Hello! My name is Pam and I would love to meet your part-time (recurring) or occasional back-up child-care needs in my Plainfield home on any Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday! Most in-home child-care providers will accept only full-time, M-F children, but I am unique, and I specialize in PART-time care. At only $5 - $10 per hour (per child), you will find my rates extremely competitive. For multiple children and meal arrangements, my overall pricing is negotiable. As a long-time married Mom of two girls (16 &amp; 21), and with 15 years of child care experience, I have created a clean, bright, happy, baby-proof / child-friendly environment for the kids to learn and grow in. I am fondly called &quot;Miss Pam&quot; and have lots of TLC and one-on-one time to offer your little ones! I have a high sense of integrity and am very easy-going and reliable with a clear background check. Most of my 'children' are long-term and have stayed with me for several years. It's fun watching them grow and learn and develop! I've cared for infants, twins, toddlers, and older children over the years. My 'parents' (references) would be pleased to vouch for my integrity and give you their thoughts on my style and the quality of care I've provided for their children. Please see my numerous referrals within my Care.com profile My home is a *non-crowded*, safe, spacious environment for the kids to play in with lots of activities to keep them busy. On nice days, we enjoy the back yard and large play-area outside. Other times, we read books, play with play-doh, do puzzles, color, listen to music, or work on our ABC and learning crafts etc. I have quiet rooms for napping and am happy to maintain any schedule that you prefer. Having worked full-time for many years, I understand the struggle and constant balancing act that a working parent faces. Nothing is more important than finding the right person to provide quality care for your children. I am happy to be that 'right person' who will treat them with kindness and love, and provide good structure and an enjoyable, stimulating environment where they can interact, play and grow. If you'd like to get acquainted and put a face with a name, or come by for a visit and check out my home, etc., please feel free to contact me via text or phone at 815-258-5858 or through Care.com. I would love to meet you and your family!

My name is Kyrstin and I currently hold a bachelor's degree in Physical Education for grades k-12. I just moved to Plainfield with my husband and my two boys, who are 4 and 2. I am certified in first aid and CPR for infants and adults and I also hold an in-home child care license through DCFS. I offer an educational and loving environment for all children. I am just getting my daycare started and currently have two full-time openings. Because I have my two children, I only plan on having 2 other children full-time and possibly 1 child part-time. I feel that keeping my daycare small is necessary to give all children plenty of one-on-one time and attention. If you feel my daycare could fit your needs, please don't hesitate to contact me!

My name is Katie! I reside in Plainfield near Caton Farm and Route 59. I have been working with young children since I was for almost 10 years now. I started with babysitting here an there, then worked my way up to nannying and working with children of all ages everyday of the week. I did that until I started working retail to get some more experience. After going to college and switching my major numerous times, I realized I am chasing something that I won't be happy with. All the majors I tried pursuing did deal with children and/or families. One being an ob/gyn ultrasound tech, another being a nurse in a pediatric office. Well, I am truly happy when I am surrounded by kids and their innocence, all while teaching their pure minds. I am truly happiest when I am working hands on with children and doing that consistently, not just part of the time and the rest of the time doing paperwork. That is why I have decided to open up my own daycare, that I am excited to take very long term:) This is my passion so it will not seem like a job for me, which I am most excited for because that has been what has made me unhappy with my other jobs over the years. I dreaded going to work everyday because it felt too much like a job and a job I didn't really want to do. My philosophy is I lead by example and am a pure believer in letting children learn by experience with some guidance. From my own experience, children thrive best in that environment. They learn from doing things themselves and figuring out what works and what doesn't. Obviously they cant do that all on their own so that is where the supervision and guidance comes into play! I am big into making children feel comfortable so I can assure we will develop a family like bond and they will not want to leave Miss Katies house;) I will treat them as one of their own. They will have equal amounts of fun with playing just like children should but also have that learning time and structure that should always be implemented. I am one that loves being organized so there will definitely be a routine that the kids will fall into. I also provide breakfast, lunch, and snacks. They will have all the necessities, everything imaginable from outdoor things to indoor toys and I keep collecting more! My hours are M-F 7-5. You will not feel like you are dropping your kids off at a typical daycare. I look forward to speaking and gaining more family!

Hi! I am a stay at home mom who offers care to a couple of children in addition to my own 3 year old daughter. I believe whole heartedly in the individual attention and comfort that being in a home environment provides. Our days are spent learning through play, reading, pretend, creating and exploring our world outdoors. This is not a pulsating day care center that is constantly loud and going, going 24/7. This is a home. We also enjoy some down time to snack, relax and nap. I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old. I have always had a natural rapport with children. I have never met a child that doesn't respond to me. I really understand kids and make it my business to make sure they know they are loved, understood and appreciated for being uniquely, wonderful Them! I have been a mother for 19 years. I am also a former teacher at a Mommy &amp; Me program where you learn through play and music. I was a very popular teacher there whose classes filled up immediately. I believe that young children learn through having fun and enjoying their environment. I am always signing, reading, and just plain fun. I give all children in my care plenty of eye contact, one on one attention, hugs and love. I serve lots of fresh fruit and healthy, kid friendly meals. My home is very safe and chock full of games, dolls, trucks, make believe dress up, books, and fun! We love to be outdoors. I have a swing set, sandbox, water table, chalk, bubbles, sprinklers, ride on toys and a park around the corner. My backyard is totally fenced as well. I am a very warm, loving, patient woman who will be a friend not just an employee. I like for families to feel a part of our family and home. If I am caring for your heart and soul all day, you should absolutely feel welcomed and able to come on in, anytime you please. If you would like to talk further with me or have some questions, please don't hesitate to ask! I am always hopeful to build relationships that are mutually beneficial. Thanks for learning about me.

Delaney Tot Spot is an in-home childcare program serving children ages 1-5 years old. I currently have a certificate as an assistant early childhood teacher. I am working to attain a degree in early childhood education.I have been in the field for a about three years now. I have been working along side my mother, who has owned an in-home daycare for 3+ years as well. My mother will now be my substitute when I have class. My experience includes working with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. However, our program currently accepts 2-5 year old children. Delaney Tot Spot provides children with fun but educational activities. This program is play-based, which means that we will teach children through play. The children are not just left to play alone all day. We will educate them while they are engaged in play. We will set up open-ended activities/experiences each day. Each activity will be geared towards your child's individual needs and interests. Delaney Tot Spot will provide nutritious meals and snacks for all children. The children will have plenty of outdoor play time in our backyard play set. We will incorporate fun and educational field trips as well!

Preschool
In our preschool classroom, we place an emphasis on academics, mindfulness, and earth connections. We offer a daily focus on language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies. We also have art, music, and Spanish on special days of the week with our resident teachers for those subjects. Our academics are all about your kids. They learn about what they're interested in. If they want to know about dinosaurs, we integrate that into every aspect of our academic day. We teach them letter recognition, how to write those letters, the sounds they make, and words that start with those letters. For our older students or simply those who are advanced, we also begin to teach them reading. Most importantly, we focus on mindfulness in everyday activity. We teach our students to be aware of themselves and of others. We also focus on self-regulation and self-sufficiency to boost your child's confidence. Simple things like putting on their own shoes or getting out their own lunch boxes help them feel like they can do just about anything if they set their minds to it. Another part of this mindfulness is doing simple, age-appropriate yoga at the end of the day to help calm the mind and focus. As we are a newer school with a high staff number and low student number, this means that every child gets the focus and attention that they deserve. We have one Pre-K classroom with a head teacher and teacher's assistant that are present daily. We offer a flexible schedule, allowing you to choose whether your child attends full-time or even just one day a week. Tuition is flexible. We offer sibling discounts, a flexible payment schedule, and pro-rated tuition. There are 4 payment options 1 lump sum payment, 2 payments, 6 payments, or 10 payments. Please contact the office for further details as tuition varies upon need and other factors. This is why the cost is not listed on this page. To see more about our program and the rest of the school (Pre-K through 12th grade), check out our website! We would be more than happy to have you.
