We understand turnover & staffing gaps are a constant challenge. Average teacher turnover in center-based programs is ~33% (median ~23%). Even centers paying higher wages (~$25/hour) can face unplanned absences.​ Rushing to hire to meet immediate ratio requirements often forces directors to bring in teachers before they are properly trained or into unstable classrooms.​ This creates a cycle: unprepared staff → burnout → higher turnover → repeat.

​

Our services ​provide trained, reliable staff to cover absences, allowing directors the time to hire thoughtfully, onboard properly, and break the cycle of rapid turnover or classroom coverage shortage.

​Staff absences cost centers money through overtime, emergency hires, and potential lost enrollment. Including indirect costs — lost enrollment, staff burnout, and quality dips — monthly losses could reach $12,500–$60,000.​

Nationally, childcare breakdowns cost $122 billion annually in lost productivity and revenue. Our provisional educator program ensures classrooms are always staffed, reduces emergency hires, and gives directors the breathing room to hire and onboard strategically — protecting both revenue and classroom quality. Centers with staffing instability risk violating ratios, quality standards, or licensing requirements. Using our services strengthens compliance, reassures regulators, and protects funding and public investment.​Reliable coverage improves retention, morale, and overall quality.

Our Provisional Educator  program is more than “backup help” — it’s an investment in stability, quality and financial protection. By ensuring classrooms are always covered, directors save money, protect staff and student well-being, maintain enrollment, and reduce the stress and disruption caused by high turnover.
