Congratulations to Hutchinson childcare provider Margaret Brock of Wildflower Daycare, who was nominated as our Provider of the Month by one of the parents she provides care for.
“Margaret is amazing! She has the biggest heart, loves the children like her own and they are so happy in her care! She constantly has all sorts of activities for them to do, different units to focus on each month and free play as well. She provides us with a monthly newsletter and weekly meal calendar. I will be forever thankful that we were led to her. I constantly recommend Margaret and am always raving about her. She never gets recognized enough.”
Margaret decided to begin her career in childcare after her second child was born, and when she realized that she could use her experience as a teacher to provide education for children in a new way.
“I was a first-grade teacher, and my son was in daycare. I hated leaving him every day. Then when I found out I was pregnant with my daughter, I decided to do whatever I needed to do to be home with them. I had a teacher friend who started her own daycare, and I was seeing all the educational things she was doing with her kids, and I thought, ‘That’s something I can do.’ I can use my education as a teacher, be home with my kids, and make an income.”
Beyond the benefit of being able to stay home with her own children, Margaret loves the bond she’s been able to make with the families she provides care for.
“I love the relationships I’ve built with the families. After being a teacher, I knew I would love the relationship with the kids, but the families, I just love them. They've become some of our best friends. We just had my son’s birthday, and we invited all of the daycare kids and their families to celebrate with us. There have been some really hard times that the families have gone through, and really good times, and to be together through those times has been really good.”
