What do you do when you are already overstaffed and really amazing applications keep coming in? How do you keep turnover under industry standards? Come along with Abby as she discusses how we have become overstaffed with teachers, with high quality applications coming in weekly. Having a business that succeeds and grows on the “family culture” community aspect is so important to us. We know that our teachers have lives outside of work, and their family comes first. Which is one of the top reasons why our turnover rate is under the usual standard for teachers. Listen today to learn more about staffing your center!
