You may have seen our Kids Cottage billboard highlighting our staff during the height of the pandemic that read, “You Never Missed a Beat!”. That still holds true today, at what we are hoping is the end of the pandemic. I write this on the very day that face masks were no longer required for children and staff in our schools here in Delaware.
Our Director, Sheri Mark, and our amazing team of managers and teachers battled the pandemic every single day. From day one, we were emergency care for all essential employees and slowly reopened for those who were ready to reintroduce their children as they headed back to work. It was not easy, but we were resilient. During that time, our KC families learned acceptance, patience, and appreciation for the childcare industry that we are in, and we couldn’t be more thankful for that.
We feel as if there is a positive and imminent change on the horizon. Childcare centers are finally being treated as a national economic priority. In truth, and speaking on behalf of all childcare employees, it is about time. We are role models, collaborators, mentors, demonstrators. We are adaptable. We are patient and empathetic. We are community leaders. Most importantly, we are your child’s safe haven and we will never “miss a beat”.
Kids Cottage wants to thank our entire team, our community, and our current families for trusting
and believing in us. Have a wonderful summer!
