The Early Years Exchange

[Episode 41] Diversify Your Revenue Streams


Listen Later

In this episode of The Early Years Exchange, Dr. Jason Lody explores how preschools can build financial stability without compromising their mission.

Relying solely on tuition creates vulnerability. A single enrollment dip can impact staffing, programming, and long-term sustainability. So how can early childhood leaders create additional, mission-aligned revenue streams?

This episode covers practical strategies including:

• Enrichment and extended programs
• Seasonal camps and break programming
• Parent workshops and family services
• Community partnerships and facility use
• Grants and strategic funding opportunities

Most importantly, Dr. Lody emphasizes intentional growth — starting small, aligning with your mission, and avoiding initiatives that overburden your team.

Financial health protects your purpose. When revenue is diversified thoughtfully, children benefit, staff thrive, and leaders gain the freedom to lead with clarity.
