JERSEY CITY, N.J., Jan. 19, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- For the most part of 2020, COVID-19 has impacted many businesses across the country. Childcare centers in particular have been one of the severely-hit and least-supported domains. Childcare plays a significant role in shaping the future workforce, enhancing children's learning and development. However, many childcare centers were forced to shut down due to the pandemic, and while many have since reopened, they are operating with increased uncertainty and decreased enrollment due to the existing impact of the pandemic.
40% of childcare centers say that they will be forced to close if they do not receive further public assistance.
Illumine helps such childcare center owners continue with their businesses while allowing them to provide quality child care amid the pandemic. Illumine, is among the best preschool apps designed for childcare owners, educators, parents, and administrators to simplify childcare management amid the pandemic.
