Change Your Words…Change Your Child Care Business

You have the power to transform your Business

with your words.

When I opened my Child Care Center, it didn’t take long for me to discover that I hated supervising employees. In fact, I despised it so much that I spoke about it quite often.

Talking about my hate for supervising employees only brought me more difficulties as an employer and it resulted in the following:

  • Meetings about strife amongst employees
  • Employees called off work frequently
  •  Dealing with poor attitudes
  •  High Turnover
  •  Employees walking off the job and many other issues

I think you get the point. My words created years of frustrations for me as an employer and my situation did not change until I changed my words about being an employer.

Your words can also affect your relationship with your parents. If you complain about your families all the time, you just may be complaining your business a way. Try to find the good in every situation, if there is nothing good about dealing with the family; discontinue the relationship.

However, as I developed my leadership skills and changed my words, I was a happier Business Owner and things began to change in my Business.

What about you? Are you happy with your Child Care Business? What have you been speaking over your business lately? Take a moment to reflect….

I want to encourage you to choose your words carefully, because your business will only rise to the words that you speak.

When employees are treated like family,

they’re far less likely to betray the company for personal gain.

As I write this blog post, I am feeling so much appreciation for my staff. In fact, our annual Open House is only 2-days away and the teachers have been working really hard on their classrooms.

One week prior to writing this blog post, I held a 15-minute staff meeting and I shared  what my vision was for Open House and that included:

  • Fun Activities for the kids
  • Creative decor on the walls
  • An apple theme
  • Well organized classrooms
  • Welcome new families to our center
  • Open the center to the community

I must say that my staff has done exceedingly abundantly  above all that I could have imagined that they could do.

If you are  following my personal page on facebook, you may have noticed that I have posted pictures of my open house banner and I have been tweeting about leadership and staff, because this week I have learned so much about how to get your staff to exceed your expectations!

Check out the Thank you Memo below that I issued to my teachers:

In summary, I want you to know that its more work to do it all by yourself, however, it takes motivation and positive leadership to get your staff to help you  build a successful childcare business!

To Your Success,

Shiketa
