Год выпуска: 1995 Автор: Patricia C. Gallagher Издательство: Mosby Страниц: 134 ISBN: 0943135087 Описание A reprise of a 1989 Doubleday imprint, with expansions and revisions to include up-to-date information for anyone considering at-home child care as a business. In fact, that's the focus of Gallagher's first three chapters: to assess whether one has the patience, stamina, and other aptitudes, and to set up appropriate forms, standards, and rules. Much of her book is devoted to creative ideas, from 25 sample daily activity plans to 15 craft recipes and a wealth of play and learning activities. Tips, sidebars, and sample forms help a fledgling caregiver prioritize the business start-up, while psychological advice--dealing with behavior problems, late-paying parents, and so forth--gives a commonsense grounding to those who might think kids are all play and no work. Appended are current state child-care licensing offices, child-care organizations, and other sources of help. Barbara Jacobs |
