Setting Goals Will Bring Life To Your Business

As I write this blog post, I am in my bed preparing for my upcoming leadership meeting with my center directors. Every week we read a book or an article that inspires us all to Grow. This week’s article is an excert from a book that we are reading titled, The art of Leading by The Child Care Exchange.

The article that we are reading asks the question, Are you operating a Center or a Organization? Also, the article inspired me to delegate more and inspired me to consider setting a 5 year plan for my center.

At the beginning of 2024, I celebrated 25 years in business. In fact, I began to reflect on whether or not we have reached our peak or if we should still be building or not.

After reading that article mentioned above, and writing a 5 year plan for my center, I’m reminded that goal setting will bring life to your business.

Furthermore, As I wrote the 5 year plan for my Atlanta location, I literally felt life go back into the business!

When you’ve operated a business for over 20 years, you can easily get bored and lose vision. However, I want to inspire you to create a 5 year plan for your childcare business and bring life to your business again!

Feel free to share how this blog post inspired you!

The Child Care Business Owner Institute Celebrates 14 Years Online

In August 2010, I was inspired to start a blog titled, The Child Care Business Owner. I was inspired to blog about operating a childcare business seven years after opening my first childcare center.

As a new center owner, I struggled as a leader, and I was constantly overwhelmed with staff issues. In fact, the first 10 years of the journey was frustrating, and I was determined not to give up.

After struggling as a leader for several years, I decided to get a business mentor, and I read tons of leadership books. As I began to grow as a leader and invest in myself as a business owner, I was inspired to teach what I learned.

In fact, I wanted to help other childcare business owners to avoid the mistakes that I made in business, by sharing proven success strategies that I implemented in my center.

Over the course of fourteen years, I launched a coaching program, written 17 books, been invited to speak at childcare events and created digital products to inspire childcare business owners all over the world.

Today the blog has had over 450,000 hits online and has thousands of subscribers. The first five years of launching the blog, my biggest readers were home providers. Today my followers are mostly center owners or individuals seeking to start or grow a childcare business.

Furthermore, since I’ve launched this blog, I’ve expanded my childcare business four times including moving into a new city and operating multiple locations. Also, I’ve received an honorary doctorate degree from the Global International Alliance and that I’m so thankful to get such an honor.

My passion now is truly to inspire you to grow as a leader, business quality center and build the team of your dreams.

Moreover, In the past 14 years I have learned firsthand that when you grow as a leader, your business will grow!

I’m truly amazed at how this blog has grown and I believe there is more inspiration to do. The business of childcare has not gotten any easier. In fact, I pray that this blog provides you with wisdom that makes the journey easier for you.

Please take a moment and share with me how this blog has inspired you. Thanks for subscribing!

With your Business Success in mind,
