#TeachersMatter promotion

About our #TeachersMatter Award:

Every year, Child Care Counts looks forward to rewarding one exceptional early learning teacher, in the greater DC metro area, for their unwavering dedication to the profession. We look for someone whose passion for teaching and nurturing young minds is demonstrated by each interaction with their students.

 

Although we choose only one teacher each year, our goal is to inspire ALL early learning teachers and make it known that their dedication to providing a safe and nurturing  learning environment for each child is seen and valued.  

​

Congratulations 

Mideccy Ruiz!!
