OUR SERVICES
Childcare facilities face staffing challenges everyday. With the industry turnover rate exceeding 30% many owners and directors find that staffing occupies the majority of their daily tasks. The complexity of employee payroll, taxes, and benefit management requires valuable time the director and/or owner could be spending with families and children.

In addition, facilities are spending over 10 thousand dollars each year in recruitment, screening, training and employee retention in order to meet the requirements of the Department of Children and Families. Not to mention the rising cost of workers compensation insurance. Running a profitable operation becomes extremely challenging.

This is where we can help.

The Education Team offers several solutions to meet these daily challenges. We alleviate your short and/or long term staffing frustrations providing you with priceless time to focus on the children and families who put their trust in you everyday.

With The Education Team, you’ll receive fully screened and pre-qualified childcare professionals of the highest quality. Background screenings are completed and provided to meet State and County licensing requirements. In addition, we provide drug screening, performance evaluations, and training to all of our childcare professionals.

 
Choose from one or all of our three service packages. 

Emergency Substitute
When faced with a short-term emergency, we provide experienced, credentialed childcare professionals to fill in for your existing employees. Complete our Emergency Substitute Request Form and we can have a qualified childcare professional at your center usually within an hour.

Substitute to Extended
Substitute to Extended employees are available for conversion to your staff after 90 working days. A “Sub to Perm” solution offers you time to assess the childcare professional’s performance and determine if this employee fits the needs of your center.
