Department of Education centers for the kids of emergency responders have been full of nurses, teachers, and school safety agents – but not many kids, sources told The Post.

“We’re not doing anything,” said a veteran DOE nurse who has worked at “enrichment centers” in both Manhattan and The Bronx this week. “There has to be a better way to use all the people here.”

The source said the centers are stocked with up to 30 adults to take care of only a handful of children.

“There is so much need all over the city and it just seems like this isn’t the best use of resources,” she said. “I understand why they did this but we have nurses who could be in hospitals right now sitting in a classroom.”

Citing lower than expected attendance, Mayor de Blasio announced late Wednesday a wider range of parents would be eligible to drop off their kids at the centers, including pharmacists, grocery store staffers, and others.

At her first shift at an Upper East Side enrichment center, no children showed up.

She has yet to perform a healthcare-related function this week, she said.

The DOE stressed that the system is still evolving and that more and more kids are being assigned each day. A total of 8,000 families filled out surveys to determine their eligibility for the service.

“We have always said this will be a flexible and ever-changing process, and we’re actively assessing how we can adjust,” said DOE spokesperson Katie O’Hanlon. “We are extremely grateful to those staffing these sites in service of the families on the front lines of our COVID-19 response efforts.”

A WeChat group of the city’s school nurses also revealed widespread frustration with the current deployment and lack of activity.

A teacher working in a Bronx enrichment center said that he and his colleagues are eager to assist city kids amid the system shutdown.

“The kids who are here are well taken care of,” he said. “They are fed, they are cared for. But it’s just a really limited number. If it continues like this we have to make some changes.”

With city schools shuttered due to coronavirus concerns, the city rushed to provide havens for the children of essential emergency workers and established 93 centers to fill the breach.

The DOE vets applications for eligibility and assigns families individually.
