Marketing that Builds Enrollment

The key to building a successful and profitable childcare business is found in your ability to effectively market your business. In fact, I have learned over the years that families would come only if they know that you are there!

Online Marketing is the #1 way to market a business today. In fact, 20 years ago, it was the yellow pages or through flyers. The internet has literally provided business owners a platform to market their businesses for free or for an upgraded affordable fee.

  1. Do you struggle with enrollment building?
  2. Are you intimidated by online marketing?
  3. Do you need assistance with online marketing?

If you answered yes to any of the questions above, I want to help you makeover your marketing plan and empower you to build enrollment through your business marketing plan!

I know what it feels like to have low enrollment and it is not a good feeling. Also, low enrollment has a major impact on your child care business budget. However, having a high enrollment gives you financial freedom and it also gives you a peace of mind.

This month, the theme of the Child Care Leaders Club is Marketing that Builds Enrollment. I want to invite you to join the club today and gain access to proven marketing strategies. Most of all, I want to empower you with tools that will help you sell your Child Care program online and compel parents to call your childcare business today.

10 Ways To Have a Fun and Safe Summer

 
 


I had a great time with my staff at our Annual Summer Safety training/meeting.  I believe that quality care is safe care and 10 years years ago I  made it a tradition to kick off my Summer Camp off with a Summer Safety Training.

At my annual Summer safety meeting, we discuss: summer uniform requirements, summer safety stories,  summer curriculum theme, van safety, fieldtrip safety and outdoor safety in the sun.

After the training, I feel that my team is empowered to have a fun and safe Summer.

 I share many of my Summer Camp secrets in my Summer Camp Planning guide, however, today  I want to share 10 ways to have a fun and Safe Summer with you!

1. Be sure to plan lots of fun and exciting activities and field trips
2. Create a first aid kit for field trips and for the van
3. Invite parents to send sunscreen, sunglasses or sun hats for outdoor time
4. Take the water play outdoors this summer!
5. Be sure that you have at least 2 people on site, who are trained in first-aid & CPR.
6. Do not take children outdoors if the weather is above 90 degrees.
7. Refrain from using wading pools and if you have a filtered pool, be sure that there is a trained life guard on site.
8. Be sure that the ratio on field trips is at least 1-to-5 for preschoolers and 1-to-8 for school age children. (Exceed state ratios on field trips to assure a safe and fun time)
9. Create a van check list for field trips that instructs staff on head count procedures, etc. Always double-check vans, even after you have counted all the children.
10. Take the water pitcher and disposable cups on the playground so that children will have access to drinking water at all times.
 
Have a Safe & Fun Summer!
