Evening And Weekend Child Care
 
Hi everyone I am interested in opening a evening and night child care with no day hours. What are some tip you would advice for odd hour childcare. I am also wondering what the daily or shall I say night schedule should consist of.

I do parents night out. You can get an idea of it from my blog. www.everydayonpurpose.com
Let me know if I can help you out.

Do you have any idea of what hours you would be willing to do? It really depends on when you daycare starts, if you plan to offer meals included, what your "bedtime" for the kids will be, how many kids can you accommodate, when will you stop letting parents drop off, when must they pick up by....lots of stuff for you to consider! If you have a lot of shift jobs in your area, you can do it by the shift hours that are common for parents in your area. For example, the hospital staff here works 7 to 7 so if I was to do overnight care, I would open at 6pm and close at 8am and figure out my rates based on that time.
