Sophia's Little Stars - Where Your Child Always Shines

7 New Street Denville, NJ

An incredible in-home family childcare in Denville, NJ, run by an experienced mom of 2 that provides days filled with learning and fun. Your child will thrive in an environment that's enriching, clean, safe and very nurturing. Extremely small teacher to child ratios. If you don't want a day care with many children or a nanny is just too expensive then my child care right in my home is the perfect solution. I include ORGANIC homemade lunches daily (or provide yours at $5/day discount). We are infant and children First Aid and CPR certified. We provide daily report and pictures. Call or email me for further details. Let me know if you would like to come and take a tour! A little about me... I worked in Manhattan in an office, being away from home 12 hours a day (with a 4-hour commute) until I had my 2nd child. This was when I realized that going back to working in the city was no longer an option. I became a full-time stay-at-home mom. While on maternity leave, I realized that opening a Family Day Care would be the perfect balance for me and I can offer other children an environment that I would want for my own kids. So that's when I decided to start my own child care and give other children the incredible nurturing and loving experience that they deserve. Call or email me for further details. Let me know if you would like to come and take a tour! https://www.facebook.com/sophiaslittlestars/

Nature's Nest

18 Wildwood Trail Boonton, NJ

An at-home environment you can trust. Truly a second home for children & families! A place to learn, be nurtured, explore curiosity, grow and thrive in the most natural of settings. Significant research has provided evidence that warm, loving, and home-like settings are natural learning environments for children during early childhood. While offering the safety and comfort of home, and providing a consistent caregiver throughout the years, family child care is the preferred arrangement for many parents. At Nature Nest, our mission is to provide young children, with the foundation for healthy development and outstanding education. It is our belief that by providing children with certain conditions in the environment or experiences, we pave the way for normal cognitive and psychosocial development, therefore preparing them for school and furthermore, life. These conditions are known by researchers as the 6 Developmental Priming Mechanisms and they are as follows: 1-Encouragement to explore. 2-Mentoring in basic cognitive and social skills, such as labeling things, sorting, and comparing. 3-Celebration of their accomplishments. 4-Guidance in practicing and expanding their skills. 5-Protection form inappropriate punishment, testing, or disapproval for mistakes or unintended consequences of exploring and trying out skills. 6-Stimulation of language and other symbolic communication. By being in an environment that consists of these conditions on a regular basis, children will thrive, acquire necessary life skills, and be on a path to becoming outstanding and productive adults.

I have several years' experience of child care (raising my two boys, ages 16 and 12), babysitting at the YMCA, babysitting out of my house, and working at a nursery school for the last 6 years as a co-teacher, a computer teacher and a music teacher. I love kids and feel I have a really good sense of how to deal with them. I like to keep them busy and are very conscious of their diets/nutrition. Also, during my college years, I worked summers at a YMCA day camp in PA. And for about two years, I've taught Sunday school to preschoolers in Randolph, NJ Re: cost... $14/hour and possibly negotiable.

Goldendays Daycare

22 Angelo Drive Sparta, NJ

Hi, my name is Nancy. Thank you for your interest in my home based family daycare. Whether you are changing daycares or starting daycare for the first time, I understand how traumatic it can be for both the parents and children involved. Finding a daycare that meets your child's needs and at the same time finding a provider that you feel you can entrust with your child can be very nerve racking. That is why I started Golden Days Family Daycare at my home in Sparta. I offer a family setting limited to 4 or 5 children so that I can provide a safe and secure environment, along with the individual care your child deserves. Although I have many preschool projects for the children, I do not treat my daycare like a preschool. We have a family setting and my focus is to teach the children life skills such as respecting others, sharing, polite manners, following instructions, responsibility, anger control, and problem management. I feel these are very important skills for children to learn as they prepare to enter a school setting. To tell you a little bit about my family and myself, I'm married and have two children, (12) and (8). I've worked at Blessed Beginnings Preschool/kindergarten the past three years, having completed training classes in educational, health and safety. I recently completed Norwescap's training specializing in child care. My home is conveniently in Sparta, 5 minutes from Route 15. I love working with children and am confident you will be very happy with the quality of care and nurturing I provide. Thank you for considering my home for your child's enjoyment and development! God Bless, Nancy.
