How to Use the Wonderschool Slack Channel

What is Slack?

Slack is a chat application for businesses. We use Slack for Wonderschool Directors to connect with each other and to connect with the Wonderschool team of mentors.

Why Should I Use Slack?

Family Child Care can be a lonely business. Slack creates a digital space where you can connect with other directors who are near and far. Use it to share successes, ask for help, or just to vent! The Wonderschool team also uses it to share news, events, and reminders for Directors.
