My name is Josie. I'm originally from Brazil. My primary language is Portuguese, but I speak, read, and write English fluently. I have 3 beautiful children of my own and I have been working with children for over 15 years. My program is play based with curriculum. I believe children need structure, but also need time to play and while they play, they learn. My students aren't just students, they are a part of my life and my home, and I care for them as I would like someone to care for my own kids. I provide breakfast and an afternoon snack. Parents provide lunch. I use the app Learning Genie to communicate with parents and share pictures and info. I have many cameras installed for security and to cover any liability or accidents. I am also insured. Little more about my program Over the summer we have our water day every Friday and we have small parties on special occasions (Valentines, Easter egg hunt , fall party and Christmas party). I have a Facebook page ABC RAINBOW DAYCARE

At Bouncing Bunnies Family Daycare, we are dedicated to creating a happy and stimulating environment that offers love, acceptance, and a place where every child feels safe and secure. Here, the safety, needs, and happiness of all children is our top priority. With over fifteen years of experience in the family childcare and preschool settings, we strongly believe that play is the work of young children. It is with this philosophy that we have created our environment, placing an emphasis on learning through play and exploration. Young minds are given the opportunity to grow and to create their own worlds through imaginary play, using all five senses to learn about everyday wonders. Our program is designed to allow children to socialize and interact with their young peers, while offering them the opportunity to play and explore in a variety of inventive, age-appropriate activities. Additionally, we enjoy a seasonal curriculum that focuses on the highlights that each season offers. We engage in a hands-on, sensory experience through arts-and-crafts and interactive story time. When the weather permits us to do so, we spend the majority of our time outside. With ride-on toys, a swing set, and neighborhood walks, we allow for an exploration of nature, exercise of gross motor skills, and an outdoor experience that is always fun-filled. My years as a mother and childcare provider have taught me innumerable lessons, such as the value of fostering creative thinking; the importance of outdoor play, musical enjoyment, and story time; as well as the power of independent reading, problem solving and self-help skills. I always discuss any concerns - physical or behavioral - with parents, and I view strong communication between families and myself with the highest regard. Although it's always sad to see the children grow up and move on from my home daycare to preschool or pre-K, parents can be confident that their children are prepared to thrive and succeed in a larger environment. Thank you for your interest in our program, and I look forward to working with you and seeing your little ones grow!
