My goal as a child care provider is to offer a smaller size family child care setting for your children with stability, structure, play, fun, learning and lot of LOVE for your children! I want to have open communication and to build a great relationship with you and your family. Let's work together to give your children an amazing experience! I will be following the Mother Goose Time Curriculum year round, and we will have structured days planned that include outdoor play (when weather permits), free play, nap/quiet time, meals, dance, music, arts &amp; crafts and much more! Our house provides a large fenced in backyard to provide safety and security for outdoor play. We also have a park within walking distance that we will go to on nice days. I am apart of a local food program which allows me to be reimbursed for HEALTHY meals and snacks I provide throughout the day.

Quality Care in my home for infants, toddlers and preschoolers. With over 20 years of experience caring for children as a babysitter, preschool aid, Infant and Toddler program Coordinator, Lead Teacher and Nanny; I bring all of my knowledge and training to the small family style setting of my home daycare. Care and attention is given to each child and their needs on an ever changing basis. I believe in learning through play and discovery, and that the best early education environment fosters creativity and whole body learning. I serve healthy and balanced meals, using organic and fresh foods and am willing to cater to dietary needs and restrictions. Getting outside as often as possible and out into the world on field trips as often as seasons allow is an important part of healthy growing and learning. I strive to serve each family and their unique needs as best as possible and share my love and enthusiasm for what I do with you.

I'm a stay-at-home mother of three looking to provide infant daycare M-F with very flexible hours. Two of my children are in school and it's just me and my 3yr old right now. I really enjoy caring for infants and toddlers. I had 3 yrs experience as a full-time nanny for two (which included an infant) prior to having my own kids. I am First Aid and CPR certified. My home has an additional room, crib, and all other necessities to care for an infant properly. In addition, my husband works from home allowing for additional adult coverage in case of an emergency. For someone who wants their infant to receive the attention they need, look no further!

Hi, my name is Jess. My husband and I recently bought a home with our two girls. I am looking to be a SAHM and watch 2 other siblings 18 months-5 years of age. I have availability starting June 18th. I can start my day as early as 6:30 A.M. and wrap up the day by 4:00 P.M. Currently, I work as a Lead Infant Teacher at a Montessori School. I have been there since August of 2012. Prior to that, I worked as a substitute paraprofessional in the Bloomington and Minnetonka School Districts. Ever since I was young, I have helped watch over children and when I was in 6th grade, I started babysitting for a family that grew to 3 children by the time I was in high school. I will have a schedule planned out for each day. Activities will include: arts and crafts, circle time, music, movement, weather permitting outdoor activities, reading/storytelling, 5 senses, alphabet/letter recognition and sounds, colors, shapes, number sense, games and so much more. The power of play and paying attention to sensitive periods of learning are very important in my mind. I will be implementing self help and practical life skills along with stressing manners, following rules, and listening. All toy bins are labeled so we can learn how to pick up after ourselves! I also like to label many other items around the house for word recognition. For nap time, I have a pack and play and will provide mats to sleep on in a quiet bedroom with white noise. Please email or message me back if you would like to meet and discuss further details. I will give my number to you then or you can give me yours. I look forward to hearing from you!

OBJECTIVES: As children grow in my care, it is my hope they will gain: *New skills (progress) across major areas of development including: Social and Emotional, Language and Communication, Cognitive and Physical and Motor. *The ability to socialize - get along with other children, share, contribute, etc. (I truly believe every child should have a "group experience" - i.e., daycare.) *A sense of security in an environment separate from their parents. *Confidence, with the understanding it's okay to be themselves, freely explore and play with peers. ABOUT ME: Hello to All! My name is Andrea. I recently took a huge leap of faith! After 8+ years of working full-time out of the home (with three young children of my own: 9, 4 and 1), I left my marketing job to pursue family child care. Seeing young minds and friendships develop is gratifying to me. Doing daycare energizes and fulfills me, and is a calling I couldn't ignore! I am blessed and excited to be part of this challenging, rewarding profession! "Play is the highest form of research."

Hello! Thank you for checking out my profile for Mariposa Family Child Care. My name is Megan and I am opening a new home daycare in Becker November 3rd, 2014. I have openings for infants, toddlers, preschoolers and school age kids. I'm a mother of three; ages 4, 8 and 12, and the youngest of 11 children! I've been around kids all my life and it has been a dream of mine to open a home daycare. I finally have the right home and opportunity to do it! Being from a large family, I have been around children and babies my entire life as many of my nieces and nephews were my age or younger. Also, having three of my own kids...well, I have lots of experience. I also have experience as a Nurses Assistant. I do know some Spanish and will be incorporating that into my daycare as far as learning colors, numbers, general vocabulary and conversation. I am establishing a preschool curriculum that I will be using as well. Please feel free to call me to set up a time to meet. I am available to talk in the evenings and weekends as I work out of the home until I open. I am half way through the licensing process and am on track to be licensed by mid-October. I have taken all of the certification classes required and am Child/Infant CPR/First Aid Certified. Thank you for your time and I look forward to meeting you and your little one(s)! Megan

I am a stay-at-home mom looking to watch a few children in my home. I have two sons, a busy 2 year old and a smiley 4 month old. I love being around children. I grew up babysitting a lot as a teenager and taught swimming lessons for over 6 years. I worked outside of the home after having kids for about a year and decided I really wanted to be home with them to help them learn and grow. I would like to find up to 4 children to care for. I would like to keep a smaller group so I can give each child the attention and care they need. I think it is important for children to learn through play and interaction. We also do a lot of reading and coloring. We have a large yard in the country for the kids to run and play outdoors, weather permitting.
