My name is Nichole I have 7 years of childcare experience. I think home daycares offer a more family like feel to the care your child gets. The ratio of provider to children is no more than 1:5. I have a part time assistant that comes in for the larger activites are planned or I need an extra pair of hands. I offer meals and snack. I also offer an educational program with hand on learning. We do biweekly themes ranging from weather, feelings, animals, letters, numbers, etc. Daily reports are sent home as well as a monthly newsletter. We have a playroom, large backyard, pool for the summer months, great selection of outdoor toys, "your baby can read" dvd time *one-two sessions a day about 20 min a session*, seperate room for younger children to nap. Playroom is used for older children. I love kids and strive to help them explore the world and give them that "home" feeling. I would be happy to set up an interview or to answer any questions you may have.
Admission conditions
I do have a small dog. She is friendly but I keep her kenneled in her own area while children are around.
When you sign up for daycare there is a $25 registration fee and a contract and forms must be filled out for your piece of mind and mine.
