    State license, inspection of the building and approval. There are books of laws and rules from the type of equipment, to the type of food prep equpment needed and how much staff has to be on hand per child by age, and education levels needed on staff and areas needed to separate children and so much more.

    I will assume you have worked in the industry and know most of the rules and laws.

    You need to write up a detailed business plan, check into the zoning, local and state licenses needed. And of course liability insurance

    Proper location and government license are some of the most important issues
