Not many people would doubt that child care providers (or early educators) truly have a heart of gold, patience beyond most anyone humanly possible, and the ability to multi-task at phenomenal speeds...all while keeping kids safe, healthy and happy. That's why we love them! During holidays, child care providers often face financial dilemmas in trying to purchase a gift for everyone in their care...which often isn't practical due to the number of kids as well as low pay received in the first place. But, there are many ways child care providers can express that lovin' feeling and warm the hearts of tots and parents alike without breaking the budget!

I have worked as a Child Care Proffessional for over 25 years. It is by far one of the most rewarding positions I have ever held in my entire working career! I am now in my late 50’s, and still going strong! How do you put a price on love,care,and patience for so many wonderful children at one time? It is impossible.
My willingness to let them go at the end of the day home with their parents, happy little children, is enough for me!
