Looking to start a night time care biz for people just like me. I have tried to get a job and each place will hire me but finding day care open late is the biggest problem. Also weekends.
We need funding or a backer for this project. I have a partner. She came to me frustrated about will for day care and wanted her own biz. I said no until yesterday when again I was offered a job I could not take.
Please contact us!

I suggest contacting businesses in your area that employ night shift workers for funding.

Based on your area code you are in Philly - I would contact NJAWBO (Nw Jersey Assoc of Women business Owners) they will be able to provide you with a lot of information. Go to some events and you will make a lot of networking contacts.

Before you get funding you will need a business plan no one is going to back a project without that. You also need licensing in most states to run a day care, you will need to look into what is needed for that. Don't forget insurance. You also have to register with the state and create a legal entity.

This is another place NJAWBO can help they will provide you with what you need to start a business. Its a lot more then an idea. I'm not trying to scare you I'm just trying to make sure you know how much goes into it.

Thanks! This would not be my first biz. I had an award winning toy store for ten years. This time I am looking for funding or a backer.
My ex worker came ot me wanting help to start a day care. I just changed it to a night care instead.
Basically I want to help her and also help myself with my problems at same time.
I need this day care so I can do what I woudl like to do.
Nothing will scare me at this point. I have beenat tehtop and at the very bottom. If I did not need this for myself I woud never do a biz again. But I realized after my 5th to 6th job offer I coudlnto take that I needed to do something.
