...Until I get my State License! My licensing specialist called me yesterday to tell me that they received my application, they have processed our background checks as well as the rest of the paper work I had to send in, and she is ready to inspect my house!
I have the checklist for the licensing inspection. It is 14 pages long! She said it is going to take about 2.5 hours! At least I know what to expect though.
I'm so ready for this inspection and to finally get my license. I have been working for this for awhile now. We have hit more bumps in the road than intended, so it feels good that this process is finally coming to an end.
I have been trying to find kids to watch for the last month with no luck thus far, but I'm confident that once I get my State License it will make a huge difference. I will have help from Child Care Resource and Referral then and I will be able to accept families who need state assistance.
I ordered some flyers yesterday. One more form of advertising in addition to my website, Facebook, the Rising Sun Fun Care blog, KSL, and the local paper. I have business cards too. I have been marketing like crazy and my efforts are starting to pay off.
I am so excited! I could just cry. I can't wait!
