I am a fun, energetic mother of two (ages 3.5 and 6) in the downtown/Victoria park area. Short drive from St.Mary's Hospital.
I am licensed with the Region of Waterloo, and have a criminal reference check, family services check, and very recent first aid + CPR training.
Meals and snacks are prepared daily, according to Health Canada's food guide. Accommodations can be made for children with food allergies.
I believe in child led learning and implement emergent curriculum into my childcare program. We enjoy open ended activities and crafts, as well as themed activities that suit the children's current interests.
We have circle time 2-3 days a week, where we sing our favorite songs and talk about the weather, calendar, or play a group game (parachute play, hot potato etc).
I frequently rotate toys, manipulatives and play centres to keep the children engaged and excited.
On nice days we venture out to playground and events at the downtown market (story time etc).
My private rates are;
Under 6 hours: $20/day
Full day: $35/day
I currently have an opening for a child under 3, starting September 2015 (with potential transition period in August)
