3 teachers quit the nursery all at once, can't find replacements — do you know how I found a quick fix?

i run a nursery in ankara. i have 40 kids and had 3 teachers. two weeks ago one said 'i'm quitting' a week later the second then the third. all for the same reason: 'low pay hard work' etc. i found a teacher for 5k TL, is it really less than that elsewhere?

now i can't handle 40 kids with 1 person. parents are complaining about the parking lot asking 'why isn't my child playing'. i'm in a bad spot. i found 1 person, a girl, no experience, but i said 'the cleaner quit, can you do that job too'. ooooooh what a mistake.

Data analysis: As demand increases, capacity often drops by 30-50%. That's your situation. You need to increase capacity.

If customer satisfaction is priority, you might find customers willing to pay a bit more. But it takes patience.

Standard method: Set a 'standard time' for each task, write this for the customer. Follow up.

Regulatory requirement: Your business needs to have these and those permits. Ask your accountant.

The most overlooked point about nursery staff management is this: When you try to change everything at once, nothing settles.

That's all, sorry if I went on too long.

Yes that's exactly how it is with nursery staff management. Look where the bucket leaks; pouring water on top doesn't solve it.

i went through the same thing. mistakes made on the nursery staff management side are usually reversible but expensive.

let me summarize what's been said so far. trying to do this alone is the most expensive way.

crrect me if I'm wrong.

Sorry, but this doesn't apply in every case. Everyone rushing into nursery staff management gets stuck at the same point.

Start with a small trial; don't commit to everything at once.

I have no experience with nursery staff management, so I'm asking. When making a decision, also write down the cost of reversal.

Hope this helps.

Timely topic. The real issue isn't the number, but what it's based on.

Taking notes for two weeks yields better results than a six-month estimate. Good luck with that.

Let me summarize the topic, since several different answers were given. Splitting your budget without knowing where you're losing users is just throwing money in the dark.

That's all, sorry if I went on too long.

A quick correction: "secure" here isn't absolute; it just means raising the cost. The goal isn't to make attacks impossible, but to make them not worth the effort.

I don't think this advice fits everyone. Mistakes made on the nursery staff management side are usually reversible but expensive.

If you're going this route, sort this out first. Splitting your budget without knowing where you're losing users is just throwing money in the dark.

Proven by experience.
