Every child is different. Every child is one-of-a-kind. So at Tutor Time, every child's unique set of skills and interests are utilized to his or her advantage in the way that they learn, grow, build self-esteem, and develop their imagination. It's our job to bring out their best. Your child's day at Tutor Time is educational. It's social. And it's highly energetic. The secret ingredient is our LifeSmart curriculum, which creates fruitful, hands-on learning and confident self-expression. Inspired by Howard Gardner's multiple intelligences theory, LifeSmart recognizes and embraces the different strengths and abilities of individual children. Those differences are embraced and used to drive a customized early education that addresses the specific needs of your child.

< 1 mi

My name is Sherri and I am a mom of 3 beautiful school age children. I have had more than one person say to me &quot;they want to come back as one of my kids in their next life.&quot; I love being a mother and spending quality time with my children. When I was young I babysat before I had my own children, and I'm still friends with two of the family's all these years later. I worked as a camp counselor all through high school and college. I taught dance lessons to children. As a mom I coached all my children in soccer. I also have been involved in the PTO and have been room mom every year. I LOVE children!!! I live in a very spacious smoke free, pet free home (not cats and dogs, just Guinea pig). I'm looking for care for a child or two in my home Mon-Fri part time. This would be great if you worked from home and wanted peace during the day:) I love to read with children, do crafts, play board games, and play outdoors.

A small home day care for children from 3 months to 5 years old. I am a mom to two children and have a degree in Education. Parents can be confident that their children will be getting lots of personal attention and love while here. They will have lots of time to play and learn. I live in a quiet neighborhood where we can go for walks to parks and the library. I offer a nurturing environment for every child here to have fun, learn and grow. I am a strong believer in attachment parenting and would treat your children as my own. You can feel confident that they will be respected and loved. I think one of best parts of being a child and being with children is the constant change and learning that is going on. Everyday is a chance to discover new things about the world around them and themselves. Since I will keep the number of children in my care low I can individualize the care and activities according to the interests and needs of each child. We will have breakfast, two snacks and lunch, which will be healthy and mostly homemade. I am a vegetarian and most of the meals will also be vegetarian based. We eat all whole grains in my home and lots of organic fruits and veggies. Cooking and baking will be a part of the day with the children.

Hi Parents!! Before beginning this adventure I was a nanny. (Live-in and live-out.) I was a nanny for 17 years before watching children at my home. I have worked as a nanny for families with 4 children, and I also have twin experience! They were 4 weeks old when I started and were 2 1/2 when they went into day care. I am a stay-at-home Mom who watches a couple of kids at our place. My child is in 5th grade. I currently watch a 4 year old boy 4 days a week. I am looking to add a baby or a toddler (1 year to 2 1/2 years old) to our group, full time is preferred. Our morning consists of playing. We have no shortage of toys whatsoever! We go outside when the weather allows, sing songs, blow bubbles, play puzzles and build towers with blocks for starters! The ABC song is among our favorite right now! We've also been known to take a picnic to the park and find story times at our local library. We love being social! Lunch is around 11:30 a.m., with nap to follow around 12:30 p.m. Snack and more play time follows! My typical hours are 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. I am more than willing to work with you on both of those times. My rates BEGIN at $50 a day, the final rate depends on hours needed. I look forward to speaking with you!

Breakfast, morning snack, lunch, and afternoon snack are meals served. Infant schedules are followed, and babies are cared for on demand with gentle hands and a loving heart. Singing, rocking, swaddling and holding are in abundance. Lights, sounds and music are all part of the stimulation for babies, as well as, exercises that promote eye hand co-ordination.

When reaching out to drop-in daycares in Lake Zurich, IL, be sure to mention the age of your child or children and confirm they accept children in that range.

While drop-in daycares in Lake Zurich, IL 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.

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 Lake Zurich, IL, it is important to make sure that you are bringing all of the necessary items for a successful and enjoyable experience.
