About the Provider
I have a play-based childcare. Singing, dancing, arts & crafts, abc's 123's, laughing and having fun! Manners, social skills, empathy and humor are stressed. I believe a home daycare allows for lots of diverse situations, lots of different aged children, and different needs. This teaches the children how to handle life and learn how other people play a role in their lives. Daily: Singing, nursery rhymes, dancing, arts and crafts, reading, love and fun! 7:00 - 8:00 - arrival - free play 8:00 - breakfast, free play 9-10 - crafts, playdough, etc. 10-11:30 - outside - weather permitting 11:30-12:30 - lunch, reading until nap 3:00 - wake up, snack, outside play.
