About the Provider:

My family childcare home is the perfect place for your precious little one to develop, learn, and grow with a mom's touch. I keep the group small for lots of personal attention. The downstairs of my home is a playroom full of fun, safe toys, books and arts and crafts for creative play. Parents can be at ease while at work knowing your child is happy, safe and loved. I live in a small quiet neighborhood established in the Great Bridge School District.
When weather permits we venture outside to my beautifully groomed fenced in backyard to learn, play and discover.

Philosophy:

Through experience it is my belief; the first four years of childhood is the most important in development and learning. In my care your little one will explore, discover, receive gentle guidance, lots of love, and encouragement to help them with their journey to grow and succeed.

Curriculum:

All little ones will learn through indoor/outdoor play, and online computer activities, building skills that will last them a lifetime.
(letters, numbers, colors, shapes, blocks, puzzles, chalks, paints, music, dance, books, water, & dramatic play)
Infants 6 weeks – 15 months Curriculum
Your infant will be loved and nurtured and kept as close to the schedule you have already set from him/her. As your little one develops we will incorporate daily tummy time to encourage gross motor movement and building skills like reaching, pushing, pulling, crawling, cruising, rolling, climbing, among others. Music plays a big role in encouraging musical movements, rhythm, and language development. With one on one interaction, talking to your baby, reading books, looking at pictures and objects will help develop language. For tactile and visual stimulation, your baby will have a play area where he or she will be encouraged to explore a wide range of materials, and textured objects which will also help with sensory skills, we will enjoy outside time weather permitting, and he or she will receive lots of hugs and smiles.
Toddlers (walking) 12 months – 3 years Curriculum
Toddler’s will enjoy activities like climbing, two-hand throwing, throwing a ball, balancing, walking on a line, sitting down ‘criss-cross applesauce’, puzzles, table toys, floor puzzles, lacing, blocks, coloring, music, dance, and singing. We will read stories, look at pictures and learn to recognize shapes, sizes, colors, textures, and sounds. Your toddler will experience hands on arts and crafts as well. Outdoor play and walks will certainly play a part in our day, weather permitting of course.
Preschool 3 years – 5 years Curriculum
Preschool children will enjoy puzzles, table toys, floor puzzles, pegboards, lacing, tying, folding, buttoning, three finger-punching, and circle time activities, among others.
