1 Shared Services in Early Care and Education A New Management Approach for EHS/Child Care Partnerships Louise Stoney April 1, 2014
2 What is a Partnership? A type of business organization in which two or more entities pool money, skills, and other resources, and share profit and loss in accordance with terms of the partnership agreement. In absence of such agreement a partnership is assumed to exist where the participants in an enterprise agree to share the associated risks and rewards proportionately. Source: Business Dictionary: partnership.html#ixzz2uojk3xiq New Castle, DE February 18,
3 Successful Partnerships Partners have agreed-upon mission, values, goals and measurable outcomes for the partnership The relationship between partners is characterized by mutual trust, respect, genuineness, and commitment Power is balanced among partners and resources are shared New Castle, DE February 18,
4 HS/CC Partnership Challenges: Unequal strength and access to resources Typical Head Start: Part of larger organization with leadership team (finance, HR, PD, quality support, family support) Revenue fairly stable, via grants/contracts (maybe supplemented by vouchers and/or parent fees) Accustomed to higher perchild rates based on enrollment Typical Child Care: Stand-alone center/home with single leader responsible for business + pedagogical leadership Revenue unstable, based on enrollment, subsidy & fee collection (few grants/contracts) Per-child rates rarely cover cost and typically based on attendance New Castle, DE February 18,
5 Partnerships are hard why bother? Effective HS and CC partnerships can attain: Scale Cost-effectively maximize all available slots in a community Financial Sustainability Diversity revenues, tapping all available public and private funding streams Programmatic Sustainability Ensure that ALL sites are high-quality Cost-Efficiency Shared administration can strengthen efficiency and accuracy Cultural, Linguistic, Economic Diversity Support classrooms in a wide range of neighborhoods/settings for diverse children and families New Castle, DE February 18,
6 Core Principles of Shared Services Shared Leadership Shared Core Values Shared Risk and Reward More deeply engaged staff, who work in teams with a network of sites Central leadership focus on Power With vs Power Over To hear interviews with directors, teachers, administrators about how Shared Services supports quality, go to: New Castle, DE February 18,
7 Pedagogical Leadership High Quality ECE Business Leadership e
8 Shared Services Approach to Leadership Business Leadership for stronger fiscal management: Increase revenues fiscal staff focus closely on enrollment, fee collection, fundraising Better reporting admin staff focus on timely submission of required reports, data, Reduce costs maximize automation, joint purchasing, centralized administration Pedagogical Leadership for classrooms: Reflective practice Shared mentoring Learning communities across sites New models of leadership 8
9 How Shared Services Can Support EHS/Child Care Partnerships Economies of scale Application requires at least 75 slots Administrative costs are capped at 15% for entire grant Economies of specialization Quality Assurance accountability for EHS standards Professional Development communities of practice across sites, with shared leadership, staff, core values Comprehensive Services/Family Supports Sustainability Tap funds beyond just EHS/CC grant Build strong infrastructure to weather economic storms and build links with prek classrooms for effective transition New Castle, DE February 18,

Financial support for slots; bulk purchase of goods and services Pedagogical Leadership Shared PD staff to support FCC providers in obtaining CDA or AA Shared Child Development Specialist offers coaching/mentoring Shared family support staff focused on engagement/outreach, comprehensive services, developmental screening, etc. New Castle, DE February 18,
19 Shared Services is a Framework Shared Services is NOT Simply a cost reduction method Just a provider network A HS grantee that offers only TA or comprehensive services to child care centers/homes The same in every community; one size does not fit all Shared Services IS A fundamental shift in management and staff roles/responsibilities among the Hub agency and participants with a focus on both Business and Pedagogical leadership Focused on finding economies of scale AND economies of specialization Based on shared leadership, shared core values, shared risk and reward New Castle, DE February 18,
