Never Too Late for a Pivot

Advocating for Your Child at Day Care, Preschool, and Primary School (1)

Incoming is another story to warm your hearts, courtesy of our amazing staff.

Recently, Pam visited our office looking for guidance on continuing her career in child care. Although she had many years of child care experience behind her, she thought that it was too late for a career pivot at her age. Needlessly to say: it was not and never is.

Looking for a new path forward and at a loss for her next steps, our very knowledgeable program outreach consultant Alyssa, showed her a plethora of options for her career pivot and made sure to connect her with resources within NSCR and externally.

On her way out, Pam mentioned how finding affordable housing was one of the other balls she was juggling. With that Alyssa knew not to let Pam leave without meeting with Alannah, who helped connect Pam with NSCR’s North Shore Housing List, which is constantly being updated.

Pam left with an array of resources tucked under her arm, while Alyssa and Alannah returned to their desks with smiles, happy in the knowledge they were able to help.
