Last week, Wonderbloom joined families, educators, advocates, and community leaders at the Utah State Capitol for A Day Without Childcare — a nationwide movement bringing awareness to the essential role childcare plays in our communities, economy, and future.

When childcare is unavailable, everything is impacted: parents can’t work, businesses lose employees, children lose access to early learning, and educators continue carrying impossible burdens in an undervalued system. Childcare isn’t a luxury. It’s infrastructure. One of our favorite moments from the day came from Rep. Clint Okerlund, who encouraged us to think about “education as infrastructure” so we invest in its long-term stability the same way we do roads, utilities, and public systems.

We were honored to hear from Wonderbloom founder Dr. Sarah Stone, families sharing their lived experiences, Rep. Clint Okerlund, Maren from the Policy Project, and so many others working toward meaningful change for children and caregivers in Utah.

The day included advocacy tables from local organizations, music and sing-alongs with children, and a walk around the Capitol — a reminder that this work is ultimately about creating communities where families and children can truly thrive.

Advocacy is one part of Wonderbloom’s three-part mission because we believe real change happens not only in classrooms, but also in policies, funding priorities, and the way society values early childhood education.

Thank you to everyone who showed up, spoke out, and continues advocating for families, educators, and children. 💛

Spring is here and Summer is just around the corner (can you believe it??)! Come with our honeybees class to the Murray Canal Trail right next to our property for a walking field trip to discover the signs of Spring.
