Okay, so I've been working p/t at a daycare care to help make ends meet while I've been trying to kick PC into overdrive. I found out Friday, though, that the daycare is closing. :( I've got a very full schedule for October and November and am working on filling December. So I'm thinking about not trying to pick up another job. But here's the exciting part... One on the ladies I work with is probably going to do PC! She wants to do it full time! Woo Hoo. We get along really well, too, so I'm excited that I will still have lots of reasons to see her and talk to her! Plus I'm signing another lady at the end of the month after her show. And I've got another girl who is very interested in the oppurtunity, but is moving to Virginia in 3 weeks! :eek: She's coming to our meeting next week though. Plus I've got another host this month who is interested in the oppurtunity! Wow! Talk about hitting the jackpot! :p
 
That's cool! If I was you I would hold off on finding another job right away to see if you PC takes off. If not, maybe you could watch a couple of the kids in your own home? That is what I do and it helps that I can stay near the phone and my computer all day.
 
I think you are more than well on your way to becoming a director!! In my director's newsletter, she posted her commission versus what she would earn as a consultant and it has inspried me to build my team. I just signed my first recruit!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What inspired you to start a personal care business while working at a daycare?

My passion for helping others and my love for personal care products inspired me to start this business. Working at a daycare has shown me the importance of self-care, and I wanted to share products that promote well-being and confidence with my clients.

Balancing both roles requires careful planning and time management. I set specific hours for my personal care business during evenings and weekends, allowing me to dedicate quality time to both my job at the daycare and my business without compromising either.

I offer a variety of personal care products, including skincare items, hair care products, and wellness essentials. Each product is carefully selected for its quality and effectiveness, ensuring that my clients receive the best possible options for their self-care routines.

Working at a daycare has taught me the importance of trust and relationships. I approach my personal care business with a focus on building genuine connections with my clients, understanding their needs, and providing personalized recommendations that cater to their unique preferences.

What exciting news do you have regarding your personal care business?
