Many are also closing for good and having open house sales, here. The family providers seem to be OK, but the centers are crashing.
Centers are closing from mandates or lack of enrollment?
All childcare (centers and in-home) have all remained open through everything so far in MN. All our local schools went 100% distance learning. But the preschools inside the schools stayed open. The before/after care program also stayed open.
It’s so strange how each state, even counties do things so differently.
Daycares here will likely never close. Our governor puts strong emphasis on us remaining open through it all. Even the grants we got were dependent on us remaining open.
