Churcher Group

We empower Alberta childcare operators with tailored solutions to thrive in a dynamic landscape. Our expertise spans funding navigation, guiding providers through Alberta’s Affordability Grants, CWELCC models, and Day Home funding while addressing nonprofit challenges. We streamline licensing and compliance, supporting daycare, preschool, and out-of-school care with AHS regulations and Alberta Child Care Act policies. Our team designs engaging, inclusive curricula—blending play-based learning with STEM/STEAM, Montessori, or nature-based approaches. For business growth, we offer financial planning, market analysis, and sustainable restructuring. We champion advocacy, equipping operators with training and policy submissions to shape Alberta Children’s Services decisions. Workforce development is key: we help recruit and retain ECEs through custom professional development and leadership programs. Financially, we drive profitability with strategic models and explore for-profit vs. nonprofit paths. For inclusivity, we secure PUF funding, support Indigenous programming, and enhance rural access to specialized training. We boost community ties by educating parents on subsidies, crafting targeted marketing, and forging corporate partnerships. Our branding strategies elevate enrollment in high-demand areas like Calgary and Edmonton. Risk management ensures compliance with HR, child protection, and OHS standards. We align programs with Alberta’s ELCC Framework, supporting AECEA/FLIGHT accreditation. Innovatively, we develop on-site industry care, co-working solutions, and flexible rural childcare models. Partner with us to deliver quality, sustainability, and growth for Alberta’s childcare sector.
