I am an avid AP (attachment parent) mother of a 1 year old (September 1, 2013) looking to welcome 1 child around the same age into my care (based out of my house).
I offer:
- exclusive part-time care (1 child, other than my own, at a time); roughly 15 hours per week
- an educational environment (open ended toys, books, child lead learning, musical instruments, etc.)
- regular outdoor play
- nutritional food (mostly home-made, organic and vegan, all vegetarian - nut friendly)
- gentle nap times (floor beds - cuddling, back rubs, etc., and willing to babywear)
- cloth diapering
- baby sign language
- a French and English environment
- 'field trips' (with parents' permission)
- lots of love
Other tidbits:
- RATE: $10 per hour (the site required me to put a daily rate)
- I studied Early Childhood Education (although I do not have my diploma; my little surprise child prevented me from completing the program... Hehe)
- located on Gateway Road (very close to the 417 and transitway, in Nepean)
- home to a friendly dog
- breastmilk/feeding friendly environment
- ALL families are welcome :)
- low scent, all-natural products environment
- smoke-free
References are available (I have lots!). Please email me at colwell.lydia@gmail.com if you are interested in learning more about what I have to offer, and I will send you my FAQ's blurb. :)
