If you're looking for a loving and warm caregiver to watch your kids- you've found her! I am a loving SAHM looking to care for your children in my home. I have three wonderful children of my own. A 12.5 year old daughter, a 8.5 year old daughter, and a 5 year old son. They are all sweetnatured and well- behaved. The girls will be in school for a full day come Fall and I will only have my 5 year old son. I have 5 years experience running a daycare out of my home. I have worked with babies, toddlers, and preschool aged kids. I live in a quiet, friendly neighborhood with a playground in the backyard. I am conveniently located off of Route 3, Main Dunstable Area. As a Childcare Provider, my goal is to create and foster a loving and safe environment for your children. While your child is in my care, a typical day may include: Playing indoor and outdoor games, reading, free play, cooking, crafts, puzzles, circle time, music and movement, and gross motor play. We also like to take field trips to the park, the library, the mall, indoor playgrounds, museums, zoos, and go on nature walks and other special places like farms. Since my son is 5 years old, I plan to implement a kindergarten curriculum that I will teach to him and any in-coming children. The focus will be on counting, identifying numbers, Identifying letters and their sounds, simple sight words, rhyming, learning to write your name, social skills, learning to share and also more hands on learning like planting a seed and seeing what it becomes. I also like to cover character principles: learning to be kind, to share, to be helpful, patient, etc. Plus, we will be working with play dough, kinetic sand, and art supplies to help strengthen their fine motor skills for writing in the future. I also have a finished basement filled with toys and activities for children, with a large area to run around and get their energy out. We usually have a lot of fun and the day flies by. I would welcome your children into our family and would treat them as my own. Tidbits to know: -We file our taxes and will adhere to the rules for tax deductions for having a business out of our home. -References are available upon request. I look forward to hearing from you!

Does a regular daycare setting overwhelm your child? Is your child easily distracted and not able to achieve the growth and development they deserve? Looking for a smaller, more individualized environment? About Us PCAL Pals is a specialized daycare program where young children can be exposed to a social setting but receive more attention and expertise to assist in their growth before entering school. As a subset of the Center for Applied Learning, our program caters to children who may struggle in a typical daycare model. With specially trained staff and an intense social and emotional approach, your child s long-term well-being is our #1 priority. We focus on establishing prerequisite social skills, so your child is prepared for a successful transition to Kindergarten. The Pals program is a relaxing and caring environment that is dedicated to offer individualized attention but also provide an opportunity to develop meaningful relationships and experiences with peers. How We Engage Children? Recognizing the individual needs of each child (i.e. working on food and transitioning challenges, etc.) Promoting social skills growth Teaching self-regulation and self-advocacy tools Fostering each child s unique interests and strengths through group and individual activities Mission The Pals program focuses on the growth of the whole child through a play-based, creative, interactive programming. We promote this growth through a warm, engaging, and stimulating environment rooted in deep caring, and trusting relationships among staff, children, and families Philosophy PrideStar believes young children (ages 3-5) develop best through cooperative hands-on exploration and play, which is at the core of our program. Play develops qualities such as empathy, exibility, communication and capacity to collaborate which children need to lead happy, fulfillled lives. Cooperative play is a primary learning path at PCAL Pals. Our specialized environment provides ample opportunity for skill acquisition through play, to be applied to developing relationships. At this age, we believe that sitting and having a child count blocks doesn't compare to natural peer-supported activities and engagements. We want to capitalize on what engages children at this age so that they are excited for their future.
