VICKSBURG, Miss., November 7, 2002 -- Shirley Stuart and Lisa Tillotson of Treasures Learning Center in knew the main purpose of their daycare facility was to provide quality childcare that parents can trust. As concerns about proper instruction and attention shown at daycares arise throughout the country, what better way to offer peace of mind to a concerned parent than using whats readily available - the Internet. Now, whenever a Treasures Learning Center parent wants to check on their child during the day, they simply go to www.treasureslearning.com and type in their secure username and password. They can view their child online in various classroom activities through the use of high quality color cameras and proprietary software provided by Micro Systems of Vicksburg.

Parents love this feature," stated Ms. Tillotson. It demonstrates the commitment we have to our customers by providing visual proof of the care that their child receives."    Michelle Logue has a son who attends Treasures Learning Center and values the security that she feels knowing that she can watch him through the day. We are able to see what he is doing, the fun that he is having, and we know that he is okay. Even while we are apart, I feel more connected because I can see him."

Wayne Procell of Micro Systems in Vicksburg added, We installed a 12 camera system that allows parents and relatives to view their children in the classroom as it happens from anywhere in the world. With the help of U.S. NetworX, we were able to make the website available online to those people. This is a new concept in childcare and is a huge success with parents." U.S. NetworX Vice President of Sales and Marketing Meg Martin said, We were thrilled to be a part of what I believe will be a growing trend in the childcare industry. To be able to offer a service such as this further iterates the fact that the Internet is a positive tool that can be used in a variety of ways."
