ABOUT THE PROVIDERS:

Megan:

Megan has been an in-home childcare provider for 4 years. Prior to that, she was a nanny for multiple families. In addition to operating the childcare, Megan attends college through Arizona State University Online and is finishing up a degree in Family and Human Development with a specialization in Child Development and a minor in Psychology. Megan teaches the preschool curriculum to the children in our care. She values a combination of structured and child-led learning, and feels that it is important to encourage curiosity, exploration and problem solving in an atmosphere of warmth, affection and respect for each child.

Colleen:

Colleen has been a childcare provider for 14 years. Prior to becoming a childcare provider, Colleen worked at the Department of Revenue for the State of Minnesota. Colleen originally made the decision to open up a small licensed home daycare because she wanted a work-from-home option in which she could stay home with her kids. It didn't take long for her to discover that it was her passion! Colleen considers herself to be a "grandma" type caregiver, and values offering a home-away-from-home type of program.
