A lot of child care providers do not receive the appreciation and respect that they deserve. It is important to appreciate child care providers with a big “Thank you” for their dedication, commitment and compassion. Early childhood educators provide children with a solid foundation for academic and behavioral success. Child Care Directors, as well as parents can use a variety of simple phrases to express appreciation for what child care providers do. Even child care providers themselves can show appreciation to their co-workers with these phrases.

The Friday before Mother’s Day is recognized as Child Care Provider Appreciation Day.
Provider Appreciation Day is a special day in May to recognize child care providers, teachers and other educators of young children everywhere.
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. The founding organizers saw the need to recognize the tireless efforts of providers who care for children of working parents. Momentum and support for this event has grown each year and recognition presently includes individuals and government organizations throughout the United States.
