I offer in home daycare for newborns-12 year old kiddos. I have worked with children since I was 12 years old. I was the neighborhood babysitter when I was young, and then a live in nanny for 5 years after High school. I was a Teachers assistant for visually impaired children 3-18 years of age. I taught braille and life skills to these special children. The best training... I have been the mommy of 4 great kids for almost 20 years! I have first aid training for children, and CPR certified. (this was required for my teaching job) I have been trained to work with kids who have multiple disabilities, and how to handle kids when they need their attention redirected when they are upset. I am a big believer in daily activities, arts and crafts, games, reading time and play time. Limited TV time happens here! I provide breakfast (when needed) lunch, and snacks .( All food must be approved by parents so we make sure we don't have any allergy problems) I love little people, and I will treat your little one just like they were one of my own. (That is what I would expect from someone watching my kids!). Hope I can be a help to your family with your child care needs.
