So you can see from a home providers viewpoint that what you get per child per hour is a large portion if not all of what a home provider gets for 2/3 or all of a full ten hour day five days a week?
See why adding expectations of adding education to care for very close to the same amount of dollars total just doesn't work?
It won't work in a Center where they are making four dollars an hour per kid. It won't work in a home day care where they are making three or less per hour.
So do you do breakfast or lunch or just a mid session snack?
