Cypress Creek Child Care

107 Royal Dornoch Smithfield, VA

< 1 mi

I am a retired pediatric physical therapist and grandma relocating to Smithfield, VA to provide childcare for my 2 mo old grandson. With 23 years of experience as a physical therapist and over 10 years in the public school system, I am now looking forward to spending time proving day care for my grandson. I am looking for one other child to provide child care in my home in Cypress Creek beginning January 2017. I am willing to accept a special needs child as I was a First Steps provider in my home town of Columbia, Missouri.

Small Blessings Child Care

101 Holloway Dr Smithfield, VA

< 1 mi

I'm offering quality, loving care for your little ones. I'm a Christian woman with a smoke free/pet free, clean home, and a large, fenced back yard. I rarely get sick, so I'm very reliable. I always try to do what's right and honest. I'm extremely patient and highly organized. I have a current certification in neonatal resuscitation, have been taught child CPR, experience with triplets, special needs children, premature birth, speech delay, hearing impaired, and motor delay. I'm experienced in child education with strengths in elementary level education. I'm looking to make a little money, but I'm not just asking, "What's in it for me?" I know how hard it is to find great child care and even harder to find affordable care. So it's just as important to me to be a blessing to those I work for, as it is to find the perfect family to serve. With that in mind, I only charge $3/hr for the first child. $5/hr for two children. And MAYBE, if you have a really tiny little one (under 6 months), and if you can afford it, I'd ask $4/hr. If not, I will cheerfully accept $3. My responsibilities keep me in my own home, but I hope you'll consider my offer. I'm eager to serve.

Hello! I'm a stay-at-home mom of an almost 2-year-old. I have a BA in Psychology, current CPR certificate, work experience doing in-home childcare inspections in Alaska, and volunteer experience designing activities for and working directly with toddlers. We are a smoke-free, baby-wearing, dog-friendly household familiar with food intolerance (specifically milk and soy intolerance). We are hoping for a baby to love on or a toddler to play with (max two kiddos) and be a part of our daily routine between the hours of 7AM-6PM Monday to Friday. Hourly, full-time and part-time rates are negotiable, and we'd love to play at our house or be out and about going to do free library activities and going to the park. :)

I have never found a curriculum that I loved all the way through so I use a combination of the parts that I love of several different kinds of curriculums. I love to do activities around themes, books, or favorite movie and cartoon characters. I use some Montessori style activities as well as worksheets for preschoolers. my goal is to make everything we do as engaging as possible! I believe that children learn best through play and experiences and I try my best to give that to them. I am CPR/First Aid certified. I have an Associates Degree in Early Childhood Development and am working towards a Bachelors in Mathematics for Secondary Schools. I try to be flexible but my typical hours of operation are 7am-5pm, but I am willing to discuss working outside of those hours.
