Greetings Directors!
In June, we heard Mara from First Children's Finance present on Recruiting Non-Profit Board Members (worksheets available here). We also had Nichole Polifka, Professional Development Manager from the Minnesota Children's Museum out to speak about their Intentional Provider professional development series. As a group, we discussed sibling discounts (most centers present offered 10% off to the older children in a family) and financial management software (one center used EZCare and was dissatisfied, most used Quickbooks or something equivalent, another center had specially designed software).
Suggestion for future discussion: social media policy and use in child care marketing.
I will be posting the schedule for the site tours later today. We will meet at the first center at 10am on July 14th. Thanks to all of the centers who have volunteered for visits!
Links to documents distributed are within the meeting summary. One additional document would be information about MN Charities law that Mara handed out, available here.
Seeking to improve child care quality by enhancing the professional development of early childhood director's through monthly training, networking and resource sharing.
