I am a stay-at-home mom offering affordable, reliable childcare. I provide your child with a happy, cheery, energetic, nurturing, clean and safe home environment to thrive in their early childhood. I believe in respecting each child's interests and abilities, as well as to provide a safe, nurturing place to take risks and provide opportunities to practice newly learned skills. I strive to offer routines and activities that are age-appropriate and fun! All children learn at different rates and learn best through play and activities that allow autonomy, control and as much practice / repetition as is necessary to master new skills and to discover and develop their own interests. As a mother of four, I believe that your family is your child's first and most important teacher. Your perspective and insights, goals and desires for your child are essential to provide a great program. I stay open regardless of weather! I am also open school vacation weeks, holidays (except Christmas) and snow days! I am available to work with your schedule as I know how hard it is to balance family and work! I also offer before and after-school care to grade school children. Please email me with your inquiries!

Hi there! I'm currently a stay at home Mom of two amazing young children. I am a responsible and trustworthy person who has a passion for working with children and am looking to take in a child or two. Before staying at home, I was a nanny for 4 years and then worked in child care for 10 including 8 years at a top rated NAEYC accredited school in Concord, NH. I graduated from college with a Psychology degree and went to graduate school for an Autism Spectrum Disorder Certificate. I also have experience working as a one-on-one aide in Special Education. I have a pretty flexible schedule. Our day would involve activities such as outside play, free play, music, dancing, stories, cooking, art activities, science experiments, sensory play, etc. I would focus our activities on the children's interests. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions. I look forward to hearing from you!

I am in the process of opening a home daycare centered on organic food and philosophy and preschool called Growing Tree Childcare. I have an expansive organic vegetable garden that will be providing some of the food, will be following an eco-healthy model and will become Eco-Healthy Childcare Certified. I do not use pesticides, or other chemicals. We are in Westbrook close to the Windham/Portland town lines. I have a BA from Georgetown University and a Law degree. I've been teaching children in the setting of babysitting/nannying since I was a child up until I had my three wonderful children (8, 5.5 and 2.5). I also coach minor league baseball and t-ball. Both of the other teachers have their education in early childhood development and one has been a HeadStart teacher prior to working with us. Our age spots range from 6 weeks up until 6 years. Hours are 7:30-5:15 pm and all food (breakfast, snacks and lunch). At age 2.5, children are transitioned to the preschool program at no additional cost. I am putting the finishing touches on the layout of the daycare. I plan to be open September 1 at the latest and am accepting applications now! A one week deposit secures your child's spot. In the event we are unable to open at the designated time, any deposits will be refunded. Please contact me at 286-5475 or GrowingTreeChildcareLLC@gmail.com. I look forward to helping your children grow!
We are a small, diverse, energetic childcare facility located in Portland. We serve children ages 6 weeks - 5 years.

Our cargivers speak French and English, as well as Swahili and Lingala. We work with every parent to ensure that the cultural traditions of each child are carried over into daycare. We believe daycare should be a "home away from home," and encourage you to stop in and see if we're the right fit for you!

While drop-in daycares in Falmouth, ME 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 Falmouth, ME, it is important to make sure that you are bringing all of the necessary items for a successful and enjoyable experience.
