I am a very loving and dedicated mom of three and grandmother of four. I am looking to help teach and care for children as if they were my own (as my last child is now in 7th grade and I have home-schooled for the previous school year). I have (over the years) cared for children both long and short term, anywhere from newborns to junior high school age. I have over 20+ years of experience caring for children, as well as children with special needs. I have also enjoyed being a mother's helper, picking children up from school, picking up dry cleaning, etc. I enjoy teaching, reading and playing, while providing a nurturing, loving, pleasant, fun, safe environment for children. I believe in children having fun and being stimulated and challenged (not just TV watching). We take walks, go to the park, do crafts, visit the library to name a few of our activities. I have been an assistant to the youth leader, and Sunday school teacher for our local church. I volunteer yearly as an assistant to the business manager of my son's football team, also providing them with care, snacks, rides, encouragement and support. I believe in and encourage parents to drop by and check in on their children. I also ask that parents take the time to go over their children's activities and art projects they bring home, as we celebrate each child's achievements daily for a healthy, positive self esteem.

Head Start is a new daycare service in Goodyear, Arizona that emphasizes quality and affordability. It has been 3 months of preparations and the doors are now open for families to join a safe, fun, and educational environment. Every family can expect the following from their enrollment at Head Start: Curriculum - developed by Nationally Board Certified Special Education teacher, Carrie Hill, to meet the needs of early education for young students. It is designed to prepare children for a life-long enjoyment of learning and an easy transition to Kindergarten. Meals/ Snacks- Well-balanced breakfast, lunch and two snacks offered to all children. All allergies are taken into account and menus are developed and posted for the following week so parents can coordinate their own meals. Life skills- work on potty training, good manners, vocabulary, basic responsibility, clean up, etc. Practical skills are interwoven into all daily activities and accommodate our youngest to oldest children. Free play and Group play- encourages exploration, imagination, sharing, following direction and early social skill development. Exercise- Ranging from outside play, yoga, introduction to sports, tummy time (for the little ones) visits to the park behind the house and splash play in the summers. Physical activity is included in the daily curriculum. Daily updates/reports- Parents are appraised of their kids' activities with take home crafts, a specialized Facebook page for photos, individual text messages, and take-home folders for each child with the weekly menu, schedule, and relevant information. As the daycare provider, I bring over 10 years of experience with teaching internships at the elementary school level, lead Pre-Kindergarten instructor at the Little Gym and coaching youth sports through the city. I have CPR certification, Fingerprint and background clearance, and a current (negative) TB test. More importantly, I am personally invested in the program and I relish the opportunity to spend my career raising my own two girls in an inclusive and social environment. Full time enrollment is $125/week and limited to 6 kids, however the options are unlimited including part-time, drop-in, and Friday Date-Nights. A service menu and informational documentation will be mailed upon request and a home tour can be scheduled during evening hours. I look forward to meeting you!

Lindsey K. says "This is a fun loving environment that I feel comfortable leaving my two kids out when I am in a crunch and need help with child care."

I am a stay at home mom of four, ages 12, 10, 7, and one month. I have 12+ years of experience and truly love being a mom. I know from experience the struggle to find someone you trust with your children and have experienced all the ups and downs of finding childcare. When searching for someone I entrusted my children with, the first thing to come to my mind was family. Knowing they would provide not only just the care my child needed, but provide the love and attention they sought. That being said, my approach to the child care I provide is to provide a second home for your child. Not a daycare. Somewhere they feel safe, loved, and find the comfort they need. That's not to say they will not be provided with a safe and structured environment. I am a firm believer in routine. But most importantly, I believe in listening to you as a parent and providing the best care for your child's individual needs.

Greatest Resource Educational Home Childcare

I began my career as a home child care provider in 1986. I was formerly licensed with the U.S. Air Force and received extensive early childhood growth and development training. I am a few classes short for my associate's in early childhood education. My husband of over 30 years and I have three children and five grandchildren. In addition to home child care, I have worked as a nanny, child care center teacher, preschool teacher, teacher's aide, and as a substitute teacher in an elementary school. Our days are softly-structured and encourage play and exploration through a professionally created curriculum that covers Early Literacy, Language Development, Science, Sensory Explorations, Numbers, Early Math Skills, Arts and Crafts, and Music and Movement Activities. I believe children learn best through hands-on experiences, where they can exercise their natural curiosity and can manipulate and explore the environment around them. My environment and curriculum is built around this simple philosophy. Everything is presented in such a way that the children learn while playing and having fun. I encourage parents to expand upon their child's experiences by sending home lesson plans, song lyrics, and finished projects, so they know day-to-day what their child was exposed to. I truly believe today's children are our greatest resource; hence the name Greatest Resource Educational Childcare. I will always do my very best to provide a safe, stimulating, and loving environment. Open Monday through Friday from 4:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Nutritious meals and snacks included.

In our care your child will receive all of the benefits of preschool environment while still receiving the individualized care that they need.

We are within walking distance to a beautiful park as well. I have over 15 years experience in childcare as well as my BA in education. I have been a nanny, preschool teacher, elementary school teacher, childcare center director and quality first coach. Working with children is my passion and I truly love what I do. I get my passion for children from my mother Cindy. She ran a daycare center out of our home for 15 years as I was growing up. Since then, she has been working as a nanny. She is the most loving and patient person I have ever met. She gives new meaning to the word kindness and could give Mary Poppins a run for her money any day. We understand how hard it is to leave your precious children in someone else's care and we would love the chance to set your mind at ease and give your kiddo the best care possible.
