Lad's 'n Lassie's Home Childcare's Photo

Lad's 'n Lassie's Home Childcare

4000 Barnes Cove Drive Antioch, TN

9 mi

Developmental (play-based)
In-Home daycare
Lad's 'n Lassie's Childcare is located within my home, and is a big part of my wonderful family! I'm a wife and Mom to three amazing kids, ages 20 (about to enter his Junior year at Vanderbilt), 10 & 8! Keeping my family running well and happy is my utmost concern, and the children within my care literally become a part of my family not only while in my care, but for years after! Our sweet little group is always kept very small, so that each child receives almost one on one attention. Because I have newborns thru pre-schoolers, I have a very flexible schedule with my children depending on their changing day to day needs. That being said, I always make sure and check daily with each parent to insure each child is getting enough naptime and never too much, eating well and accomplishing age appropriate milestones. Our environment is happy and nurturing, and often my days are filled with sitting in the floor or on a blanket outdoors with my two daughters for hours playing with the kids and having great times. Books,puzzles and reading are a huge part of being at my home, and we also love to sing and build with blocks-it's always fun to see the children's enthusiasm. I specialize in newborn care, and have lots of experience with helping moms to sustain and successfully breastfeed when they return to work. I absolutely love seeing Moms make it to one year and beyond breastfeeding! Many children over my twenty year history have gone from newborn infants thru pre-school age, finally making the transition to becoming a valued Lad's 'n Lassie's Alum! I'm located one minute from Nolensville Road, and only three minutes south of the intersection of Old Hickory Blvd and Nolensville Rd in a beautiful, well-kept neighborhood. The childcare I provide is upscale and literally like having your own private nanny, but at much better prices! I have excellent references and have recently undergone a background check. Neighborhoods close to me would be Barnes Cove and Bend, Sugar Valley, Lenox Village, Bradford Hills and I am only minutes from downtown Nashville. Thanks for checking our my profile and I look forward to meeting that perfect new child and becoming a partner in parenting with you!

Unique Kids Childcare

213 Heatherwood Dr Murfreesboro, TN

Full-Time, 4 Years of Experience. We are open 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday to Friday. We are CPR/First Aid trained. We will provide a hot lunch and two snacks. We are accepting typical and non-typical children (autism, downs, others....) We have full and part-time, and after school openings available. I started this day care because of my very special grandson. He has autism and isn't potty trained, and he is nonverbal. Finding day care for him has always been a challenge for his mother. We want to offer what has been denied to him and to the special needs and atypical children in our area. We are a new day care, but we have years of experience in caring for children, just not in a professional setting.

I am a stay at home mom and wife. I have a 7 year old son, a 5 year old daughter, and baby number 3 is due on December 20th! I have been baby sitting(also a nanny) babies as young as 6 weeks up to 10 years and/or working at daycares for the last 16 years. I was an Assistant Director at a 3 star daycare/preschool for 3 months before I realized I missed working directly with babies/kids and being able to stay home with my own children. I have watched kids from home since June of 2008. I love teaching and nurturing children. I am currently watching a three year old girl five days a weeks and looking to watch one more child ages 6 weeks to 4 years OR after school care if needed. I am available full-time, part-time, or as needed. I graduated from MTSU in May 2003, with a B.S. in Child Development and Family Studies and a Minor in Psychology. References are available upon request. For more information, please give me a call and we can schedule a meeting.Thanks, Beth 615-417-3002

We can have up to 47 children at one facility, our preschool program, and 23 at our after school program. We provide loving and nurturing care for our children, we get them ready for school. We are big on communicating with our parents, teachers and children. We do potty training when parents and children are ready to do so. We teach abc's, colors, shapes and numbers. Sing lots of nursery songs and get the kids ready for the world. We are big on art curriculum, because that can broaden a child's mind. At Just Like Home/Imagination Station , we go above and beyond the service you get at any day care, we are a family run business (two sisters) that believe in treating each client as our only client.We treat each child/parent as an individual.
