This course helps you make strategic staffing decisions based on how class sizes and ratios actually change throughout the day — so your staffing supports the quality of care you want to provide without costing more than it needs to.
By the end of this course, you will be able to:
- Understand why tracking staffing levels matters for both regulatory compliance and financial sustainability
- Use the 30-minute head count template to collect accurate child-to-staff data
- Evaluate that data to find opportunities to adjust your staffing
- Create a plan to make those adjustments
