I am a licensed family home day care provider in Nashua NH. I have 18 years' experience teaching young children. I taught in a daycare center for 12 years in Lexington, MA. I have been running my own family daycare for 7 years. I have a degree in Early Childhood and have CPR, First Aid training and certificates. I offer a nurturing, caring environment that is geared to each child's needs. I offer age appropriate activities that is geared to each child's needs. During the children have fun having circle time, project time, outside time and just playing and socializing with their friends. I take infants as early as 6 weeks old, I provide port a crib, high chair, baby swing, and exersaucer. The infants have plenty of time on the ground so that they are able to hold their head up, sit up, crawl and eventually walk. I teach infants and toddlers sign language to help them communicate before they can express their needs. I have before and after school care for school age children. I am in the Main Dunstable school district. The bus picks and drops off the children right outside my house. In the afternoon the children come off the bus have a snack and then do their homework. I am right there to help them if they need it. Depending on the children's hours I serve breakfast, lunch dinner and snacks. I am part of the NH state food program so all meals are well balanced meals. I am open during snow days and school vacations. During the summer the children have lots of fun doing outside activities. I have little blow up swimming pools, slip and slides, sprinklers and huge playground to play on. We go for walks, ride bikes and go on field trips to nearby playgrounds. My day care is like a home away from home. Reasonable Rates! I would be happy to give you more info or set up a time for you to meet me. Look forward to talking to you.
