Hello! I offer full time care in my home. I live in Star and can both pick up and drop off to any of the surrounding areas. I can also provide laundry upon these pick up and drop off times. I also can provide piano lessons to kids at a certain age during care! I am CPR, BLS, and NRP certified. I have tons of knowledge with newborns, milestones, and needs due to being a student midwife. I also have education in Early Childhood Education. I have experience caring for children in a church and gym setting. I also provide weekly services in church for children of many ages. I have a spotless driving record. We love to travel and give the kids many experiences, including parks, trails, and museums! We also love arts and crafts. So many memories for both parent and child can come from these! I am also known as the &quot;chef&quot; in the house and love my little sous chefs! I love to make healthy meals and have children try new and fun things! I look forward to hearing from you!

*UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT* Play based childcare serving families with children 6 weeks to 5 years old. Hi, I'm Gianna, the proud new owner of Wings 2 Fly Nampa Daycare and a passionate early childhood educator. With a background in psychology and elementary education, I've had the joy of teaching kindergarten, supporting early readers, and working with vulnerable children at a crisis nursery center in Spokane, Washington. After moving to Idaho in 2024 with my husband and our three wonderful children, I felt called to create a space where I could continue doing what I love-teaching and nurturing young minds-while also being present for my own kids. Opening this daycare has allowed me to do both. I believe children learn best through play. They are naturally curious, energetic, and full of wonder-which is why our program encourages exploration and joyful learning every day. I want each child to feel safe, loved, and at home here, and for every family to feel supported. One of the greatest rewards of this work is seeing those magical "aha" moments when learning clicks and knowing that we're helping build a foundation of positive memories that children will carry for a lifetime.

All About The Kids is a great place for your children to learn and grow. This daycare was built by husband and wife, Adam and Kari Deane. They put their heart and soul into building a perfect place for children to spend time while their parents are working. Adam and Kari have four children of their own, ages 11, 9, 7, and 2. We have activities for children of all ages. We like to play, sing, dance, and learn new things. We have a preschool class for ages 3-5. We have a baby room as well as a toddler room. The downstairs is set up as a "kid cave" for all of the older children ages 7-12. The kid cave has a chalkboard wall, book shelf, and many arts and crafts. All About The Kids has a huge backyard with swing sets and play equipment. We like to be very active and will have lots of summer activities lined up for all of the kids. We celebrate all holidays and will have holiday parties. At All About The Kids we are very passionate about having a safe and loving environment for children. We will keep parents notified at all times about what their children are doing at the daycare. We have an open door policy and all parents are more than welcome to stop by at any time to see what their kids are up to. Once a day we will have naptime for the littler kids and quiet time for the older kids where they can read a book and just relax. We have staff on hand at all times that will assist the older kids with their homework during the school year. Being parents ourselves we know how important homework is and getting it done before they come home will give parents more time to spend with their children.
