Practical Live Training for Aspiring Childcare Trainers, Facilitators & Business School Founders
A Childcare Business School is a training and development model where childcare knowledge, professional experience and specialist expertise can be used to support other childcare professionals, entrepreneurs and aspiring business owners.
Building a Childcare Business School involves more than simply delivering training. It requires a clear training offer, confident facilitation, practical systems, learner support, professional visibility, organisational relationships and a structured approach to quality and growth.
The KL Childcare Academy Start Your Own Childcare Business School Workshop Series gives you the opportunity to explore different parts of this journey through focused, practical live training.
Whether you are new to training, already supporting others informally, an experienced childcare professional, developing a training centre, or beginning to build your own Childcare Business School, you can choose the workshop most relevant to where you are now.
You do not need to complete the full series. Attend one workshop, several workshops, or progress through all six as part of the complete Start Your Own Childcare Business School Specialist Programme.

Each Start Your Own Childcare Business School workshop is designed as a focused, practical learning experience that can be attended independently, helping you develop specific parts of your training offer or Business School without trying to build everything at once.
