Stay at home mom in so cal...need some extra cash, thinking about babysitting?

Question

i was just wondering if you need a license to watch 2-3 infants in your home day or night, and if so, how to go about doing that.also, how much is the average to charge?

Answer 1

I came across this blog on home based business opportunities.  I almost did open up a daycare here in California.  But when I found out from other daycare providers what was involved and the things they had to go through, I went into something else.

I did find that if the children are from the same family, you don't have to have a license.  But you should anyway.  There's a segment on this blog on daycare as a home based business.  You might want to take a look at it.  It may help you out with other questions you may have.  A friend of mine's mother has had her daycare for over 30 years now.  She charges $50 per child a day, with a discount for siblings. She is licensend for 14.  So there is some income involved in this.  But a lot of expenses to dish out to as well.  Anyhow, here is the blog to get the information on child daycare center.

Try Ebay!

You certainly cannot miss that!

I have just found out this guy made over $1500+ in just 1 PURE day in his Paypal account from Ebay in 22 June 2008 which wowed me!

You can check out this guy's amazing Paypal proof account here (which I am sure you have seen or heard of provided you have used Ebay before):

(Paypal screenshot - $1500+ in 1 day as of 22 June 2008)

It's pretty inspiring about how he has been sucessful getting the Ebay wholesaler sources considering it's only less than 20 transaction and the website stated on the screenshot which is the success method as far as it is concerned.

It definately motivates me and inspires me and I am going for my goal like the guy does!

Hope that helps answering your question.

Cheers
