Leveraging shared services allows programs to improve efficiency and save time and money. Read more about the benefits of shared services today!

Shared services as a concept in early childhood is a fairly new, as in I’ve been engaged in work in NJ since my now 14 year old was a baby and that seems like it was just yesterday, and ever growing approach in the field.

What does this mean? There are two arms to shared services- the ECE Shared Services Platform and the work of Alliances. In NJ we have both at at work.

If not you can find one in your state today.

Are you engaged in an alliance? If so you are engaged in the building of crucial network development and the growth of our field.

In addition to providing child care, home-based child care providers like Kayanna often act as a resource and provide additional support to their communities, even while being underpaid and under-resourced themselves.

Supporting home-based child care promotes equity for children, families and providers.
