Day Early Learning | Early Learning Indiana

I worked at their CIT location, it was great I love my co-workers and bosses as well. They’re all very friendly and supportive. 

Working with children in itself can be stressful but I really enjoyed working with them especially in the infant rooms! 

The higher ups are wonderful as well. They delt with issues that were happening in the center and actually listened to their staff! They also allow a lot of opportunities for professional development which is amazing if you have little experience and want to continue your education!

One con is that their onboarding process can take a while for some but generally once you get your drug test completed it takes about 1 week of training then you’re able to go to your center and work in the classroom. 

Also all CSP workers are required to take a 6 month program that is just further training and it’s through the company. This goes fast but sometimes can seem like it’s common knowledge after you did your trainings required to start. Once you complete this you’ll be able to join their fast track CDA program! 

The csp when I worked there earned about 15-17 depending on their education (16 for some college and 17 for a degree).



This organization only cares about profit and NOT what is best for the children/families or their center staff. They have taken advantage of the desperate need families have for childcare by price gouging every new year. They have cut down their budget for their meals, extra curricular activities and wages for the staff because of this the staff turn over is constant and the quality of care for the children has gone down significantly. 

This corporation has a long and highly respected reputation in the field of early childhood education. We are known for doing the right thing for children and families. We are advocates for child and education. We are leaders in state of Indiana for training, mentoring and helping all child care providers give children the environment that is needed for them to reach their potential and dreams.

The CEO casts a great vision and is enticing and exciting. Her middle management is incompetent and lacks any ability to complete work and provide clarity. The turn over rate is extremely high around 30% or higher. There is a strong culture of blaming others rather than collaborative problem solving. I was once told by a Vice President that she "never had to fire anyone I just make them so miserable that they quit" 

If you are looking for a career teaching children this is the job for you. Lots of opportunities for growth. They provide education, benefits and advancement options. I have worked here twenty years. I started as a teacher and have worked my way up into administration. They helped me to achieve my Masters and my dreams within the field. If you are willing to work hard for lots of rewards this is the company for you.

This job opened my eyes to so much when it comes to the world of child care . I was always learning something new everyday and getting to interact with the best kids and staff on a daily basis is something I’ve never experienced before. This company is an excellent starting point if this is the field of your dreams. I’m was lucky enough to have the best center manager and best coworkers. We all support each other daily and work hard for all of the kids we have the pleasure of teaching. It can be tough some days and we always lean on each other when one is in need.


What is the best part of working at the company?
The friendships you gain and being a part of the children growing up 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Low staff , staff leaving other staff high and dry 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very family oriented and welcoming 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
7-4/4:30 days, sometimes more if staff don’t show

Worse place I have ever worked. School leaders are constantly changing. They have the people who were grand-fathered in who have been there because of the pay but if your wanting to work there now - don’t the pay isn’t worth it and they will expect you to do way tooo much with no support. Just don’t work here the people at the main office are rude and your the person making the biggest impact and they act like they are. Just don’t work here save yourself . 

The Interview Process Was Pretty Easy. Orientation Is Really In Depth And Helps You Understand The History Behind Every Building. The Center I Work In Is Very Diverse And All My Coworker’s Are Amazing. Of Course Like Every a Company, It Has It’s Ups And Downs Like The Pay.. The Center Runs Smoothly If It Is Completely Staffed But If Not, It Is A Complete Disaster!

Great ethics and wonderful work-life balance. Very family-oriented.  Always growing and working on continuous improvement. Can be challenging with all the changes constantly happening.  For me personally I enjoy growing and changing things up.
