Are you a family child care owner looking to strengthen your business? Do you currently care for children as a relative provider but are considering becoming licensed?
Trying Together will launch on April 1 “The Business of Family Child Care”, a self-paced online course that dives into starting and maintaining a family child care business. This course will be hosted through the PD Registry and is worth 12 PQAS hours.
The course is designed especially for current family child care owners and relative providers exploring business ownership and licensing. Recognizing that caregivers have busy lives and many responsibilities, the self-paced nature of this course allows learners to complete the work at their own speed and when convenient for them.
The course guides learners through nine modules that include practical tools, clear explanations, and real-world examples. Each module includes a quiz to test understanding, and learners can download helpful tools and resources for use in their business.
These modules focus on creating a safe, compliant, and relationship-centered program where children and families thrive. Learners will discover how to price their services, manage expenses, attract families, and create a sustainable program that supports both passion and income.
