We tailor our small, cozy, child care center for children ages six weeks through four-years-old.

Each child gets to know every teacher because we are a tight-knit center, and we like to operate like one big, happy family. This approach gives young children a strong sense of comfort and security.

I have been a licensed provider for many years, but the truth is, I am a provider and a mother. My whole life is your children and mine. I believe children should have a simple and healthy child hood. I choose to teach through example. I do have my CDA and I do fallow the DEL guide lines to the letter. I try to fallow a basic schedule, so the kids know what to expect from their day, and add fun activities, or add things to centers to bring new flair to already loved games. What makes me different from other day cares. Nothing. Or at least I would like to think nothing. I am a good daycare doing the best for my kids and I would hope other day cares are exactly the same.

I have an 14-month-old baby and have cared for many little ones over the years. It is an honor to be a part of a child's life as they grow and change. I have experience with a broad range in ages, from newborn to teenage. The tasks I can do include light house work, food prep and meals, after school activities, appointments, play dates, play time, tutoring, and bed time routines.

I LOVE kids, and I treat them as if they were my own. I've watched kids since I was a kid. I helped raise my neighbor's baby from birth until he was 8. I watched 10-15 kids at a time for Bible study. I don't have any children of my own yet, but both my husband and I love kids. We have 10 nieces and nephews combined. Being the youngest, I helped my siblings with their 6. I was a nanny for my sister's 3 kids from the time my nephew was born until my sister had her 3rd (who is now 5 years old) and my oldest nephew is 11 (nephew 11, niece 10, nephew 5). The ages of kids I've watched and I'm willing to watch or nanny is 0-10 years. I'm best with babies and toddlers. Will negotiate times and days. Every day is a new day, so it's hard to give a specific availability :-) I look forward to meeting you and the little ones!!! :)

Thank you for taking the time to read about us! I decided to be a stay at home mom (only working some weekends) and care for our 3 yo daughter instead of working long hours and having her in daycare. I LOVE being a mom and truly embrace it. We live on acreage in the country, have an assortment of kid friendly animals and take a lot of day trips to places like the zoo, charlies safari and fairs etc. We have learning time each day and have lots of learning aids and materials. We also have a VERY large play set and activity area for when the weather is good. No pets indoor, safe home which is smoke/drug free. Clean background/driving record and references available as well. I am extremely reliable and consistent. We eat healthy foods and love to garden in the summer as well. I am flexible with full-time or part time during the weekdays. Flexible drop off and pick up times. Looking for a couple part-time or 2 full time children to care for. Located 10 mins south of Tumwater Costco right off Littlerock rd - very easy access for dropping off and picking up. We are in the Tumwater school district and minutes from Littlerock Elementary.
