Tiny Tots Home Daycare

248 Cedar Hurst Lane Clover, SC

8 mi

Hello, my name is Shannon. I have about 15 years of childcare experience! I also have two kiddos of my own. They're "tweens" now, but they're great kids. Currently, I keep a few babies and after-school kids in my Clover, SC home. I am looking to fill two full-time spots and have some flexibility for part-time as well. In my home, I supply everything for your child except diapers, wipes and formula. I have reasonable rates charging by the week or by the day. All payments are due by Friday week of care. We can setup bi-weekly or monthly payment arrangements in advance, if that works better with your pay schedule. Education is very important to me. I continue to take training and educational courses to help me be the best caregiver I can be. I will be CPR & First Aid Certified on March 12, 2016. I pay taxes on my income, which is a huge benefit to you. In early January you will receive a receipt of care as well as my social security number to use every penny you pay me as a deduction on your taxes. This can amount to a huge savings every year. My home is clean, child friendly, and fun! We keep busy during the day. I am very organized so the children stay on a schedule and have circle time as well as "school time." School time for my 3-4 year olds consist of working on letters, numbers, recognizing and writing their names. My 1-2 year olds have a similar time devoted to working on colors, shapes, and animals. The 3-4 year olds are present during this session as a daily review. My infants do a lot of interactive play, get plenty of tummy time, enjoy the mountain of toys, and receive lots of cuddles. Our home is on the corner of two dead end roads, conveniently located near the intersection of highway 55 & highway 557. This location makes it easy for pickup and drop-off to and from work. We have a two-story playhouse with swing set, swirly slide, see saw, and lots of outdoor toys. We have sports equipment. We have a brand new trampoline with enclosure. We also have a huge deck where we like to work on crafts or play in the sand table. Inside we have lots of games, crafts, puzzles, books, toys and a ton of baby equipment. On wet or very cold days when we are not able to go outside, we like to have "dance parties" to our favorite kid appropriate songs. We also enjoy coloring, imagination play, board games, and even a movie from time to time. If you have any questions or would like a rate quote, please contact me through Care.com
