Transforming Childcare Businesses with Training, Retention, and Growth Tools

Running a childcare center or daycare is more than just providing a safe space for children, it’s about nurturing growth, maintaining compliance, supporting staff, and ensuring your business thrives in a competitive industry. But finding the right tools to accomplish all of this? That’s where many childcare owners struggle.

That’s exactly why we built ECE University: a content management and professional development platform designed for the unique needs of early childhood education businesses.

How ECE University Supports Your Business Growth

Retain and Develop Your Best Staff
One of the biggest challenges in childcare is staff turnover. Losing great employees is costly, disrupts the consistency children need, and can impact parent satisfaction. ECE University’s Peak Performance Program provides a structured, performance-based merit system to recognize and retain your top educators. When your team feels valued and has a clear path for growth, they’re far more likely to stay. Plus, with 200+ hours of IACET-approved professional development courses, your staff can continue to learn, advance, and contribute to your center’s success.

Train and Certify Staff with Ease
Many states require lead teachers to have a Child Development Associate (CDA) certification, but finding an affordable and flexible option can be challenging. With ECE University’s CDA program, your staff can start earning their CDA for as low as $199. Our platform makes it easy for teachers to complete coursework on their schedule while allowing you to track their progress and ensure compliance.

Strengthen Enrollment and Build a Thriving Community
In today’s competitive childcare industry, it’s not enough to just offer great care, you need to attract families, give them a reason to choose you, and keep them engaged. That’s why we created the ECE Enrollment Growth Academy: an 8-module program designed specifically for childcare and daycare businesses. This course helps you:
- Increase enrollment and retain families.
- Enhance your marketing and tour strategies.
- Build a strong community connection with parents.
- Unify your team with a clear approach to engagement and communication.
If you’re struggling to fill spots or want to build stronger relationships with the families in your center, this program will equip you with the strategies you need.

Customize Training and Share Resources with Staff & Families
Every childcare center operates differently, and you need a platform that adapts to your unique approach. With ECE University, you can upload your own content, create QR codes for easy access, and share training materials with both staff and families. Whether you want to streamline onboarding, ensure consistency in staff training, or provide families with valuable resources, ECE University makes it easy to distribute and track content efficiently.
