WELCOME PARENTS! I currently have 2 openings for ages newborn-4 years old! My name is Danielle and I have been caring for children for over 30 years. I have 3 children of my own who are all grown up :( I absolutely love caring for the little ones in my daycare, I am definitely doing what God created me to do :) I decided 15 years ago to have my own in home licensed daycare to give parents a much better childcare alternative for their babies/children than daycare centers. It has been extremely rewarding and I love it even more now than I did when I first started! I am certified in CPR and First Aid. I have my Fingerprint Clearance Card and my Daycare/Preschool is licensed in the state of Arizona. The parents of the kids in my care are my greatest referrals; they're always telling me that I give them peace of mind, they know their kids are safe, loved and well cared for. Although I care for different ages everyday, it is structured, consistent & eventful! We have learning time, story time, music and most days, outside time. I prepare children who are 3 yrs. of age and older for Kindergarten by following a preschool/pre-k curriculum and 3~4 days/week we do worksheets & art. My home is immaculately clean & so much fun for your little one :) I show kids how to love and treat others by demonstrating God's love to them. I stress the importance of manners, respect, kindness and love! Please call me (623-261-9678) to set up a meeting in my home. I look forward to hearing from you! RATES $240 weekly (3 days or more) Infant $250 weekly

Johanna says "We love Danielle and so does our daughter. It's nice to not have to worry when she is in her care. Highly recommend!"

We have 3 adult staff with training and credentials in Early Childhood Education that work with our COOP teachers to develop developmentally appropriate lessons aligned to Arizona's Early Learning Standards.

Hello, My name is Jazmin my mother ran an in-home daycare while I was growing up. As a pre-teen I would always assist her. Since then I have ran my own in-home daycare, and have been a back up provider for other care providers. I am a stay at home mother of three boys. I am looking for 1-2 children to care for. I am a Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician. Therefore, your child will always ride safely in the vehicle with me. I am a firm believer in positive discipline. Some would describe my parenting style as "AP." I live near a local park and library which we visit often. I am a member at The Phoenix Children's Museum and The Phoenix Zoo; we visit each place about 1-2 times a month. The children really enjoy these fun filled places! I offer crafts and preschool. My style is a mixture. I do a little bit of Waldorf, Montessori, and Conventional lessons. We do plenty of crafts. We are lovers of the arts, we love to have spontaneous dance parties, sing (The Laurie Berknerr Band is the house favorite.), and play instruments (some that we've crafted ourselves). A bit about myself: I am a loving, caring, compassionate person. I've been around the child care profession my entire life. My mother, grandmothers, and aunts have all ran their own daycare. I absolutely love what I do.

Hello everyone. My name is Audrey. Welcome to my page. I hope you find what you are looking for. A little about myself. I'll be 26 soon. I'm dependable, independent, family oriented &amp; loveable. I have a strong passion for ASL (American Sign Language) and my love for babies &amp; toddlers is unexplainable, so I decided to combine the two and start an in-home daycare. Here at My First Signs Learning Center, we have two MAJOR missions. Our first mission, is to shower your infants and toddlers with love and affection, all while preparing them for their journey into Kindergarten and beyond. Second is to have your infant be able to communicate with you (Mom &amp; Dad, etc.) before verbal language, through ASL (American Sign Language). YOUR CHILD, OUR TOP PRIORITY: Nurturing and care. Safety and security. Our priorities for your child are the same as yours. At My First Signs Learning Center, we know that highly responsive care early in life is critical to your child's long-term social academic development. So in our safe daycare environment your baby will not only be loved and cared for, but our highly trained teachers will stimulate your baby's cognitive, emotional, and physical development. Learning from the start is our exclusive, milestone-focused approach to child care and early education. It was developed to focus on the key developmental milestones specific to infants and toddlers. Your child's journey on the School Readiness Pathway begins here. We emphasize your child's development, rather than specific age, because all children grow and learn at their own pace, and in their own unique way. Activities are designed to address the individual needs and abilities of each child, in each classroom. Learning from the start stimulates and exposes learning concepts in a fun and engaging way with a focus on reaching and mastering emerging milestones. We explore: *COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT *LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT &amp; COMMUNICATION *PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT &amp; HEALTH *SOCIAL &amp; EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT. Individual and group experiences allow children to interact with each other, as well as their environment. In addition, the classroom has been specially designed to be comforting and stimulating, and to further maximize teacher-child interactions and learning.
