I have almost a year to plan so of course I am starting now
I am trying to figure out how to structure my half day preschool. I would like to do what makes the most sense, will cause the least issues and will still maximize my earning potential.

Here is what I have come up with as options. We have a point system where the younger ages are more points per child than older children:

Option A: Mon- Wed class for 3-5 year olds. Tues/ Thurs class for 2 year old.
Income Range: $2505 low/ 2,720 high

Option B: Mon- Wed Potty trained. Tues/ Thurs diapers.
Income range: $2,505 low/ 3,470 high

Option C: Mixed ages and days (Flat rate bases on 2 or 4 day/ week schedule). Mon/Wed or Tues/ Thurs or Mon- Thurs
Income range: $1,728 low/ 3,456 high

Option D: Mixed ages and days. Rate based on age/point system. Mon/ Wed or Tues/ Thurs or Mon-Thurs
Income Range: 2,000 low/ 3,279 high


I was also thinking of offering Extended Mornings as an option. The preschool will run 9am-1230pm. I was thinking of offering drop offs as early as 730 am for an additional fee. I have no idea what to charge though. I would really just like to charge a flat monthly rate in addition to the regular monthly rate.

Any advice, opinions or suggestions???

Oh my niche is preschool that accepts 2's, diapers and possibly the extended mornings.

Anyone read all of that???
