Little Miracles & Milestones Child Care

603 Kensington Dr. McHenry, IL

8 mi

I am a loving, caring Mom of two who believes that children are one of the most fascinating, important aspects of our lives. I have experience with both typical and special needs children as well. My home is a fun, loving, and caring place to be. My goal is to provide a warm, loving environment that allows for a lot of one on one time with your child, with no more than 3 children present at one time, specializing in infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. I am very excited to be using curriculum from 1-2-3 Curriculum that will allow me to begin teaching concepts that will help them grow socially, cognitively, and emotionally. There is even curriculum for infants! We will be covering a different theme that lasts for 1 or 2 weeks generally and it includes, for infants: story time, sign language, small muscle movement, senses, singing, and dramatic play to name a few. For toddler: it includes books, art, numbers, dramatic play, and much more as well. For pre-K, it includes circle time, reading, music, games, writing, letter, number and color recognition, to name a few areas. Of course, there will lots of time for learning through play, and just plain old having fun! I have a variety of toys and learning opportunities available, as well as a fenced in yard. Little Miracles and Milestones is all about your child enjoying themselves in a safe, fun environment. After we have been together for a couple of weeks, we will then try to keep things as consistent as possible so that your child knows what to expect and when. Meals, snacks, and naptimes will be as consistent as possible, working with your childs schedule so that they know what to expect, which fosters trust on the childs' part. You are always welcome to visit at any time. I just ask that you knock on the door instead of ringing the bell so that we don't startle any sleeping children. Please feel free to call or text me at any time, as well. If I don't answer, I will call back or text as soon as possible. As parents, you are your child's first and best teachers. You know your child better than anyone else. I welcome your expertise in calming, favorite items, and anything else that will make your child feel comfortable here. You will also receive a daily sheet, showing what we did today, including naps, feedings, food, and fun! Susan
