I had in home daycare in the past, and took any family that wanted to use me. I had high turnover.

I now have in home daycare, and in a year have had low enrollment. I have one re-enrollment and one new boy who will be temporary start in a couple of days. The difference? I have policies and will not change them. I had no policies the first time and got walked all over. I am now hanging in there this time, as I know word of mouth will be my friend. I just need the right families to sign up. Give it time, I have given it a year and am just now feeling like maybe I am getting somewhere. It has been a long road, but I won't change my program for a few bucks.
