Description

I was accepted and participated in the Infant/Toddler EXCEL Project, Keeping Kansas Kids Healthy in 2008/2009 A program by the Family Conservancy funded by the state that is a wealth of information, included free Infant/Toddler training for me, home visits and helped me to greatly improve my childcare program. I also recieved a grant in which we did some great backyard improvements and added more play area and a large sand box!!

I have worked as a Certified Nurses Aid for a total of 2 years and also have 3 ˝ years of college education with an emphasis on Business and Graphic Design. And before that I worked as a nanny for 3 1/2 years.

I am certified in adult, child and infant CPR and First Aid. I have almost 20 years experience with children of all ages. Of those years I worked as a nanny for 3 1/2 years, and have had my own licensed in-home daycare for almost 6 years. I am experienced as a nanny, and my training as a Certified Nurses Aid has provided me with a background in working with people of all ages and abilities. I also earned and was awarded a CDA (Child Development Associate) credential in December 2011. I'm also currently a mom to 2 young children.

I also participate in Parents as Teachers with 2 of my current daycare children and participated with my own 2 children, I love using what I learn through them to apply to the daycare setting.

My daycare is a relaxed home environment. I provide educational opportunities through games and play, arts and crafts, music, exploring the environment and reading. I believe learning should be fun and enjoyable for young children! Each child is allowed to participate and learn at his or her own pace. I have parents that can tell you I have taught their children the alphabet, how to tie shoes, numbers, and even sight words. When my son was 20 months old, he and another daycare child his age both can recognize and say every letter of the alphabet!!! My daughter and a daycare child her age were reading before kindergarten. I have a backyard with outdoor toys for outdoor play all year long, as weather permits. Indoor and outdoor projects are planned for the children. I have a high level of patience and understanding, as I know “kids will be kids” and that making mistakes and being mischievous is a HUGE part of their growth and learning.

I recognize the importance of the bond a child and his or her family has with their caregiver, and work to ensure that our relationship is an honest and open one. I also participate in the food program. I am experienced in helping children learn to use the potty, and this is provided as a part of the overall program.

I do in-home preschool activities with the children in the daycare. They are learning letters, numbers, shapes, and colors and are having all kinds of fun!! We sing songs and play games, too! Music is part of our day every day.

My family is a Christian family and all the parents here are aware and seem delighted that we say prayers to give thanks before meals. All children are invited to join in. We also read books about the real meaning of Christmas and Easter.

Any of the parents currently using my daycare would be happy to be available for you to contact as a reference. I have other references available for your use also, and encourage parents in contacting them. Feel free to call just to stop by and take a look!

Rates on school age children are $60/week year round!
