⭐ Better late than never…meet our July & August Rockstars of the Month! ⭐

We had such a fun-filled summer and jumped right into the back-to-school craziness that we completely forgot to celebrate some of the amazing staff who help make it all happen!

So, we may be a little late, but these ladies still deserve their moment to shine! 💛

🌟 JULY ROCKSTAR — DOLLY! 🌟
Dolly was nominated for her sunshine attitude! She’s always smiling, always willing to jump in and help wherever she’s needed, and has such a great “get to it” attitude.
One of our parents even gave her a special shoutout, saying how amazing she is for everything she does at dinnertime to help her picky eater- and those little extra efforts are exactly what make Dolly so special! 🥰
Thank you, Dolly, for bringing your smile, positive attitude and helping hands to the Cottage every day! 💛

🌟 AUGUST ROCKSTAR — TAYLOR! 🌟
This one was extra fun because our KIDS voted Taylor as our August Rockstar!
According to them, she’s “the best teacher” and makes class fun and exciting…even though she’s strict! 😆
And honestly, we think that might be one of the best teacher compliments you can get! Taylor does such a great job balancing structure and expectations while still making her classroom a place the kids love being in.
Thank you, Taylor, for loving our kiddos, making learning fun, and apparently earning the official kid stamp of approval! ❤️

We’re so lucky to have both of these ladies as part of our Cottage crew. Please help us give a very belated but VERY deserved congratulations to our July & August Rockstars, Dolly & Taylor! 🎉⭐

This week, we had the joy of spoiling our amazing Growing Cubs Cottage staff for Teacher Appreciation Week & Childcare Provider Appreciation Day! 💛
Our team enjoyed a catered lunch, delicious waffles made by Perla & Mirian, a snack basket full of goodies and beautiful spring flowers to brighten their week 🌸
We are so incredibly thankful for each and every one of our staff members. Thank you for loving our young cubs so well, holding space for their big emotions, encouraging their creativity, and helping teach and guide their wonderful little minds each day. The care, patience, and dedication you pour into our children does not go unnoticed.

🌼We’re excited to recognize Miss Niki as our April Rockstar of the Month!💐

Although Miss Niki has only been with us for 5 months, she has already made a huge impact here at The Cottage. She does an amazing job engaging with our babies- spending time playing, talking, and nurturing meaningful interactions every day.
One parent shared, “Niki is very hard working, always smiling, and a great communicator with parents!” 💛
Her teammates agree that she’s been a wonderful addition to the team and is always willing to step in, help out, and support wherever needed.

This month we tried something new and let our Pre-K and Toddler Cubs help choose our Rockstar Teacher- and the votes are in! Congratulations to Ariana! 🎉

Although Ariana has only been with us for a couple of months, she has already brought such a bright light to our Cottage with her joy, warm smile, and incredible patience with our Cubs.

Her teammates shared:
“She’s always kind and loving. She loves to play with Pre-K but is very nurturing and gentle with babies as well. She always has a positive attitude and is constantly smiling!”

As one parent shared: “My son is so excited every day to tell us all the fun activities from his day- Ms. Jeniffer is always in there somewhere. Every day I drop him off, she is there with a smile and open arms, whether he's screaming or not. Thank you so much for being a rockstar to my son!”
Thank you, Jeniffer, for being such a bright light for our little cubs and for pouring your heart into what you do. We are so grateful for you! 🐾✨
