Web Site Wonders for Directors

Submitted by Laura Shallow

Child Care Exchange has an informative web site full of articles and products geared to the Director of any center.  They also have a daily e-mail article that you may sign up to receive free of charge.  The link is on their web site.  They deal with all aspects of the childcare field from current research on best practices to marketing to staff retention to name a few.

Child Care Exchange frequently quotes Julie Wassom in their web site and in their daily e-mail.  She is an expert on marketing your childcare center.  A recent article titled Asking for the Center Visit without Feeling like a Used Car Salesman, is the perfect example of a short but useful tip sheet.  She also has a website full of tips and articles and books and products for sale.  Her site is juliewassom.com. 

For your teaching staff you can’t beat perpetualpreschool.com.  This site is organized by themes and teacher suggested lesson plan ideas.

Please enjoy these sites and take a minute to e-mail your favorites.  Collaboration is one of the main goals of this organization.
