Hello, my name is Angelina Cintron and I operate a homemade Childcare Center in the local Astoria area in area code 11106. The Early Scholars Education Program operates on the notion that children grow and learn most efficiency with consistent hands on exploration and experiences. This program promotes young children to make their own decisions and seek discoveries from a nurturing and positively stimulating atmosphere. While cultivating each child's unique personality, I also strive and take pride in preparing and guiding their social growth based on an invigorating group setting. Children are also prepared for early academics as they grow towards their school aged years. Recognizing that no two children are on the same developmental path, this program adjusts purposeful education that incorporates flexible learning and care to foster each child's individual needs and interests. More than just a daycare, I offer young children the opportunity to become a part of a loving, healthy, and safe community to help them flourish and reach their true potential. This program provides care for ages 6 weeks to 5 years old and school aged during Summer and days schools are closed. Please contact me for a tour/interview at 347-832-0320, 914-355-0320 or earlyscholars@hotmail.com Services offered: *Flexible and affordable tuition rates and hours (please inquire within) *3 Daily Nutritious snacks *Weekly Lesson planning to promote early academics tailored to your child's current age and developmental stage *Emergency/Drop off Back up care *Outdoor exploration *Daily reports/documentations of your child's developmental progress via email and paper (including photos and live video ) Qualifications: *Associate's degree in Early Childhood Education (birth-2 years) *Trained in (adult and pediatric) CPR, First Aid, AED (manual and automatic) and fire extinguisher usage. *M.A.T (Medication Administration Training) to administer over the counter and prescribed medications. *Qualified to diagnose and treat airway obstructions, external bleeding and shock, broken bones, burns, hygiene/sanitation and evaluate hazardous symptoms by establishing basic medical treatments for adults, young children and infants.

Caring With Joy Daycare's primary focus is to provide childcare to children in a healthy, loving, happy, and safe environment. We believe that children at these ages are in the most critical learning stage of the human life cycle. What they learn at this age can have an impact on their successful lives later on at an emotional, social and academic level. We believe that children should enjoy and explore their creativity while it is at it's peak! Caring With Joy's fun and interactive curriculum will challenge children to use their logic and creativity to solve problems and learn while having fun and embracing their own progress, skills, and their unique personalities. We provide a classroom structure and we specialize in getting children ready for school by teaching them the basic fundamentals that are needed for them to excel and also have a separate curriculum for infants, so each child is engaged throughout the day in an age appropriate curriculum. We also provide potty training. Our staff is certified in infant and toddler CPR and First Aid. We offer nutritional meals and snacks in a clean, loving environment!

FAQs for finding drop-in daycares near you in Ridgefield, NJ

Drop-in daycare near you in Ridgefield, NJ 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 Ridgefield, NJ, be sure to mention the age of your child or children and confirm they accept children in that range.

While drop-in daycares in Ridgefield, NJ 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 Ridgefield, NJ, it is important to make sure that you are bringing all of the necessary items for a successful and enjoyable experience.
