Thank you for considering my home as your day care for your child/children.Deciding on day care for your child is a very personal decision. It is important to get all of the facts about the facility before you decide.

Thank you for taking the time to visit. Please contact me if you have any questions or need more information, I am available days/evenings.

Goals For Care:
 I believe the early years are the most important for a good start in life.  In order to help your child, I work to create an atmosphere of warmth and acceptance.  I also believe that all children have a right to a safe and healthy environment and should be given the opportunities for developmental activities according to their age, talents and interests.  I do attend conferences and workshops that help me update my program.  I am CPR and First Aid certified.
 
Meals and snacks are served at my day care.  I belong to Day Care Resources food program and I follow their nutritional guidelines for serving the children.  We believe in healthy eating.
 
Moderate exercise is introduced daily.  When the weather is-nice,we play outside games, use ride on toys, take walks and visit the park. These activities help develop our large motor skills.  When we can't go outside, we get our large movements in by dancing to several children's tapes.
 
Early preschool is offered to all children. We work towards social, intellectual, emotional, and physical development.  We incorporate reading in everyday events.  Our activities focus on creativity and hands on projects that allow the children to learn through sight, sound and touch. We encourage exploration, creativity and a positive self-image for each child.
