Does anyone plan on doing daycare until they retire?

I plan on doing this until I am dead or win the lottery.
Which ever comes first.

Why did you open your daycare?

Because my own DS was a rage baby and he had been kicked out of two child cares (one center/one family care) before he was a year old.

How long have you been doing daycare?

I have been in the ECE field for 25+ years but have been doing family child care for 20 yrs

How long do you plan to do daycare? Why?

Until I am dead. Because I am good at it.

I also cannot see myself working FOR someone else and not being the one in charge. Once you get that kind of control over your life/income/career, it is hard to let it go.

why did you, or will you, close?

I would consider closing if parents continue on this downward slide of allowing children to set the rules and be in charge and have zero boundaries.

However, that issue hasn't found it's way inside my child care yet (only outside so far) so I think I am good for now.
