How do you get started on owning your own preschool..?

I work as a teacher now, I just love working with children. One day I dream of owning my own preschool, what are the requirements of operating your own and what funds are available to you with purchasing the building, supplies, etc? I live in Houston,Tx

Answer:
I took a business class this summer. You need to know EVERYTHING. your business name, slogan, mission statement, etc. before you start thinking about buildings. I'm pretty sure you need a license if you want to own a PRESCHOOL.. you can get loans from the bank.. you pretty much need to know exactly what you want and you can start it.
