Question by morethanaprettyface: Can a private childcare provider file taxes?

I am considering providing childcare within my home. I have one child of my own and plan on providing care for 2 other children.
Can I file taxes as a childcare provider? If so, what do I need to do in order to file? And what would I need to prove I provided childcare for my tax preparer?

Yes you have to file like a person that runs their own business because that is what you do. Self employed forms are available at IRS.GOV
