  You may need to invest in some extremely expensive insurance for something like that. Especially if you’re going to have other people’s kids running around a pool and playing on go carts.

    I’m willing to bet prohibitively expensive insurance

  I understand I would want to have waivers, certifications, and the like. Like food handlers permit, life guard training (if I go to pool), cpr, all that.

  Yeah, all that will be super important. This will protect you, the kids and make the parents more comfortable with you. You will also want to consider business insurance and make sure it covers all the activities you have in mind. Some regions have major restrctions about how many kids can be supervised by an adult. You might find out there’s rules about needing 2 adults of each sex.

  I think it would be wise to have a partner, first to be a backup child-watcher in case your attention focuses in one direction. And the legal witness isn’t a bad thing to have also.

  My first thought is that the HOA is going to have a big problem with this, if you have one- most town homes do.

  You can use "LittleKidLover" as your business email username so everyone knows where your priorities are.

  On your own property? No, absolutely insane idea, don’t do it. Too much inherent risk, especially since you don’t own the pool or the public areas. There are likely HOA or similar policies preventing exactly this.

  OTOH - If you bought a property and ran is as a business… great idea!

  I’m not dropping my kids off at a stranger’s house, and to be a bit sexist here a single man’s house, and paying him to let my kids swim at his pool, drive go karts on open pavement, and play store-bought laser tag.

  An insured fun center with employees? Sure, maybe. Some guy’s home? Absolutely not.

  I also am not putting my kids in an Uber alone.

  If you want to be Johnny Karate, figure out something you can bring to birthday parties or kids events and make your money that way. But “unlicensed daycare” is a hard no.
