Licensed childcare in my home for infants to school-age kids. I offer pick-up from the local Elementary school in Torrance. I offer a very lightly structured program with plenty of free play both inside and outside. Full and part-time care provided included meals. I include an educational element, although it is very loosely structured. I have worked with children for many years and love to see them learn through play and interaction with each other. My prices are also very competitive. We spend time playing with puzzles, books, blocks, dolls, and other age-appropriate toys. We dance, listen to music, sing, practice colors, numbers, shapes and begin to get familiar with the alphabet. Outside we have a small slide, sandboxes, a play kitchen and house area. We also have balls, play animals, and some other fun activities included water play and bubbles. I offer homework help as well. My regular hours are 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, but I offer extended hours on a case by case basis.

I accept children from infancy to age 5 years old. The operating hours for day care services are from 6am to 6pm. In addition, after hour care and weekend care can be provided if requested. Graham Family Day Care accepts Crystal Stairs. I am a retried preschool teacher that worked for Los Angeles Unified School District for 28 years. Within the 28 years, I was a head/lead teacher for 15 years and also served as a mentor to many other new teachers who were just entering the field. I have worked on various committees with designing curriculum. Teaching children is my true passion; therefore, I decided to open up my own home day care. I provide a safe, secure, loving, and educational environment for the children. The children receive a high-quality educational experience at Graham Family Day Care. In a small family home day care, the infants and children are able to receive more attention as they develop, explore, and learn. With such a small ratio, their is more warm and direct interaction between myself and the children. I provide a monthly newsletter for the parents, the menu for the month is displayed (substitutions are available for children with dietary restrictions), on Fridays the children go home with projects that they have worked on for the week.
