National Child Care Provider Appreciation Day is Friday, May 6! This day is designated to show appreciation to child care providers, teachers, and other educators of young children. By offering care and education to children, these individuals allow families to work and provide for their financial needs. This past year has been extremely difficult for child care providers due to all the extra precautions needed to keep the children in their care and staff safe and healthy. To show your appreciation, consider the following ideas:
- Have your child make a card or picture
- Send a card or handwritten note
- Purchase a gift or gift card based on your providers’ hobby or interest
- Donate a toy or book to your program to be used by the children in care
- Give your child care provider a bonus with their payment
- Fill a basket or mug with candy
- Give flowers in a vase decorated by your child
- Share a quote or poem about teachers
- Place a video call with your child saying “thank you!”
