Grandma Charlotte's House of Kids

114 South Berteau Avenue Bartlett, IL

10 mi

When I moved to Bartlett to be closer to my grandchildren, I found myself in a unique situation. As I crossed paths with neighbors at school, church and around the community, I observed many parents struggling to balance their families and careers. While I was enjoying time with my grandchildren it became apparent that I could help these young families find a comfortable and reliable home day care alternative. I have nurtured the children of educators and professionals in and around the Bartlett community for over 15 years. We are one big extended family. We celebrate the arrival of newborn siblings, first steps, back to school jitters, the joys of summer vacation, endure growing pains and anxiously await the return of college-age grandchildren. When the doorbell rings after school often it is a former daycare child just stopping by to say hello and share their latest accomplishment. There is no limit to the milestones we share on a daily basis. I am DCFS licensed, certified in CPR and First Aid. My home is registered with the ICCB Food Program and I have openings for full and/or part time care. I participate in continuing education programs annually. I am conveniently located walking distance to the Metro station, preschool, elementary and middle schools.

I have a Bachelor's in Music. My Master's is in Early Childhood Education with Special Ed approval. Until budget cuts, I taught at an early learning center in West Chicago District #33. I have worked at day care centers and had a licensed family childcare for 10 years. I have re-licensed my home for daycare. Being a mother has taught many life experiences that I use in the daycare. I enjoy being part of a child's learning and development. My activities and program are integrated with music, art, literacy, problem-solving, and outside activities. Pre-readiness skills are incorporated into all activities and I believe each child be given opportunities to take risks. This is when I observe children take steps in their development. There will be plenty of opportunities to practice getting along with others, sharing, cooperating and having empathy for others. Positive guidance, modeling, nurturing, interaction toward others, and an appropriate physical environment are strategies that help children grow. If you are looking for a provider who understands how children learn and is welcome to being a partner with you in your child's early years, please contact me. 09/24/2021: I am currently full so am not accepting any new referrals. Thank you to all who have called and shown an interest in Play to Learn Family Child Care.

Mulberry Farm Daycare

Welcome to Mulberry Farm Daycare! We operate our daycare in my charming 120 yr old farm house. The daycare sits on a pretty 1.3 acre lot, where a canopy of tree's cover most of the yard. We are conveniently located next to La Fox train station, just west of the Millcreek Elementary School. We are also in close proximity to the Kaneland School District. My name is Shelley Ost and I run this small daycare from my home. I am a certified in home daycare provider and a 200 hr registered children's yoga teacher. I am British and I have been in the US for about sixteen years. Our daily schedule consists many things. We cover Kindergarten readiness preparation, such as practicing hand writing, using scissors, number/letter recognition etc. We also have unstructured play time which is essential for social and emotional development for school. We bake, paint, garden, dig in the mud, use the sand and water tables, and play many outside games so the children get a good amount of physical activity and fresh air. We gather the chicken eggs, look after the animals and have many teddy bear picnics. Arts and crafts are a favorite of the children and we love creating new things every day. We are a special little daycare. We have very small numbers of children here and we like to create a warm and nurturing atmosphere. The children become an extension of our family, and the families become our friends. We keep goats, chickens, ducks, two small dogs and a cat. The children help take care of the animals, and "farm life" is interwoven in to our daily schedule. Caring for the animals provides countless opportunities for the children to learn about life, nature, health etc. Being outside is very important to us, and we spend as much time out in nature as the weather allows. Due to a few of my daycare children starting preschool, I currently have two openings. These spots are available for children aged two and above. If you would like to schedule a tour, or talk to the parents of the children I watch, please let me know. Please feel free to call me if you have any questions or if you are interested in taking one of these spots, they will go fast.

Here is a brief overview of what I have done the past few years. I am a married mother of 4 children; 3 in school and a 3 yr old at home. I have been taking care of my 82 year old father-in-law who has Alzheimer's for the last 6 years. Prior to this I was in real estate and a regional trainer for an eye wear co. The family recently decided that it became necessary to put my father-in-law in a home for his safety. I am now available and have decided it would be fun to start my own daycare at home. I have a minivan, so if you are a good fit for my day care I would be willing to do pickups or drop offs within a 15-20 min radius. Of course being a mother of 4, I have a lot of childcare experience! My 16 yr old is on the cross country team, my 14 yr old is in advanced classes, and my 10 yr old is on the safety patrol at school. My hrs are flexible, we can discuss your individual needs. I will be taking the children on walks to a nearby park. We will do activities such as arts and crafts, games, story time etc. I can provide references upon request. I look forward to meeting with you and your child!

I emphasize learning through play by introducing children to a variety of activities including art, music, movement and literature. The children in my care are my first priority. I believe that serving their interests take precedence over any other task. My program encourages each person to grow and learn through active play and socialization. I believe my method of positive guidance provides children with the right balance of structure and freedom that fosters critical thinking, confidence and autonomy. SERVICES: I am currently offering daycare services on a full time, part time or drop in basis for children up to five years of age. Additionally, I offer special "date night" child care services one Saturday a month. I follow a daily routine and utilize Daily Connect to communicate with parents about their child's day. Television and screen time is strictly limited and I encourage children to express their emotions and explore their world through creative avenues. I am an avid cooker and offer homemade nutritious lunches and snacks. As a person that has food allergies, I am familiar with preparing foods that are gluten, diary, nut and egg free. During the summer season the children can learn to grow their own vegetables to be used in their meals in my backyard garden. ABOUT ME: My husband, son, cat, beagle and I live on the west side of Aurora. I have 14 years childcare experience caring for infants and children up to five years of age.
