Hey there! I would love to help you! I am currently available for Friday or Saturday evenings. My greatest accomplishment is ongoing as I continue to raise our 6 children(2 are now adults). I am passionate about providing quality, nurturing childcare. Prior to moving to Florida, I was the early childcare and youth program director for 7 years in Northern Indiana at a large fitness facility. I have a bachelors degree in psychology and a Masters in Education. Currently, I operate a home childcare. My daytime spots are filled but I am available for weekend evenings so that you can get out for a bit without your kiddos. I feel I have so much to share and I am so passionate about offering nurturing, trustworthy, dependable, encouraging and developmentally appropriate care to infants and children. I would love the opportunity to care for your child. In a nutshell....I am the type of caregiver Read more that is committed to building happy childhood memories for your little one and maintain communication with you regarding all the fun stuff we do each day. ( this is a non smoking home with pets....a german shepard, and a hound mix...however, I do keep them in a seperate room during the day). If you want to know more continue reading....:) I am a big believer in learning through play. My goal each day is to encourage exploration of fine motor skills and large motor skills, integration of song and story into nooks and crannies of our day(for instance singing songs together while preparing lunch), investigation of nature and the world (through nature scavenger hunts, etc.), intellectual foundations....learning about color, shapes, numbers and letters and how they all fit into our lives, and character development...sharing, caring, being polite, and learning appropriate ways to express feelings. I would love the opportunity to care for your child!
