that's how I came up with my business name
I think I remember another thread about this

[Butter Biskets]

How did you all come up with your business names and screen names?

I am curious. My favorite screen names are CrazyDaycareLady, Dilley Beans & Monkey Toes?

When I first came to this site I just knew NannyDe’s first name was Deanne or Denise. I figured she was or use to be a nanny. A year later I learned her name is not Deanne or Denise...

My daycare is just called *****'s Dayhome, but whenever I am talking to my kids I always say "Let's go Monkey Toes!" I want to change my dayhome name to Monkey Toes Dayhome, but I have already had window signs made with the other name. . So that will have to wait.

Thank you btw for liking my screen name!! I just had it changed to that last week.

My first child care name was Amy's A+ Child Care because the first children I had enrolled were Andy, Amalia, Autumn, A.J. April, and Katie (she was the "plus").

When we moved to Appleton I had a list of names to choose from and DH said "Amy & Kids Co." I liked it because it started with A (alphabetical advantage) and described what I'm about - me and the kids.

Since then I've learned that "kids" is a naughty 4-letter word in early childhood (they're children, not baby goats, dontcha know : It's too late to change it, but I personally don't freak out about kids/children unless I'm trying to be ultra-professional.

I like your name. I think it sounds professional

Guess I'm unimaginative. Mine's just my name & my dba is just my last name + Family Child Care. I originally wanted to do "Dave's Daycare" but the person from the local R&R talked me out of it- said it would be a problem with marketing my business.

Love all the backstories to these names!happyface

I wanted to name my business Snot ‘R’ Us.

I LOVE THIS!!!

My screen name is what people say about me...., I'm confident. My g'son says I'm the coolest mimi out there. Ive got him fooled! ::

On a side note, my friends all call me sly. I think I did something shady when I was 12 & it stuck.

You and I seem to be the only ones. I thought it was a humorous spin.

I like Sly. I am wondering what you did!

Only friends know for sure, . It's even on my FB. My daycare life is much different than my real life. Mary Poppins doesn't live here.

I think your day care name is lovely.

And your screen name always makes me think of the Adam's family

My screen name is sort of the story of my life ::

My daycare name is what I have always called the children I care for "little friends"

Thank you! And it makes me think of their Wednesday too. I had a jet black ****er spaniel named Wednesday also.

I love your screen name. It reminds me of my own life story.
