Care Providers

They take to you, something about what you do
Babies always smile and coo their way, into your heart
And families, in you they believe
in what you got up your sleeve, those arms, reaching out.Care Providers of little ones
the circle's wider for all you've done;

Care Providers, we're overdue
to take good care, care of you.

Development, take a warm environment
Lots of encouragement and love to go around
From what they say, a child=s work is play
Couldn=t be a better way than that, with you.

Care Providers of little ones
the circle's wider for all you=ve done;
Care Providers, we=re overdue
to take good care, care of you.

Moms and Dads, care for kids
They are the future, they are the bridge
It takes a village, it takes a town
To come together, it=ll go around.

They take to you, something about what you do
Babies always smile and coo their way, into your heart
From what they say, a child=s work is play
Couldn't be a better way than that, with you.

Care Providers of little ones
the circle's wider for all you've done;
Care Providers, we're overdue
to take good care, care of you.
