Small ratio home daycare with a certified teacher. I have a Loudoun County home daycare license and I am part of the USDA food program. I have positions open for children between 3 and 5 years of age. For convenience I can provide pick up or drop off for a small fee. I live in a single family home and have set up my basement as a preschool classroom. I will never take more than three children other than my own unless it is an older sibling for after or before school care. I have my Master's degree in Education; have taught for 7 years, taught swim lessons, ESOL, and many day camps as well. With such a low ratio I will develop individualized lessons appropriate for the preschool level in the home. We go on outings almost everyday such as the farm, zoo, library story time, parks, stream hikes or other age appropriate learning activities. We will get lots of exercise, including sports instruction. Healthy meals will be included in the cost of care. I run my daycare as I did my classroom; staying very organized and preparing lessons based on the needs each child. I would like to start as soon as possible.

The older toddler Program is for children, 18 months to 3 years of age. The Primary classrooms are designed for children, three through six years of age. At East Gate Montessori School, our curriculum is designed to: -Allow students to work at their own pace, with the teacher introducing new materials only as current materials are mastered, to ensure success rather than frustration. -Put emphasis on the process rather than the product of learning. -Promote mastery of self and environment, self-discipline, and social competence. -Explore math, language, geography, botany & science, social studies, art and music, involving children in a series of sequential, manipulative, and sensorial activities that lead them from concrete to abstract learning. The Montessori classroom aids in the development of concentration, coordination, order and independence. Children learn self-confidence and refine their motor skills. Lessons include care of self and care of the environment.

Hi Parents! I am a 22 year old SAHM and have finally made the decision to open my own small in home daycare. I am so excited! I am offering full time, part time, or drop in childcare. I also have special date night rates for parents. I have 10+ years experience, and have references available upon request! Healthy meals and snacks will be provided. Each day, I will send home a daily recording for parents for parents to see. I think it is important that I keep you parents informed, and as involved as possible while your children are in my care. The daily recordings will be different depending on your child's age. It will include but is not limited to what we learned, what we did, what they ate, and how much. It will include number and times of diaper changes, length and times of naps, reminders, etc.! Each month, I will send home a newsletter and calendar. There, you will find our weekly goals, themes, and scheduled trips, plans, and so much more! There are different things for different age groups. Each week, we have a theme, and everything we do that week is based around that theme. We talk about it, learn about it, and have everything we do including our arts and crafts based around that theme. For children of age, we do have art time each day, and we also learn a letter each week. I like to encourage learning in a positive way! I will take children from infants - age 4. I am a small home (I prefer to only have four children per day) daycare, because I feel that every child needs a large amount of attention and I want to be able to provide that. To have the opportunity to play such a large role in children's lives is truly an honor to me and is something I take very seriously. I treat each child that walks in my door as my own and I am proud of that. What I normally do is schedule a meet and greet with families who are considering me to be their childcare provider. That way, you and your child/children can come meet me and my family, and see my home. It is also a way for us to sit down and I can answer any questions you have! Please let me know if you would like to schedule a meet and greet. I am looking forward to hearing from you!
