My name is Tracy and I am a family based childcare provider in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. I received my certificates for Introduction to the Child Care Profession and Fundamentals of Family Child Care through Work & Family Consulting of Southeast Wisconsin in 2016 and have had my home childcare open since 2015. I have recently added Fundamentals of Infant & Toddler Care to my resume. And will be beginning attending Fox Valley Tech for my Preschool Credential in the fall! I have over 20 years experience caring for children. I have five children of my own, ages 21, 17, 17, 8, and almost 3. I believe that young children learn best through playing and exploring the world around them. My program is designed with this in mind. I set up centers, toys, projects, music and movement, etc. that enable the child to learn while they are playing. I am here to provide a warm, nurturing, safe and educational environment and to help guide children into making the best choices for themselves, while teaching to share, communicate and interact with others. I also provide a play based learning program so children will learn colors, shapes, letters, numbers and so much more! We offer quality, dependable, nurturing child care. We have an inviting playroom with fun, educational learning centers in a home environment and a large fenced yard with an abundance of toys for active play. All meals and snacks are nutritionally balanced in accordance with the Child and Adult Care Food Program. With our low child to teacher ratios we strive to build relationships with families and ultimately be your child's home away from home where you can rest assured they are well taken care of while you're away.
