Red Fox Den Home Daycare is permitted by Fairfax County, VA as a home daycare facility as of this year but I have been "babysitting" children for over 20 years in Maryland and New York. I am permitted to have up to 5 kids daily in my daycare ranging from the age 6 weeks - 10 years of age. If your child is 5 and over and needs summer care only, then call me to see if I have an openings for this. If I have a full time opening year round and you are zoned for my school district then I might be able to do before/after school for your child. Ask me about it. Additionally I am a USDA Food Program Participant and I offer a tax ID for those wanting to file for the child tax credit during tax time which is a bonus being that my rates are the best in the area. I am willing to work with you if your personal situation calls for a different rate at the time of enrollment. No negotiations once enrollment agreement is signed and submitted.
