Marshfield Preschools

I am a licensed home family child care provider. I have had many years experience and can provide references. I live on a quiet street in Marshfield. I am licensed for 8 children. This number includes 2 school age children.

Our experts designed our classrooms - and every activity and lesson - to help prepare your child for success in school and beyond. With designated learning centers such as dramatic play and blocks in every classroom, children have the opportunity for rich social play and child-initiated discovery.
You’ll also find that our classrooms feature a print-rich environment full of carefully selected materials, written charts and labels, and children’s literature. By helping your child connect spoken words and print, we’re helping develop early literacy and writing skills.
Whether your child has first words or first grade on the horizon, we’re excited to show you how everything in our center is designed for learning!

For the past two years, I have worked as a full time private nanny for 3 young children, whose present ages are 2, 6, & 7. This experience had been tremendously educational and rewarding. Upon request, this family may provide a detailed reference on my behalf.

Prior to this, I received an undergraduate degree in psychology from UNC Chapel Hill and masters degree in mental health counseling from Boston University School of Medicine. After completing my education, I worked for two years as a trauma therapist for a south shore mental health agency, where I provided counseling to both children & families. The job was emotionally intense, ever-challenging and eye-opening. It ultimately led me to the realization that I want to promote healthy lifestyles for children & families.

There's been no looking back since. I'm now working from home, operating Dux Daycare - a licensed, insured daycare for infants & toddlers that emphasizes positive health behaviors; local & organic eating; eco-friendly practices; and Montessori-inspired learning & play activities. I am now accepting full & part time, and my schedule is as follows:

Starting August 29, 2011, I will operate on the local school schedule, open M-F from 6:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. I am also running a summer program starting July 11 - August 12, 2011, M-F, 7 a.m. -5 p.m. Ideal childcare for local teachers, school employees, or parents who work from home.
