I dont have a home daycare but I homeschool my 6 kids and my house is small so Im looking for ideas to set up our learning space. I like your video.

[@melissavanhoof2665]

Im a Preschool Teacher but i really enjoyed watching your video. The space is amazing you have done great with it! Love how organized you are!

[@danaswann639]

Thank you posting! My sister is starting a daycare in our home. It’s almost complete and nearly state licensed (by the end of the month!) we are using the space in our downstairs apartment which is not huge huge. So I’m glad to see someone who has a very well organized, minimal, clean space. I see sooo much clutter in other home daycares. This really helped give me more ideas on how to organize and store, which is what I’m working on now. Thank you.

What a cute set up! I recently got the same system from IKEA for my daycare, I love how easy it is for the kid to grab a bin and go. That Eat - Sleep - play sign is the cutest!

[@silh7605]

I love the structure of your daycare. The meal organization and the fact that you encourage your kids to eat at the regular table and practice regular cups.

I am a Military Spouse and I have worked in different military childcare centers on and off for a few years. I am now starting my at home daycare since we now have two children, a 3 year old and a 3 month old. This video has helped with much of the anxiety I have had about my space since it has to be in our main living space.

[@heathermartinez539]

This makes me want to show my space! Totally subscribing for more of your videos. Also, I’m in Corpus and it’s nice seeing someone else from Texas!

Omg thank you so much. I'm trying to wrap my mind around all this. I want to start the process.

Thank u for all the great ideas. I love how organized u r. The puzzle idea was great.

[@cindywineinger3631]

I have a licensed home daycare in Indiana for 28 years. I am at full capacity of 10. Your daycare is set up very nicely and organized. We are no longer allowed to use gates and I had the same roll away gate as yours for my kitchen entrance and the entryway. Licensing said we can't use them because children cannot get out on their own in an emergency. However, we can use swing gates that tear up the walls! I use online communication called "Daily Connect" with my parents. It's nice to log all their activities, what they need, sign in and out etc. Once the child is signed out for the day the parents receive an email. Very low cost at $9.99 a month.

[@mommytomany5674]

Cindy Wineinger I don’t know how I would survive without my gate! It’s literally the only thing that allows me to prepare meals without 6 bodies under my feet. Bless you!!!

[@em1241]

Cindy: How does one go about getting a license? I'm really interested but don't know where to seek these information and what do do. Thanks in advance!!! Hope to hear from you. :)

[@cindywineinger3631]

@@em1241 Each state has different requirements and process. Here are two links that will give you the necessary information. I have been licensed for 18 years and in the daycare business for 28 so I'm sure requirements have changed. This will give you the most recent requirements. I'll be happy to help you anyway I can if your located in Indiana. www.in.gov/fssa/carefinder/2736.htm www.in.gov/fssa/carefinder/3062.htm

[@melindabanning7707]

Licensing seems to have nothing better to do than to keep making rules and regulations I gets kind of frustrating bless you for making do without gates. In Kansas we are not allowed to let an infant follow sleep in a baby swing or carrier anything other than their pack and play and that’s crazy enough.

[@cindywineinger3631]

@@melindabanning7707 We can not allow them to sleep anywhere else besides a pack n play too. I do have one swing gate for my kitchen. We are allowed swing gates just not pressure gates or ones that they can not open. However, they are trained not to go past the stop sign and do pretty well with that.

[@melindabanning7707]

Thanks for being so complete and showing everything. I am a provider and we are fixing up one room to house the toy room. I have two cabinets in there to house a whole lot of stuff. Right now I have under two so putting things up out of the way is essential for my sanity.

[@sandiaandco]

This was very helpful! Stop excusing yourself you are more than fine!!! This was so informative. I will be starting a home daycare once I get settled into our new house. But I feel some what even more prepared watching these videos 😁 Thank you!

I love how detailed this video was. I’m taking a Child Development class in which I have to make a 3-D model of an infant/toddler educational environment & I have been watching a few daycare tour videos, but this one has been the most helpful to get an idea of how to organize my miniature furniture & decor!

I use to work in a daycare for 25 yrs I loved it I had my own classroom and had 12 childern some 3 yr olds that still where not potty trained, I would have a changing chart of all the times they when potty for parents to look at, and a good job sticker board for going potty , now the ones that had a pull-up I would write the time I change them on it, just because sometimes the parent wanted to know. I would make daily reports for parents to take home to know how there child’s day was and what we did, along with an art book to look at and take home, it was beautiful to see how you fixed your home for this angels. Loved your ideas.

[@Clarissedurosaire]

hey I'm in NC too was it difficult to get approved for the license ?

[@marilynphan277]

The home daycare room looks really nice, the only thing I was suggest is to cover up your socket holes because you don't want the kids to stick something in there and get electric shock. I work at a elementary school and those always had to be covered up for the kids safety.

You have sooo much stuff (that are good)....my little ones would have them off of the wall. We get inspected twice a year by State and once by City Sanitation. You transformed and share your personal space....whoa! If I was to have 6 children under 5 yrs I would be cited and need to get rid of the other one child.😯 I'm in City limits and on a 16000sqft and can only have 5 full time. The state would allow for more if the sq ft was over. Not moving anytime soon. Have had daycare for 12 yrs.

I will be a licensed daycare provider soon. But in a different country. I don't even have as much room as you have. I don't have kids on my own just yet and kinda just have a 2 room apartment (kinda new too and still working on organizing). One room will be for sleeping (including my own bed) and it will get a kitchen as well. And one room for playing and also will contain a table were we can eat and do table activities... and kinda function as my own living room as well... In my country you get only a license for a maximum of 5 kids and I plan on getting 5 daycare kids... then I'll be able to save up some money to get a bigger apartment...

It was great to come upon your video this evening! I have a licensed home daycare in Ontario Canada. I started in November but have done daycare before in a different house not licensed. I can have up to 6 kids at one time. There is a certain number of kids at a certain age of course. My daughter is 3 and is counted in the ratio however my son who is 8 is not because he is older and at school. I think your daycare is great. You are very organized and have given me some wonderful ideas. Now i want to go and organize mine in a different way. I have a lot more space but honestly I like the space you have and I feel from what I saw that it doesn't look small to me. I am an Early childhood Educator and have worked in centres also.

I’m in Australia and we are called family day care, love your video love seeing what other providers do but it’s very different to what I have to do.

[@mommytomany5674]

Oh I would love to hear the differences! It's so interesting that a lot of us do essentially the same job, but the regulations are SO different!

[@TheQuietShelf_xo]

Yes that why I love watching other day care providers. I’m only allowed 4 children under school age and 3 school aged children but I have to include my own child I have a 13yr and a 10yr so I can only have 1 school ages child. I have a lot of rules that I have to follow and we have to do monthly observations of each child per month and of course planning and programming and we have to link it all together with codes and outcomes (that’s what we call them). I have a good set up I use the whole down stairs of our home and we have just put a kitchen in so I can supply food (not a lot of providers supply food). I have a Instagram page @Family_daycare_mum if you want to have a look at food and activities I do. I don’t show and of the children’s faces or anything like that!
