HISTORY: We open in June of 2002 in Mission Viejo, CA and moved to Ladera Ranch, Ca in December 2005. On the first years I just had the small license at that time I was working by my self, but in August of 2006 I get the Large Capacity licensed that give us the opportunity to work with my husband. Julio and I meet in Colombia our native country, when we both were at the Dentistry School, He graduated on sept 1992 and I graduated on sept 1993, we got to practice until july 1998 that we moved to Aliso Viejo, CA. I Work as a Dental Assistant in Lake Forest Dental office and at the same time went back to college to take ELS, art and Early Child Education after those classes I decided to change my career and get focus on the Early Education, that is the world that we really enjoy. PHILOSOPHY: I believe my job as a child care provider is to support the role of parents. I strive to enhance the physical, emotional, social, and cognitive growth of each and every child in a safe, lovely and healthy environment. Learning require children's active thinking as they play, explore, experiment, and interact with people and objects. Strong programs help children make sense of those experience. Play has enormous benefits for children. Play provides the foundation of learning. Though play children prepares to learn. These include concepts, such as letters, and numbers. As children play, they become involved in open-ended exploration, make discoveries, work on problems, make choices, and discover what interest them. We hope to see you again!

Hello! I am a loving mom of 2 beautiful baby girls, ages 6 months & 16 months. I know firsthand how hard it is to go back to work after having a baby. I promise to give a loving, nurturing and safe environment for your little bundle of joy. Children should be spoiled with fun & love as long as it is safe and structured. If you provide a safe-haven for your little ones, they can grown and develop to be smart, sweet, fun-loving and well mannered children. I also follow an age appropriate preschool style to promote early learning with crafts and exciting activities. I also work on providing a schedule of feeding, napping and playtime for a happy baby and the sanity of parents. We enjoy going for walks and playing along the green belt. I was taught by the best NICU doctors and nurses after my youngest was born prematurely. Before your child is discharged, you go through a long list of requirements to be sure you are trained to care for your special infant. I was also an instructor for My Gym, teaching children of all ages. I can also care for your newborn siblings for a deep discount for all day, part day or after school care. I would love to be the home away from home for your child(ren). ADDED BONUS...Once a month, professional pictures will be done of your precious babies at no additional charge (you can decline if you'd like). There is even hot coffee to go for you before you head to work. Care will be in my home. Drop off and pick up time is flexible. I can do early mornings, late nights and overnighters. No need to get your kids ready. You can drop them off in PJs and I can get them ready for the day of fun. All meals and snacks are provided, both hot and cold (with the exception of formula). Diapers are provided. RATES: $55 per day for full day (more than 5 hours and no more than 10 hours). *$40 for each additional sibling/cousin. $35 per day for 1/2 day (less than 5 hours). *$25 for each additional sibling/cousin. $250 Full-time & 5 days per week. *$200 for each additional sibling/cousin. $60 for overnighters (up to 12 hours).

I have spent the last 9 years watching children ranging in age from 2 weeks to 13 years old. I have watched children in my house and theirs, I have also gotten the chance to be a live in nanny, and I have helped out on family vacations before as well. I am comfortable with duties such as diapers, light cooking and housework, and homework help as well. I also have a well maintained car so after school activities are no problem either. I am 30 years old and about to turn 31, I have lived in the same place since 2001 and am engaged to be married. I have no children of my own as of yet. I love the outdoors, am an avid hiker, and love spending time with my fiance and my dog doing anything outside. I am also currently in school getting my early childhood education credits. I was born in Orange, CA but was raised in Oregon. We had a large family growing up with 5 kids. My up bringing was fun, a lot of playing in the river and hiking in the forest. I love my job and think that is the secret to a happy life. Love what you do and you never work a day in your life. Thanks for taking the time to check out my profile if you have any questions just ask!

Open doors and arms to those from the Children's Home Society of California! Open in Lake Forest since 2005, I have provided government licensed childcare for families with newborns to 4-5 years old. I love all of my children and believe it is important that they all are receive my full attention and personal supervision so i like to keep our group relatively small but am licensed for a capacity up to 8. I believe a home daycare should be more than just a place to be while the parents or guardians are a way at work, but a place to learn. In my home daycare I take pride in providing teaching for mathematics, reading and writing English and even Spanish (if you so choose your child to learn). The vast majority of children that leave my daycare to go into kindergarten leave with advanced skills used in school from multiplication to being bilingual. This is all at no extra cost. Between all of the learning, we like to have fun and work on art projects the children can take home with them. When it's time to eat, we like to have homecooked meals that meat all necessary nutritional guidelines of La Habra Child Development Child Care Food Program while also respecting any dietary restrictions and allergies. So please, consider Tweety Small Daycare for your childcare needs.
