Beware the Ides of March: How the Pandemic Changed the Way Home-Based Child Care Providers Do Business
Manoukian, Eileen
ZERO TO THREE, v42 n3 p31-36 2022
The eruption of the COVID-19 pandemic at the end of 2019 changed norms in human behavior and how business is conducted throughout the world. In this article, the author shares her experiences as a home-based child care provider during the COVID-19 pandemic. Multiple challenges and disruptions, which were faced at the onset of the pandemic, are ones that she continues to grapple with as a business owner, director, staff developer, parent educator, early childhood curriculum developer, teacher, and caregiver. She also provides her perspectives on challenging disruptions that family members-- especially young children--have endured during 2020-2022.
