PROVIDING EXPERTISE TO
DAYCARE PROVIDERS
How Do You Turn Your Daycare Into a Profi t?
L
ori Sharp’s been in the childcare fi eld for over a decade and
knows how to take a daycare business from good to great.
One problem has been that independent daycare owners
never had a resource to turn to for help to grow their
business to the next level—until now.
As a consultancy, Sharp’s business gives businessowners the
plan, then they execute the plan.
“I help with problems like fulfi lling enrollment, maintaining
current enrollment or maintaining staff ,” she said. “We can develop a
business plan going forward, help them with marketing ideas, look
at where they need help and how we can help them get there.”
Another service that is common and necessary for daycare
providers and off ered by Childcare Development Consultants is
enrollment projections, which may sound routine but can be
surprisingly wrong in many cases without expert help.
“People are always coming and
going in this industry. Families move,
kids have confl icting activities… The
number you’re looking for is a moving
target, and unless you have a plan for
that, you’re going to have empty seats
to fi ll,” Sharp explained.
With a background in early
childhood education and business, Lori Sharp was a classroom
teacher for eight years before becoming the director of a daycare
center. She decided to found Childcare Development Consultants
to help others in the fi eld learn from her experience and success.
