How do I start a childcare business from home?

Starting a childcare business from home can be an attractive option for business owners as it removes the need to manage a Commercial Lease. However, you need to consider how you can meet your employer obligations remotely and whether your home is sufficiently safe as a workplace too.

For instance, you'd need to carefully consider Workplace Health and Safety regulations. Further, it's advised to get a lawyer to draft contracts in a way that limits your liability for anything that goes wrong on the premises.
