I offer a Home Away From Home for your child. I am a mom of four myself (ages 15 - 21) and all children I care for become part of our family, even long after I stop caring for them on a regular basis. I have over 30 years experience caring for children other then my own, the last 6 years of which have been full-time. I have glowing references from all parents along the way. My promise to all parents whose children I care for is that I will care for your child as if they were my own; I know no other way. At the end of each day, you will go home with a detailed list of what and when they ate and took naps. My working hours are 8 am - 6 pm; however, I am willing to extend that occasionally for $10/hour, when the need arises. For the last 2 years I have cared full-time for a now 2 year old, and recently welcomed his brother into our group when he was only 8 weeks old. (Note: I also cared for their older brothers, who are now 8 and 6, for 2 years when they were similar ages). The 3rd child I care for is a 2 1/2 year old girl, who comes to me 1 - 3 varying days each week. Therefore, I have 1 - 2 openings. My weekly rates are $275 full-time for infants on bottle/baby food (which you provide) and $300 full-time for toddlers and older (includes breakfast, lunch, snack and all milk). Daily rates are $60 for infants and $65 for toddlers and older (food as detailed above). I will not care for more than 4/5 children at one time, with the exception of a 4 year old who I watch during the school year from 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm. I look forward to welcoming your child into our Home Away From Home.
