Owner’s Only HQ

Owners & school leaders are working so hard. But it’s diffused energy, scattered in different directions and not delivering a true result on the effort.

It’s hard work – you shouldn’t be doing it alone, nor should you try. That’s why I created my signature program, Owner’s Only HQ, to help overworked and overwhelmed school leaders create schools of excellence that impact thousands and thousands of children around the world every year.

Inside the Owner’s Only HQ, you will learn the tools, blueprints, and strategies to jump off the “hamster wheel” of fighting fires, chronic overwhelm and time-starvation for good… so that you build massive momentum and sustain excellence in your school week after week, month after month, year after year.

Owner’s Only HQ is built on The Pyramid of Excellence; the 5 stages that every school will go through for the perpetuity of their school.

The Pyramid of Excellence is a proprietary framework that allows Owners to constantly move forward and build their Schools of Excellence knowing which stage they’re currently in and where they need to be focused for the best use of their time and resources.

Depending on the season your school is in, you’ll be in a different stage and at each stage, you need to focus on specific systems, habits and behaviors to get to the next stage. focusing on the right things at the right time, in the right order is key for the continues stability and success of your school.

The Pyramid of Excellence

Owner’s Only HQ provides the tools, resources, support and solutions you need to create real results.

Hi, I’m Chanie Wilschanski

Early Childhood Leadership Coach and Creator of Schools of Excellence.

I’m an Early Childhood Leadership Coach who has worked with hundreds of EC Directors and School Owners to help them build a School of Excellence with higher staff retention, teacher motivation, parent partnership and collaborative culture.

I began my career in Early Childhood over a decade ago teaching toddlers at the acclaimed Preschool of the Arts in New York City for 8 years before moving into higher studies and earning my Masters in EC and Special Education.

In 2015, I started training teachers and school leaders on the HOW part of creating excellence in their schools. I’ve been featured in publications and websites like NBC News, FairyDust Teaching, and KangarooTime and have also been a guest on Himama and Early Years TV.

As a wife and mother of 4, my hands are full and I understand what it takes to lead a large center and have a full-time job at home. It breaks my heart when I see so many dedicated school leaders sacrificing all of their time with their family and all of their self-care (what self-care?) to a school that feels like it’s constantly getting away from them.

Wherever you want to be in 3 or 6 months from now won't happen just by working harder.

It will only happen by focusing on the right thing, at the right time, in the right order and by surrounding yourself with other high-performing school owners and directors.

Inside Owner’s Only HQ, you’ll gain access to a collective of smart school leaders who are all on the same journey with you. Leaders who will give you support, validation, and encouragement when the going gets tough. Leaders who will cheer you on and encourage you when you experience a win or ride a rough storm.

I've been working with school executives and owners to build Schools of Excellence for over 15 years.

As you build an amazing school for yourself, your teachers, and most importantly, the children, I will be there through it all as your guide, mentor, and the one to hold you accountable to the goals that you set.

Working with proven systems and models shortens the learning curve, meaning we can compress decades into months of learning and helps you avoid the costly pitfalls of trial and error. I’ve spent years building Owner’s Only HQ; developing new training, new frameworks, and new scripts to help you build a school of excellence.

24/7 access to exclusive templates & training to help you motivate your staff and build a collaborative culture that positively impacts the lives of children.

Hannah WilliamsEC Director

“I no longer overwhelmed or stressed. I’m excited and energized! I’m now working on the ‘big picture’ stuff and the daily managing operations is running so smoothly with everything implemented that I’ve learned from you over the last year.”

Jillian FarrisA Tiny Lab for Early Learning

“This investment transformed the retention rate with my staff! I’m more proactive, and encourage and empower my staff, instead of trying to solve the issue for them. They love the ownership it gives them and are happier working with me!”

After just 12 months of using the frameworks and tools provided, members have seen a leadership metamorphosis with results like this…

“It’s August and unlike other school directors, I’m not feeling frazzled and overwhelmed to get the year started! Instead I feel in control because with Chanie’s help, I’ve set up the right systems & strategies and I’m ready!”

Rivka WinebergChabad of Long Island

“Before joining the Inner Circle things always got done when they needed to, but... I had no real set schedule for how I spent “my time” getting things done. The result? Feeling overwhelmed and out of control. That’s now a thing of the past!”

Brenda GillDirector, Gillam Preschool & Child Centre

“I am amazed sometimes when I open my mouth and a very professional, well thought out, strong instruction or advice comes out! Not a day has gone by that I am not thankful for Chanie’s help! It has been life changing for me!”

Missy GriffinDirector, The Growing Room Preschool

It’s time to stop exhausting yourself with never-ending micro-emergencies! Our data shows that Owners spend an average of 3 hours a day managing interruptions!

From putting out fires to speeding to the office supply store to pick up ink cartridges before it closes and missing dinner (again!) … and take charge of your to-do list, your staff, your students and parents in one fell swoop!

That’s 15 hours a week, 65 hours a month, 690 hours a year answering questions, managing interruptions, looking up from what you’re doing, pausing your train of thought, and putting out someone else’s fires. What could you do with an extra 15 hours a week and what does that time cost?

An owners salary ranges from $40,000 – $100,000. Add onto that any benefits, health insurance, a company car, as well as your share of the office overheads like rent, electricity and heating, equipment and more, and the cost of your time is somewhere between $50-$75 per hour.

That means those 15 hours are costing you $1,125 a week and up to $52,750 a year!  That’s a huge amount of money to be saved simply by reducing interruptions! And that doesn’t even consider the amount of future revenue you lose by being overwhelmed, tired, and behind on work.

Ask yourself…

  • What is the cost of not surrounding yourself with this community?
  • What is the cost of not knowing how to retain your staff?
  • What is the cost of not coming home on time for the next three months?
  • What is the cost of missing your child’s game again?
  • What is the cost of not going on vacation for another 6 months?

How much could you save by improving retention?

A recent study showed that teachers leaving the profession costs the nation $2 billion each year. When you add in the cost of replacing teachers who move to other schools, it rises to $4.9 billion. That’s a cost to your school of $6,000 per teacher you have to replace! Just think….

  • How many teachers have left your school in the past 3 years?
  • How much could you have saved by retaining those teachers?
  • How much could you save next year, and the year after, by improving your staff retention
