HEROES OF THE PANDEMIC: Daycare provider hero to parents who needed normalcy in early stages of COVID-19
KAMLOOPS — In the fourth installment of our series “Heroes of the Pandemic,” we recognize the work of daycare providers in Kamloops during COVID-19 — many of whom have taken extra measure to keep their doors open. One in particular has made a difference for her families, who have been able to carry on with their lives without worrying about child care.
Carissa Gobbee likes to be hands-on with her kids, kicking the soccer ball around and playing on the ground in her North Shore backyard.
She runs Small Blessings Family Childcare from her home. Even at the beginning of the pandemic a year ago, she never shut down.
