I received some exciting news—I’ve been invited to present at the upcoming Texas Licensed Child Care Association (TLCCA) Spring Conference! The event will take place March 1–2, 2024, at the Kalahari Resort in Round Rock, Texas, and I’m honored to be part of such an impactful gathering for childcare leaders across our state.
What I’ll Be Presenting
On Saturday, March 2, 2024, I’ll be leading three powerful sessions designed to help preschool owners, directors, and leaders strengthen their schools:
- 9:45–10:45 AM: Brand Brilliance – Transforming Your Center’s Image from BLAH to BAM
Learn how to elevate your childcare center’s brand image so it resonates with families and stands out in a competitive market. - 11:00–12:00 PM: Enrollment Elevation – The Art of Captivating Tours
A deep dive into the tour process, with practical strategies for training directors to confidently connect with families, highlight value, and boost enrollment. - 1:30–2:30 PM: Alert: Embrace Profitability! The Power of Positive Preschool Finances
A compassionate but strategic look at preschool finances, including how owners can embrace profitability as a strength, not a weakness, to build stability and maximize long-term value.
Why This Conference Matters
The TLCCA Spring Conference 2024 brings together childcare professionals from across Texas to network, share insights, and walk away with actionable strategies to improve their centers. Hosted at the beautiful Kalahari Resort in Round Rock, it offers not just professional growth, but also a fun and inspiring setting for connection.
For preschool owners and directors, these conferences are invaluable—there’s nothing like learning directly from peers and industry specialists who truly understand the challenges and opportunities in early childhood education.
Why I’m Excited
As a child care sales specialist and active preschool owner, I know firsthand the balancing act between enrollment, branding, and profitability. These sessions come straight from my own experience of building, operating, and selling childcare businesses, and my goal is to provide attendees with tools they can use immediately to strengthen their schools.
I can’t wait to connect with fellow leaders at TLCCA Spring 2024, share expertise, and continue helping owners prepare for brighter futures—whether that means scaling their business, creating stability, or preparing for a successful exit.
