Ordinary Meets Extraordinary - With Abby Hileman

Do you have a staff member that thinks policies don't pertain to them?

Let's talk about your non-negotiables. You've probably heard me talk about mine in some of my tiktok videos, but if you're new here, your non negotiables should be 3-5 policies that you stick to with absolutely NO wiggle room. If this staff member is not holding themselves to your standards/policies, ESPECIALLY if we’re talking non-negotiables, then they need to go. If we’re talking policies like tardiness, then we just simply have a conversation with them and give them a ton of reminders and a possible write-up if it’s consistent and hindering the learning of students or co-teachers. However, this does go against their raises/bonuses when that time comes.

My non-negotiables are:
1. Counting your children through EVERY threshold.
2. Clipboards are ALWAYS up to date with the right children.
3. Only ONE teacher on their phone updating Brightwheel at a time.

Write your non-negotiables in the comments and let's talk about!

Owning the best childcare center in Pittsburgh didn't happen on accident. It takes dedication day in and day out from myself, my leadership team, and my teachers to never settle. We continue to raise the bar in early education of what our kids and our community need. This week marked the third time being nominated as the Best Childcare Center in Pittsburgh. Proud is an understatement.

What is center culture? I talk about it all the time on my tiktok page. Hell, I made a 30 day training course about it. Let’s talk about what that actually means.

✨ Defined as the behaviors and patterns that exist in your company and shared belief of what behaviors will and won’t be tolerated.
✨ Culture is the overall work environment that has been established.
✨ Culture is not one action. It is a combination of many things that all work together to establish those norms for your center.

Now that we have defined it, let me help you create a positive one that makes teachers want to work for you.

As a teacher, it can be very difficult to track your students milestones and assessments without the right resources.

At our center, we went through a few different assessments for our students, but each time they were always missing something and just didn’t line up with our standards and curriculum.

That’s when we decided to take some time out of our day and go through our curriculum and create our own assessments for all age groups. Parents and teachers are able to see where their children fall developmentally, and parents are able to take a copy home to read over.
