This month, we’re celebrating the vibrant cultures, traditions, stories, and contributions of Hispanic and Latino families in our Giraffe Laugh community.
We’re especially proud of our bilingual State Street center, where children get to learn, grow, and celebrate the languages and cultures that make them unique.
“Juntos estamos fuerte”. Together, we are strong.
Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! 💛

Happy Labor Day from Giraffe Laugh!
Today, we celebrate the people whose hard work helps our community grow: our incredible teachers, staff, families, volunteers, donors, and all community partners. We are so grateful for all you do to help create stronger families and stronger futures for Idaho children.
We hope today gives you a little extra time to rest, recharge, and enjoy the people you love.
All Giraffe Laugh centers and our administrative office are closed today in observance of Labor Day.
A BIG thank you to Sierra Sandison with Trademark Creative Studio for bringing some extra magic to the course!
Sierra used her talent and creativity to create the amazing 3D-printed giraffe trophies for our Little Swings Fore Big Dreams first-place winners, and we could not have loved them more! Thank you, Sierra, for helping us celebrate our champions in such a fun, one-of-a-kind way. 💛
Today, we are celebrating Giraffe Laugh's Executive Director, Lori Delyea Fascilla, and her incredible 35 years of dedicated service to children and families across the Treasure Valley!
Our Center Directors gathered to celebrate Lori’s journey, leadership, and the many memories made along the way. For 35 years, Lori has helped grow Giraffe Laugh’s mission around one powerful belief: EVERY child deserves the opportunity to thrive. That belief remains at the heart of our work today and is made possible by a community that continues to believe in and support our mission.
If you have any favorite memories with Lori, we’d love to hear it! Share your stories, photos, or well wishes in the comments below as we celebrate 35 incredible years of impact. 👇

One phone call changed everything for an Idaho mom of six.
During one of the hardest seasons of her life, she was working full-time, caring for two babies, and trying to build a better future for her family. Trusting someone else with her children felt scary, until she found Giraffe Laugh.
What started as a search for childcare became something much bigger. Access to quality child care and early childhood education can change the path for an entire family.
