Cloee's Daycare

Hello, my name is Candace Green; I am married to the love of my life and we have two wonderful children. I own and operate a large licensed home daycare (also known as family daycare or in-home daycare) in beautiful Austin Ridge, Stafford, Virginia. I am a licensed Special Needs Educator as well as a childcare provider. I provide childcare for up to, but never to exceed 12 children at any one time. I am both C.P.R and first aid certified. Cloee's Daycare LLC was a dream of mine since I began teaching, but the opportunity never presented itself for me to open it up. Today, Cloee's Daycare LLC is a dream that has become a reality.

Working with children has always been enjoyable to me. One of my favorite quotes is, Every child is gifted. They just unwrap their packages at different times. I am an extremely easy going, relaxed, calm individual. However, I take my responsibility very seriously, but not so much so that I lose focus of my main objective that goal being, helping other parents raise healthy and happy children. Simply put, my energy is sustained through helping the children in my care to feel safe, happy, and loved; to bolster self confidence, self assurance, and trust; enabling every child to progress at their own pace, in a way that best makes them feel happy and content. Additionally, I genuinely care about the relationship and trust that develops between parent and provider. I constantly put myself in your shoes and therefore I treat your child as if they were my own. Having two children of my own, I fully understand the trust that must be placed with me and I consider this earned trust extremely seriously.

I firmly believe that daycare can and should be a positive experience for each and every child that I care for. Therefore, I prefer to work side by side with parents that feel and act the same. I completely understand that having to leave your child in someone else's care on a daily basis may not be your ideal situation. However be that as it may, it is for this reason that I prefer to only surround ourselves and our work environment with nice, positive people that share our sentiment towards daycare.

That said, if you re a parent simply looking for a place where your child will be safe, have fun, and learn through play while you re away, then look no further, Cloee's Daycare is the place you ll want your child each day.
