Welcome to The Sunflower Patch Home Daycare! I am currently enrolling children, ages 6 weeks through 5 years (Pre-K). My goal is to provide a safe and happy place for your child to grow and develop while in my care. I focus on their emotional, social, physical, and cognitive development.

About the Program and Curriculum: Each week we focus on a theme, and planned activities include circle time, arts and crafts projects, songs and finger plays, language development, sensory play, math skills, science exploration, story time and more! We go outside in the morning and afternoon, weather permitting, to play in our fenced-in yard. We have a variety of age-appropriate toys available both indoors and out. The daycare room is arranged into learning centers, such as dramatic play, blocks, art, language, a train table, etc. A morning snack, lunch, and afternoon snack are provided for children eating table foods. Hours and Tuition Fees: I am open from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Tuition for full-time enrollment if $250 per week or $60 per day for part-time. If you need early care (before 7:30 a.m.) or extended care (after 5:30 p.m.), it can be prearranged at the rate of $10 per hour. About myself: -I am the mother of two young children. -I have over 15 years of professional experience in childcare and education. -I have a Bachelors degree in Psychology and a Masters degree in Instruction and Curriculum. -I am a NJ certified elementary school teacher. Please contact me for more information and to arrange a visit. I look forward to meeting with you to discuss how I can help meet your family's childcare needs.

I offer a Home Away From Home for your child. I am a mom of four myself (ages 15 - 21) and all children I care for become part of our family, even long after I stop caring for them on a regular basis. I have over 30 years experience caring for children other then my own, the last 6 years of which have been full-time. I have glowing references from all parents along the way. My promise to all parents whose children I care for is that I will care for your child as if they were my own; I know no other way. At the end of each day, you will go home with a detailed list of what and when they ate and took naps. My working hours are 8 am - 6 pm; however, I am willing to extend that occasionally for $10/hour, when the need arises. For the last 2 years I have cared full-time for a now 2 year old, and recently welcomed his brother into our group when he was only 8 weeks old. (Note: I also cared for their older brothers, who are now 8 and 6, for 2 years when they were similar ages). The 3rd child I care for is a 2 1/2 year old girl, who comes to me 1 - 3 varying days each week. Therefore, I have 1 - 2 openings. My weekly rates are $275 full-time for infants on bottle/baby food (which you provide) and $300 full-time for toddlers and older (includes breakfast, lunch, snack and all milk). Daily rates are $60 for infants and $65 for toddlers and older (food as detailed above). I will not care for more than 4/5 children at one time, with the exception of a 4 year old who I watch during the school year from 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm. I look forward to welcoming your child into our Home Away From Home.

Hello! I have a Master's degree in Education Counseling and many years of experience working with children. I try to keep my family childcare small as I focus on different activities during the day and want to be able to offer high quality care for your little one. We often have trips to the local zoo, libraries and parks. We have a wonderful swing set in our backyard, we have a bouncy house/jumper for the older kids, and all kinds of water fun during the hot summer days. I am a stay-at-home mom in Clark, New Jersey to my 5-year-old son and a 2 year old girl. My son will be attending kindergarten in September, so it will mostly be my daughter and I at home. I have very high expectations of childcare and therefore I myself decided to stay home with our kids. However, in order to stay on top of my professional career, I do work part-time as a psychotherapist in Cranford. My childcare is typically for families with flexible schedules or looking for part-time care. I speak fluent Polish!!! Cost is typically $10-$12 an hour. All Clark residents welcome. I'm only minutes away from Valley Road school. We also have a cat and a dog.

My family day care is a warm, happy and loving environment. I have been providing day care for children in my home since 1990, so I have a strong understanding of what children and parents need. I am also a mother of 2 daughters, ages 29 and 32, and a grandmother of 2 beautiful grandchildren. For these 24 years, I have had only happy clients, most of who continue on as friends long after day care services are complete. I look forward to Halloween and the Holidays when many of my previous families stop by to visit! I love to see how the children from my daycare have grown. My home is located on a quiet and safe cul-de-sac in the heart of East Brunswick, NJ, perfect for walks, stroller rides and bike rides which we go on often. I also have a spacious backyard with a patio, sandbox, small Barbie playhouse and swing set. My home is designed around my daycare, so I have designated rooms and spaces for play time, nap time, creative arts time and meal times. I value healthy meals, physical activities, creative arts, and educational activities, and I integrate these aspects into the day-to-day activities of my daycare. My home is inspected every three years by a NJ State inspector, arranged through my parent organization, Community Child Care Solutions (http://www.communitychildcaresolutions.org). This organization is also where I earn my daycare educational credits through courses that I attend on a regular basis on topics like nutrition, safety and emergency care, child development in the areas of physical and mental health, and engaging activities for children ages newborn-5. I am CPR certified and have been trained in first aid and I am a NJ State registered family childcare provider. I work with children ages newborn - 5, and I have had up to 5 children at my daycare at one time. Recently, I've had on average 3 children at a time. I prefer this so that I can tailor my care to the children's individual needs. My daycare is open Monday-Friday from 7:30-5:30. My fee is $200 per week. If you're considering my family daycare for your child, I am happy to provide referrals to you from previous families that I have worked with. I would also be happy to arrange a meeting where you could come meet me and see my home. I understand how important of a decision this is, so I want you to feel as comfortable as possible. Warmly, Rita

Every child is different. Every child is one-of-a-kind.

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.

I have run an at-home daycare within my own home, for the past five years. I have a Masters degree in Education, and use this to provide not only a caring, safe environment, but also an educational one! I love to be outdoors, read, do arts &amp; crafts and help with homework. Prior to offering childcare in my home, I was a nanny/babysitter for over 5 years for children ranging in ages 3 weeks to 12 years old. Once I had my own children (ages 2 and 5) I started offering daycare within my home, and have created a preschool-like environment where babies and children are lovingly cared for, and are exposed to both social and learning experiences. I am CPR certified, and offer full-time, part-time or summer care hours!
