Auntie Em's Childcare

CLOSED DURING SUMMERS AND OTHER SCHOOL BREAKS--- If you are a teacher or work for a school district, we may be a great fit!

As both a childcare provider, and a mother who has previously worked outside the home myself, I understand firsthand how important it is to have a dependable, qualified childcare provider that loves your child as you do, and treats them as their own! There's nothing better than getting a picture text message during the day to see the fun your child is having, or a daily written summary of your child's moods, eating habits, and activities, and knowing that they are well taken care of in your absence. Good communication between the parent and provider helps make sure all parties are happy, especially your little one. I understand the dynamic of being a working mother and would love to get to know your child to see if my family childcare would be a good fit!

Just as I take my own children to the park, story-time at the library, and playgroup, I would consider your child a member of the family while at our home, and expected to join in on the fun! I respect individual parenting styles, communicate well about routines and preferences, understand the seriousness of food allergies, teach preschool objectives while playing, such as colors, numbers, patterns, and sight words. I also enjoy sharing my musical talents of singing and playing the piano with children. The kids also love to help with the vegetable garden, which gets them excited about eating healthy!

As a college graduate with a Psychology degree, I have taken courses in child development, behavior theories, and parenting styles, etc. Your child will be played with, talked to, well-fed, sung to and loved! He or she will have fun friends to play with all day, and will have a variety of fun experiences with myself and our daycare friends while you work hard for your family each day!

I am both infant and adult CPR certified and First Aid certified through September, 2025. I am also a registered childcare provider with the Arizona Resource and Referral organization. Several recommendations of my childcare skills can be provided at your request.

My home and yard are clean and safe. There are plenty of toys and activities to share. No swimming pool. We try to practice kindness, friendship, helpfulness, and respect in our home! Crossroads are off the 202, at Ellsworth and Guadalupe. I look forward to meeting you and your child!
