I was a pre-k teacher for over 4 years and I totally loved it. I have had my in home daycare for over 4 years. I have been CPR certified, drug/ tb tested, full background checked, finger-printed, and I have several childcare and teaching training done. I am safe sleep certified. I am also continuing to get more training done. I have a portfolio available. I am a Mom of a 24 year old son. He is married and has a 1 year old baby girl . He graduated from Vincennes University, down in Vincennes, Indiana. He studied to be a law officer. I am so proud of him. I am married and have been for a little over 5 years. My husband is a gem! I have babysat children for years while raising my son, our home was always the neighborhood kids' hangout. I am excited to keep on this journey of taking care of children in my home. I was working in a state licensed level 4 childcare academy for a year and I loved it. I learned a lot and want to keep helping children get ready for school and have a safe, fun place while parents are working. I was a single Mom for years so I know how important safety and trust is. I plan on teaching what they need to know to start kindergarten and have fun playing games, doing crafts, coloring, and just learning how to get along with others. I love to cook, so the children will get healthy, good, home cooking for breakfast and lunch. Snacks will also be provided. I am always available for any questions. I have several references. As a Mom myself, I would suggest, please visit all the daycares you are interested in before your decision. Going cheaper isn't always better. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my profile. I look forward to meeting you. Tammy McClain

Hello! My name is Nicole. I am currently in my 6th year as a first grade teacher for FWCS. I am a full-time mom to my two stepsons, ages 6 and 7, and also pregnant with my first child! I am due in June and I am hoping to stay at home and have my own in-home child care. Before becoming a teacher, I worked at a day care facility. I was the lead teacher in a 3-4 room, but also spent significant time in all the other age groups. I am CPR certified, licensed k-6, and have 13 years experience caring for children. I will not be taking any children until the fall of next year, but wanted to put my name out there. I will only be taking up to 6 children, and currently only have two spots filled. Send me a message if you have any questions!!
