I am legally unlicensed in my state and can have up to 4 children in care. I follow all licensing standards and like the previous poster said- i just dont have regular inspections.

I charge a competitive rate but it is slightly above the average for the county. The average is $125 and I charge $140. I used to be of the mentality as well that since I was unlicensed I didnt get to charge what I wanted or have a contract/handbook. But I quickly realized that I am still a legal business and I should be charging what I want and have the policies that I want. So I do now and I feel people see me in a more professional light.
