The number of working parentsincluding single-parent families and families with both parents employedis climbing, creating an ever-growing need for quality child care. That need is creating a tremendous entrepreneurial opportunity for people who love children and want to build a business caring for them. Child-care services range from small homebased operations to large, commercial centers and can be started with an investment of as little as a few hundred dollars. You can stay very small, essentially just creating a job for yourself, or you can grow into a substantial enterprise with potentially millions of dollars a year in revenue. You also have a tremendous amount of flexibility when it comes to the exact services you choose to offer. You may limit your clientele to children in certain age groups or tailor your operating hours to meet the needs of a particular market segment. You may or may not want to provide transportation between your center and the children's homes and/or schools. You may want to take the children on field trips. As an alternative to child care, you may want to consider a business that focuses solely on providing transportation for children.

Extractions: ATLANTA, April 19, 1999 Ask working parents to name the most important decision they've made about their child's welfare, and one answer will surface time and again: Choosing a quality child care provider. Licensed child care providers are working to ensure parents are asking the right questions and using the right criteria to select quality care for their children. During Week of the Young Child, the National Child Care Association (NCCA) and its member organizations are encouraging the 25 million working parents whose children need care during working hours to carefully review their options when choosing their child care arrangement. Licensing guidelines and regulations ensure that child care programs including center-based care can provide a safe and high-quality environment and better experiences for children. "We believe that Week of the Young Child is a time for everyone concerned about the issue of preschool and child care to reflect on the needs of our young children play and education in a safe, nurturing environment," said Lynn White, NCCA executive director. "Our membership of licensed private child care and preschool centers is committed to educating parents and community leaders about the importance of high-quality, affordable, licensed child care."

http://www.opm.gov/wrkfam/childcare.asp

Extractions: Resources ... Web Sites Final regulations are posted in the Federal Register . These regulations are being posted since Congress has made the law that provides for child care subsidies permanent. Federal families utilize a number of different child care options that include both alternative work arrangements and non-parental child care. Federal personnel policies include leave policies and flexible work schedules to help employees with their child care responsibilities. Employees might choose one option at one point in their career, and another option at a different point. The policies are designed to give Federal employees the flexibilities they need to manage personal and professional responsibilities. To help make child care more affordable for lower income Federal employees, Public Law 107-67 was enacted on November 12, 2001. The law permits agencies in the executive branch of government to assist lower income employees with their child care costs. For more information about implementation of this law, go to: Guide for Implementing Child Care Legislation That Law permits agencies to spend appropriated funds, including revolving funds otherwise available for salaries, to assist lower income employees with the costs of child care. Check with your individual agency to see if they are offering a child care subsidy program. If you meet the Department's eligibility criteria, your child care costs might be REDUCED!
