What We Offer

Food: I provide two healthy snacks and one homemade lunch each day. Nutrition is an important part of growing strong, healthy kids which is why we serve fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and quality meats.
We get the kids excited about food by assisting with food prep, helping set the table, and talking about healthy choices. We serve organic milk and water (100% juice as an occasional treat) to ensure your child is well hydrated throughout the day.

Rest: Each child has their own personal playpen or nap mat, sheets, and blanket. This helps control the spread of illnesses and creates a personal, comfortable sleeping space for your child. Bedding is washed here twice per week or when soiled.

Reliability: You can be assured that you are choosing a reliable, stable environment for your child when you choose Dandelion Daycare. I make a commitment to you that I will care for your child until they are ready to leave for Kindergarten. The majority of the children here stay in care for YEARS. The children build friendships together and truly become a family.

Quality: As a parent, we all want the best daycare experience for our children. My own children participate in the daycare. I built this program to teach, guide, and nurture all the kids in care the same as I do with my own. I truly believe that the balance of play, learning, and discovering the world on their own is the best way for a child to grow up with a love for life and learning.
You can be certain that your child is getting the guidance and attention they need in our small group setting. No one is left out or left behind in our program! We use the children's personal interests to build our curriculum to excite the kids and show them that what they care about, we also care about! We support their passions and help them explore others in a safe environment.

Fresh Air: Unlike many daycare centers, we can offer lots of outdoor time here at Dandelion Home Daycare. If the weather is nice, it is not unusual for us to do Circle Time, snack, free play, story time, and lunch outside before coming inside for nap. The kids really enjoy spending time on our play set, planting and tending our vegetable and fruit gardens, and going on nature hunts. Since we are not tied to the policies of a large center, we have the freedom to choose how to spend our days.
