Daycare Center
621 N Fairway Dr, Lena, IL 61048
Sunshine Daycare believes that children learn best through play while being surrounded by a safe and nurturing environment. The children learn from the activities, environment, daily schedule, and from our conversations with them. The most important goal of our early childhood curriculum is to help children become enthusiastic learners while in small group sizes and low child/adult ratios to promote optimal development. The children learn how to gain self control and how to have confidence in themselves to succeed in life. We provide care to children ages six weeks to twelve years old without discrimination based on gender, religion, race, ethnic origin, nationality, or creed. We operate above the standards set by the state of Illinois for child care homes and constantly strive to achieve an ever increasing level of quality.

We try to keep on this schedule but if the children are involved in something and are learning through their play we do not make them stop because it is time to do something else.
All children under 5 yrs old are expected to nap, or at least "rest" quietly.
If your child has a favorite nap friend feel free to bring it with them to make them more comfortable during naps. If you are dropping off/picking up your child during naptime, do not ring the doorbell. Please be as quiet as possible so the children's rest time is not disrupted.
Parents are welcome to visit with us at anytime, without notice. You are also
welcome to stay and participate if you like. We always enjoy special visits from parents & grandparents to be "mystery readers", or do a special craft project with us, or play an instrument, or cook a special treat with us, or tell us stories about when you were a child, or just play with us!! If you have a talent you would like to share with us, please do! We would love it!!
