Ella's Care

8 Jane Dr Schenectady, NY

My name is Ella and I am starting my own daycare because I genuinely love children and want to provide a safe, nurturing environment for them as I would want for my own, so that their parents can go to work comfortable in the fact that their most precious resources are happy and being well cared for. I have three children of my own, two boys aged 13 and 10 and a little girl whom is three. We are located in a quiet neighborhood. We have a large fenced back yard as well. We will offer healthy snacks and a lunch. We work on our shapes, colors, letters, numbers, nursery rhymes and I love weekly themes! We go outside everyday because I believe it is important. At the same time, I believe how the child is feeling dictates some activities. Ex... if he is not acting himself, maybe some quiet time on the couch is a better fit. I currently have two full time openings and/or several part time positions. I also offer before/after school care in the burnt hills district. Give me a call or text to discuss if we are the fit for you and your child. 518-410-3713 References are available.
