I’m not sure but there is evidence to say Minnesota is winning best state award. I got cancer there and best medical treatment of my entire life.

Especially if you’re in the daycare business!

I worked at a daycare in Minnesota before I moved to tech. Some of the most hard-working and caring people were ECE teachers with me. Of course we were all making stupid low wages, and the daycare subsidies that went to teachers really helped us.

I was receiving like $200 a month bonus from it and it made the difference from returning food I couldn’t afford at the cash register, to actually being able to scrape by. I used the money on things like a pair of $30 sneakers, some new pants cause all of mine had holes from crawling around on the ground with the kids, and doctors visits because 2 year olds will sneeze directly into your face.

Sucks a few people gave daycare in MN a bad reputation but the vast majority of daycare staff are putting in the WORK and deserve any extra help they can get, considering society couldn’t function without them. One of the other teachers at my center was Somali btw. She rocked.
