| Comments: | Dear Julie, I want to thank you so very much for all the info that you have shared on your website. I have done childcare off and on in my home on a part-time basis only and also worked for a woman who had a child care center. I just moved back home to Hawaii and am at the present time a full time caregiver for a woman who is 105 years old. I fell into this because I cared for my father before he passed away and after going back to Oregon, doors just opened for me in this area. When my house sold last year and God called me back to Hawaii I sent over to Hawaii what child care equipment I had because I couldn't let it go and I had the thought that perhaps I would do it again. I have always wanted to do childcare on my own and on a full time basis, but fear held me back. Well, God has given me a vision and a purpose and I am working on opening my own child care business and also a senior care business. I am to care for two seniors and children as well. Here in Hawaii, with our culture as it is, it is a wonderful blend. I am still caring for the woman 24/6 with 12 hours off a week, until she passes on. I am beginning to get things in order in many areas of my life that I have let go by the wayside for many reasons that I won't go into. I want to so thank you for all the information that you share on your website. Thank you, thank you, thank you. You have been an immense help and an encouragement to me. Hallelu-jah!!!! He is faithful, loving, kind, merciful, just and patient, patient, patient. Aloha, Nalani H. Stanley |

| Comments: | I was actually looking at a friends website and am trying to figure out how to set one up for myself without adding any liability to myself or my children. I like your site and the fact that many of your forms are available online as well as your policies. That would save a lot of printing on my part. I also like that you have your calendar online. I would like to do something like that where parents can log-in with a password so strangers don't know what our schedule is-we do a lot of field trips. And I would like to upload pictures of the children for parents to view. You have some great idea's I teach a workshop on policies - so mine is crazy long- that and the fact that I have been doing this for over 16yrs- yikes! Anyway thanks for the information. Tambra |

| Comments: | My name is Sarah Shrum and I'm about to open my own family childcare. I'm so excited about the opportunity to work with children and be able to stay home with my 10 month old son, Logan. I absolutely LOVE your site. You seem so caring and the care you provide must be wonderful! The policies are so detailed yet they come across nice. Some of the contracts I have read seem so cold! Your site and policies are so warm and welcoming! I want my contract to sound caring yet cover the important things. I would really appreciate some ideas on how you did your Parent Contract. If it's anything like the rest of your site it must be wonderful! Would you be so kind as to send me your contract so I may get some ideas for my home day care contract? I can't tell you how much it would mean to me! You truly are a inspiration to me! Thank you so much for your time! |

| Comments: | I have been thinking about opening up a home day care myself, as I have 2 small boys and am having a hard time finding suitable childcare with vacancies. I must say, after a lot of "surfing"....your site is by far the most comprehensive that I have come across. There is nothing you have left out, everything is very thorough and it shows how much you obviously love what your doing!! Any parent would be lucky to have you provide care for their child. I love your site!!!!! Good job! |
