I know how to include all students in lesson plans at their own level, and I am able to stimulate the students to motivate themselves to the next level. I provide the children with high self-esteem, so the children want to strive in the future. Students should feel comfortable being able to express themselves freely and use their creative minds. My assistant and I are able to work with smaller groups on different levels of what they need help with. Children learn best when they are taught under specific conditions and absorb in certain ways. As a parent, you want your child to progress more and more and to get the attention they deserve. When you must leave for work, put your children in a program that both engages and teaches them, letters, numbers, story time, alphabet, and dramatic play. The curriculum, all of the activities and experiences of my classroom, should include certain 'basics' that contribute to children's social, emotional, intellectual, and physical development. My price includes breakfast, two snacks and lunch with healthy home cooked meals, I am open 7am-530 Monday-Friday. First Aid, CPR certified, SIDS, Safe sleeping, mandate reporting, FEMA, as well as universal precautions, medication administration, Early Childhood Level 2 with Colorado Shines working toward level 5....Colorado Child Care Association, and Qualistar. I know how difficult it can be to entrust your child to someone else when you go to work, especially to someone you don't know. I am here to help make the transition as easy and as smooth as possible. I am a proud parent of 4 wonderful children and 6 grandchildren, I will treat your children in the same loving, caring environment that I raised my children in. I Have cats and dogs.
