Support Learning Grove – Providing Childcare to Health Care and Other Essential Workers

Learning Grove is supporting the community’s response to COVID-19 by operating two emergency response childcare sites – one in Northern Kentucky and one in Ohio. These are the front line workers responding to the outbreak each and every day, often risking their own health and stretching their own resources. These workers can find quality, affordable child care at the Learning Grove centers. “We believe that this is an essential part of our mission,” CEO Shannon Starkey-Taylor said shortly after Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine announced a stay-at-home order for Ohioans. Learning Grove is also a regional leader in providing expert social and emotional support for children, which is extremely important during this time of uncertainty as children experience the changes that the novel coronavirus and its illness, COVID-19, are bringing to them and their parents. “
