Child Care Association is concerned by declining child care spaces
MEDICINE HAT – As a parent, finding the right child care centre for your little one can be a struggle, but with three centres closing their doors in Medicine Hat, the struggle may soon be finding any child care.
On Wednesday Heaven’s Blessings made an announcement on Facebook that it would be shutting down. The owner indicated the costs to operate, along with the impending minimum wage increase in October, were a big part of the reason.
The Salvation Army’s Rise and Shine child care centre closes Friday while Calder Circle closed earlier in the year. In total the three closures will eliminate over 120 child care spaces.
