Kate's Kiddos Daycare

22430 Lakeland Street Saint Clair Shores, MI

At Kate's Kiddos Daycare we align our curriculum to the Early Childhood Standards of Quality provided by the Michigan Department of Education. Young learners are natural, enthusiastic learners. Their impulse to ask questions, to investigate, and to explore, examine, and experiment, comes from a burning curiosity about the world and a desire to understand things. We work everyday to install a love for learning through discovery, discourse, and, most importantly, play! We do this through Discovery Centers, Music and Movement, and Sensory Play. I graduated with my BA in Elementary Education with a major in Literature Arts with coursework in Early Childhood Education. I taught grades k-6 in S. Korea, substitute taught grades k-12 in MI, and taught first grade gifted students in AZ. I LOVE children and teaching, however, after becoming a first time mommy I needed to walk away from my career in education to focus on my son. Now that my son is older, I want to return to my passion of educating and caring for children. I enjoy teaching my son through sensory play and discovery of the world around him. I know that I can provide this same care for another family in need! I'm so blessed to be a stay-at-home mom, but I'm still a teacher at heart and want to provide my expertise in child development and learning to a family, while providing child care!
I am a home-based Christian daycare blended with preschool curriculum. I have worked in Early Childhood for almost 15 years now and have two grown children of my own. Over the last 10 years, I have seen a gradual decline in the quality of our children's education. Sadly, the focus has turned from educational results being evidenced in our children, to the learning center's desire to look good on paper. In knowing that the first 5 years of a child's life are the most crucial, I want to offer families an opportunity to have their children attend a daycare/preschool that offers a small enough class size that allows for plenty of one-on-one learning while also being able to offer other lifelong skills such as proper socialization, problem solving, and team work. I take pride in what I do and feel honored to be chosen to work with families and their children. I offer a curriculum that is a blend of Creative Curriculum/Teaching Strategies and Abeka. We assess the children's progress using Teaching Strategies 64 Goals and Objectives in the areas of Social-Emotional, Physical, Language, Cognitive, Literacy, Mathematics, Science and Technology, Social Studies and The Arts. Today, Kindergarten is more advanced than in the past. Children are expected to know a lot more when they enter into Kindergarten. My program is set up to have your child Kindergarten ready! I offer a smoke free environment in a bright cheerful homey setting. My home has lots of natural light, which I love. We go outside daily, weather permitting. We supply snacks and healthy home cooked meals. Give us a call and come check us out. You'll be glad you did.

Hi Moms & Dads, I've Been a Professional Mom for over 9 years now. I love what I do!!! My home is dedicated to your child having FUN and Learning as he/she comes to my home each day! We do Pre-School activities and have lots of fun indoor as well as out door play time! My back yard is fenced in with tons of toys for all aged children to play on. In the warmer months we walk to the Warren Fountain (with your permission) to play in the city fountain! On the other Hot days, we have fun in my back yard on a slip-n-slid or a sprinkler, or a toddler sprinkler mat for the babies! (can't forget the wee-ones) My Home is very open and I have a ton of room for the kids to burn off energy on the rainy days or during the winter months. I have activity centers for all age babies for as they grow. But personally, I prefer to hold them as much as I can! I'm not going to be having any more babies myself. So I DO enjoy the babies when a new family comes to my Daycare or an existing family has a new baby!!!! (smile, as any mommy should!) When they become more mobile I like to have a section of my living room closed off from the older kids, so the babies have their time to explore their new world and surroundings!) Every child has a pack-n-play (crib) that is dedicated to him/her while they are here at Jen's Bean Sprouts! Their sheets are changed daily - if needed, or at the end of the week and washed in a hot bleach wash. I like to make sure your child is as healthy as possible while they are in my care! The older children sleep on cots with sheets and blankets. So if your child has a special animal he/she likes to sleep with that's OK with me!!! I'm a MOM 1st!!! So if your child is hungry or thirsty he/she will get food or drink when he/she likes. I do NOT, believe a child should only eat 3 meals a day. So not to worry about how often your child ate here. So if all of this sounds good and you would like to meet me. Feel Free to Give me a call at: Jennifer Collins 586-872-5389
