March 8th is a day
to honor and celebrate women around the world. Here at New Day we are blessed to
work alongside so many phenomenal women. In China Women's Day is celebrated by
giving women half of a day off work, and we want to acknowledge how amazing the
women of New Day are.
Mother Teresa said,
“I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to
create many ripples.” The women of New Day are casting ripples one child at a
time and changing the world because of it.
Women like our
nannies. They work tirelessly and love enormously. The nannies care for the
children as if they were their own and give them the individual attention they
deserve. The nannies spend countless hours away from their own families next to
hospital beds and sacrifice daily to care for the children. As the children
that they love are adopted they continually open their hearts to the new
children that arrive. They provide care, comfort, and unconditional love each
and every day.
Women like our
foster mamas. They gladly open their homes to children and love them like they
are their own. The foster mamas teach their children how to love and what it
means to be in a family. They are the ones that put the children to bed at
night and are there when they wake up in the morning. Our foster mamas are some
of the most selfless and joyful people we know and the have changed the world
in ways that they have never known.
Women like our
medical and therapy staff. These women spend countless hours going to
appointments, meeting with doctors, and researching in order to provide the
best care possible. They make therapy fun and the children love therapy time
because of them.
Women like our teachers and support staff. The teachers not only teach the children their numbers and colors, but they also teach manners, kindness, and most importantly love. The support staff clean, cook, and make sure everything is in order. Without these women things wouldn't be the same.
Women like our
office staff and volunteers. These women are often behind the scenes and
tirelessly work to make sure everything goes smoothly. They daily pour
themselves out to make sure the children know just how loved they are.
The women at New Day
are daily casting stones that are creating ripples that we truly believe are
changing the world!
