I bought a separate home strictly for childcare. It is centrally located in town just a few blocks from the elementary school. It is zoned residential since daycare isn't considered commercial. I live 7 miles out of town and come in everyday for work. No one lives here and I pay non-homesteaded property taxes. No one is here over the weekend or in the evenings, heck we don't even have adult sized furniture here. Works out great for me. I honestly wouldn't do it any other way. My kids came to "work" with me everyday when they were young and when they got old enough, they went home after school. Makes boundaries about early drop off and late pick ups a little easier for me. Also when I am closed I don't have to even think about daycare.
