Last weekend I was biking through Brooklyn. At an intersection, a daycare program was waiting to cross the street, all the kiddos holding onto a handle of a shared rope.

The walk sign lights up. Before the first child stepped into the crosswalk, a young man who worked at the program (as indicated by their shared—adorable—shirts) steps out and stands in the crosswalk, putting his body between the children and the cars.

I know it's a simple act, but it's a reminder of how much skill, attention, and care childcare providers put into their jobs in every moment to ensure our children are able to learn and play in a safe and loving environment.

As we continue to fight for investment in childcare, this (*gestures at this thread, gestures all around*) is why it's important! Happy Friday.

🔍 Clear policies are the foundation for building strong relationships between childcare providers and families. When expectations are clearly outlined and communicated, both parties can feel confident and supported in their roles.
