For Provider Appreciation Day, my Husband and I celebrated with having a big BBQ party in our backyard. We invited all the of the daycare children, and their families, back for an evening of food, games, and fun. We had so much fun, by the end of the evening, I needed the NAP!
This is my first year as the Home Daycare Certification Specialist for Portage County Oh. We will celebrate Provider appreciation day with a Dinner for all Providers and their emergency care giver at the First Chop restaurant on May 12. Plaques will be awarded for years of service and every provider will receive a framed certificate for their great service to our community. Provider with the most years of service has fifteen years with us.
