How do I file taxes as an Unlicensed Childcare Provider in Michigan?

I am an Unlicensed Childcare Provider in Michigan for 4 children. My paychecks are issued by the Department of Education to the mother of the children and she has to cash them and give them to me. Since I don't watch them in her home I don't think she's required to  issue me a W-2, how should I go about reporting my taxes?

You are a self-employed individual.  You will enter the amounts received into the self-employment section of TurboTax.  Then you will be able to enter any expenses that you had for the money you made such as materials and the cost of your home.
