I am the loving mom of 9 and 1 year old daughters. I have been doing daycare in my home for over 4 years. I enjoy keeping my daycare small for more individual attention to all of the children....I have only had 2 families at a time so far, and I just lost my family with 2 boys due to one going to school in a different school district. I am only watching one 4 year old girl with my two children at this time. We love to go outside (weather permitting) as I have a fenced in backyard with a large swing set, Step 2 plastic house, and sandbox. We also enjoy riding cars/bikes in the driveway, dancing to music, coloring, taking walks, playing games, and reading. We keep to a set schedule for potty time, naps, lunch, and snacks. I am DCFS licensed with CPR/First Aid certification. My husband and I have passed the fingerprinting/background check required to be licensed through the state. I am part of the state food program that will supply the food, snacks, and formula (if needed) for all children in my care. I am open to full time and/or part time - and to any age children. I am part of school district #114 (Lotus). Please contact me with any questions you may have.

Our days will be busy with art and crafts, reading stories, free play, going outside and taking walks to the nearby park. I have a large play room with a lot of toys and a separate play area for younger children. I will provide breakfast, lunch and snacks. I am CPR certified.

Hi! I am the mother of a 13-year-old boy and 10-year-old girl. I have stayed home with my children since my son was born. Over the winter, I took a part-time position as an in-home child care assistant. I have always loved working with younger children and really enjoyed my time at this business. After working at an in-home child care business I decided that I would like to care for one or two children at my home. My goal is to provide a safe, caring and nurturing place for your child. I want to be able to give a child the same care that I would want for my own. I believe that children thrive from love, structure and routine and will work with parents to keep their child on the schedule that works for them. As a mother and child care assistant, I enjoyed reading to the children and doing crafts and learning activities. As for babies, I will make sure that all of their needs are met, that they are mentally stimulated and have plenty of &quot;play time&quot;. I would be happy to discuss other services with you as in errand running and taking your child to any classes that you would like them to take. I am open minded and would like to help make your life less stressful. Thank you for considering me and please feel free to contact me with any questions.

Home Sweet Home Child Care is a Licensed Day Care Home that takes pride in providing a home away from home for your child while you're away. We promote a happy, healthy, and loving environment filled with manners and respect so the children can thrive, grow, and learn. My goal is to prepare the kids for Kindergarten which is accomplished through a Pre-School program, computer activities (ABC Mouse), a strong emphasis on reading, story time and helping children to learn to enjoy books. Crafts, baking, interactive science projects, circle time (Weather, Calender, Critical Thinking) outdoor play, and plenty of fun hands-on activities are all an integral part of the program. Dress up, singing and dancing, music, puppet shows and gross motor skills time is all part of the fun that the kids enjoy while learning. In the spring we plant a vegetable garden and harvest the veggies in the summer. Outdoor fun is part of the program if weather permits. Manners and respect are always encouraged. Breakfast, morning snack, lunch, and afternoon snack are meals served. Infant schedules are followed, and babies are cared for on demand with gentle hands and a loving heart. Singing, rocking, swaddling and holding are in abundance. Lights, sounds and music are all part of the stimulation for babies, as well as, exercises that promote eye hand co-ordination. Play time with boppies and tummy time are all on the daily schedule. Swings, bassinets, high chairs, gliders, infant seats are all the newest of equipment available and is provided at my home. CPR and First Aid certified. Licensed and Background Checked. References available upon request. Please call to schedule an interview. I look forward to hearing from you. Mary

Welcome to the Fields House! We are parents and we were completely unsatisfied with the childcare and education options locally so we designed the Fields House to be something different and unique. We thought of our 'wish list' we had when we were searching for childcare for our children, and we checked off most of the things on our list. We genuinely care for each child's wellbeing, their happiness, and hope that we build better tiny humans for the world. The Fields House loves the outdoors and keeps all of friends big and small moving and engaged all day long. We have a large fenced in yard, heated pool, splash pads, trampoline, giant playset, and all the outdoor toys a kid could ever want. When the weather brings us inside, we created a home away from home for our friends with a private library, cabinets packed full of toys, crafts, and lots of pillows and blankets to cuddle with. We encourage imagination play with several stations setup throughout the kids dayroom and challenge their understanding of the world by opening up discussions during meal times. It is utterly amazing to see the world through a child's eyes and to see the excitement of learning or doing something new. We are strong believers in consistency, allowing kids to be kids, giving space for creativity and imagination, and pushing kids to their limits. We think kids will only reach as high as you set the bar and kids are far more capable than we give them credit for. We are CPR/First Aid certified through Red Cross, and have completed training in SBS, SIDS/SUID, and Childhood Development. We also have Zoom cameras located throughout the Fields House so you can be a part of your little ones day. We are flexible and accommodating. We don't charge for sick days or for family days off. We have some kids once a week, some kids all week, some kids every other week and make ourselves available for whenever your kids may need us. We are open Monday - Saturday 530am to 730pm and Sundays from 10am to 3pm. If your schedule needs overnight care, we are there for that too. We would love to speak with you more, feel free to text/call/message us at your earliest convenience. Fields House | Ingleside, Illinois (224) 213-8841 Contact@FieldsHouseChildcare.com

I am currently a stay at home mom, but my profession is an elementary education teacher. I have decided to stay home until my younger daughter enters school. Until then I would like to share my love for children with your child. We recently moved into a new home with a large playroom upstairs, with ample space for many engaging activities. We also have a nice sized yard with a large wooden play set. My children and I love to read, play games, do puzzles and art projects. We spend as much time as possible outside, going for walks, playing and going to parks. I like to think my years of child care have made me the mother and care provider I am today. I would eventually like to spend my days back in the schools but until then I will be starting this new adventure, and hoping that your child will join in the fun. I think you will be pleased with your decision.

FAQs for finding a family daycare near you in Fox Lake, IL

When looking for a family daycare near you in Fox Lake, IL, the most important thing to consider is the safety, comfort, and well-being of your child. Depending on your family's needs, make sure to inquire about the family daycare provider's experience in caring for children of similar ages. Ask about their qualifications, resources available for learning and development, such as toys or educational materials. Additionally, consider inquiring about how the family daycare provider structures their days; if they provide meals or snacks; and if they allow you to have a tour of their facility. It is also important that you feel comfortable with the family daycare provider and that they understand your family's values and priorities. Taking these points into consideration when selecting a family daycare can help ensure that your child has a safe and nurturing environment in which to thrive.

When selecting a family daycare provider, families may want to consider factors such as location, value for costs, hours of operation, and licensing requirements and monitoring standards. Additionally, it is worth evaluating any safety regulations in place at the facility and paying attention to reviews from past or current clients. Upon visiting the family daycare near you in Fox Lake, IL, there should be a sense that it is clean and well-organized, and the staff should be friendly and welcoming. All of these aspects help ensure that not only are the family's needs met and children are receiving the best possible care.

When choosing family daycare near you in Fox Lake, IL, it is essential to be thorough! Consider what's most important to you and when choosing a child care provider, and don't be afraid to ask questions when interviewing potential daycares. You should also schedule a visit to meet with the family daycare provider and observe the environment. You may ask them questions such as: How does the daycare staff interact with the children? Are there toys, materials, and appropriate activities for the age group of children in their care? Are there any qualifications, certifications, background checks, and child-to-adult ratio of staff information they can share with you? All of these questions as well as any additional considerations that are important to you should help you make an informed decision.
