Smart Uniform Ordering for Daycares & Preschools

Uniforms make your center look professional and make mornings easier for parents—but overordering the wrong sizes ties up cash and storage. Here’s a quick, no-stress approach.

1. Do Simple Enrollment Math

• Count kids by age/class.
• Full-time: plan about 3 tops + 2 bottoms per child.
• Part-time: about 2 tops + 1–2 bottoms.
  Order a bit under that for your first round, then refill based on what actually sells.

2. Keep the Kit Tiny

Pick a small, mix-and-match set:

• Tops: 1–2 colors of polos/tees
  • Girls: Girls’ School Uniforms
  • Boys: Boys’ School Uniforms
• Bottoms: solid navy/khaki shorts, pants, or skorts
• Optional layer: one cardigan/jacket color

Fewer options = simpler for parents, cleaner inventory for you.

3. Choose Your Model

• Stock on-site: You buy in bulk, sell sets to parents.
• Direct order: Parents order from your Hemworld links.
• Hybrid: Parents order directly and you keep a small “rescue rack” of core sizes (3T–7) for new students and emergencies.

4. Order Smart Sizes & Plan Reorders

• Go heavier on core sizes (3T–7).
• Lighter on edge sizes (2T, 8, 10+).
• Think in waves: launch order → small refill after 6–8 weeks → mid-year top-up.

Next step
Share your approved dress code and send parents straight to:

• Girls’ School Uniforms
• Boys’ School Uniforms

So your center looks consistent—without boxes of unsold uniforms in the closet.
