FAQ
Common questions
What is The Childcare Operating System?
It's a practical framework for running a childcare school, organized around five systems: Marketing, Enrollment, Customer Service, Operations, and Finance. It starts with the book, and membership turns each lesson into ready-to-use procedures in the member library.
What do I get as a member?
Full access to the member library: hundreds of standard operating procedures organized by the five systems, marketing assets (including the member seal), resources, and checklists — plus the Procedure Builder for writing your own SOPs and the SOP Assistant, which answers questions grounded in your library.
How do I join?
Membership is by application. Apply at join.yiaschools.app, and our team will review your school. Once approved, you'll set up payment and your library opens.
How much does membership cost?
We're in our pilot phase, and pricing is shared when you apply. No payment is due until your application is approved.
Who in my school can use the library?
Membership is per school. You can sign in from any device, and your leadership team can use the library, the Procedure Builder, and the SOP Assistant.
Can I add my own procedures?
Yes. The Procedure Builder lets you write your own SOPs — give it a title and your notes, and it drafts all eight standard sections for you to edit. Your own SOPs are private to your account.
Are the procedures specific to my state's licensing rules?
The SOPs are written to be practical everywhere and deliberately avoid inventing state-specific rules — where licensing applies, they direct you to follow your state licensing requirements. Always check your local regulations.
Can I cancel?
Yes, you can cancel anytime. Your access stays active until the end of your paid period.
