I follow a routine that is appropriate for a mixed-age group. My curriculum includes lots of activities to stimulate kids of different ages. Every day brings something new and unexpected, but I use a schedule and routine to help structure our days while being flexible when necessary. I believe that learning comes from play, so I provide kids with lots of opportunities to discover, imagine, and be creative throughout the daily schedule. When we're outside, we look at the birds, the squirrels, and even the worms. Circle time, reading time, music and dancing, and meals are also important parts of our day. Circle time includes singing songs, learning routines, games, previewing the daily schedule, and other community building activities. When I read to children, I also work to instill in them a love of books so that they'll keep wanting to read. When they're older, they'll learn so much from reading! What is NeighborSchools? NeighborSchools helps experienced caregivers launch and operate licensed home daycares in Massachusetts. With better ratios and experienced caretakers, home daycare allows for more individualized attention for infants and toddlers. As a parent, you get a trusted partner for the long-term care of your child, right in your neighborhood, at a price you can afford.

I aim to provide love and positive attention in everything we do at Linda's Nest Daycare. It is so important that children learn the basics-like numbers, letters, shapes, and colors-but I also ensure they learn the value of kindness, compassion, and teamwork. Everything children learn now will help them later on in life, so I adapt our activities to each child's needs and learning style to make sure they can do their very best. I love art and like to put a creative spin on learning activities whenever possible. We also have lots of story books to jumpstart kids' creative thinking. What is NeighborSchools?

Little Tribe Learning

8 Evergreen St Fairhaven, MA

A licensed home based, natural early childhood setting. I used a play based curriculum basing activities and learning experiences through the preschool state standards for learning and development. We encourage learning through exploration and hands on organic interactions with the environment, nature and the world around them. I place a strong emphasis on emotional, as well as cognitive development, realizing that children need first to feel strong love, security and connection before real learning can take place. Children will experience gardening, painting, singing, dancing, measuring rain drops, scavenger hunting, collecting leaves and many other creative experiences daily based on their own unique interest to promote self growth. My goal is allow them to expand who they are, and to let their spirit grow and thrive. This is a place where creativity and imagination can come alive. Where under every emotion, experience and interaction lies a unique learning experience
