3841 Shakertown Rd Beavercreek, OH

The Nook was founded by Kim Harmon, a teacher with a MEd and BA in Integrated Language Arts along with over a decade of educational experience. At The Nook, the goal is to provide a personalized, standards-based educational experience for all children that enables each to grow and thrive. The Nook utilizes the Tadpoles system, which allows parents to view photos of their children in real time and provides electronic daily sheets and other communication. Ms. Sarah is your child's first exposure to formalized education. Her hands-on, comprehensive approach is a perfect beginning to a Montessori-style education. Infants will recieve quality one-on-one care that includes sign language and Spanish, as well as lessons that will specifically enagage your baby's early learning capabilities. At two, children enter Ms. Kim's preschool class. Here, children increase their exposure to phonics, early STEM, and social studies. In addition to thematic centers that emphasize concepts such as early reading skills, number order, and the scientific method, children begin a daily hour and a half structured preschool time. Once children are 3 1/2, they begin an even more rigorous pre-kindergarten program. The goal of Ms. Kim's pre-k class is to encourage reading skills, more complex STEM activites, and the social format that children will need to begin a successful kindergarten year.

Aarika W says "Kim is WONDERFUL with my girls!! They have the best time when they are with her! She has my FULL trust!"

Hello! My family and I just moved to McCordsville and absolutely love it here! I am 33 years old and a stay at home mom to my two boys. They are 3 and 4 years old and love to make new friends! I have a background in early childhood education, taught preschool while attending college and also watched friends and family's children once I started staying home with my kids. We are in a single family home in the Woodhaven neighborhood with a playground on our street! (My boys have a blast there!) We live in a smoke-free household. I am very flexible and reliable, so if you have any special requests I can definitely try to accommodate you and your children! I have flexible hours to work with your schedule, Monday through Friday. I'm ideally looking for 2 to 3 full-time kids (In addition to my two who are home all day with me. I'd like to keep my ratio low for personal attention). Part time and before/after school care is available as well. (I cannot drop off or pick up at schools, but am more than happy to see them off/on Meals and snacks will be provided as well. (I ask that you provide any diapers, wipes, etc.) I have reasonable rates and offer a sibling discount as well! My older son will be attending Kindergarten next year and is not attending preschool this year, so much of our days will be filled with learning activities. I'd love to include your kids in on our fun, too! Feel free to contact me anytime with any questions via email, phone or text! I'm looking forward to meeting you! Niki

Kelsey's Day Care

5125 Bayside Dr Dayton, OH

6 mi

My name is Kelsey. I have an 18-month-old son who I want to spend more time with. I had him in a home day care and was extremely unimpressed to say the least; too many dirty diapers and not enough attention. This led me to decide to quit my job and start a day care. I have been babysitting since I was 12 and my mom ran a home day care for most of my life. I worked at Saville Elementary School for two years with grades K-4. I do not have a degree, but am currently working on getting certified as a Type B Home, even though it is not required. I love children and believe the most important thing you can give a child is your attention. I encourage reading as much as possible and allowing children to express their creativity. If you trust me to care for your child, I can promise you that I will treat them just like my own. References available upon request.
