My Little Blessings

222 Wildflower Lane Hillsborough, NJ

< 1 mi

James 1:17 &quot;Every good and perfect gift is from above.&quot; Ask yourself, &quot;What are you looking for in a childcare provider?&quot; If it is someone who is passionate, caring and wants to be more than your child's &quot;babysitter&quot; I am your answer! I have spent twenty years working with young children. I am a certified special education preschool teacher who taught in a public school until I resigned last month. I was one of the blessed individuals who could say she still loved her profession after twenty years. I am now looking to bring my love of children, desire to help parents in need and a passion to engage children in activities ranging from numbers, letters, colors, and shapes to fine motor activities, gross motor activities and sensory fun. Infants? Toddlers? No worries. I am here to engage them in tummy time, peek a boo, cuddles and lots more. Children benefit from organization and structure. Routines help them feel secure. I will provide an environment where the children learn through play. Children are able to build their self confidence when they can learn and explore without the fear of being wrong. Children are learning to problem solve, communicate, be creative and socially responsible. It is my responsibility to encourage and promote these skills. My goal is that your child loves coming in the front door and is excited for the day. I treat every child as an individual and will recognize what is effective in comforting him or her, teaching him or her and making him or her feel important. When your child is with me, he or she will be treated as if he or she were my own. I will provide you with information on your child's day, send pictures and always keep the lines of communication open. My goal is to provide your child with a safe, nurturing environment and to provide you with peace of mind. One flat rate per month for a given set of hours per day with the option for additional hours at an hourly rate. Drop offs or occasional babysitting also available. Looking forward to hearing from you! Hours are negotiable. Rates depend on hours. Let's chat! Blessings, Cherish

The Polka Dot Place

53 State Road Princeton, NJ

I am a Princeton University Alumna with a degree in Cultural Anthropology and extensive coursework and training in early childhood development. I am the former owner of the legendary Tiger Hall Play Zone which used to be on 206 in the plaza with Mayflower Cleaners. It was a funky preschool and play center hybrid. The page is still active and it gives you an idea about the former spirit of that well loved place. I sold it in the fall of 2013 in order to work on some bigger ventures outside of NJ. Unfortunately, the new owners went out of business shortly after the sale... I now own a larger center in Upstate New York called The Polka Dot Place. It is in a commercial strip mall and licensed for 38 children. I manage it from afar. The pitfall of owning such a large center that is so far away is that I am no longer interacting with children on a daily basis which has always been my passion. My eldest daughter grew up in Tiger Hall for 7 years. All of her best friends are former Tiger Hallers because they grew up together side by side. We went on field trips nearly every day, and like Ms. Frizzle and her gang from The Magic School bus we had a whole lot of hands on fun (and a pet lizard too!). I am hoping to form another tiny pod of children that can stick together from infancy/toddlerdom up to or even beyond Kindergarten (I also homeschool and provide homeschooling services). I have several references from reputable and even celebrity clientele. I offer a top notch service with a focus on the whole child and with a unique focus on personal responsibility and civility. Here are some of the highlights of the program that I am going to provide: Curriculum Based Organic/All-Natural Menu Hands-On Adventures at least twice per week Music, Art and Dance Enrichment Early Literacy Expertise Heavy Focus on Civility and Personal Responsibility Heavy Involvement in Events/Storytimes/Activities in Town Heavy Involvement in Princeton University Campus Activities Daily Schedule Dedicated Playroom Six Passenger Stroller In Town Location Personalized Care and Learning Opening January 15th 2018 Enrolling Ages 12 - 24 months (ideally) One spot currently occupied by my child born on 11/10/16 One spot occupied by a child born on 1/18/17 Cost: $345 per week Refundable Deposit to hold a spot (applied to 1st two weeks of care): $690
