Welcome to my in-home daycare in Beaverton for children ages 0-5! I currently only have openings on the weekends. I'm passionate about providing a fun, safe environment for children to learn and grow. I am a positive role model, as I do not ever use swear/curse words, drink alcohol, smoke cigarettes, or take any other drugs. My childcare is run in a loosely structured way, allowing children the freedom to engage in tasks at their own pace. Creativity and critical thinking are encouraged. Here are some of the activities I do with the children: reading books, listening/dancing to music, walking to the park, playing developmentally appropriate games, coloring, and tutoring/helping with homework. This child care facility has no cable TV (but we do watch a DVD occasionally). Please be aware that I don't provide transportation services (picking up or dropping off). You can pay me hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly--whatever works best for you. Please contact me to ask for my rates. I look forward to hearing from you. If you use care.com to send a referral to me, please check your spam folder for my e-mail. Thanks!

Welcome to Early Years Children's Center. Here, we not only strive to exceed the standards of safety and cleanliness, but we strive to create an environment that will entice children to explore the world of learning. Our priority is the development of both academic and personal growth in your child. Each classroom (we serve 6 weeks to school aged children) is filled with a variety of materials and unique methods to enrich the learning experience! At Early Years, children will learn through play and activities that reinforce the literacy, number recognition and row counting, science, math, music and dance. But there is even more that students will learn here; how to share and use kind words with others, working together to solve problems and building friendships. These are all staples needed to create a strong educational foundation. If you have any questions or you are ready to schedule a time to meet with us, please feel free to contact us anytime.

I will provide after school care for local elementary school students. This includes picking up from school, child care until up to 6 p.m., homework assistance (for an extra fee), and an afternoon snack. My family and I live behind a school which allows pick up from the school very easy, rain or shine. I have my food handlers card and I am First Aid/CPR and AED certified. My child care experience started as a teenager, earning cash as a babysitter since I was 12 years old. I became a full-time professional nanny at 18 years old while taking courses in Early Childhood Education. Although I did not receive a degree, I still utilize the teachings I learned to this day as a mother of 3 boys. I have chosen after school care so I may spend mornings being with, and providing preschool to my 2 younger boys. I will consider picking up or dropping off for morning or afternoon kindergarten with partial day care.
