Mother of a 5 year old girl, step mom to a 3 year old boy, great with kids. I home schooled my little girl for the majority of her pre-kindergarten life, as well as I used to be an after-school program art teacher. Your child will be fed home-cooked, nutritious food, engaged in play, taught, read to, played with. Music, dance, arts and crafts. Lots of fun to be had. I am firm, I believe manners are important and great behavior is rewarded. I have a large home, and because of our children, toys, games, and books abound! Non-smoking, drug free environment. Feel free to ask me anything! Available for full-time, part-time, and emergency sitting.

Creative Learning Childcare

636 Gerry Street Woodstock, IL

10 mi

Creative Learning Childcare is a licensed, family daycare located on Gerry Street, just blocks from Emricson Park, Woodstock Square and Dean Street Elementary School. I've worked with children over the past 23 years from ages 5 weeks to 18 years (special needs included). I owned a licensed daycare in Palatine and Barrington many years ago, and cared for and watched grow to adulthood many wonderful children. Several of whom graduated college and went on to very lucrative careers, (2 doctors). How can anyone ask for a better job than this!? When I moved to Woodstock 5 years ago, I went back to college and received my certificate in Early Childhood Education, along with taking many other courses associated with early childhood growth and development, attending seminars, and continue to take online courses through INCCRRA. I then worked with the school district for several years as a building supervisor with the after school program at both Dean street and Verda Dierzen Early Learning Center with preschool through 5th grade children. I then made the decision to once again open an in-home childcare in order to better serve the families whose children I care for. With over 20 years' experience in the child care field, certificates in Early Childhood growth/development, First Aid/CPR-certified, and fully licensed in the state of Illinois, CLC is dedicated to making your child and family feel like part of our family, with low maximum enrollment, your child will receive more one-on-one care to better serve their needs. I have a daily schedule which includes but not limited to, free outdoor/indoor imaginative play, sensory play, reading, math, and writing skill development, music and movement, arts and crafts, science, and dedicated homework time! *Movie, games and special snack Fridays! Creative Learning Childcare is the place for your child to feel at home in my home! Competitive rates, 1/2 off 1 week following 3 consecutive months of care, as well as 10% off second child. Located near downtown Woodstock, Emricson Park and Dean Street School, with drop-off/pick-up from Dean Street daily for Dean students. Full day, part day and before/after school rates available for infants, toddlers and school-aged children. Please inquire. For more information or to schedule a visit, please contact Ms. Kim @ (815) 596-0170. or email; kimscreativelearningchildcare@gmail.com

Miss Kim's Learning Ladder

2469 Cascade Court Wauconda, IL

Miss Kim's Learning Ladder is a new in home day care center. In my home your child will receive exceptional care while having fun and learning! A day in my center includes play time, age appropriate crafts and lessons, healthy meals, naps, circle time, stories, silly song/dance time. I have over 10 years experience with working with children of all ages, 2 years experience in working in a preschool environment, and 2 years working for a company who manufactures and distributes educational tools and toys for children of all ages. I am also a mom, which is my favorite experience! I know and understand the frustrations in finding a good day care while you're away at work, I have been there as well as many close friends. This is why I decided to leave work, open my own certified day care center (with very affordable rates) where parents are confident their child is in great hands! I build lessons and goal sheets based on what YOUR needs are for your child(ren) and I work closely with you the parents on obtaining those goals (be it weaning, potty training, behavioral or just help learning basic age appropriate goals). I work on gross on fine motor skills in infants as well as preschoolers. In my home you can expect a small setting with few children. I do this so I can spend quality time with each child. In some cases less really is more! I feel that the more children you have in a center, the less you can guarantee safety, education and development! I am available Monday-Friday from 6am to 6pm, full-time as well as part time, and before and after school care. Please contact me to set up an in home meeting! Thank you, Kim
