A few weeks ago we published an article noting that Polk County needs more day care. We have had some responses and wanted to follow up.
Lisa Benson of Shelby works for Providers Network. She helps day care providers get started. She can help potential providers apply for grants up to $5,000, get signed up for the food program and help with licensing. If anyone is interested in starting a day care, whether it be in a home or another place, you may contact Lisa at 402276-8445 or email lbenson@pnicacfp.com Also we learned a new day care will be opening in Stromsburg, hopefully by August. The location is planned to be in the old high school, at 401 4th Street. More details will follow as they are released to us.
If anyone has further information, please reach out to us here and we can pass it on to area residents.
