It Takes A Village Daycare

***Licensed by the State of California***
***Approved by the Mt. Pleasant Elementary School District***

Mission: It Takes A Village is a licensed Small Family Child Care Home (License # 434413664). Our mission is to provide safe, reliable, and high quality child care in a nurturing and family friendly environment. Essentially, it is your child's "home away from home."

Provider: My name is Cristina (the children call me "Miss Cristina") and I am a very responsible and caring adult who loves children. I love taking care of children and I have two daughters of my own (ages 22 months and 4 years old). I am CPR and First Aid certified and I have been trained in Safety Prevention and Health with the Red Cross. I have also taken Child Development and Psychology courses at SJSU, although I received my degree in Business Management.

Location: Our beautiful and spacious daycare is located in the East Foothills of San Jose, CA in a very nice, clean, and safe neighborhood. Besides love and laughter, our home is filled with lots of fun, educational, and age appropriate toys, games, and activities for children. We also offer many fun outdoor toys and activities that promote excellent gross motor skills, such as an enclosed trampoline, large sandbox, and swing set to name a few.

Meals: I will provide healthy and nutritious meals and snacks that meet USDA requirements.

Activities: I believe that children learn best through playing. Some activities your child would be doing are: Storytelling, singing, dancing, playing musical instruments, painting, and other arts and crafts (including special themes and holidays). Your child will also learn and practice their ABC's, numbers, colors, and shapes. A child's mind is a beautiful thing and I love their imagination, so you bet we'll be going on pirate treasure hunts, having puppet shows, and role playing.
