My husband and I are Dover-Foxcroft natives. I was previously a nanny for 4 years before I had my own children. I lived in the South Paris area and owned and operated a successful HomeStart preschool for about 10 years. After my children were grown and through college, I married my high school sweetheart and moved to Australia. It's been five years since then and we have moved back home to Maine. My child care philosophy is aligned with a Reggio Emelia approach to learning. I try to incorporate nature and natural learning as part of the everyday environment of a child's experience in my home. As early childhood educators, we've discovered that play is the most important means of learning at this young age. By allowing the child to direct areas of activity guided by his or her interests, it enables them to have a strong sense of confidence Read more and a healthy love for learning. Please have a browse of my website and see if what we offer is what you're looking for in a provider for your children. https://www.sevenlittlesprouts.com/ The name of our childcare is Seven Little Sprouts, in honor of my husband's four, and my three children. We look forward to being able to offer a warm and loving home environment for the children in your life.
