BUSINESS IDEA 2
CHILDREN BOARDING AND DAY CARE INSTITUTION WITH PEDIATRICS
Company Description
A children boarding and daycare institution is a business idea that is aimed at retaining
children within a care, mentoring and supervision center as their parents go to work. I arrived at
the idea after doing a personal social research on the implication of globalization which forces
most parents to work both at day and night (Li et al 2015). Most children have developed deviant
behaviors due to lack of proper supervision from parents who spend more time at work and leave
behind their children with nannies or relatives (Faircloth,2014). The Children boarding and a day
care institution with pediatrics is aimed to ease parents' burden through a professional approach.
The institution will be aimed at increasing confidence among parents and reduce crime rates
among children. Confidence among parents will be increased as they're assured of their children
safe and positive nurturing as they work. Presence of boarding and daycare will help reduce
crime rates among children and encourage to learning and interactionn with their peers under the
supervision and guidance of professionals (Clutterbuck,2016). The institution shall cater for
children between the ages of 2 to 16 years by offering an appropriate program for each group.
However, the pediatric program will extend to 21 years old. Building up a pediatrics center
within the daycare to take care of the sick children and also to give a chance for pediatricians'
view the health conditions of the children and ensure they are in sound health.
Reasons for Choosing the Idea
My decision at the thought was inspired by the changes in the society that have forced
parents to spend more time at work and less time with their children. Nevertheless, my greatest
aspiration emerged from psychological and sociological research findings which reveal that
increased crime rates among children have been attributed to by poor parental modeling and
mentoring ( Brezina,2015). I also discovered that there were fewer children boarding and day
care institutions that offer pediatric services at the same time. Forms of children rights violation
in the absence of parents have also increased. I, therefore, developed the idea with a mentality of
taking care of children on behalf of parents through mentoring and answering to their medical
needs.
Strengths of the Idea
 Professional guidance for children in the absence of parents
 Presence of Pediatrics to take care of their children when sick and monitor the health

BUSINESS IDEA 3
 Building parents trust on daycare as there is a signed agreement between parents and the
organization on child protection, parents having the right to report any malpractices done
on their children and demand for compensation
How The Business Idea Changes People Lives
 Creating employment for people
 Minimizing parents stress on looking for house helps
 Improved cognitive development of a child in an equipped and motivating environment.
Future Prospects Of Business
 More parents will develop confidence in the boarding day care and pediatrics thus
Increasing the number of full time working parents.
 Reduced crime rates among children as they will be engaged in other developmental
activities in the absence of parents.
 Enhanced responsibility and development of self-dependence attitude among children as
they will be expected to perform a majority of activities in the absence of their parents.
 Creation of employment to professional working in the center and loss of employment for
residential babysitters and nannies
Where It Can Apply
The idea applies and cuts across all spheres of social, economic and political life allows
parents engage in other paramount activities with confidence that their children need to be
fulfilled even in their absence
Challenges
 Finances
 Coping up with behaviors of some children may not be easy (Michael,20177).
 Getting reliable staff to work with may be hard especially at the start of the organization
 Dealing with cases of careless parents who leave their children in daycare never to come
back or disappearing for a long time
How To Overcome The Challenges
 Getting funding from other organizations or partnering with organizations with the same
mission.
 Consistent training of staff to ensure quality delivery of service to the children

BUSINESS IDEA 4
 Drafting of rules of ethical conduct to be followed by parents and employees and signing
of agreement contract.
 Keeping records of child case, i.e., information of parents, area of residence, next of
keen for easy follow up and to avoid cases of parents going missing and living behind
their children
Conclusion
A boarding and day care institution with pediatrics is the best present and future solution
to parents in the changing political, economic and social global trends where parents have greater
needs to satisfy their family demands while at the same time ensuring the well being of their
children . Childcare institutions offloads the burden from parents by taking care and mentoring
the children in an expected societal concept ( Flaukner et al 2016).
