Hi,
I’ve just been reading a touching blog post by a home daycare provider called Tracey who writes about why she loves her daycare.
Here’s an excerpt:
“I was reading one of my last posts where I shared about my challenges as a daycare provider. I was having a hard week and I don’t at all regret what I shared with you all because I am only human, and I go through my rough days like everyone else. But I just want to let everyone know that yes, as challenging as running a daycare can be, there is a whole lot of wonderful things that I love about working with all these beautiful kids! Here are just a few of the reasons why I LOVE being a daycare provider:
- I am learning to appreciate all the simple things in life. Kids find joy in the simplest things…and a lot of that rubs off on me. For example, I say: “we’re gonna make candy apples today” or “let’s put our coats on and play outside” or “snack time!!!” or “who wants to colour!” or “let’s go check the mail” …and they all jump up and down and cheer - kind of like how we adults would act if someone handed us a million dollar cheque. The purest and simplest things excite these children.”
You can read the whole thing here: Pure and Simple…
Talk soon,
Mary
