Having at least one bulletin board in a high traffic area (entry way, or check in) is very important for your business! Not only is it a great place to post children’s artwork, it can be used to post news and other important things relating to your child care. It does not need to be elaborate, or changed frequently, but you should declutter and post new things about every other week, so parents keep interested in looking it over.
The Basics
You can sometimes find bulletin boards at your local thrift shop, which you can cover with decorative or plain paper. If you do not want to purchase used, you can find large or small bulletin boards at department stores and office supply stores.
What to post about your business: (on or around your board)
- Your License-Framed
- A calendar
- Your newsletter
- Emergency Phone Numbers, Emergency Escape Route, Other forms required by your state to be posted
- Your newest training certificate
- Your training log
Fun stuff to post:
- Newest photos
- Artwork by the children
- News clippings that have your business or one of the children in them
Extras:
- Articles from your favorite magazines or newspaper
- Area contact numbers (for Human Services, Shelters, etc)
- Community events and news
As you can see, there are many things you can post on a bulletin board that are important to your child care! This list is by no means complete, there is so much more this tool can be used for.
What are your favorite things to post on your bulletin boards?
