“With the support of my business coach, I was able to set up automatic billing with parents of my program, so I now get paid in full and on time. I also decreased the amount of time a spot sat empty in my program, which helped me earn more without having to raise prices. My coach helped me to put better policies in place for my child care program and get organized. I now have more time to focus on my own family.”
