Case A – Purchase of an Existing Childcare Center

Ms. Chen was working at this childcare center when one day, the owner informed all the staff that she wanted to sell the center due to personal reasons. She invited interested parties to discuss, or else she would hand it over to a real estate agent.

Ms. Chen, being familiar with the center, expressed her interest in buying it. After negotiations with the owner, she contacted our team at First CCM for assistance since she didn’t have the necessary licenses, service provider qualifications, or experience in running and managing a childcare center. Such an endeavor involved significant financial risk and investment.

Jack conducted a feasibility study by analyzing the owner’s financial data, researching the local market and nearby childcare centers. He found substantial potential in the center. Jack also facilitated a bank loan application to maximize investment returns and tax benefits.

Upon reaching a legal agreement, First CCM partnered with Ms. Chen to purchase the business, with the First CCM team responsible for its operation and management. Nikki Han helped obtain the required qualifications and smoothly facilitated the transfer.

Within three months, the childcare center transitioned successfully. We made significant internal and external improvements in just four days (over a weekend and two public holidays) and recruited qualified and experienced staff under favorable employment conditions.

The center’s environment improved significantly. Both parents and children were satisfied with the Westernized feel and overall comfort. Within six months, attendance rates increased from 30% to 70%.

Currently, the center is running smoothly, and enrollment numbers continue to grow steadily.

Once at full capacity, we will apply to the local government department to expand by an additional 20 positions, in line with the existing floor space.

Case B – Assessment and Rating

This client was referred to us by a friend.

The owner had two childcare centers in a mountainous region. It had been four and a half years since their last assessment.

With frequent policy changes and evolving requirements, the owner grew concerned about NQF (National Quality Framework), which introduced new quality standards in 2012 for improving the educational and care aspects of childcare, family day care, preschools/kindergartens, and out-of-school care services.

The owner approached us seeking assistance on how to bring the childcare centers up to government standards.

Drawing from our experience and the new policy standards, we visited the childcare centers multiple times within a month and prepared a checklist of actions for the owner to take. Simultaneously, we assisted in completing necessary paperwork.

After two months of continuous improvement efforts, they achieved an ‘Exceeding National Quality Standard’ rating, successfully passing all assessments.

Case D – Childcare Center Management Software and Accounting

First CCM recommends and provides childcare-related software training, such as QikKids, to businesses and operators of multiple childcare centers.
