I have recently decided that I want to return to the childcare field. I worked and volunteered at a local daycare for 1 year and have provided care for family, friends, and neighbors children for the past 20 years since receiving my certification. I love to help children learn and have fun while doing so. I have a Vocational Early Childhood Education and Child Care Services degree. I have background checks available and I am CPR certified. I can babysit your children within your own home or my own if you would prefer. If within my home I have a fenced in yard for safe outdoor play time. If babysitting within my home I will provide meals/ snacks if wanted or I will prepare meals/snacks sent from home if preferred. Daily, lesson plans, play time, etc within a daycare style setting. Hours available 6 am- 6 pm Monday - Friday. I do have 3 small dogs within my home that do very well with children.

AA TO ZZ CHILD CARE AND LEARNING CENTER

817 E ARCH ST PALMYRA, PA

2 mi

Welcome to Kids & Company Schaffner! This location was formerly called “Aa to Zz”, but has since been purchased by Kids & Company and now operates with our staff and proprietary programming. Our location is proudly endorsed by Eco-Healthy Child Care®, a program that partners with child care professionals to eliminate environmental hazards in early learning settings with the goal of protecting the health of children and staff. We are located in West Hanover Township, in the Brynfield Development area, near the corner of Hershey Rd. and Green Hill Rd. Our standalone building is set back far from the road, and the residential environment provides a quiet and private place for children to learn. We have a large parking lot that parents can use during pick-up and drop-off, and do not recommend this location for parents travelling by transit as the nearest bus stop is about 3.5 miles away. Inside the building, you’ll find large windows that let in lots of natural light and an architectural design that uniquely suits daycares. Along with colorful and bright classrooms, we also have a cafeteria and a gross motor room for children to get physically active during inclement weather. Outside we have 2 large and separate fenced-in playgrounds, one dedicated to toddlers and the other for preschoolers. Each area is equipped with age-appropriate structures and toys that children use to develop their gross motor skills. We also have chickens that the children love to help take care of! Our 8 classrooms can accommodate 92 children in our Infant, Toddler, Preschool, Kindergarten Prep, and School Age programs. The School Age program runs as Before and After School care, School Break care, and Summer Camp. Transit from East Hanover, Paxtonia Elementary, Mt. View, Lingelstown and South Hanover elementary schools are provided with additional cost. Children that are 6 years and under are welcome on a full-time or part-time (3 full days or 5 half days) basis, with backup care being available on an ad-hoc basis. At Kids & Company, we use an emergent curriculum and learn-through-play philosophy. This means children are presented with learning opportunities in direct response to their individual interests and skills. Our children are immersed in experiences that enhance language, literacy, a sense of music and rhythm, and socialization so that they may develop independence, confidence and a positive sense of self and the world around them. We serve our children breakfast, lunch, and snacks each day, all prepared in our on-site kitchens. Formula is also available for our Infants. We are proud members of the Keystone STARS (Standards, Training/Professional Development, Assistance, Resources, and Supports) program, a quality rating system that promotes quality improvement in early learning and development programs and school-age child care. A Keystone STARS designation means that children are in a safe, respectful environment in which they are learning new things every day to support their current and future successes in school and in life.

I have had extensive experience as a baby-sitter and at one time I was a teacher's aide for special needs children. I am confident in the skills that I have acquired from my education, experience and believe I would be a great match for most children. What words cannot express is my professional demeanor as well as my ability to possess patients as well as understanding when dealing with children. In the childcare field, these qualities are of the utmost importance in dealing with parents as well as children. In me, you'll discover a reliable, detail-oriented, extremely hard-working person and wants only the best for the children I care for. One who will serve as a role model and encourage children. I prefer to care for children from my home but I am willing to travel a short distance if needed.

Alicia's Daycare

My name is Alicia, and I am opening an In-Home Daycare in the beginning of February. Previously, I was a preschool teacher at one of the Goddard schools in the area. From working there I have gained a lot of knowledge on how to effectively run a fun and nurturing learning environment. I absolutely loved my job as a teacher, and getting to interact with the children. The only reason I have now decided to start a daycare; is because in November I gave birth to my daughter and would like the opportunity to stay home with her, but to still be able to put my skills and love for teaching and caring for children to use. Also, from working at the preschool, I have all state mandated clearances including a Pennsylvania Abuse History Clearance, National Background Check as well as a State Police Background Check, child care references, and CPR, First Aid and Fire Safety training. I am looking to watch 3 children, full-time if possible, in my home in Middletown, Pennsylvania. My hours are very flexible Monday through Friday to best meet the needs of the families I will be providing services for. Weekends occasionally, if needed, may be provided. I will be providing any meals and snacks that the children need, unless there are specific needs, allergies, or substitutes made by parents; or if the child is still formula/breastfeeding or still on baby food. I will strive to create of fun and nurturing environment where your children can grow and learn, and provide them with fun activities that they can engage in to stimulate them and get their little minds thinking. I will encourage reading, art, and fun outdoor activities in appropriate weather as well. I will do whatever I can to best accommodate the families that I work with to make them feel as comfortable and as much like family as I can! The specifics such as hours and pay rate can be discussed upon inquiry. I am looking forward to working with you and your little ones as soon as possible!
