Deductions & credits
"Sounds like best option is for my mother to have provided care in her home and then she can fill out schedule C. That way I don't have the $2200 limit ."
No! You're misunderstanding the $2200 limit. It has NOTHING to do with how much you can claim from a Dependent Care Account or for the Dependent Care Credit. It has to do with the threshold for when a household employee is subject to FICA (social security and Medicare) tax. And Grandparent household employees are generally exempt from FICA (the "nanny tax"), regardless of the amount.
