We Care Child Care

170 S. Hillcrest Ave. Kankakee, IL

< 1 mi

My name is Meghan and my in home daycare center is called We Care Child Care. I am open from 5 A.M. until 12 A.M. I am very willing to accommodate schedules. I work with the county to accommodate low income families as well. I have two young children myself and am sending them off to school this year. I have always had a love for children and I am a very nurturing person. If you choose to place your child with me I guarantee they will be treated as if they were my own. Breakfast is ready at 7 a.m. After breakfast the children will have circle time. During circle time we read stories and learn our letters and numbers. The children get a snack at 10 A.M. After snack from 10:30 until noon they have free time. During this time they can choose what they want to play with. From noon until 1 P.M. we eat lunch! There after they take naps until 2:30 P.M. After we wake up we spend an hour from 2:30 until 3:30 on arts and crafts. Once we clean up we settle in for a movie until dinner is prepared. The kids will eat dinner every day at 4:30 P.M. until 5:30 P.M. Once dinner is finished they get another hour or so of play time.We give them snack at 7:00 P.M. We then settle down and read stories until off to bed they go at 8:30 promptly. I believe I was born to care for children. It is in my nature to be a care provider and give love to those darling little ones of yours. I also attempt to take them on trips to the zoo or museums when weather permits. I do have a large van and can fit up to 6 children. Let me care for your child and I promise he or she will come home asking when they are coming back every night!

I am teacher certified, CPR certified, and have one year experience in a daycare setting. I am able to care for any child from the age of 6 weeks and up. There are bus stops very close to my house for me to meet your school age child and care for them after school. I love teaching children new and exciting fundamentals to prepare for kindergarten, and most importantly, how to enjoy learning and still be a child. I have a clean, smoke free home. Will follow state required food plan, and will meet any special food requests you may need for your child. I also have a large toy room/classroom to do crafts, learning, and playing. I have a large fenced in back yard with a large new wooden swing set. I also have large, VERY FRIENDLY dog that I can keep crated if you would prefer. I plan to become licensed by the state, and that is a work in progress. It takes up to a year, but have the ball rolling. I am here to work for you and your family and am happy to accommodate any of your requests. Cant wait to meet you and your child!!

You can also check your options in Kankakee, IL for traditional preschool centers, or private home-based preschools.

When you begin looking for preschools near me in Kankakee, IL, consider your priorities and ask administrators about their philosophies and approach to common child care issues or occurances.

From there, ask about what a typical day consists of, what the safety protocols are and how discipline will be handled. Also, make sure to check directly with the preschool for information about their local licensing and credentials in Kankakee, IL.
