< 1 mi

I am an in home day care with 15 years experience. I have worked with children of all ages and disabilities. I ran an after school craft club, volunteered with Special Olympics, worked with Boy Scouts of America, worked in a day care center as well as babysat and been a nanny for several years. I am Christian based, so good morals and values will be taught. I am currently working on becoming tri-lingual in Spanish and Sign Language. I offer tutoring, homework help, infant care, and educational activities for children. I live near two parks and have a decent sized yard in a neighborhood full of children. I do have one shy, and loving cat who would stay out of the children's way when playing and napping. I have state clearances in certificate form as well as medical training as a CNA and I am in school online for Clinical Psychology. You can rest assured that your children will be in great hands. If you have any questions or comments, please let me know. Thanks!

Welcome to Kids & Company Hummelstown! We are located in the Hummelstown neighborhood, across the street from Nye Elementary and southwest of the N Hanover St. and W Main St. intersection. Our standalone building and residential environment provides a quiet and private place for children to learn. Since we do not have any transit stops in walking distance, we recommend this location for families traveling by car. Parents are invited to park on the street during pick-up and drop-off. Outside we have 2 fenced-in playgrounds: one is for toddlers and one is for preschoolers. Each space contains structures and play equipment that suit the age group’s level of gross motor development. We have a cozy and small site, with 3 classrooms that can accommodate 59 children in our Infant, Toddler, Preschool, and School Age programs.

391 SCHAFFNER DR HARRISBURG, PA

Welcome to Kids & Company Schaffner! This location was formerly called “Aa to Zz”, but has since been purchased by Kids & Company and now operates with our staff and proprietary programming. Our location is proudly endorsed by Eco-Healthy Child Care®, a program that partners with child care professionals to eliminate environmental hazards in early learning settings with the goal of protecting the health of children and staff. We are located in West Hanover Township, in the Brynfield Development area, near the corner of Hershey Rd. and Green Hill Rd. Our standalone building is set back far from the road, and the residential environment provides a quiet and private place for children to learn. We have a large parking lot that parents can use during pick-up and drop-off, and do not recommend this location for parents travelling by transit as the nearest bus stop is about 3.5 miles away. Inside the building, you’ll find large windows that let in lots of natural light and an architectural design that uniquely suits daycares. Along with colorful and bright classrooms, we also have a cafeteria and a gross motor room for children to get physically active during inclement weather. Outside we have 2 large and separate fenced-in playgrounds, one dedicated to toddlers and the other for preschoolers. Each area is equipped with age-appropriate structures and toys that children use to develop their gross motor skills. We also have chickens that the children love to help take care of! Our 8 classrooms can accommodate 92 children in our Infant, Toddler, Preschool, Kindergarten Prep, and School Age programs. The School Age program runs as Before and After School care, School Break care, and Summer Camp. Transit from East Hanover, Paxtonia Elementary, Mt. View, Lingelstown and South Hanover elementary schools are provided with additional cost. Children that are 6 years and under are welcome on a full-time or part-time (3 full days or 5 half days) basis, with backup care being available on an ad-hoc basis. At Kids & Company, we use an emergent curriculum and learn-through-play philosophy. This means children are presented with learning opportunities in direct response to their individual interests and skills. Our children are immersed in experiences that enhance language, literacy, a sense of music and rhythm, and socialization so that they may develop independence, confidence and a positive sense of self and the world around them. We serve our children breakfast, lunch, and snacks each day, all prepared in our on-site kitchens. Formula is also available for our Infants. We are proud members of the Keystone STARS (Standards, Training/Professional Development, Assistance, Resources, and Supports) program, a quality rating system that promotes quality improvement in early learning and development programs and school-age child care. A Keystone STARS designation means that children are in a safe, respectful environment in which they are learning new things every day to support their current and future successes in school and in life.

Child care
We believe that children learn best when they feel safe and are able to actively explore the world around them. Through a balance of child-initiated and teacher-directed activities, we strive to enrich a child's social, emotional, intellectual, and physical development. We provide hands-on learning experiences through math, science, art and literacy activities in order to encourage children to become lifelong learners. We believe that in addition to being well-qualified early childhood educators, teachers should be trained and experienced in positive classroom management, to help children build problem solving and relationship skills. We know that quality early childhood and school-age programs value and actively promote a partnership with children's families. We encourage families to communicate with us regularly and stay updated on your child's daily classroom activities.
