My name is Tontolayo Gooch and i am trying to start my own child care in my home.I have more then 10 years of experience working with children.I consider myself a professional teacher, performing my duties with the utmost efficiency and abilities to help children learn in a fun environment.My goals for our children are to infuse them with tremendous motivation and to install in them an appetite for learning.
Dear TONTOLAYO,
Starting a childcare is pretty much like starting any small business. Your job will be to take of children. How do you do this? First of all you will need to register your business, even if you do it from your home. You can find more about your state licensing rules.
If you need funding, you can start by taking a look at the small business programs available and see if you can benefit from one of them.
We hope it helped!

My goal is to start up the business then expand world wide there by creating a global benefit by #(1) A reduction in dependency on foreign oil by the reduced consumption, #(2) A positive global impact on the economy by creating jobs nationely and world wide and equally as important as the two prior, #(3) significantly reducing green house gasses and air pollution due to less burning of fossil fuels. I have developed mechanical skills that I have used off and on over the past thirty years which has led me to more than double the fuel milage on an older (1978) full sized four wheel drive vehicle.
