About the business
We run a science and Art program for all ages:
We have been working with children in our area for about 17 years.
We provide opportunities to complete homework, including peer or adult tutoring for children who request assistance, opportunities to read books.
We encourage kiddos to write and give ideas for topics.
Provide space, materials, and activities to support children's interests and curiosity.
We encourage them to try, explore, and expand their interests, and opportunities to learn basic science and math concepts.
We involve children in observing and investigating natural events and objects, sorting and classifying, searching for patterns, noting differences and similarities, and writing about what they see.
We involve children in cooking activities that include reading and following directions and measuring.
We engage children in sustained project work, seeking solutions to concrete problems, observing and recording changes in the environment, and working with tools.
We provide opportunities for them to read for information and reference.
We engage children in representing their understanding in various ways, including drawing, writing, speaking, and drama.
We go trips to provide new learning experiences.
We provide many opportunities every day for children to write for reasons that make sense to them (such as making lists, labeling their work, and writing notes to their parents).
Give children frequent practice and help in composing, editing, and revising stories and other written products.
We foster and encourage the development of children's sense of humor.
Outdoor play is fenced in half acre.
I do offer drop in care.
I work with the USDA food program. I serve the healthiest organic meals and snacks.
I am right by an elementary school and a middle school.
Please contact me with further questions. Email, call or text.

Karen and her entire family are phenomenal. She watched our 2 boys for many years and loved them like her own. She always showed integrity with her openness and fairness. My boys still go visit Karen because they miss her, as do my husband and I. She became a friend by showing me her love for children and she is a treasure. I promise you won't be disappointed when Karen cares for your child/children. It's the closest your kids will come to feeling at home.
