    Unhappy Thinking About Closing...

    I am considering closing up my daycare, but am not 100% okay with the idea. I don't feel like I can mentally take staying open anymore. My own children are very demanding and high needs and I am drained by the time they leave for school in the mornings. My oldest has anxiety (diagnosed) and has panic attacks in the mornings when I drop off. She refuses to go inside and it's a fight and teacher has to carry her in....it's hard to manage her when I have 4-5 other children with me.

    My youngest daughter has a lot of behaviour issues when the other kids are here and in her space. It is constant chaos.

    I'm in a tough spot, because financially I can't afford to close right now. I have anxiety myself so not a lot of options for me outside of the home. I have 2 other businesses as well, but they are not yet off the ground with consistent income.

    I guess I'm just looking for some advice/opinions....anything really. Does anyone know of any legit at home work I could use to supplement my income?
