day care

I'll be moving to my first army base sometime before September. Do any of you know if I'll be allowed to open a day care on base or will I have to attempt to find a job at one in order to work.

*I do have a degree and all the requirements.

It may depend on the state that you are moving to. We are on the west coast and there are guidelines for providers.

One option is to go to the state website and look at their requirements. Also, go to the base site and see if there is a link to an ombudsman who may be able to help you (just in case there are different rules for onbase).

Good luck!

Yea I think most bases have CDC and CDH (Child development Home) They provide lots of training. I did it for a short time.

    I have my maxed amount of epidural shots of my cervical DDD....(and no one cares about my lumbar DDD)..... I've done physical therapy, muscle relaxers, Amitriptyline, Nortryptiline, desipramine.....narcotics... So I decided to go to a spine specialist and they have me on Gabapentin. Its been two weeks and it did nothing for my lumbar ever... but it did seem to help my cervical and arm/hand pain...
