I have been doing childcare for approximately 14 years now. I have two children 18 yr old son (who doesn't live at home now) and a 15 yr old daughter who is in grade 10. I have been home with my children as they grew and found that caring for other children with my own was a wonderful benefit for all of us.
I enjoy working with children and experiencing new challenges together. The amazement of new things these children receive everyday is a reward to them and myself , whether it is through reading stories or playing or through a movie. We like to go for walks in our neighbourhood, playing and picnics at the neighbourhood park. I like to give the children healthy meals and snacks but once a week we get a treat (timbits, cake) I do a daily journal for each child in my care so that when they go home mom and dad can read about their day. I find this a great way to communicate with each other , do to home time being a very busy time for everyone. I do crafts with the children, celebrate most holidays and birthdays with the children. I have had a great group of children that start when mom goes back to work .

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
