I want to provide your child with the ultimate preschool experience in a small group, home-like setting, my ratio is 3:1. I write and execute our own theme-based curriculum. I will provide you with updates on your child¡¦s progress and believe in an open-door, open dialogue policy.
No need to pay for lots of additional classes elsewhere either. As part of our curriculum, we will be learning Sign Language, Spanish and do a variety of Art (the messier the better sometimes!), Science, Computer and Cooking activities during the week.
Free play and lots of down time is a must in our home throughout the day but TV is VERY limited in our home. We will also be participating in educational as well as fun field trips such as library time, parks, the zoo and other local venues.
Previous Experience includes: Babysitting, Professional Nanny, Preschool Teacher, Montessori Teacher, Daycare Director for a combined total of 20+ years. I ran a theme-based internet preschool for several years and am currently creating a website for parents, educators and homeschoolers for theme-based activities.
Education: Degree in Early Childhood Education with a minor in Sign Language.
Monday through Friday but are negotiable/flexible for hours.
I charge $200/week per child for a child 2 years and older, 15 month-2 years I charge $225. I am not equipped for infants.
