Hello, my name is Kristen Ward and here is a little about me. I graduated from The Nutmeg Conservatory in 2006. Shortly after I received an AS in Baking and Pastry at Johnson & Wales University and then a BS in Restaurant Management at the University of South Florida. After meeting my husband at USF he convinced me, a born and raised Florida girl, to move to New Hampshire. Since our move to New England I have been a Pastry Supervisor at the Omni in Mt. Washington, the Pastry Chef of two restaurants in Portsmouth and a Ballet Teacher at Portsmouth School of Ballet. Most recently I was the Front of House Manager at Popovers on the Square in Portsmouth. Today we have a 3 month old little girl and we are so excited to watch her grow! I started this Daycare to provide quality home care for friends, family, and neighbors. My capacity is 3 kids at any one given time and I provide personalized daily care for each child. I understand how hard and stressful it can be to find child care that suits your needs as a parent. This is why I not only offer your usual 9-5 hours but also early morning and late evening hours. Rates shown are based on a Monday-Friday 8:30am-5:30pm schedule. If you are looking for part time and/or weekends please send me a message to receive a quote. Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you might have.

Hi! My name is Marcy and I have openings at my in-home daycare in North Hampton! Having had to look into daycare options for my stepson in the past and knowing how strict daycare centers can be, I am happy that I can be super flexible, not charge for when your child is not with me (or I am lucky enough to be on a vacation!) I simply offer reliable and convenient daycare options to other families in the area! Our home is in a nice quiet and safe neighborhood in North Hampton. We have a great private large backyard for kids to run around and play! We also have a large family room that can accommodate any activity we are doing! We are not far off of Rte 1 so pick up and drop off is convenient! There is also a baseball/soccer field right behind our home and a park within a few minutes. I am the mother to a fun loving 11 month old little boy and an adventurous 8 year old stepson. Between the 2 kids we have plenty of toys, books, games and activities for kids of all ages! I will provide days of fun, learning, and arts and crafts. We will go on walks, take field trips on occasion, and just have fun together! I can be very flexible with drop off and pick up times depending on your schedule. I could also provide before or after school care to families that children go to North Hampton School! Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have! I look forward to meeting you and caring for your child!

Miss Beth's Family Daycare is now Licensed Plus with the state of New Hampshire! What does that mean? Well we have not only been licensed by the state of New Hampshire since Sept 2012 we have also met additional quality standards set by the state. Licensed Plus is a quality rating system that recognizes NH child care programs for efforts to improve the quality of care for young children and rewards programs that strive to improve their practices and staff qualifications. It also allows families to identify programs with higher quality. One of our goals for 2015 was to set up a STEAM room with areas for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math. This goal has been accomplished. Our next goal is become Eco-Healthy. Moving towards purchasing toys and supplies we use in our home to stuff that is less toxic. We have an open door policy for our families to stop in and visit at any time and we send home monthly newsletters to inform the families of what we are working on and any upcoming events. During the summer we take field trips to places like the SEE Science Center, Local farms and horse farms, beach, playgrounds and do several nature hikes in the area. State aid accepted.
