If a child in your care goes missing, what do you do?

Do you have a plan?

Do you have all the child’s information handy?

Do you have enough information to provide to the police?

It costs so little to protect the ones you love.

Welcome to Childcare Calgary’s Blog!

I’m so happy you made it!

Childcare Calgary is hoppin’ busy.  I’ve been working hardly and diligently at making the website user-friendly and workable.  I hope you like it.

I’ve had some great responses from the July Survey on the Seeker’s page.  Please everyone!  Fill out this survey!  It will greatly help the Providers listed with me!  They need to know what to reasonably charge you!

If you know any providers in these areas, please let me know.  (PS: I don’t pass out Provider information unless they are listed with me).

Check out Calgary’s Child Magazine!  Childcare Calgary will be advertised in this superb magazine for the next year!  Thank you CCM!

I’ll post again soon,

Lisa
