Other childcare centers may offer hourly or daily rates (drop in care) however the child turnover rate (and germs!) significantly increase with such policies, as does the spread of illness. I believe in securing regular long term care schedule for consistency and the children building solid friendships.

Here we are like family and my home is clean and disinfected regularly to keep your little ones happy and healthy!

OUR ENVIRONMENT:
My home is a toddler-proof play land with a wide assortment of toys and activities both of entertainment and educational value. I know the importance of a consistent daily routine! A morning movie, free play, hot lunch, naps, snacks and clean up! For 30 years, my mom's routine was so effective I have continued to follow a similar structure myself. For naps, I have dedicated toddler cots and pack-n-plays with pillows and bedding. I believe in making healthy lifestyle choices which starting with good eating habits therefore I provide a well-rounded lunch with fresh organic fruits daily. AM/PM snacks are also provided! (Parents to feed breakfast and provide baby essentials.)

Toddlers crave new information so we work on pre-k basics daily: colors, shapes, numbers and letters as well as our fine motor skills too! (For good behavior, PRAISE! Stickers & jelly beans go a long way too!!) For discipline, a firm tone and time-outs are the only way here, nothing corporal. Taking toys away if/as needed.
