The Ultimate Guide to Early Childhood Business SOPs

Consistency is the key to providing a quality experience. But how do we ensure that and what is the key to making sure our team is on the same page?
When it comes to operating a preschool, playcafe, or other type of early childhood business, having well-developed standard operating procedures is essential. Strong SOPs help to ensure that all team members are on the same page in terms of how to handle day-to-day operations and procedures. They also provide a valuable reference point in the event that something goes wrong.

In today’s episode we share the Ultimate Guide to EC Business Standard Operating Procedures that will help you develop and implement standard operating procedures (SOPs) for your early childhood business.
I can honestly say that I LOVE my SOPs! I took a bit of time to write them when I first opened but have only had to change or update them a few times. The most recent was the unfortunate addition of the lock down drill.

These SOPs have saved me so much time!! I have every new team member review them while they are in training. When I sit down with them to make sure they are properly trained, that have already reviewed almost all that they need to know. So my time with them is focused on supporting their needs and questions, not explaining details.
