I am 52 years old and have been doing licensed Group Day Care since 1992 with over 15 years of licensed day care experience. In the process I had seven children of my own, so needless to say my experience and love for children is vast. Most of my children are quite grown now. I am looking to do daycare out of your home. All children in my care are treated equally yet understanding that each child is different. Just like with your own children you love them all equally, but you love them differently because every child is their own person with different personal needs and personalities. My efforts are on loving the children while teaching them manners, being well behaved and respectful. I have strong patience and psychological understanding of a child's mind and where they should be at developmentally, emotionally and socially. Through education and over 25 years of experience raising children, I am well in tune to each child's needs. I provide a loving safe environment where the children can grow up feeling confident and secure, while also preparing them for school through learning in a fun manner and at each child's own pace. Success with raising children is with lots of love, structure and boundaries, yet also to allow them to express themselves in their own way and grow in their own time. Remember.... each child is their own person and in my care they will be raised as such and loved just as much if they were my own. I am exceptionally dependable and gracious for the gift of loving and raising children that was given to me. You will not be disappointed.

I've been a child care provider since 1990. I enjoy caring for infants through two years old. Cuddle time, mixed with floor play, swings, etc for infants. Cognitive and social skills for toddlers. Warm, home atmosphere, with a schedule that offers practice in time management, and knowing what to expect. I was an assistant preschool teacher for eight years, and went on to start my own childcare. I have three children and am an excellent grandma! Lots of practice caring and loving children! I am currently DCFS approved as a licence exempt provider for 1 or 2 children, age newborn -2yrs. old.

We are sad to have to say goodbye to two of our daycare friends, but are excited for the new adventures their move with bring them. In having to say goodbye, we have part-time and full-time openings for new friends in my Wheaton home daycare. I have been providing care within my home for infants to preschool-aged children for 25 years. I am committed to laughing, playing, and having fun exploring in a stimulating and encouraging environment in order to achieve each child's developmental milestones. Just as important is the educational aspect of care provided not only through playing, sharing, and the building of friendship, but also during table time to include coloring, crafts, and preschool readiness skills. I am excited to have new friends join in our daycare fun and look forward to further discussing your family's childcare needs. Sandi Gabel

I would like to take care for two children full time in my home. I am a mother of three. I am CPR and First Aid trained. References and letters of recommendations available. I have 29 years experience working with children in music and public elementary schools, YMCA, park district, daycare. I instructed child fitness classes, art/crafts classes, toddler programs, birthday parties. Currently I teach piano/voice at a local music school and privately late afternoons and evenings part time. We got a large yard with a Little Tykes playhouse, little slide and picnic table/benches for toddlers, playground park is 5 min walking distance. Inside I have a mini-trampoline, large exercising mats and age appropriate toys. I serve healthy meals, many homemade with organic milk, rBTS/rBGH free diary, most veggies/fruits organic, no toxic preservatives or dyes,no artificial colors in cereal, uncured hams, hotdogs. We do not buy pop drinks and we do not use white table sugar. We prefer stevia, honey, agave syrup and maple syrup. No harmful electromagnetic radiation - our router and modem are wired, home phone is corded. I attended an art school for eleven years and I like to do arts and crafts with children. We can sing and play on simple music instruments but piano lessons are optional too. Story times, games, outdoor fun with bubbles, parachute, chalk drawing. Children will have a lot of personal attention, less exposure to germs like you can find in large daycare centers. I can drive them to a preschool and activities as well, outings to parks, library, amusement places if parents agree and sign a permission.

Discovery Rainbow Home Daycare and Preschool has been serving families of the western suburbs since 2002. With almost 1000 ft.² of indoor space dedicated to the children, as well as 4000 ft.² of private outdoor play space, we’ve worked hard throughout the years to maintain a clean and well kept environment. Most of all every family who comes to us becomes part of our Discovery Rainbow Family. Here at Discovery Rainbow, we offer play based and structured learning providing your child with a wide range of age-appropriate experiences during their time with us. We provide breakfast, lunch and two snacks daily as well as special holiday and birthday snacks when we celebrate your child’s special day. All children get their own cot, pillow and blanket and are expected to rest once a day during our “quiet time” which is also Miss Jennie and Mr. Jim’s lunch break. We allow your child time throughout the day to play freely by themselves or with other friends. We also put older children into smaller groups for structured play experiences. We provide a year-round preschool curriculum focusing on letters, numbers, shapes, listening skills, communication skills, following directions and focus. We read stories that go along with our letter of the week or our preschool theme that week. As part of the holidays or special theme weeks, stories may be about Santa, Easter Bunny, friends, equality, acceptance, or behavior. We provide art experiences that help children follow directions, learn steps, practice their small motor skills, learn to cut, paste and be creative. Occasionally the older children get the opportunity for Cooking with Miss Jennie where they have fun helping make a snack, they will eat that day. It helps them learn to follow step by step directions, how to measure ingredients, math skills, and taking turns. We provide structured group times where we play games, have dance parties, and participate in large motor play with our indoor balance beams, etc. We have a fully gated yard and playground and try to get the kids out at least once a day, weather permitting. Above all else we try to teach the children to be respectful and show kindness, love, and acceptance to one another regardless of differences. To always try to be a good friend, take turns and share. Thank You for considering Discovery Rainbow Home Daycare & Preschool for your families childcare needs.

I have been a child care provider in my home in excess of 16 years. I have an associate's degree in Child Care and Development and have worked both in child care centers in addition to being a provider in my home. I have two children, ages 16 and 14. I am currently working with the children that I care for teaching them some basic sign language that I have learned to help with their communication development. One thing that I take pride in providing is the use of a child care app called Brightwheel so that you can stay tuned in to what your child is doing while they are in my care. Some of the information included on this app are diaper changes, foods, drinks and naps. We love to go for walks around the block, a drive to the library, trips to the nearby neighborhood park, water play on hot days and lots of fun age appropriate activities! As your care provider, I want to work in conjunction with you to help your child along in their development in any way that I can. I am hoping to form a long term relationship with your family. I do appreciate a family that is flexible should I need to run my children to a school activity before or after school, allowing their child to join us in the car. (I can give you advance notice to these outings most of the time) We are a non-smoking family with a friendly dog named Maddie (a Beagle that keeps to herself most of the day and is great with the children), and I would love to hear from you! PLEASE NOTE: My current availability is for a part time or potentially full-time spot for either an infant or a young toddler starting after May 1st. I am open to taking on a full-time child between the hours of 6:30 a.m. to 4:30 or 4:45 p.m. with some flexibility in the exact times. These hours allow me to be available for my own children's extra curricular activities. Thank you for taking the time out to read more about me, I look forward to hearing from you if my availability suits your needs!

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