Childcare Information Management

Managing all of the information for a childcare business can be a real headache! I used to keep paper files on all of my kiddos that contained contracts, enrollment forms, medical forms, immunization records, emergency forms, and on and on! When you add in information like the food programs and tax records it can be a nightmare! I have finally found a daycare management software that I love and that truly made my life easier when it came to record keeping. It allowed me to store most of my information electronically, saving me lots of space! It also allowed me to easily make changes to contact information, etc. without requiring new forms each time. That saved me a lot of time and hassle! One caution about storing information electronically, ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP COPY OF YOUR DATA! That way in case of computer problems you don't lose all of your data! Also, you should really keep relevant contact information at your immediate fingertips, so if you arene't a person that has your computer on and ready all day you may want to keep a list of contact information either with your calendar or with your sign-in book so you have it ready in a moment's notice. I highly recommend this daycare management software and I'm sure you will find it as useful as I have! Just click the link below to check it out! Good luck!

Welcome!

Welcome to my blog! My name is Eileen Michalczyk. I am the mother of four gifted children, a former elementary school teacher, and a former home daycare owner. I currently run a successful marketing business from my home. I have a wealth of knowledge to share with you on how to run a successful home daycare. I personally opened my home childcare business in 1998 and just closed my doors in the summer of 2007. Home daycare allowed me to be at home with my own children while still making an income. It can be a great profession if you structure it correctly and carefully and remember that you are in charge! Keep coming back to visit as new content will be added regularly, and look for my web-published articles. Links will be available for them soon! I also have an e-book in the works that will be a complete guide to running a successful home childcare and will come with a complete kit of the forms you will need to get started. Check back on this blog in the next few weeks for a date of publication. Best of luck!
