I've had these same thoughts over the years and every time I run the numbers it wouldn't be worth it until I had at least 40 kids. Running a center with 40 plus kids is soooo much more work and such a bigger gamble than what I currently do. And if you're talking about catering to infants you have to have a lot more staff.

I did love running a center when I was a director but at this point in my life I personally couldn't take the risk plus extra work.

I'm definitely not trying to talk you out of it, but it's simple to run some rough numbers. See if it might work for you.
