As an accredited preschool teacher, I believe that the education process begins in the home. It is my job to support this process by helping each individual child grow and discover the world around them and their place in the world. We are partners during this education process which includes communicating and involving the parents as much as possible. I have 4 children of my own, ages 26 years old, 23 years old, 21 years old and a 9 year old. I have a Bachelor's degree in Child Development and have been providing childcare as a licensed provider as well as teaching preschool for children, ages 6 weeks old to 12 years old, for 10 years. Currently, I am licensed for 14 children. I have 2 helpers daily. I use &quot;Mother Goose Time&quot; curriculum that reinforces skills from social-emotional and cognitive areas of development along with daily circle time where we sing songs, read books, learn the alphabet, phonics, numbers, days of the week, months of the year and really have a good time learning it. Included are arts and crafts and activities that promote learning. I also provide 2 nutritious meals and a snack each day following a guide given by a food program through the state of California. All the children are loved and cared for and nurtured as my own children. I have well prepared them for Kindergarten using a preschool homeschooling program and have followed them and participated in their lives even after they leave my care.

As well as hands-on cooking, games and free play. Each day is filled with a nurturing, well-managed environment that provides many engaging opportunities to learn. I like to think that my dedication to children is what sets me apart from other daycare providers. I have vested the majority of my life to caring for and helping children. My home, my husband, and my children have all supported me in my never-ending quest to help all children feel safe, happy and loved. By creating an environment that offers a safe place to freely explore feelings, my staff and I are able to help children gain confidence in their feelings, others feelings, sharing, listening and communicating. My children become confident and socially apt for successful integration into the public school system. If you are entertaining the idea of an environment that will enrich your children's lives and expose them to a wonderful group of adults and children, along with age-appropriate activities that will encourage growth, I would highly recommend my services. However, you don't have to take my word for it, please do a web search for reviews and you will come up with several to read. Thank you for your interest and have a great rest of your day!

FAQs for finding drop-in daycares near you in Brea, CA
