I chose Child Care as a career because of my love for children and have been licensed and in operation for over 20 years. I am licensed for 8 children, but prefer to keep the group small so that more individual attention can be provided. I have a small, cozy, clean home perfect for infants and toddlers. Helping with the growth and development of children is extremely important. I studied Child Development in college, both physically and psychologically. Children grow and learn from exposure to nature. When going for walks in our nature area we talk about how acorns become the oak trees we see. We look for different kinds of rocks and have a scavenger hunt for specific rocks. We learn sorting and counting while outdoors.....everything becomes a learning experience. Lunch and 2 nutritious snacks are provided. For infants naps are as needed, morning and afternoon. For toddlers, naps are in the afternoon. My goals to be shared with all children are: -learning consideration and respect for others -to provide a safe and healthy environment -encourage physical and emotional growth and development -provide stimulating and age appropriate activities I care for children as if they are a part of my family. Please contact me with any additional questions you may have, (916) 635-5308 :)

Hello wonderful parents! My name is Zee and I am a credentialed elementary school teacher who has worked in Sacramento City Unified, Fairfield Suisun Unified and Natomas Unified School Districts throughout the years. I am also a licensed child care provider and I have a small family oriented daycare in my home on La Riviera Drive near the 50 freeway. I absolutely love working with children and will be adding in a half day preschool very soon to my daycare. I focus on each child as a whole growing person and I provide values, educational skills needed and support for each child's growth as an individual.

I love partnering with families in these very important next steps in their child's life. I have available spaces for a few more children and I am open to meet with families to check out my daycare.

My Daycare is small with 6 children, I find that it's sometimes better for some children to be in a smaller environment versus being overwhelmed in a larger environment where they don't get the attention they need. It's small, warm and homey feeling, where the child feels more at home. Little Rascals Kid Care is located close to Sac State University, River park and Downtown Sacramento. In my clean and safe home, with my large safe backyard, your children will have room to run and play and express themselves. Little Rascals Kid-Care is focused on providing a clean, caring, safe, loving and nurturing environment for your kids. I offer variety of activities to help your children learn and grow including books, puzzles, arts and crafts. Outside play area is fenced in with outdoor artificial grass turf and completely shaded for a safe and enjoyable outside play where they can run and and play without concerns of dirt or itchy grass. I am a 62 yr old grandmother with more than 16 years of childcare preschool teaching experience. I am a licensed childcare provider through the State of California, with 37 Units and a Degree in Early Childhood Education and Development as well as CPR and First Aid certified.

HELLO! :) I am a mother of four wonderful grown children, two precious grandbabies and a morning preschool teacher five days a week for Sacramento County. I have been teaching pre-school age children for over 25 years and in my current morning classroom for eight years now. I am extending my passion for teaching pre-school age children to a very fun afternoon learning experience in my Fair Oaks home classroom. In my 25 plus years experience guiding and teaching children I have found a pure and simple philosophy: " Provide a fun organized space with many play options, a schedule that is age appropriate with some fun change within it, warm, kind guidance with enthusiasm and you have happy children that just soar in their development. " I am able to get to know and understand the personality and learning style of each child quickly. This is highly important in order to meet their needs properly. I have created a light , spacious , organized learning environment in my home. This includes many very fun high-end toys, along with an ongoing assortment of learning tools I am constantly creating. We follow a fun schedule that each child comes to know and love. Choice time (open creative play), circle-time ( calendar, songs , movement and stories), Outside play ( gross motor development, sand , water, bubbles etc.), snack-time ( nutritious, manners taught and encouraged), puzzle time, art , puppetry. Fun~Fun~Fun!! My enrichment program runs daily from 1:30 pm - 4:30 pm with extended care available upon request. Call for a tour. Age 3 - 6 years . I will consider a child that is 2 1/2 years, potty trained and ready for a pre-school program.

I have ages 4, 3, 2 and 4 under 1. I teach preschool curriculum and we do lots of fun learning activities. Curriculum is based on age. We do it all from learning ABC's, shapes, colors, animals and sounds, sight words, letter and word phonics, numbers and learning to write. We do Spanish, and many fun games daily. We read so many books, puppet shows, sing and dance along with the music, learn nursery rhymes, paint and do crafts. We are in a great neighborhood, with a park that the children enjoy going to just right across the street. In preparation for school, we do a lot of fundamental and craft activities on a daily basis, along with pre-schooling, getting children on the path for school readiness! The children are already writing their names and learning how to read and write. With our preschool program, we also have an infant program for babies, good teacher child ratio so each infant/child is well taken care of and they each receive lots of one on one attention. We do lots of water play outside during summer as well, with sprinklers and water toys as well as those fun water spray parks! I am a member of beanstalk, a food program that helps with great menu ideas as well as monthly home visits to insure I meet the guidelines for healthy eating. Which I only serve healthy meals and snacks, and home made food menus as well. I never served any type of junk food as that is up to the parents if they permit that food and only at home.
