Expert Profile: Julie Fedynich

Expertise: I am the mother of 6 and have been a state licensed daycare provider for 10 years. If its happened to anyone its happened to me. I take constant continuing education on child rearing.As a daycare provider (not babysitter--we never sit) I have been asked some of the most ridiculous questions. Do you know what to ask a prospective provider and why to ask?
I think my greatest accomplishment is my children. Not just my biological ones but the others that I help to raise in my daycare. They are all loving little people that have respect for authority. I'm very proud of them

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know: There are several important questions to ask a potential caregiver. Do you know what they are?

Something controversial or provocative about this subject You've seen all the bad press about caregivers. There should be press about bad parents!

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field? I'm learning more about children every day. They constantly amaze and amuse.

What do you like about this subject? I love talking about finding daycare because it is really scarey to trust your child to someone who is virtually a total stranger. If I can point out some problem areas to a parent it is very satisfying. I think that every child deserves a safe place to be cared for.

Thank you for your help--like I said, it's a loose operation and while we only use our provider part-time, she has a guaranteed number of hours. Than

Thank you so much for your quick response. I think I will talk to an accountant--atleast for the first year in filing my tax return. Thanks again.
