Question for childcare providers

[hannahi]

I've thought about offering drop-in babysitting at my house. My 2 y.o. son still takes a nap after lunch. He usually either falls asleep in the stroller while we're out for a walk or I nurse him to sleep on the sofa or in the family bed. So I'm just wondering if it would be worthwhile to try to get him to nap on a cot at home. Or maybe I could just offer half-days of childcare and work around his nap.

Thanks for any advice!

I've done childcare for almost three years and to actually make money doing it, you generally have to work your kids' schedule around the babysitting kids, not the other way around. Especially when you're offering drop-in or part-time, flexibility is a big key to getting clients.
