The 3 Little Things You Do That Mean A lot In Your Family Daycare
This is very true especially for some major corporations in the United States for example, Disney. When visiting a Disney Theme Park you'll never notice anyone working on the grounds maintenance during the day. All work, including cleaning, planting and water flowers is done at night. After the park closes massive flood lights go on so that all the workers can complete maintance at night. Why do they do this you ask? Well, because Disney Theme Parks are all about the illusion of happiness and escaping from the real world. Everyone is always friendly and there to help the visitor.
Getting back to family daycare how can you do the little things that mean a lot to your customer? Another thing to think about is, how can you set yourself apart from the daycare down the block?
Tip #1
Make Birthdays for your daycare children a BIG deal: Each time a child in your daycare has a birthday, especially the 1st make a totally big deal out of it. Have a small birthday party, have the special child wear a birthday hat, make some cupcakes and of course purchase a gift for the child. Know, I'm not saying break the bank, but you can definitely go to the Dollar Store and buy a few items. All these thoughts spell out one idea to your parent, "I really care about your child". Parent's will feel all warm and gushy inside when they arrive to pick up their child and you tell them about their special birthday, and then hand them a small present to take home.
Tip#2
Offer coffee or warm cookies when a parent drops off or picks up their child. This is just one way to make your home inviting to the parent who is on the rush to or from work. Little items that set you apart from other day care centers and ease the craziness of the work day for most parents.
Tip#3
Taking Pictures of children's activities:
Wouldn't a parent who misses their child and want's to participate in their activities love a picture at the end of the day? Or we could even take this one step further, for those of you who are technical savvy (it's not me) what about sending an email to the parents workplace with a pic of their child having a great time? "Mom, look at me I'm having so much fun!" The fact of the matter is so many parents feel guilty about dropping off their children in the morning, why not make them feel a little bit better about their choice.
Pretty simple right? The little things mean a whole lot in every small business. Go out of your way to help others and you will reap the reward.
