Cradle to Crayons Childcare

7720 Leaside Court Hanover, MD

< 1 mi

Our goal is to provide a warm, fun and inviting atmosphere for children. We believe that children learn more effectively when they are relaxed and when they don't realize they are learning. Studies show that children learn more through play, interaction and imitation. Providing a comfortable, stable environment for children in their most formative years is the primary goal at Cradle to Crayons Childcare. Our program is state licensed for the care of eight children. They may range in age from infants up through 4 years old. The program consists of some structure, but not so rigid that the children are unable to enjoy being children. I encourage all my "little ones" in areas such as: creative art, dramatic play, indoor/outdoor exercise, literacy skills (story time, flannel board, puppet theatre), science, cooking and an introduction to reading readiness. The children are also introduced to basic Spanish vocabulary and an introduction to "sign language."

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

Drop-in daycare near you in Hanover, 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 Hanover, 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 Hanover, 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 Hanover, 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.
