Yes, you would need to put different fiscal years on your businesses. You would put the May 18 to Oct 31 date on your child care business, and make sure that you indicate that it was the last year this business operated. Use the Nov. 1 to Dec 31 date for your landscaping business, and indicate that you started it in 2018.
