Preschool Social Media

Facebook

Facebook for Preschool and Early Childhood Education Programs

Facebook is my social media platform of choice.  Why?  

Because it's what I know and love personally, sure.

But more importantly, because it is POWERFUL!  

There are over 1 BILLION users each and every day on Facebook and YOUR program needs to be one of the billion........even if you "hate" Facebook!

Pinterest

Pinterest for Preschool and Early Childhood Education Programs

Ahh, Pinterest!  When I was first told about Pinterest and took a look, I thought "Great---now we have a place for ONLINE hoarding of ideas and "things" we'll never use!".

I could NOT have been "more wronger" (a preschooler said this once, I couldn't resist!).  But seriously, I could not have been more incorrect!  Pinterest is one of the top referrers of traffic to my website.

(I LOVE Amazon, and some of the links below will take you to the Amazon website.  If you do choose to purchase yours through Amazon, they do send me a few cents--which supports my coffee habit! )

Instagram

Instagram for Preschool and Early Childhood Education Programs

Early childhood is the perfect business for Instagram!  Instagram is a way to share through pictures.

You can share your "story", your program's story, through pictures!  

Each photo or video you share on Instagram will support your program's uniqueness and help educate families and perspective families about your program's awesomeness!

Preschool Social Media

Twitter

Twitter for Preschool and Early Childhood Education Programs

I'll be honest, Twitter is a bit too fast paced for me.  When you post on Twitter, your tweets have a shelf life of about 2 hours and you have 140 characters to say what you have to say.  

I don't know about you, but I need much more than 140 characters to get my information out there!  However, I've found that in our field, we don't need to make a point in 140 characters, we just need to make an impression within those characters

Linked In

LinkedIn for Preschool and Early Childhood Education Programs

When LinkedIn first came on the scene in 2002, it was typically used as a way to have your own page for an online, public resume.  Most profiles were created with the purpose of "getting their resume out quicker" to companies in their fields.

It is still a great tool for that goal and so much more!  With LinkedIn you have the opportunity to showcase your knowledge by sharing articles you've written and other items that will support your resume.

For business, it is an amazing tool to reach your potential families as well as potential new staff!
