Monday through Friday from 6:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Breakfast, lunch, snacks, and supplies included. I am registered with the Department of Child and Family Services (DCFS) and have complied with all of DCFS requirements. All background checks including my family have been verified and up to date, including a CANTS background check. I am extremely knowledgeable about children with severe to moderate asthma and babies with special needs especially preemies with or without oxygen. I'm trained in emergencies that may occur, and practice them with the children once a month. As a mother of three older children, I understand how flexible and reliable I must be and the many hats families have to wear. Having gone through this myself, I changed my career to help families by providing an in home daycare with family values. I have a small group and currently have one opening left. I have been caring for children for fourteen years in my home that is filled with constructive daily routine activities that include art and crafts, exercising, playing games, and educational teachings. Every child is respected, loved and taught to be positive in everything they do. There is a lot of praise and use of manners here that make each child feel independent and confident about themselves. There is a separate room for sleeping and each child has their own bed and supplies that are cleaned and changed daily. There is a separate room with plenty of space for play and learning that is geared and protected just for your child that is cleaned and sanitized daily. I listen to each family and work with you on habits and routine you set for your child or I will help you with a structured routine that we have here. Requirements are that your child be up to date with their immunization shots. I also receive a flu shot every year to ensure a healthy environment for your child, especially for newborns. Thank you in advance and good luck in your adventure, and remember there is no such thing as too many questions to ask your caregiver, because your child depends on you. Hope to hear from you soon, Shannon O.

My name is Kerrie and I have been a stay at home mom to my three children for 13yrs. I have done day care to help out family and friends over the years. I recently started thinking about going back to work. Then one day it dawned on me that being around children, loving and nurturing them is really what I love. I will only take a few children because I want to be able to give them the love an attention they need. I already have 2 spots filled. I have not worked out the details as far as policy's go yet. I will be updating that soon. If your looking for a loving family environment for your child please feel free to contact me. I have three daughters 9, 10, 13. They are wonderful girls that absolutely adore children. As I said I will be updating soon with more information.

I am a mother of 2 young girls: 3 years old and 1 years old. I used to work as a school social worker and then took time off to have my girls. In between having them, I worked part/full time in an office. I just could not stand being away from them so I have now opened an in-home atmosphere to invite other children into our home for a loving and fun environment. I ultimately would like to care for children of teachers/educators as that is the schedule my husband and I are on. I would like to care for 1-2 more children from another family. I am unique as a caregiver as I am highly focused on FUN, activities, adventures, art, and learning. I worked in elementary and middle school with groups of children and have experience with taking care of multiple groups. I am very respectful of schedules and meeting parents needs. While working this past year I had my kids at an in home daycare, and I quickly realized what parents want and I plan on meeting all your needs/concerns. I have a single family home full of toys, games and educational activities. I would hope that you are okay with me taking the kids out for a few fun days a week also. Please contact me for more information!

When I moved to Bartlett to be closer to my grandchildren, I found myself in a unique situation. As I crossed paths with neighbors at school, church and around the community, I observed many parents struggling to balance their families and careers. While I was enjoying time with my grandchildren it became apparent that I could help these young families find a comfortable and reliable home day care alternative. I have nurtured the children of educators and professionals in and around the Bartlett community for over 15 years. We are one big extended family. We celebrate the arrival of newborn siblings, first steps, back to school jitters, the joys of summer vacation, endure growing pains and anxiously await the return of college-age grandchildren. When the doorbell rings after school often it is a former daycare child just stopping by to say hello and share their latest accomplishment. There is no limit to the milestones we share on a daily basis. I am DCFS licensed, certified in CPR and First Aid. My home is registered with the ICCB Food Program and I have openings for full and/or part time care. I participate in continuing education programs annually. I am conveniently located walking distance to the Metro station, preschool, elementary and middle schools.

Grannycare in Geneva is a DCSF licensed, tax deductible, daycare, with all the qualifications to meet your family needs. We care for infants thru school age children, with a preschool setting and FT licensed assistant to bring fun to the learning process. We work with AOK for school readiness, and are involved with Fit for Kids, a consortium in Kane County that supports wellness, nutrition, fitness. We are registered with Illinois Gateways Registry for Early Childhood Education and are involved with these organizations to excel in providing your children with the best, most recent programs available. www.grannycareingeneva.com is my website, and I invite you to read all the information to ensure full disclosure of my mission philosophy to see how we compliment one another. Licensed daycares have to follow high standards and are the safest because of a wide range of criteria we have to meet. At Grannycare, we enjoy the beautiful setting overlooking the Fox River, and the spacious areas of an entire 9 room house, with a wonderful yard and many other outside spaces to explore and grow. The great benefit of a small family child care home is that it can provide a safe and loving environment in which all the children can learn and grow; developing life skills that will enrich their lives forever. Institutional environments will always be in their lives, and their own family environment is the nucleus from which their lives evolve. But family environments often don't include the same social mix as a family child care home. Many children grow up without learning the simple, important lessons of life -like sharing, taking turns, and being patient. Sometimes it's because they are the only child or because they are not close enough in age to a sibling. Grannycare in Geneva is all about restoring the simple things in life. I had a day care in the early '70s. I was the mom of four children born within five years; it was a fabulous time. I remember teaching my children manners: how to share, how to play fair, how to say "I'm sorry " when they hurt someone - all the behavior traits needed in a healthy social culture. That is what my daycare/family child care is all about.

FAQs for finding drop-in daycares near you in Bartlett, IL

When reaching out to drop-in daycares in Bartlett, IL, be sure to mention the age of your child or children and confirm they accept children in that range.
