My name is Jessica and I am an in-home childcare provider. My center is located in my home in Greenlawn where your child will be cared for in a loving and nurturing environment. He or she will be guided through play and educational activities to help him/her learn and reach developmental milestones. Your child will learn the early foundations such as colors, shapes, letters and counting, how to share, solve problems, and explore the world around them. I have a large space full of fun and educational toys for children of all ages to help your child learn and grow through exploration and imagination. There is a safe, fenced-in outdoor play space filled with plenty of toys for them to do what children do best, play and explore. I have been a pre-K, kindergarten, and 1st grade teacher for the past ten years. My degree is in Early Childhood Education. I have always loved working with young children and have over 20 years of experience caring and working with newborn to school age children. We will work together as a team so that your child will be happy and healthy and to make sure that you feel confident that your child is receiving the best care possible while you are at work. I understand mommy concerns so your child will receive warm and caring attention and the respect of his or her individual needs.
