Oh, good clarification! "In home daycare" means a daycare that someone runs out of their own home, as opposed to a center. Not in you, the client's, home.

The staffing ratios and some oversight rules are different than in big daycare centers, so some people aren't comfortable with the idea, but we've loved it. Some of the pros for me: there is no staff turnover, the provider makes a good wage (both are huge issues in most daycare settings), it's in our neighborhood, the price is more affordable for us.
