We are forever grateful for all the wonderful childcare providers we have in our area. Without them, our business simply wouldn’t be here.

As part of the third year as a statewide effort, and locally planning this event to better educate the Cloquet community on the childcare crisis and how to get involved, Li’l Lumberjacks Learning Center, Li’l Thunder Learning Center, and Kids Corner School Age Childcare, along with others across the community, region, and state will be observing Monday March 2nd in our community Day Without Childcare. A Day Without Childcare is a day to recognize the vital role childcare plays in keeping our community and economy running.

Childcare providers make it possible for parents to go to work each day, for businesses to operate efficiently, and for children to learn and grow in safe, nurturing environments. Without access to reliable childcare, many employees cannot maintain consistent work schedules, and businesses face staffing shortages and lost productivity.

Childcare provides are asking local businesses to stand with working families and early childhood educators by posting a Day Without Childcare flier on your business door. This simple action helps raise awareness about how essential childcare is — not only for children and families, but for employers and our entire local economy. After you post the flier on your door, please snap a picture of it and send it to: [email protected] along with the name of your business so Community Education can publicly thank you for your support on our social media.

When childcare thrives, businesses thrive. When childcare struggles, the ripple effects are felt across the workforce and throughout the community. Business support sends a powerful message that our community values the educators who care for our children and recognizes childcare as a critical part of our economic infrastructure.

It’s that time of year again! ✨🎄

Most of us drive and own vehicles, which means paying for routine maintenance… and that’s never what you would choose to spend your money on. So, why not help a loved one out and get them a gift certificate? Any amount could help them get that oil change 🚗 or new set of tires 🛞 they’ve been putting off!

If you’re like us, you already have too much stuff. Give a gift your dad, neighbor, teacher, or daycare provider could really use!
