I've never used Turbo Tax but I've used the HR Block program, and when you follow the instructions and choose the home daycare option for your home office, the program automatically divides out your TS% of the allowable deductions and places the remainder on the 1040 form.

I know all tax programs are different, but look for an option that states your home office is a home daycare and maybe it will place the appropriate (divided) amounts in the proper place. It can be hard to use these programs unless you're very familiar with how the deductions for home daycare are supposed to work. It took me a long time to be really certain the HR Block program was doing it correctly.
