I am so confused. I am a stay at home mom and I want to start watching children in my home. I want to make sure I follow all of the laws and everything but I don't want to get licensed yet. I am in Iowa. Do I have to register with the state to do this? If I have less than 5 kids I am license exempt correct? How do I got about doing taxes, do I just save all receipts and figure it out during tax time? Can I except state pay when I am unlicensed? If I don't have to register with the state do I have register to except state pay? Please help, I am confused and online searches aren't helping me much. Thanks!
