On May 22, 1942, a roomful of little girls nap, unaware that their daycare would be holding an Open House in just a few days. On Tuesday, the 26th, the Tacoma Day Nursery would be open to the public to show off their new wing. The wing was added to care for the increased number of children needing day care as parents went to work in the war industries. The dorm was part of the new wing. Money for the expansion was raised by the Day Nursery Association and Club. (T. Times 5/25/1942, pg. 3)
