Make $1,500+ with Valentine's Day Daycare

Imagine making over $1,500 in just one day with only a few hours of preparation. Is it possible? Yes, it is, and I will show you how. Valentines Day Daycare is in huge demand- why? Because for one day of the year, romance is publicly celebrated, and parents of all ethnicities, religions, and ages want to be sans children for this day alone. If you are energetic and have a couple friends to help you out, you can set up a Valentines Day Daycare. Here's how:

Step 1: Prepare

Before having any children in your house, make sure your home is safe for children to play in. Consider baby proofing your home, and make sure all chemicals and kitchen utensils are out of reach of children. Also, consider getting some CPR and first-aid training. Putting your training and certification on advertising flyers will get you drastically more business. Keep in mind that some states require licenses for in-home childcares, so make sure you follow all government regulations.

Plan on running two shifts of Valentines Day Daycare: one Daytime shift (8 am to 5 pm) and one nighttime shift (5:30 pm to 1 am). If you schedule two shifts, kids will be picked up and dropped off around the same time so things won't get too hectic. If you don't schedule shifts, parents will be dropping kids off during all ours of the day, causing a big mess. Some parents will sign their kids up for both shifts, and others will only sign their kids up for one.

Figure out how many kid's you'll take on for each shift- 5? 10? 20? Remember, the more kids you care fore, the more money you'll make, but also keep in mind that having too many kids could be a disaster for your house and your sanity.

Also, recruit a couple responsible friends to help you run your one-day daycare, and promise them some of the profit.

Step 2: Advertise:

Print up flyers, post ads on the Internet, and get a classified ad in the local paper for your one-day day care. Also, state your price on all ads. On holidays such as Valentines Day, you can get away with charging $8-$15 per hour per child, depending on how wealthy your neighborhood is.

Step 3: Decide on Entertainment.
