Staffing challenges exacerbate child care crisis in Eagle County

Letter: Every child deserves quality care

I have been very interested in the articles related to the shortage of early childhood education and care in Eagle County. I am retired, from Pennsylvania, spending the summers here in the beautiful mountains with my grandchildren. I devoted my professional life as director of a National Association for the Education of Young Children-accredited early childhood center of excellence, and I encountered all of the roadblocks to quality care that have been mentioned in the articles. We were lucky to enroll my grandchildren in the Children’s Garden of Learning. Every child is entitled to a preschool education of that caliber. I am in total agreement with all of Maggie Swonger’s points about the challenges of child care, but most important is that the financial needs of the field cannot be passed along to the consumers.

That was certainly the case on the afternoon of July 22 when a mudslide, suddenly and without warning, swept through Avon. Residents in the town’s two most heavily impacted housing complexes the Sonnen Halde and Beaver Bench condominiums said they did not know where to turn as mud and debris filled their homes. Some of those residents were left with a feeling of dread at the sight of rain clouds.
