When the country started shutting down to prevent the spread of COVID-19, not absolutely everything was able to shut down completely. Healthcare workers obviously still needed to show up to their hospitals, and grocery store workers were still needed to man the aisles and checkout lanes, among many others. And the essential workers needed childcare, too.
For some, that meant leaning on family for support. But when family couldn't fill the gap, there were still some childcare centers open for those essential workers. Remarkably, those childcare centers, despite caring for the kids of workers who were often at high risk of catching the disease, saw little in the way of infections and avoided any large outbreaks. Now, they think the rest of us can learn something from them.
