I am a mother of 4 children, my youngest born in September of 2015. I'm looking to stay home with my son but in order to quit my job, I will need to watch children in my home for additional income. I have an early childhood education background and a nice home for your child to stay at during the day. I am currently paying over $1200/month in daycare and would like to help out the mothers out there that are in the same predicament that I am in. I offer cheap rates and excellent services. $5/hour for infants $4/hour for 2+

Hi, I am a Military Spouse of over 10 years and have three daughters ranging from 1-10 years old. We live in Pacific Beach (San Diego), CA. I am currently going through the process of getting my in-home childcare license through the state. I was previously certified through the military CDH program for around 5 years in 2 different locations. I provide age appropriate arts and crafts, music and movement, outdoor play and we read stories and work with puzzles everyday. I encourage children to learn through playtime and try to get them excited by providing games and writing activities that correspond with stories we read throughout care. I have 10+ yrs experience caring for children 6wks-12yrs of age. I have worked with the YMCA, youth groups and with the military daycare program. I provide care during the week and on nights and weekends in my home, but am willing to travel depending on location and circumstance. I am currently attending online courses to obtain my degree in early childhood development and social & behavior science. I have a smoke free home with 1 dog and 1 cat that stays behind closed doors. I offer affordable prices with full-time, part-time, and even drop in care. I provide/offer all snacks and meals that correspond with the USDA food guidelines. Your children will receive quality care from me, in a safe clean environment. I have lots of attention to give and patience when dealing with kids and love to watch them grow and develop over time. If you have any questions feel free to ask, I also have references I can provide. Thank you for looking at my profile and I look forward to hearing from you.

Extended Love Child Development Center is conveniently located between Chicago and Milwaukee in Pleasant Prairie. Our center has a purpose. It is our purpose to provide an optimal environment for young children to develop their emotional, social, physical and intellectual self. &quot;An Extension of Love from Home to School&quot; Our goal is to provide a home away from home for children in our care. To accomplish this goal, the center places an emphasis on a homelike atmosphere, with periods of a structured daily routine so that the child will develop an interest and enthusiasm for learning. We try to alternate periods of structure, with periods of independent choice to offer a wide variety of opportunities to develop both self and social growth. We meet the age appropriate development of all children through portfolios and by tracking individual outcomes so that we can prepare intentional lesson plans around the individual needs for both the children and the families that attend our center. Want more information or a tour? Please contact us today!

We operate a small family home day care and are different than a Day Care Center because the number of children that are enrolled is limited. By staying small, we are able to provide the quality care and nurturing atmosphere that your child deserves, which makes our home day care a premium service. I &amp; G Home Family Day Care is not a preschool, but we do offer a theme based preschool program. Children participate in a full range of activities such as free play, outside play, stories, dramatic play, creative arts, crafts, music, and much more. As a family child care provider, our goal is to provide a safe and happy learning environment for each child that will stimulate their physical, intellectual, social and emotional growth at their own pace. We offer loving care that focuses on each child as a unique and wonderful individual and in doing so, builds self-esteem and respect for others. As your partner in caring for your child, our interaction with you, the parent, is as important as my interaction with your child. We encourage parent involvement in the child care setting. We look forward to welcoming your child into our daycare!

Hello, my name is Lindsay. I'm a 35 year old wife and mother to a very active 6 year old son. I've been caring for children ever since I was 12 years old and was able to take the certified babysitter class at my local library. We recently moved to Paddock Lake, Wisconsin from Antioch, Illinois where I ran a successful state licensed in home daycare for many years. Children are my passion and I love seeing their little faces light up when we start singing, counting or picking out a new book to read. We love being outside and enjoying the fresh air!! I have many outdoor toys for the kiddos to enjoy in our fully fenced in back yard! I also have multiple parks that are walking distance from my home. I charge $250 per week, per child. That's for 5 weekdays, 5 or more hours per day. I hope to hear from you soon and have a great day!

Qualifications: I am a professional early childhood educator with 3 years of experience working with children from ages 0-6 years of age in a center-based setting. I am an approved family care provider and licensed from the Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) with a capacity of 8 children. I am also pursuing an Early Childhood Education degree from College of Lake County. To date, I have completed 38 credit hours of Early Childhood Education. Philosophy: My name is Anna and I am a proud Champions teacher! I believe that children are precious and a blessing and that makes me feel that my work is meaningful. To me, great teaching looks like creating a sense of community, and so I'm doing my best when children are enthusiastic about learning and socializing with their peers and their teacher. I know that providing children with lots of love and care is the best way to help them learn, prosper, and respect each other and so every day I work very hard to instill wholesome values and positive experiences in children's lives. My approach to teaching is respecting children because experience has taught me that respect is important when working with children. I understand that children will make mistakes, so I always make to encourage them to keep trying. In my classroom, I create an environment that is entrusting and respectful, because I want children to succeed. I take pride in being warm, loving, and having a nurturing personality to make it easier for children to approach me with any curiosities they may have. I believe that relationships are paramount, and I work hard to establish long-lasting relationships. When it comes to curriculum, I think that it should be engaging and fun, and so I make sure that kids in my program are excited about learning. I love teaching because I find it personally fulfilling. Some days are harder than others, and when things get challenging, and in those moments, I am motivated by the smiles of the children. When all is said and done, to me, teaching is everything, and that leaves me feeling accomplished and joyous.

Chris M. says "If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Anna takes care of our almost 2 yr old son. The love and care that the entire family has for our family is...
