How To Open A Tiny Daycare Center In A Church?

Starting a Christian Day Care requires licensing and a working business plan, which may vary by state. To be successful, it is essential to align with a church, secure loans, grants, and fundraising, and develop a marketing strategy. A mission statement should outline the center’s philosophy and values, and a simple website should be created. Starting small with one class and addressing any issues will help the center grow. The method of enlisting volunteers should be determined, whether it be through recruitment, requiring all capable church members to serve, or a rotation among parents. Providing exceptional early childhood education and care is crucial for community building and a more equitable future. A demographic study should be completed to determine if the area supports another child care center and consider the local market. Information and guidelines can help establish a quality child care service in your church. The law allows for the Church to run a paid day care service as an exemption to the “Unrelated Business Income” filing requirements.
