From the Trenches, Not a Textbook
We were growing early childhood centers hiring staff, navigating compliance, chasing funding, managing turnover, expanding through uncertainty when we realized something:
We didn’t just need more hands.
We needed a think tank.
A team of seasoned voices at the table who had already been where we were headed.
People who could help us go farther, faster with fewer missteps and less stress.
That’s where ExcelAssist began: a roundtable of experts offering high-level strategy to leaders who were tired of carrying it all alone.
Then came Skilled Hive: a digital vault offering that same wisdom in a flexible, self-paced format built for leaders with big goals and full calendars.
Together We Form the Ecosystem
An all-in-one support system that doesn’t just help you grow; it helps you grow sustainably.
We don’t believe in teaching leadership from scratch.
We believe in sharpening what’s already strong.
We’re not consultants you outgrow.
We’re the team behind the scenes helping you scale, lead boldly, and build what you believe in.
Built from Hands-On Experience
For over 15 years, we’ve helped early childhood directors and entrepreneurs stabilize operations, strengthen their teams, and expand with clarity and confidence.
Our solutions were forged in real-world challenges:
✔ Funding delays
✔ Expansion hurdles
✔ Staff turnover
✔ Economic uncertainty
We don’t teach from theory. We teach from trenches, resilience, and results.
