My name is Christine Hernandez. I've been living in Laurel, MD since 1997. I'm married and have a grown son and teenage daughter. I have over 20+ years of child care experience. I've been licensed since January 2003. I hold a current CPR/First Aid Certification and complete 12 hours of child related classes each year.

I have a mixed aged group between the ages of 3 months to 5 years old. I'm open Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. I offer part-time care as well as full time care. I follow Howard County Public Schools weather delays & closings. I'm also closed for spring/winter breaks. This is the perfect daycare for Howard County teachers!

My goal is to provide a safe & happy environment for children where they can learn & grow through play. I provide a home like setting; therefore, I don't follow a strict routine. Your child will receive quality care in a warm & loving home. We spend a lot of our time outdoors when the weather is nice!

Welcome to Laurel Knowledge Beginnings. We understand that your children are the most important and precious things in your life, which is the reason that our staff is committed to providing all of our families with the highest quality in early childhood education. We have been serving children and families since 1992. We are NAEYC accredited and pride ourselves in following the criteria guidelines set forth by both NAEYC and our parent company, KinderCare Education. We believe in developing your child's educational foundation through enrichment activities that will further their social, emotional, physical, and intellectual growth. Our family oriented center provides a warm, nurturing atmosphere for the children. We look forward to serving your family in the future.

Welcome to the Russett Kindercare located in Laurel, Maryland! We take pride in serving each and every family in our care! We create a home away from home for many children, infants through school age, by providing a safe and nurturing environment where children can learn and grow. As a nationally accredited center, we value early childhood education and take delight in teaching a curriculum that has the stamp of approval by many experts in the education industry. In turn, we produce children with an edge of lifelong learning as verified by the Maryland study of school success. To develop the whole child, we collaborate with families to ensure the child reaches their full potential. Through this partnership we develop lifetime relationships that carry on as the children move through grade school, adolescents and adulthood. At the Russett KinderCare, we promise to deliver an unbeatable experience for you, your family and your child. 

Oasis Child Care provides quality care in a safe and nurturing environment. I offer infant, toddler, preschool, and before & after care services. As a certified teacher, I realize the importance of establishing a strong foundation in young learners to prepare them for elementary school. Every moment of our day is filled with fun learning experiences in which children are allowed to express their creativity. I differentiate instruction to meet the needs of all learners. From learning how to share and speak politely, to learning to read and write, your child will leave our program a well rounded lifelong learner.

Kids Kingdom Child Care and Learning Center values early childhood education as the foundation for lifelong learning. We offer child care services from 6 weeks to 5 years old. We also offer before and after care program for school age kids. We believe that each child is a unique individual and should be viewed, respected and treated as such. As the welfare and well-being of each child is paramount, we strive to provide holistic support of the child's exclusive requirements and interests in a nurturing, familial environment that fosters the child's development across all developmental domains.
We believe that the child develops in an orderly manner by passing through stages of development, which occur in predictable sequential fashion according to his or her physical, social, emotional and cognitive growth. We provide experiences in dramatic play, math, art, science, music, language, pre-reading and pre-writing. These experiences nurture and facilitate growth at each stage of a child's development.
Verbal skills are encouraged through group discussions and through one-on-one conversations between teacher and child and among children. These verbal activities enable children to develop the critical-thinking skills necessary to further learning. One of the teacher's roles in this process is to ask the right questions at the right time to spark the interest and desire to pursue a line of inquiry.
Partnerships with families provide us with invaluable information relating to cultural backgrounds and heritage. Our teachers strive to build the relationships with families based on co-operation and a mutual respect for the reciprocal roles that each play in the lives of the children. Partnerships with families are developed through daily discussions, newsletters and meetings. Moreover, The Kids Kingdom open door policy aims to facilitate an open flow of communication while maintaining confidentiality and respect of the privacy and wishes of each family, resulting in the highest levels of customer service. Partnerships with industry professionals assist staff development and expansion of the curriculum to meet the individual and collective needs of all children. Needs based on cultural identity, additional support education and medical interventions which all require greater individual knowledge and supported cooperative teams, assures all children are facilitated in an inclusive environment as best as possible.
