EXCITING NEWS: New Hours to Better Serve OUR Families

Hey Kidding Around families (and future families!),

I'm so excited to share some big news with you all—we're extending our hours of operation!

Kidding Around will now be open from 7AM - 11PM, Sunday through Saturday!

Why the change? Because YOU asked for it. And honestly, because I see you. I see the juggling act. I see parents working multiple jobs, dealing with unpredictable schedules, and doing everything humanly possible to provide for your babies. Right now, with everything going on in our economy, families need MORE support, not less.

THIS IS WHAT COMMUNITY LOOKS LIKE

You know that old saying, "It takes a village to raise a child"? Well, we're YOUR village. And villages don't clock out at 5:30 PM.

When I started Kidding Around over 10 years ago, my mission was simple: create a place where children feel safe, loved, and protected while their parents handle business. That mission hasn't changed—but our world has. And we're adapting because that's what families do for each other.

MORE THAN JUST CHILDCARE

These new hours aren't just about convenience (though let's be real, that matters too). They're about:

→ That single mom working two jobs who can finally breathe a little easier

→ The dad whose shift doesn't end until 6:00PM

→ The family where both parents are essential workers with zero schedule flexibility

→ The grandmother raising her grandkids who needed just a little more time in her day

This is us saying: We've got you.

LOVE THY NEIGHBOR ISN'T JUST A SAYING

Right now, we're all feeling the pressure. Rent's up. Groceries cost more. Everything feels heavier. But here's what I know for sure—when times get tough, we don't pull away from each other. We lean IN.

At Kidding Around, we're not just watching your kids. We're holding space for your family during the hard seasons. We're the consistent, stable place when everything else feels uncertain. We're proof that people still show up for each other.

LICENSED, PROFESSIONAL, AND HERE FOR YOU

Being a fully licensed childcare center means we're meeting the highest standards of safety, education, and care. But being FLEXIBLE means we understand that life doesn't fit into a perfect 9-to-5 box—especially not right now.

Your babies deserve quality care. And you deserve a childcare partner who gets it.

WE'RE IN THIS TOGETHER

So yes, we're changing our hours. But really, we're just recommitting to our original promise: to be the village you can count on.

If these new hours help your family, we'd love to talk. If you know someone struggling to find care that fits their schedule, send them our way. And if you just need to know someone's in your corner right now—we are.

Because at the end of the day, Kidding Around isn't just a business. It's a community. It's family. It's what happens when we love our neighbors like we mean it.

Let's keep taking care of each other.

With love,

Roberta Fisher
