About this webinar

Sponsored by Early Education Business Consultants


If you are in the business of offering early learning programs for children and families, your ultimate goal is to provide the best care and educational services possible. To achieve that goal, your program needs a firm foundation of sound operational strategies and practices and a leader with an entrepreneurial mindset.

Join us for an empowering one-hour workshop for owners and directors of child care and early learning programs. In this session, presented by early care and education operations strategist and consultant Lauren M.  Small, you will gain the knowledge and tools to develop and implement key processes to streamline your operations, improve efficiency, and boost revenue. Lauren will utilize the process methodology described in the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) and the Program Administration Scale (PAS) as the framework for this webinar, exploring early childhood research-based best practices essential for your business's survival and growth. The workshop will equip you with actionable insights and practical tools to liberate you from daily operational challenges, enabling you to focus on what truly matters – delivering high-quality early childhood educational services. This workshop is your key to unlocking success in your child care business.

Learning Objectives:

  • Master the Art of Key Processes: Dive deep into the critical processes necessary for the efficient operation of a child care center using the EOS methodology. Understand how mastering these processes will empower you to lead with confidence and strategic vision, and create service consistency.

  • Develop and Implement Efficient Processes: Learn how to create, document, and implement streamlined processes that enhance productivity, reduce errors, improve overall business operations, and ensure consistent service quality, guided by early childhood research-based best practices.

  • Evaluate and Improve Processes for Continuous Success: Gain skills to assess the effectiveness of your current processes, make data-driven improvements, and ensure continuous success and profitability in your childcare business based on early childhood research-based best practices.
