Montessori Preschool and Kindergarten

My name is Keyana; Early Start Home Daycare is licensed by the state of Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS). Early Start Daycare has be in business for nine years. I am certified in CPR and First Aid. I take training throughout the year so that I am always aware of the new and upcoming changes in the field of early learning and development for young children. I have over 16 years of experience working with young children, adolescents, and teenagers. I am married and a mother of three.

Early Start believes that the first years of a child's life are the most important for helping to lay the foundation for all intellectual and emotional development to follow. We also believe that every child is unique and has the right to high-quality child care as well as age and developmentally appropriate learning and exploratory environment. We think the environment should help build positive self-esteem, self-discipline, and social and emotional competence. This is how I have chosen to spend my days. I am a very tolerant individual with an enormous amount of patience; this coupled with the love for children makes me a nurturing childcare provider. Having three children of my own, I understand how difficult it must be to leave your child in someone's care. Because of this, I can appreciate the trust you must put in me daily. Therefore, my goal is to build your trust by being professional, dependable, honest, and most importantly caring for your children the same way I would want someone to care for my children.

I am a DCFS licensed provider and mother of 4 older children, two of which are adults! I taught third and fourth grade for eleven years, and have been doing daycare to be home with my second son of three, which was over 15 years ago!! I own a large, brick Georgian with a fenced yard and Rainbow playset, brick patio and deck. My play area includes a sunroom with art project table, hardwood floors and remodeled cherry cabinet kitchen with a large granite island. I work with children whose family appreciates individual attention to detail on how parents like things, lots of communication during your child's day for those up to school age, sturdy toys and a curriculum for academics and social skills. I am very experienced with food sensitivities, nursing moms, and speech and language or physical issues. Your child will become a better problem solver, team player, creative thinker and communicator in my home!!

The Learning Experience Naperville is an academy of early education. We cater to children starting at age 6 weeks to 12 years. We focus on intellectual, physical, emotional, social and cognitive development. All programs and lessons are designed to make learning fun ! And nothing is more fun than our L.E.A.P interactive boards that use touch screen technology to further enhance and engage children in learning. We also focus on foreign languages, philanthropic activities, social skills. We also teach sign language.

Active Childcare is founded on the principle that physical activity and free-play are the critical processes through which children learn. These processes, in conjunction with traditional classroom teaching, are the most effective way to develop the long-term critical thinking and social skills necessary for school and life beyond.

The environment at Active Childcare is a child's dream. We have a five-level climbing structure, a huge inflatables area, huge open indoor fields, as well as the traditional outdoor playgrounds. These areas afford the children year-round opportunities to run, play, compete, cooperate, and develop the foundation for the social and emotional skills needed in life.

Our classroom environment complements our learning environment. Each classroom has nine areas where children have opportunities to explore and learn on their own and/or with guidance from the teachers: science & sensory, art, literacy, music, computer, dramatic play, manipulatives, and blocks. Free-play in these areas is interspersed with traditional learning techniques to optimize the cognitive learning environment for your child.

At Active Childcare, we are focused on developing the social, emotional, and cognitive skills of your child. It is the combination of these skills that prepares them for school and lays the foundation for life ahead. So much research has been conducted recently connecting the positive educational benefits of physical activity, and we are excited to be on the forefront of implementing these strategies into an educational environment. Active Childcare is a place like no other, where your child can run, play, learn, and develop all year long!
