Hi, my name is Mersiha (Mer-see-ya) I am the owner of Mersiha's Family daycare. Prior to establishing my own family daycare, I've worked with children of all ages at daycare centers, pre-schools, and as a nanny for families. I originally started my family daycare in 2015 in San Jose, California, right in the heart of Bay Area. My educational background is in Early Childhood Education/Child Development. For 10+ years working with children, my goal is to provide a loving and nurturing environment for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age children. My focus is implementing a schedule with daily activities that stimulate children's emotional, intellectual, physical, and social growth. While at the same time providing nourishment, supervision, and assigning fun &amp; enhanced play-based activities. My passion is watching children learn &amp; grow and creating a positive impact in their lives. Licensed by the State of Illinois, CPR and First Aid certified, Home Safety Inspection clearance, &amp; background check clearances. Contact us to answer any questions you may have or to schedule a time for you to come and visit Mersiha's Family Daycare.

Hello! I am a childcare provider and preschool teacher serving families on the northwest side of Chicago and its close surrounding suburbs. Within the last 20 years I have also taught dance, lead after-school theater groups, lead parent and tot classes and was a Sunday school teacher. I care for children ages six weeks to five years old. I am licensed with two full time teaching assistants. My home environment is a safe, clean, nurturing place where your child can thrive and grow. It is important to me that your child feels like my daycare is their &quot;home away from home&quot;, so the majority of my house is utilized for your child's sense of security and comfort. On the lower level your child will love our big play/classroom that is filled with learning toys and fun activities! I also have a cozy nursery on the main level for infants and a big enclosed backyard for exploration and play! I am excited to be adding a new music and movement room soon too! Being blessed to raise three daughters of my own I can understand how challenging it can be for working parents to balance all of their commitments and responsibilities. For this reason I strive to offer a program that will enrich your child's whole development while putting your mind at ease. Reading, music, creative movement, gardening, cooking, art projects, fun, and learning are a regular part of our daily routine. Healthy meals and snacks are also provided daily. I believe that my home daycare should be a place where you feel confident and comfortable leaving your child each day. Your little one will be cared for with the utmost kindness, love and respect. My current and former families love the &quot;family&quot; feel that they and their children receive while in my care. I look forward to hearing from you and answering more questions as you make one of the biggest decisions in the life of your child. Thank you for your time and consideration!

FAQs for finding preschools near you in Niles, IL

There are two main types of preschool programs near you in Niles, IL. The first is a full-time program that usually works best for parents working full-time shifts, and the second is a part-time preschool where your child would attend only two to three days per week and typically choose between a morning and afternoon shift.

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

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

Also, make sure to check directly with the preschool for information about their local licensing and credentials in Niles, IL.
