Thanks to both of you for your valuable input....I appreciate it. What should my first step be? Is the same license needed for both daycare provider and preschool teacher? Also, since it will be a preschool (not a childcare/daycare situation) are there certain regulations or curriculums required by my state that need to be followed (or do I have freedom to teach what I want to teach).

If I remember correctly, we ended up just being able to add coverage to our home policy and it didn't make much of a diffe...See More
