How to get grants to open a Daycare/Head Start/Child Dev. Center? -

I am 18, working 2 jobs- One in a daycare and another is an after school program for kids Kindergarten-5th grade!! Me and my 32 year old sister want to open up a daycare in our small town. The daycare in our town closed down 2-3 years ago. I think it d be nice to have one here. I am wondering where I can get grants to start one? My boyfriends aunt got grants for her in-home daycare, so I know it s possible! There are grants for toys, supplies, and actually opening one up.... if you know anything I could look into it d be great!!Thanks!!
