Childcare Staff Onboarding Milestones

Childcare staff onboarding milestones are check-ins scheduled after a new hire's start date — commonly at 30, 60, and 90 days — each owned by a specific role and tracked separately from day-one paperwork.

A day-one onboarding checklist (paperwork, a facility tour, a shadow shift) is a one-time event completed by the new hire. Onboarding milestones are the opposite kind of obligation — a recurring commitment owed *to* the new hire by someone else, like a manager running a 30-day check-in or a director making a 90-day room-placement decision, which is exactly the kind of follow-through that quietly slips without something tracking it.

Childcare Owl's Staff Onboarding feature lets each center define its own milestones, anchored to a staff member's hire date and assigned to whichever role should own each one, with an optional second-person confirmation for the ones that need it.
