I was just curious how many kids you all watch, particularly in home providers. I am licensed to watch up to 6 kids, and I’ve had 6 kids in attendance all summer with 3 going to school this year, so now I’m down to 3, some of which are part time. I wouldn’t mind taking on 1 more to put me at 4. To me anything over that is overwhelming. I would be ok financially but I get the feeling parents don’t like it unless I have a house full of kids. They seem to think more kids equals more fun for their child but I don’t see it that way. Does anyone else keep their attendance under what is allowed? I think I’m leaning towards having a smaller group.
