Philosophy

Touching the Future

I don’t wear power suits, make speeches, or drive a fancy sports car.

I’ve never appeared on television, made a big sale, or been elected to the Senate.

I don’t “do lunch,” have a big impressive office or carry a beeper.

I spend my days wiping away tears, giving hugs, and serving chicken nuggets.

A good day is when I go through a whole day without a temper tantrum, bite marke or a toilet training accident.

My “office” is a room full of brightly colored toys and laughing children.

You may not think that what I do is very important and you may even whisper behind my back,

“What a waste of a good mind.”

But I know better.

I make a difference because I am changing the world one child at a time.

Everyday I’m getting the once in a lifetime chance to touch the future.

I’m proud to say “I’m a childcare provider.”
