More than half of American families are households where both parents work outside the home. If you are one of these parents, you know how hard it is to balance everything. You also know the value of finding a reliable child care center. At Watch Me Shine, we cherish the parents as much as the kids, which is why we’re observing National Working Parents Day tomorrow, September 16th. Parents need support just like their kids, so our team is here to give the working parents in our community the support and acknowledgment they deserve.
Here’s how child care centers are supporting working parents and their families.
Help from the Pros
Every parent can use some help, and no one is better equipped to do that than childcare professionals. Our team at Watch Me Shine is a group of childcare providers who are dedicated to giving special care and attention to every child. We have early intervention programs that meet every child where they are so we can best help them progress. Working parents can feel confident and comfortable when they entrust their child to our care.
Socializing with Other Parents
While childcare is primarily about finding the best place for your child while you’re at work, there are benefits for parents as well. Most notably, you’ll meet other parents in a similar situation to yours. Working parents can find it nearly impossible to meet other adults and have opportunities to socialize. When dropping off and picking up your kids, you’ll get to meet other parents who understand your current state of life. Having a network of other parents in your community is a great support system that you’ll be grateful to have.
Best Environment for Your Kids
When you can’t be with your children, you want to know that they are in the best environment. At Watch Me Shine, we understand the unique needs of every child and do all we can to create the ideal environment for each one. Whether your child needs therapy services, early intervention, or a traditional preschool program, our team will ensure that they receive everything they need to thrive.
