In a regular day to day basis businesses must face a great deal of external and internal forces. Businesses have many different aspects of external and internal forces they must face in order to be successful. External forces, internal forces and trends continually make the pathway for where a business is headed and where a business stands currently. Organizations should do a SWOTT analysis to examine business potential and business risks so that if any action needs to be conducted it can be done before any unwanted events occur within the business (Robinson, Pearce, 2004). United Daycare has several forces and trends that potentially affect the overall business. Nevertheless, in order for any business to function properly the business must know all forces and trends that will affect it now and in the up coming years.

External factors that affect United daycare are; legal and regulatory, economic, and social. Internal factors that affect United Daycare are leadership, strategy and resources. All internal and external factors have been put on a SWOTT analysis table to see where the business is currently, what the risks are, what the opportunities are for the business, and what the strength and weakness are. Legal, regulatory practices are part of the strength and weakness analysis when conducted by United daycare. The state of GA obviously has a huge influence in how a daycare is run. Rules and regulations must be abided in order for businesses to keep running optimally. The state of GA intervenes and regulates the daycares so that children are safe and are being take care of.

    Everyday millions of people become parents. “Parents of dependent children make up nearly a quarter (3.9 million) of the 17 million undergraduate students in the United States, and half of those (1.9 million) are single parents.

    What is a Universal Preschool? The thought of universal preschool and education has been around for quite some time. A man by the name of Robert Owen was the first to come up with the idea to support early education for young children back in the 1820s (Fuller, 2008). Owen’s push for early education was due to his worries of his factory workers’ children possibly not being stimulated with learning, therefore limiting their chance of a head start in life. Fuller (2008) disclosed that it was then that Owen proposed that children learn alongside with their peers (away from family) by enrolling in a school setting for young children.

  • A Day in the Life of a Child Daycare Worker

    1385 Words  | 3 Pages

    A normal day for a daycare facility is to have many classrooms full of students like a typical public school; however, they are younger children and are being supervised by an adult. That adult is responsible for, on average, four to ten students at any given time, ages ranging from zero to six. During that time, a lot can happen. These busy workers have many responsibilities throughout the day. The most important one is safety. Because these children are so young, they are also adventurous therefore need a lot of attention. Daycare workers have to spend much time supervising these children while performing other tasks throughout the day. Not only do children need to be supervised to be safe, but they also need to have a safe, clean and presentable environment that the daycare workers of the facility are to maintain. One way to keep things clean is to sanitize, in which is a big task of these workers. Children are always putting things in their mouth and then passing it off to other kids; therefore, sanitation is a big deal in these types of facilities. Another responsibility that daycare providers have are to enforce rules. When rules are broken, these providers are to then enforce discipline policies. These can sometimes become an issue seeing that these providers are not the parents of the children thus they have to consult with the parents on certain discipline techniques to use on specific children. On the other hand, these providers are similar to parents in the sense that they wash children's clothing and clean up after every child. In addition to all the other responsibilities, daycare providers also have to maintain current, accurate and confidential client files per child. These files are to consist of observations and r...

    For this assignment I chose the United Way. (http://www.unitedway.org) At first glance the things that stood out to me is how many major sponsorship they have on their web page. Although the United Way does not have some of the elements from the questions we are posed, they do have an extensive network reaching millions of donors and raising $86.1 million through their annual campaign. This giving reports is from 2013 and gives you an idea of the network they have in place to raise these kinds of funds. In Levinson, J. C., & Gibson, S.
