More support needed - Assistant Site Coordinator Kidsborough Employee Review

I enjoyed my time working here. If you love working in the education field, this is a great place to work.

I have none to comment on.

They pay well for the field. Kids and ground-level staff are generally a pleasure to work with.

Consistently understaffed and undertrained because administration actively resists paying for quality training and retaining experienced staff. Making staff drive all over the state to compensate for staffing and training failures leads to incredibly high burnout and turnover. Constantly disorganized and slow to respond (if you even get a response!) because staffing failures means admins are doing group leader work instead of leading the company. All admins are inexperienced anywhere outside of Kidsborough, creating a pervasive myopic "that's how we've always done things" attitude that stifles growth and creativity. Profoundly demoralizing environment for those not in the "in crowd" with the owner and her selected yes-admins. Running child-care as a for-profit venture so the owner can enjoy her second house in Maine should make all the staff look askance at the times that the company has come down on them about wanting staff raises or program supplies. Truly the only way to succeed here is to be prepared to work with no support from administration and cover your own site.
