Babies are pretty easy to care for. If you have a system and a limit on how many you can care for which your state should have a limit set. Caring for infants is quite profitable also. If you decide to care for infants you won't be getting out too often, so if you are ok with being in the house a majority of the time you will do fine. Make sure you take your SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) workshop if you decide to care for infants (very important)! Also have a PRE- meeting with perspective parents pertaining to SIDS BEFORE accepting and signing a contract. The majority of parents have no idea or very little knowledge of SIDS.
Good luck in your child care career!

Is this a question from the nanny or the caregiver? I think you'll have to figure it out in person when you start practicing. Of course, this is not an easy job.
