My Philosophy of Quality Child Care

 

Children need quality, reliable, daycare in order to thrive and grow. This is most crucial in the earliest years, when children are developing at a phenomenal rate. Young children also require consistency of care in order to feel secure. I believe that this type of care can only be provided by a home care situation, in which the child interacts with the same caregiver all day, each day.

 

I grew up in a home day care and since started providing child care myself in 1999. In order to provide quality, reliable care for my own children I have continued my education in the child care profession. My goal is to provide a positive, safe, nurturing environment to all of the children in my care. I realize that most parents in today's society do not have the opportunity to stay home with their children, so I intend to offer the next best option.

 

My philosophy:

 

I will strive to provide a safe, comfortable, stimulating, fun, educational environment in my home with a semi-structured day plan. Activities will include free playtime, structured playtime, large motor skill playtime, small motor skills activities, story time, arts and crafts and music and dance activities. I will also provide nutritious meals and snacks, and encourage good personal hygiene skills and manners.

 

Children in my care will have the opportunity to learn about color, shapes, textures, numbers, letters, animals, seasons, feelings, senses, nutrition, personal hygiene, manners, and creative concepts such as "pretend" play, art, music, and dance. I do not believe in pushing any child to learn at an accelerated rate, and will not make a child feel pressured to achieve developmental milestones. By providing the right kind of fun safe environment, I believe the children will learn at their own appropriate pace.  My goal is to make your child’s experience while in my care a positive one. If your child has any special needs, is on a special diet or schedule please let me know. I am flexible and willing to work with you to make sure your child is receiving the best possible care.
