Supply and demand pressures on daycare facilities have pushed prices up over the last generation. With more parents working multiple jobs and the rise of the single-parent households, the need for affordable and safe childcare is sure to increase. If you have experience in helping meet the needs of children, consider starting your own childcare facility. There are several steps to starting a non-profit daycare that avoid the shackles of trying to generate larger profits. Be aware, however, that as altruistic as this is, it is not without its challenges. Even though operating a non-profit daycare is a noble pursuit, you should organize the company in a way that fits your lifestyle and provides a steady stream of clients.
