Wishing you all a wonderful feel-good Friday with this inspiring post by Chris!
Proud Wonderschool moment to share and proud Founder moment to share. In Mississippi, we helped 37 providers get registered or licensed in just one month. That's more than one new program each day, bringing relief to families in a state that’s majority (60%) child care desert. In those 31 days, 37 new programs created 1,032 new child care slots. Please let me say that again—1,032 new child care slots in schools and programs across the state. Child care programs are a lifeline for our communities and thanks to these local entrepreneurs, families are able to secure quality and accessible child care. 🙏 Thanks to these local entrepreneurs, parents are able to return to work. Thanks to these local entrepreneurs, the local economy is able to benefit from increased productivity, earnings and revenue. 🙏 Thank you to our Mississippi Wonderschool team and product team for ensuring these programs succeed. ✅ And especially, thank you to Mississippi’s government leaders for coming together and recognizing the importance of supporting the owners of child care programs. Together, with the right tools and partners, we can continue to chip away at the child care crisis. This is what Wonderschool is all about.
