I am an experienced, DCFS licensed home child care provider in Island Lake. I have been happily operating my home daycare for 28+ years. I provide care for all ages. I strive to have long term relationships by providing loving, reliable care for all of the children who enter my home. It is very important to me that the children in my care feel as if they belong here and are as comfortable and secure as if they were in their own home.

I work on all concepts with the children (ABC's/123's, large and fine motor skills, etc. along with homework help), and accentuate manners and proper social behavior just as you would in your own home. I believe that learning begins in infancy and provide appropriate and varied activities for learning and fun for all ages. Complete, nutritious meals and snacks are provided. My rates are reasonable and my references excellent.

I live in a single family home with a very large, fenced yard and playground equipment for outdoor activity. Fun, indoor exercise is also a must when the weather is unpleasant.

I currently care for children 18 months old and older, and have two openings.
