“Stay at Home Order”

Dear Families,

In response to the governor’s “Stay at Home” order we will be providing care to only Essential Workers from close on Friday March 27th through close of day on Friday April 10th. We will reopen to the general population on Monday April 13th. The Essential Workers list is quite comprehensive with 28 sectors listed and can be viewed on Twincities.com.

We will be charging only 50% tuition over this two week “stay at home order” for families not in attendance. We are still paying our teachers and support staff, mortgages, contracts and operating costs. We are truly doing everything we can to have a center/business for people to come back to when this is over. Fortunately, families who are laid off are able to receive some compensation via the unemployment legislation passed. Luckily many of our families are able to work from home while still being paid from their employers without the need to file unemployment.

During this two week order we will be closing at 5:00PM.

Essential Workers: Please advise us by 9AM Friday each week if your child(ren) will be in attendance the following week.

This is truly a very difficult time and we are making decisions that change and evolve daily along with this virus. We are so very grateful for our incredible and amazing staff who are caring for our centers children as well as for our families who have shown so much compassion and support during this pandemic. We will all get through this together as one big family! Stay well and stay home if you can and we look forward to caring for your children very soon!
