Free Mentoring Service

DLRCCC are offering childcare providers the opportunity to avail of Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Enterprise Boards’s (DLRCEB) Mentoring Service free of charge*.

Mentors are available to provide support in - marketing, managing people, finance and general business growth.

Running a childcare business in the current period of recession is very challenging for many providers. Whether you are a new childcare business or established number of years, you can benefit from a one-to-one meeting with one of experienced business mentors. Mentors can provide you with assistance in areas of financial planning, marketing,  managing people and general business growth.

A mentor will not become actively involved in the day-to-day running of your business. Their role is to give you the benefit of their experience by providing you with an informed, objective view on how to overcome challenges and seize opportunities.

The normal fee for a one to one meeting with a DLRCEB business mentor is €75. DLR CCC is happy to be able to fully subsidise this fee and offer it to you free of charge.

*There are 20 sessions in total available to childcare providers free of charge and they will be offered on a first come first served basis
