Start Your Own at Home Child Care Business, 1e
In the five years since Karen Murphy's A House Full of Children ( LJ 2/15/84) was published, the need for day care has increased along with the attention paid to improving its quality. Gallagher , a former corporate executive who now runs a successful day care facility from her home, makes an excellent contribution with this manual for starting a day care home. The business aspects, including licensing, insurance, finances, and advertising, are treated thoroughly, and the book has a useful collection of sample forms and resources. Sections on health, safety, and problem-solving, as well as substantial material on daily activities for children, make this book essential for care providers.
