A child care newsletter can also <strong>boost professionalism <\/strong>and BONUS! it can serve as a <strong>built-in marketing tool<\/strong> to remind your clients of all of the wonderful things happening in your program!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" src=\"https://theempoweredprovider.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/back-view-backpack-boy-207697-1-400x600.jpg\" alt=\"preschool boy off to family child care program with newsletter\" class=\"wp-image-3199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theempoweredprovider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/back-view-backpack-boy-207697-1-400x600.jpg 400w, https://theempoweredprovider.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/back-view-backpack-boy-207697-1.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A monthly newsletter serves as a dynamite way to <strong>build community<\/strong>. When announcing birthdays, anniversaries, or the arrival of a new pal you are giving<strong> special attention to individuals in your program <\/strong>which is a great way to show how much you care for the kids (or families) in your program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, your newsletter is a place to <strong>post friendly reminders about <a href=\"https://theempoweredprovider.com/child-care-policies-and-procedures/\">policies or procedures<\/a><\/strong> that may often be ignored or forgotten. For example, if cold and flu season is approaching, you can add information about your sick policy; reminding families what to look for when deciding whether or not to keep their child home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2>What Should Be Included in a Newsletter for Parents? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Holidays<\/li><li>Birthdays<\/li><li><a href=\"https://theempoweredprovider.com/home-daycare-vacation-policy-guide/\">Program Closings<\/a><\/li><li>Event Reminders<\/li><li>Policy Reminders<\/li><li>Parenting Tips<\/li><li>Quick Recipe Ideas<\/li><li>Field Trip Reminders<\/li><li>Wish List Items that your Group May Need<\/li><li>Welcoming a New Student or Helper<\/li><li>Volunteer Opportunities within Your Program<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2>What Not to Put in Your Newsletter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s never a good idea to rant or vent in your newsletter. This communication tool should be positive and uplifting, not nagging. If you are having a serious problem with one family following a policy or guideline, it is always best to have a private conversation with them rather than posting a blanket announcement in your bulletin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2>Daycare Newsletter Ideas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some child care providers steer clear of writing a child care newsletter because they are worried they won&#8217;t have enough to write about each month. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve done the brainstorming for you!
