Stone, Sarah dba Sarah's Side Kicks

I am number 6 of 14 children. I have been changing diapers since grade school! Being in the midst of many children is where my comfort is. I have four children of my own. I started doing child care after my first was born in 2007. I started off being an assistant for an in home licensed provider. Us both being military, she moved away then I took in as many of her children as I could without getting licensed, knowing we would be moving within a year as well. It was after working for her that I knew this is what I wanted to do while raising my kids. My husband now works for the guard so we will no longer be moving our family around! As soon as our house was built, we started working on getting it license ready, such as building a fence and finishing the basement, etc. I've been doing childcare in Utah since 2013 and licensed since 2016. I keep a ridged schedule. I feel in helps kids with stability and predictability. I have a 15 passenger van. We go on summer outings everyday. I transport children to and from school, preschool and other extra activities. In being licensed we, of course, keep a state approved menu for the children as well. Working isn't something I need to do financially. We are blessed to be able to live off of my husband's income, but work is something I need to do mentally. I am happier when I am busy. That being said, I have a wonderful group of children and would love to expand with more friends in our home, but I won't be taking in a number of children that would make me feel overwhelmed. I won't keep a child in care that would be causing distress to the remainder of the program as well. We are all about having a fun-loving, welcoming, and progressive atmosphere. You can email or text me with any questions or concerns that you may have. Thanks!
