About the Provider

Rosebud’s Lil' Explorers daycare began in February of 2007 when Rose agreed to care for a 6 week old infant that was awaiting surgery and in need of specialized care. Since Rose has a degree in early childhood education and prior experience teaching small children, she continued to provide care for this infant after her surgery, and soon began caring for two other children. Word quickly spread about Rose’s ability to excite and educate these three children, and by the winter of 2010 Rose’s In-Home Daycare had reached its maximum capacity. In May of 2011, Rose was granted a Pennsylvania State License to open Rosebud's Lil' Explorers Early Learning Centerin Coatesville.



Rose emphasizes the importance of utlizing exciting teaching methods and learning new concepts. From the time the infants are in our care, they are given love and attention. Learning also begins at these young ages as well! All of our children are given the opportunity to learn through creative arts, touch and feel activities, physical and development games, and music infused themes. Rosebud’s Lil' Explorers Early Learning Center continues to expand and to provide a safe, loving environment for children to grow, learn and to explore!
