Wishing all my friends and colleagues a very Happy Provider Appreciation Day!

The work you do is often invisible but is vital to the the foundational skills each of you provide so selflessly to the littles in your care.

You are special. You are valued. You are worthy. Today you are celebrated.

Let’s keep it real….👇

10 THINGS EVERY PARENT SHOULD APPRECIATE ABOUT THEIR DAYCARE PROVIDER

1. They said yes to YOU. Confession: there are many families looking for daycare yet your provider chose you to be a part of theirs!

2. Providers work long hours taking care of your children - loving them as their own! Who else does that!?!? No, really.

3. They change more diapers a day than most parents a week. DID I JUST SAY THAT!?!? Yes, I did! This is not an exaggeration. And trust me, blowouts and the smell of nasty diapers are less than glamorous. Get your Provider nice smelling candles asap.

4. They help you potty train your child - honestly, who else would want to clean up wet p*e messes? No volunteers for that job. But your provider. She’s special.

5. They cook and provide LOTS of snacks every single day because here’s the truth: even though your kids are little - they are ALWAYS hungry. You know it’s true. Also, just fyi: groceries are not cheap.

6. They show up every day with a smile on their face ready to take care of your kids despite their own personal battles. They want you to be able to go to work and not worry about your littles. They got you covered!

7. They did not charge you late fees when you were running late to pick up your kiddos - even though they should have! Real talk: you knew you were late but you hoped they didn’t notice! They did. They just gave you a break. PSA: next time they’ll charge you! Don’t take advantage of their kindness!

8. They did not charge you late fees when money was tight and you paid late. Why? Because they care! Would banks and credit card companies charge you late fees? Of course they would! They don’t care!!! So, thank your provider for showing you grace. But NEVER take advantage of their good heart. Pay on time!

9. They buy gifts for your kids and make holidays special. They decorate. Throw fun parties. And send kids home with treats. Did you notice?

10. They don’t take time off or vacation as much as they should. They’re exhausted yet they keep showing up. They deserve a break yet they know you need them - so they work and work and work some more. Hello!?!? Can we acknowledge that providers are a special kind of people!?!? In a world where most people care only about themselves, providers care about you and your FAMILY! What a GIFT!

Bottom line: be thankful. Show appreciation- providers deserve it but will never ask for it.

Tell them “thank you” - that’s the least you can do. And it’s free.

But if you have some extra money: SPOIL YOUR PROVIDER! 🩷

Keep them home to help protect the many that can’t protect themselves !!

So many kids are fighting Flu A right now, and it’s at an all-time high.

And I need parents to really hear this.

If your child is sick, please keep them home.

Some kids don’t just “get over it.”
Some kids end up hospitalized.
Some kids have compromised immune systems and are already fighting battles you’ll never see.

When you take a sick child out, you’re not just making a choice for your family, you’re making one for every other child they come in contact with. And that choice can change someone else’s life forever.

Let your kids rest.
Let their bodies heal.
Protect the kids who don’t have strong defenses.

This isn’t about judgment, it’s about compassion.

We’re all someone else’s vulnerable child. 💔

Feeling super blessed by parents 🩷🩷🩷
Merry Christmas from our Tiny Tykes family to yours!!
