Question:I recently quit an early childhood teaching position and now I'm caring for children in their private homes. I have offered other services to my families as well such as personal shopping and errands running. I'm thinking of calling myself a "family assis

I have taught preschool for 14 years and finally figured out that I could work with young children in their homes. I have three families I currently work for. I'm wondering if I should start a newsletter of sorts to help promote my business. I could feature articles and things about family life and achieving balance in life and something like that. I want to think outside the box and be more than a "babysitter." I want to support families and help create balance in their lives.

Answer:

Wow! It certainly sounds like you have amazing stories and expertise to share...maybe you can start a blog or a website that shares who you are and what you do. It's very cost efficient and requires a little less maintenance than a newsletter to start with.

Your families are so lucky to have you!
