I have over 15 years of experience caring for children from birth through middle school age. I love children of all ages! I see each child as a unique person who deserves individualized care according to their needs. Your child will not only be safe and cared for but he or she will also enjoy their time in my home! We will spend our days playing outside (weather permitting), crafting, napping, reading, gardening and just enjoying the day! Additionally, I have a middle school age daughter who is my "mother's helper" and is very hands on in caring for children. We have two dogs (Vanellope and Loki) who are extremely gentle with children. I am a full-time teacher by day so during the school year I am available weekends, Friday evenings, and those pesky week-long school breaks (except for February break). ***Looking for summer care?! I am available for full-time, Read more drop off child care in my home over summer vacation. This summer, if you are looking for an alternative to daycare facilities or if your child doesn't like crowded summer camps (like my children), then I can offer that perfect solution. Summer at my home will be the place to be to have fun vegetable gardening (we eat what we grow!), learning to care for and love animals (small dogs and chickens!!!), enjoy story time and crafts at our kitchen table and on beautiful days we will take our crafting outside! Your children will have so much fun they won't want to leave! Best part? My home is close to the train and highway so you can drop your children off on your way to work! I limit the amount of children to 4 so I can give lots of individual attention. I am looking forward to hearing from you and am available to answer any questions!
