Once your young charges have left your care for the day, and you are left surveying the daily “suprises” left behind, there is a silver lining…. The cost of cleaning the Family Day Care exclusive area is tax deductible!

With this in mind, the following items are normal deductible items in your FDC business:

             -      Carpet Shampoo to be used in the FDC exclusive area
             -      Car interior shampoo and cleaners
