Daycare facility improvement loans
After moving to Oregon recently my wife and I had a tough time finding room in a good daycare, such as one with NAEYC accreditation. Talking to site directors and I concluded that the staff were motivated, but the facilities prevent efficient operation, they can be too small for the number of students required, are not divided into classrooms, and/or lack room for children to run indoors or outdoors. I would like to see a loan program created charging interest at the rate of inflation to offer construction or other improvement loans to improve existing daycare facilities. My wife and I are not familiar with daycare operations and do not work in that industry, but I think by working the site directors for excellent daycare centers you would quickly get a feel for what type of program would be feasible. This would let parents work with much more peace of mind and improve the experience of children at a critical period of learning and growth.
