Licensed childcare in my home for infants to school-age kids. I offer pick-up from the local Elementary school in Torrance. I offer a very lightly structured program with plenty of free play both inside and outside. Full and part-time care provided included meals. I include an educational element, although it is very loosely structured. I have worked with children for many years and love to see them learn through play and interaction with each other. My prices are also very competitive. We spend time playing with puzzles, books, blocks, dolls, and other age-appropriate toys. We dance, listen to music, sing, practice colors, numbers, shapes and begin to get familiar with the alphabet. Outside we have a small slide, sandboxes, a play kitchen and house area. We also have balls, play animals, and some other fun activities included water play and bubbles. I offer homework help as well. My regular hours are 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, but I offer extended hours on a case by case basis.

Hello Everyone. Thank you for vising my page. A little about me: My experience with child care encompasses both professional and full time personal training. I am a licensed Child Day Care provider who loves to work with children in a friendly environment. I believe that a provider should be a person that the children are comfortable and happy around. I understand that the process of finding a provider can be nerve racking and to entrust someone to take care of your child can be traumatic, that is why I feel that the parent and the provider should have an open and friendly relationship to meet the needs of the children. I am a grandmother of two and a mother of four; from 26 to 20-year-old, who are all on there way to professional schools or owing their own businesses. I have worked for Volunteers of America for the past 5 years and have completed 20 units in child development at Harbor College. This has given me experience in taking care of and keeping up with infants, toddlers, as well as young children. I have been involved in coordinating activities for children between the ages of 2 and 6. I am certified in CPR and first aid and I also have experience watching over disabled children. In 2010, I decided to open up a daycare at my home. This has given me the pleasure of working with some very nice parents and children. I love children and feel that their upbringing is the most important factor for them becoming great adults. Even though I have experience with many preschool activities, I do not run my daycare as a preschool. My day care is more of a family style setting where I focus on teaching the children life skills like respecting others, sharing, polite manners, responsibility, following instructions, problem management, and anger control. I feel that these life skills are important before a child enters a school environment. I believe all children deserve the best. Please contact me to discuss your childcare needs. Looking forward to speaking with you. All the best! Yasmeen Qamar
