Are You Running a Program or a Business? How to Shift from Surviving to Scaling

You started with passion, but passion alone won’t pay your staff, fill your enrollment, or fund your vision.

In this real-talk episode of the Grow Your Daycare Podcast, we dive into a critical question: Are you running a beautiful program… or a profitable business?

If your answer made you pause, this episode is for you. We unpack the hidden costs of staying in “caretaker” mode and what it really looks like to step into the role of CEO—with margin, systems, and sustainable growth.

🎯 Inside this episode:

• Why “after-hours marketing” isn’t working

• How a client added $8,400/month with one simple weekly shift

• The 3 benefits of running your daycare like a real business

• Questions every owner should ask to know where they truly stand

📌 Stop treating your daycare like a side hustle and start leading it like the company it is.
