Caterpillar Clubhouse

5605 Norway Drive Orangevale, CA

< 1 mi

JANUARY OPENINGS!!! Caterpillar Clubhouse is a home based Day Care and Preschool, A Place to Grow! My focus is on the growth and health of your little one through activity and play based learning. I also make it a priority to serve nutritious, whole food meals: fruits, veggies, whole grains and real protein. (Not the pink processed goop used to make chicken nuggets!) Our hours are flexible to accommodate your schedule. I have nearly 15 years of childcare experience. Starting as a Mommy's Helper at only 9 years old, I quickly progressed to babysitting for weekends at a time and then went on to work as a nanny. My experience ranges from infants to teenagers, though infants through kindergarten are my specialty. Second to my passion for children, is my love of education. Not only will your child's day be full of learning (no matter his/her age!), I am constantly continuing my own education in Early Childhood Education so that I can be the best partner possible in raising your little ones. Caterpillar Clubhouse is currently going through the state licensing process and will open in January 2014.

HELLO! :) I am a mother of four wonderful grown children, two precious grandbabies and a morning preschool teacher five days a week for Sacramento County. I have been teaching pre-school age children for over 25 years and in my current morning classroom for eight years now. I am extending my passion for teaching pre-school age children to a very fun afternoon learning experience in my Fair Oaks home classroom. In my 25 plus years experience guiding and teaching children I have found a pure and simple philosophy: " Provide a fun organized space with many play options, a schedule that is age appropriate with some fun change within it, warm, kind guidance with enthusiasm and you have happy children that just soar in their development. " I am able to get to know and understand the personality and learning style of each child quickly. This is highly important in order to meet their needs properly. I have created a light , spacious , organized learning environment in my home. This includes many very fun high-end toys, along with an ongoing assortment of learning tools I am constantly creating. We follow a fun schedule that each child comes to know and love. Choice time (open creative play), circle-time ( calendar, songs , movement and stories), Outside play ( gross motor development, sand , water, bubbles etc.), snack-time ( nutritious, manners taught and encouraged), puzzle time, art , puppetry. Fun~Fun~Fun!! My enrichment program runs daily from 1:30 pm - 4:30 pm with extended care available upon request. Call for a tour. Age 3 - 6 years . I will consider a child that is 2 1/2 years, potty trained and ready for a pre-school program.
