2023 Lobby Day for Community-Based Organizations
On November 6, 2023, members from Community-Based Organizations around Saskatchewan met in Regina for a lobby day to ask the government to do more for CBO workers.
There must have been a greater force at work when Caroline applied for a job in her urban childcare facility. She sent in what she describes as “just a random application for a job that turned into my career.” Fifteen years and a pandemic later, Caroline is still as excited about her job as when she began.
Watching children learn and get excited about learning is an amazing part of Caroline’s job, but that is far from all she accomplishes. Caroline also completes monthly planning programming for children ages 3-12, and engages children in age appropriate activities using a child-lead approach. Caroline uses all the skills that she learned in her ECE Level Three Diploma, and all the experience she has gathered over the years to make the best environment possible for the children in her care.
Today is Early Childhood Educator Appreciation Day, a time we set aside to applaud and honour our ECEs. They are a part of our Community Based Organizations, CBOs, and they provide vital services to many people. Caroline, you and your coworkers make a world of difference to the children you care for and their families. Thank you for all that you do for them and your commitment to caring. Make sure that today you look for ECEs in your unit or community and give them a big “Thank you!”
