My program combines the structure and schedule of a typical preschool classroom with the comfort of a home environment. This helps children prepare for a transition into a kindergarten classroom. There is sensory play such as play dough or finger painting, time for pre-academics with letter and math games, read alouds, storytelling/story acting and other pre-writing activities. We spend a lot of time outdoors at two nearby parks to encourage free play and exploration and gross motor movement. We will have daily whole group meetings and activities as well as plenty of time for independent and group play. I encourage kids to step outside their comfort zone and try new things, even if it's hard. Maintaining routines and order is greatly beneficial and something I take seriously. Having clear and consistent boundaries and expectations makes everyone feel safe and respected. But while I firmly believe in structures and routines, there will be plenty of time for spontaneity and lots of fun! What is NeighborSchools? NeighborSchools helps experienced caregivers launch and operate licensed home daycares in Massachusetts. With better ratios and experienced caretakers, home daycare allows for more individualized attention for infants and toddlers.

We follow a daily routine that can vary according to child age and interest. Typically, circle time follows breakfast, and during circle time, we have lots of learning routines. Children in my program learn numbers, letters, shapes, colors, animals, and lots of other things. We do this through images, motions, speaking, conversation, and repetition. After circle time, we often play outside and then move to independent work or free play leading up to lunch. The afternoons include napping, activities such as dramatic play and arts and crafts, dancing, and more play. I love to participate in activities with the kids. We dance together almost every day, and I show them how to do the stretches and exercises when we do those. I'm not just having fun with the kids, though. I take my job as their teacher very seriously, and children leave this program prepared for all that they will find in Pre-K. What is NeighborSchools?
