I offer a safe, smoke-free, and fun environment for children to grow and thrive, while offering peace of mind for mom and dad. I accept children from Newborn - Jr. High. If your children are in the Brennan Woods/Woodridge school area, I have a bus stop at my driveway. I've been caring for children off and on for 15+ years. I love being able to watch children discover new things and to enjoy being a child. I have flexible rates and offer sibling discounts. I will not offer child care to more than 4 children due to the fact that I like to focus specifically on a few children. I feel that any more than that, and I wouldn't be able to offer the quality care that I would demand for my own children. I keep daily records of what your child's activities included. I also prepare meals (breakfast, lunch, and an afternoon snack). I am cloth diaper friendly. I am married to my best friend, and am mother to 3 (13 year old stepson, 9 year old daughter, and 5 month old daughter). I also have a dog. She's a 3 year old yellow lab mix, and will be kept separate from the children in my care. I look forward to being a part of your family, and welcoming your children into mine!

Children are my passion; youth invigorate me! I operated an in-home center for 7 years and developed life long friendships with those families. I then entered the workforce as a director/manager at camps, recreation centers and family entertainment centers. I have been a coach, director of vacation bible schools, youth and nursery volunteer for church, background checked and approved by the Archdiocese and several other churches, and assisted with the high adventure PE classes for the the School District. I am now ready to once again provide loving care to infants and children in my home. This will be the best blend of a home setting and daycare with designated a sleeping room, playroom, huge yard, and flexible daily schedule allowing for tailor made schedules or even those days little ones are off their routine! Kids will enjoy learning through play and learning from other kids. Even the littlest babies enjoy the interactions with other babies. The home setting just makes it feel more welcoming and not as sterile and separated as a huge center. It also feels more like a family setting when the neighborhood school aged kids stop in to see the babies.

I am offering a loving, caring, and positive atmosphere for children to grow and learn at my In Home Day Care. I am located in Fenton. I am 41 years old and I am married to a wonderful husband and we have 2 beautiful children (11 & 8 years old). I am looking to find 1 more child to watch. I am looking for an infant that is about 3 or 4 months old. I prefer them all the same age so that they are all on the same learning curve. I only take 3 babies at a time. I just got done watching three 4 year olds that have moved on to preschool in August, and I started watching them when they were infants. I am currently watching 2 babies, one is 3 months and one 4 months. And I hoping to find one more baby to fit in with our little day I have 20 years of experience working with children. I worked at a daycare for 4 years in the infant room. Then I decided to move on to be a nanny. I went through a nanny service and found an absolutely wonderful family with one 3 year old boy. I worked there for about 4 years. Then I was 27 and decided to go to school and got my license to be an aesthetician. I worked for a year. And I decided I missed the kiddos. So I went back through the nanny service and I found another wonderful family. They had a 2 yr. old and 4 week old when I started. We went on lots of outings, (parks, zoo, bowling, chuckie cheese) just to name a few. We also did lots of hands on activities like painting, play dough, gluing, and crafts. I worked with them for 4 yrs. I had my first child while working with them and was very blessed that they let me bring her to work with me. Then when I had my second child, I started doing In home day care. And found twins that were 10 weeks old and I watched them until they were 4 years old And went to preschool. Then I found the 3 kiddos that I just got done watching. Now they are all turning 4 and have went off preschool Some of the things we do are circle-time with songs and books, tummy time, we work on fine motor skills, shapes, colors, letters, numbers, etc. I also like to spend time outside if the weather is nice. I have a triple stroller we could use for walks. We do bubbles, chalk, swing, bikes and much more. And we love to dance and do arts and crafts! If you think we would make a good match and would want to schedule an interview, I would love to hear from you! My phone # is 314-255-3397
