To the Families of St. Tammany Parish,
With deeply grateful hearts, we want to thank the countless families who have trusted Children’s Chalet over the past 32 years. It is with mixed emotions that we share that this June, Children’s Chalet will be closing its doors, bringing to an end a beautiful chapter that has meant so much to our family, staff, and community.
For more than three decades, it has been our greatest blessing and honor to love, nurture, teach, and care for generations of children. We have celebrated so many precious milestones together — babies taking their first steps, toddlers speaking their first words, and young children beaming with pride as they mastered new skills and prepared for new adventures ahead.
Beyond the classrooms and daily routines, we have shared life together. We have celebrated joyful moments and stood beside families through difficult times. We have laughed together, cried together, supported one another, and built relationships that will forever hold a special place in our hearts.
Children’s Chalet has always been much more than a business. It has been a labor of love. My staff and I have been incredibly blessed to spend our days doing what we truly love — not for recognition or reward, but for the hugs, smiles, milestones, and unconditional love we received from your children each and every day.
The memories made within these walls will stay with us forever, and we will always cherish the trust and love you have given us throughout the years.
Over the coming weeks, we warmly invite our former students and families to stop by for a visit. We would love the opportunity to reconnect, reminisce, and say thank you in person to the community that has meant so much to us.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for allowing Children’s Chalet to be part of your children’s lives and your family’s journey for the past 32 years. Serving the children and families of St. Tammany Parish has truly been one of the greatest honors of my life.
May God bless each and every one of you.
With love and gratitude,
Tracy Delatte
Owner, Children’s Chalet
