May 7, 2010 is Child Care Provider Appreciation Day!

How do you say thanks to tremendous dedication and tireless committment?

Do you consider your child care provider a partner in raising your child? Does your child care worker deserve kudos for a job well done? Show them how much you appreciate their crucial work by printing out, signing and presenting them with a Certificate of Appreciation.

Certificates of Appreciation: Print out these Certificates and give them to your provider as a way to say thanks for the great job!

Did you know there is a "National Provider Appreciation Day "?

Started in 1996 by a group of volunteers in New Jersey, Provider Appreciation Day is appropriately celebrated each year on the Friday before Mother’s Day. National Provider Appreciation Day is a special day to recognize child care providers, teachers and educators of young children everywhere. The founding organizers saw the need to recognize the tireless efforts of providers who care for children of working parents.

In Washington State
