My name is Lauren and I am a former elementary school teacher, preschool teacher, and nanny (17+ years experience newborn through adolescence). I am looking to provide childcare from my home for one family. Our days are fun and educational while developing social skills and school readiness through PLAY! A normal day includes music, reading, dramatic play, art, problem solving, and activities that develop fine and gross motor skills. We have a large backyard area to play outside, as well as parks close by. I also offer enrichment outings, such as story time at the library, drop-in gymnastics classes, and music classes. I am a big proponent of learning organically through play while developing a trusting, respectful caregiver/ child relationship. Additional positives: -flexible days and hours -safe driving record -CPR and first aid certified -cloth diapers and breast fed babies welcome -non-smoker -can provide breakfast, lunch, and snacks -child development Read more courses and elementary teaching license completed -continued professional development in Resources for Infant Educarers (RIE) I look forward to building a relationship with you and providing your child with the best possible care.
