Creating Policies & Parent Handbooks

There are many things parents need to know about the child care program they selected for their child such as its policies on attendance, discipline, health and safety and holidays. Many providers prefer to put this information in a brochure or handbook, rather than in a contract, so parents can easily refer to it on a regular basis.

Your family child care program is as unique as you are! No one can write your policies as well as you can. The Parent Handbook Workshop can help you develop written policies that reflect the way you run your business. The workshop will also address the development of fees and rate sheets as well as marketing strategies.
