I am a DCFS licensed day care provider. I have had a background check done by DCFS. I have been doing day care in my home for the past 23 years. I love kids and have raised four of my own. I love to do ABC's and 123's and crafts with the kids. We love going outside in the backyard and exploring. I have cared for children from all age groups. I have cared for twins too. I do not sit my day care kids in front of a TV. We are always busy doing something. I teach kids their ABC's, numbers and do a lot of craft projects with them. I read to them during the day and when it is nice out, we go outside. Babies are held when they are feeding and played with during the day, not sitting in a swing all day. Babies in my day care are put Read more to sleep only on their backs. I only use the main floor in my home for my day care. I do not us the upstairs or the basement. I have a play room off the family room so we are always together in the same rooms.
