Celebrate the Week of the Young Child 2021
The week of April 10-16, 2021 is the Week of the Young Child (WOYC)! The Week of the Young Child® is an annual celebration sponsored by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) that focuses public attention on the needs of young children and their families and recognizes the early childhood programs and services that meet those needs.
Working Through Child Care Choices During COVID-19
Along with many other challenges that all of us are facing in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, families with children of all ages are going back to work before many of Dare County’s early care and education centers, family child care homes and school-age summer camps are ready to reopen. While a few licensed child care centers and homes have remained open for essential personnel during the pandemic, other programs are waiting to make safe decisions about when they will be opening their doors again.
Cyp's Diaper Bank- a Change for the Better
Imagine needing to choose between buying diapers or putting gas in your car. Or having to miss work because you don’t have enough diapers to give to your childcare provider. Or trying to wash a dirty disposable diaper because you don't have any fresh ones for your baby.
