Hello! Thank you for your interest in my daycare. I am a former teacher with 16 years of experience working with babies, toddlers, and school age children. Whether you are changing daycare centers or starting daycare for the first time, I understand how traumatic it can be for both the parents and children involved. Finding a daycare that meets your child's needs and at the same time finding a provider that you feel you can entrust with your child can be very nerve racking. I feel it is very important for the parents and the provider to have a very open and friendly relationship to best meet the needs of the children. I chose to do daycare because of my love for children, not just because I wanted to stay home with my own children. That was an added bonus. I am very proud of the fact that children love coming to my house and complain when it's time to go home even when they've been here the entire day. My background also includes 3+ years of homeschooling and work in fine arts. I believe in having an environment that is safe, structured, friendly, and sanitary, for children. I am also a parent so I understand various needs of children in diverse stages of development. My daycare is a family daycare. Although I have many preschool projects that I do with the children, I do not treat my daycare like a preschool. We have a family setting and my focus is to teach the children life skills such as respecting others, sharing, polite manners, following instructions, responsibility, anger control and problem management. I feel these skills are mandatory before children enter a school setting. Many parents who come from bad experiences are amazed at how quickly they notice the wonderful changes in their children after they start here. I like and love to play just about all sports. I am a good cook who is able to prepare healthy delicious meals. One of my favorite activities to do with children is reading and art. I take pride in how satisfied I've been able to keep the families that have chosen this daycare. I would love to speak with you personally about your family's needs. Please don't hesitate to contact me by phone or by email.Thank you for considering my home for your child's enjoyment and development! I look forward to hearing from you.

FAQs for finding drop-in daycares near you in Bowie, MD

Drop-in daycare near you in Bowie, MD can be a flexible and convenient solution for busy parents who need child care on an as-needed basis. This type of child care gives families the flexibility to drop their children off for just a few hours or for an entire day, depending on their individual needs. This kind of drop-in service can help to reduce stress associated with arranging more traditional, longer-term child care options.

Typically, drop-in daycares cater to children between the ages of 6 weeks and 5 years old, but daycares will vary depending on their facilities and requirements. When reaching out to drop-in daycares in Bowie, MD, be sure to mention the age of your child or children and confirm they accept children in that range.

While drop-in daycares in Bowie, MD may require a short registration process and forms to be filled out, it is usually not necessary to make a reservation ahead of time for each visit. This convenience makes drop-in daycare an ideal option for those with unpredictable schedules or when babysitters aren't available due to illness or other unanticipated events. However, drop-in centers may fill up quickly during peak times, so it's always best to call ahead to ensure the needed availability.

When preparing to drop your child off at drop-in daycare near you in Bowie, MD, it is important to make sure that you are bringing all of the necessary items for a successful and enjoyable experience. Remember to bring any blankets or stuffed animals that may serve as a comfort item -- this may even include pacifiers or sippy cups if necessary. It is also important to remember snacks and drinks, so your child stays well fed throughout their stay. Don't forget essentials like diapers, wipes, and changes of clothing!
