Does anyone have staff/employee handbooks they would like to share? I'm needing to create one and eventually will have a small center so I need to get started. I have some employees now but only discuss things with them and need to get started on writing an official employee handbook for child care. Thanks so much for any advice!

Lets see if this works. I don't mind sharing. I compiled this by googling "daycare staff handbook" and I picked what I liked from multiple ones and reworded/changed some things.

This is mine, but this is the draft I had before I hired an attorney to revise it. I had him add a better non-compete, and also a section that talks about keeping grievances private and off of social media.

I paid him $700 to review/revise all my contracts and to turn me from sole p. to LLC. I think the contract part was $400, and the LLC was the rest. He charges by the job, not billable hours. He works completely over the phone, and is located in DC, I'm 99% sure he's also licensed in MD, so if you want his number, let me know
