A practical checklist for directors handling an unexpected early childhood staffing gap.
Unexpected call-outs can put immediate pressure on ratios, classrooms and leadership. A repeatable response helps the center act faster.
Identify the classroom, shift, role level and exact hours that need coverage.
Make any age-group experience, credentials or compliance requirements clear before requesting a match.
When coverage arrives, complete the required confirmation steps and give the educator a brief center and classroom orientation.
Use the school or educator path that matches what you need next.

PEDA-PRO SOLUTIONS LLC provides temporary staffing and workforce-support services to early childhood education programs. Unless expressly stated in a written agreement, PEDA-PRO does not operate, manage, license, or control the childcare facilities where educators may be assigned.
PEDA-PRO does not provide direct babysitting or childcare services to individual families. Our services are intended for eligible early childhood programs, schools, childcare centers, and other approved organizations.
Submitting a staffing request, membership application, contact form, employment application, or other inquiry does not guarantee:
All staffing requests and assignments are subject to educator availability, client requirements, applicable laws, completed onboarding requirements, and the terms of the appropriate written agreement.
A client relationship is established only after PEDA-PRO accepts the client and the parties complete the required service agreement. An employment relationship is established only through PEDA-PRO’s official hiring and onboarding process.
PEDA-PRO may review employment history, professional references, education, credentials, certifications, health documentation, training records, and other information relevant to an educator’s eligibility for an assignment.
When required, criminal background checks, child abuse and neglect registry checks, fingerprinting, and official suitability determinations must be completed through the processes established by the Office of the State Superintendent of Education or another authorized government agency.
PEDA-PRO does not independently issue government suitability determinations. Screening and credential verification reduce risk but cannot guarantee an individual’s future conduct, performance, reliability, or continued eligibility.
Educators are responsible for providing truthful, complete, and current information and for promptly notifying PEDA-PRO of any change that may affect their credentials, eligibility, suitability, or ability to perform an assignment.
Each client program remains responsible for the duties legally assigned to the facility, licensee, operator, or onsite program administrator. These responsibilities may include:
PEDA-PRO remains responsible for the obligations assigned to it by applicable law and by its written agreements. Nothing in this disclaimer transfers a legal obligation from one party to another or excuses either party from complying with the law.
PEDA-PRO makes reasonable efforts to match educators with client needs. However, PEDA-PRO does not guarantee that every educator will meet every client’s personal preferences or that every assignment will continue for a particular period.
Clients must promptly report performance, conduct, attendance, safety, or suitability concerns to PEDA-PRO. Clients should not independently change an educator’s pay, employment classification, assignment terms, or job duties without authorization from PEDA-PRO.
This website and its contact forms are not emergency-reporting services. If a child or another person is in immediate danger, contact 911 or the appropriate emergency authority.
