I have had the best experience with kids, I guess that is why I chose to open my own daycare. Being a mother myself, I enjoy the experience of raising children and teaching them all there is to know.
I am newly licensed but have worked with children for 18 years. I have been a preschool teacher at various preschools throughout the Coachella Vally since 1998. I am a certified preschool teacher and infant/toddler teacher. I love what I do! I am married with three daughters, and am open Monday thru Friday, from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. I offer breakfast, lunch and snacks. Indoor/outdoor play time, arts and crafts as well as circle time. Feel free to call me with any questions!!! I look forward to meeting your love bugs and being a part of their development!!

Guidance is required to ensure order, prevent injury, and ensure a child 's activities are not infringing on the rights of others. Guidance Strategies It is important that the caregiver 'sets the stage ' for a positive atmosphere and maximum opportunities for desirable behavior. This will be done by: 1. Explaining to the children what behavior will be acceptable and explaining the reason for the limits, doing so in a positive way; 2. Focusing on the child 's behavior, rather than on the child; 3. Allowing the children time to respond to the expectations; 4. Reinforcing appropriate behavior; 5. Being willing to listen and respond in a fair and supportive manner, and; 6. Observing children in order to anticipate potential difficulties.

FAQs for finding drop-in daycares near you in Thousand Palms, CA

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

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