I have been licensed in Ramsey County for 20 years. Prior to starting Come and Play Daycare, I taught with the St. Paul Public Schools Early Childhood Family Education program. I taught in both of their infant/toddler programs and preschool programs. I also taught in the SPPS Learning Readiness Program. Prior to that, I taught at Wilder Child Development Center, student taught at Jean Lyle Children's Center and also worked at an infant daycare while in college. In 1991, I graduated from Macalester College with a BA in Psychology and Education. Come and Play is structured to give children the opportunity to use their imagination, creativity and talents. Art, hands on activities, group and story time, sensory activities, gross motor and small manipulative play, dramatic play and open play choices are all offered throughout the day. My philosophy is that children learn through play and their "work" is their play. Children learn from one another and their experiences. Currently I have 2 daycare openings for children in ages of 2 years - 5 years old. Please feel free to contact me with questions. References available upon request. Thanks for considering Come and Play! :) Sandy
