Hello! I am a licensed Massachusetts teacher with kids of my own. I have worked for a daycare in the past and moved up to site supervisor, and taught for about 11 years. I will have 2-3 openings within the next three weeks ages 1+. We have a play room and craft/activity room. We have TONS of outside things for kiddos including a parachute (not the one you fly from), all kinds of gross motor goodies, large swing set and more. I am several certifications in personal training, aerobics instructing, and nutrition so you are ensured your kiddos will be moving and eating healthy! The house is open concept so even while making snacks, I have my eyes on the kids. Perfect set-up and on a cul-de-sac.You could say that I'm one of "those" parents.... "Safety" is my middle name! I have an extensive background working with special needs populations and behavior management. Curriculum includes exploration, free play, social skills, literacy, premath skills, fine and gross motor, and more. Parents will receive text and/or video of your child while you are at work to give you a sense of ease and deliver smiles. A parent communication board will be at the entrance for you to jot down whatever you want me to know upon drop off. The kids really get the best of both worlds: structure and school readiness with the flexibility and comfort of home. It's a great transition step! Hope to hear from you soon!

Attention Parents who work crazy hours! Are you having trouble finding reliable childcare to accommodate your work schedule? I'd like to offer you a solution!! I am available any time, any day. Seriously. If you get stuck working third shift, I'm here for you. If you're picking up an extra day at a moments notice, I'm here for you. If you work early mornings, late nights, or both... I'm here for you. I want to be YOUR childcare provider. I'm not licensed, just an experienced Momma who wants to help the workforce continue to be able to work. I understand last minute extra hours, schedule changes, and fluctuating schedules. My mother will be here with me as well. I'm charging $200 week. I will be your childcare provider for the long term! I don't go on vacations, my kids' appointments can be worked around your schedule; I am TRULY available ANY TIME! We have a big house on a quiet street, but still only 60 seconds from the highway exit. We have a fenced in back yard, swing set, sandbox, above ground pool and a little kiddie pool, too (which can be made off limits if you don't feel comfortable with it). We have enough toys, books and learning tools that I should have done this years ago! We have 1 cat and a Collie.. both older and awesome with kids! Thank you for reading my post!
