Mrs. Stone's Home Daycare

Hello! My name is Amanda. My husband is in the military at Fort Lee, and I am a stay-at-home-mom looking to make a bit of income and have a playmate for my daughter, Julia, who just turned one-year old this September! I live in Hopewell, VA. I started taking care of children about 15 years ago. I have worked as an elementary school Teacher's Aide, babysitter, Sunday school teacher, and piano teacher. I am a Christian. I don't smoke. I have no criminal record (to prove it I used to work in Killeen ISD with children and that's not possible if one has a record). I am CPR certified. No cats. No dogs. I'm fine with any age of child. I am very comfortable with making lunch and snacks for your child if you don't pack one in advance, however, above the $100 per week, which is about $2.50/hour, I will require an extra $20/week if you would rather I provide lunch and snacks instead.

With me, your children will have access to lots of toys, a playmate (me and my daughter), homework assistance, coloring (age appropriate), lunch, snacks, books, supervised trips to the playground across the street, movie day, naps or quiet time (as applicable), piano lessons (if desired), and a positive environment. I graduated from Texas State University with a music degree, and as I mentioned before, I teach piano. If you're interested in your child (4+ years old) having a lesson once a week, and being able to practice piano daily in my home, I will give you a 50% discount for lessons ($10 for one lesson per week + the cost of books). Ideally, I would prefer to watch children in my home, but if you live in the next city over, we could talk, possibly meet, and go from there. If you are military, I live about 15-20 minutes from Fort Lee and am much cheaper in price than the Child Development Center on post. Call today to set up a meet. Let's see if were a match.
