Hello, My family and I recently moved here from California. I am a stay at home mother of 3 happy children . I am looking to care for another child. I had my own daycare in California that consisted of two full time children, and three part timers, However, this would be a private daycare for only one child. I have my early childhood education units, preschool certification, associate degrees in human services and child development, and I am finishing up my bachelors in social science at California State University Fullerton, online, this following semester. In addition, I am able to provide a complete background check including live scan security clearance, and I am CPR certified. References are also available upon request. This will be a learning and also play-based daycare. If you or anyone you know are interested, please send me a direct message so we can discuss further. I am happy to answer any questions. As a sidenote, my children are 3- will be 4 in May, and 7 months

QUALITY CARE: NOT MORE THAN 4 KIDS AT A TIME. HOURS: 6AM-6PM FULLTIME, WEEKENDS AND HOLIDAYS. Dear Parents, My name is Pari and I am a Licensed child care provider. I am First-Aid and CPR certified. I have also been Live Scan fingerprinted and background checked. I speak fluent Farsi, Spanish and English. Children are my passion. Before opening a daycare, I was a personal Nanny of two kids, from the time they were born until were six years old and off to school. My Philosophy: As a child care provider, I believe that having Passion, Love and Respect for the Children is Number one and it's my Priority. If we treat children with Love and Respect, they grow to be happier and more confident and with great self-esteem. By providing a child with a nurturing environment, they will be more responsive to their education and every day tasks. My main focus is to respect their physical and emotional needs in every moment. A child who knows that he/she is loved has a great head start in life. Which is why I provide a safe, fun, loving and educational environment for your little ones. I will provide a healthy breakfast, lunch and snacks throughout the day. [No junk, frozen of microwaved foods.] A copy of a monthly menu will be provided to the parents and can be adjusted to accommodate for food allergies. I provide a Preschool Curriculum. Our daily activities are created to help and enhance your child's fine and gross motor skills and other areas of development. Activities are designed to help your child recognize numbers, shapes, patterns, colors and the alphabet. We also include story-time, music time and fun arts and crafts throughout the day.
