Description

ROBYN'S NEST

Dear parents,

Thank you for considering Robyn's Nest for your little one!

Robyn's Nest is a privately-run day home located in Mahogany (SE Calgary) and is currently looking for full-time and part-time children to join us beginning in March or late February. It would be an honour and a privilege to help raise your little learner into a confident, well rounded child. My day home is smoke and pet free.

I offer a safe, warm, fun, educational environment and treat all children in my care like they are my own.

It is my goal for your child to feel safe, comfortable and respected. The children have access to my entire home. Most of our time is spent on the main floor and in our developed basement, and I have a fully fenced in, secure back yard where we spend a lot of time, weather permitting. My day home is a well balanced mix of structured and non-structured activities throughout the day. As for structure, I think it is very important for children to have a consistent eating and rest time each day so a set schedule is followed. Other than these times, our days are filled with fun and many indoor and outdoor learning activities. We enjoying doing arts & crafts, painting, playing with play-doh, celebrating holidays and children's birthdays, having theme days and pajamas days, reading stories, dancing, drawing, playing dress-up, drawing on the chalkboard, story time, free play, baking and lots of outdoor fun. There is a park located at the end of the street with lots of green space for the kids to run around as well.

OPEN DOOR POLICY:
Please feel free to visit your child at any time throughout the day, the door will be locked for safety reasons so please knock or ring the bell. Parents can also feel free to call or text at any time.

NAPS/QUIET TIME:
I offer the children naps generally as needed. Currently the toddlers nap from between 12:30-1:00 to 2:30. Every effort will be made to ensure proper rest time or at a minimum, a restful quiet time. I am more than happy to accommodate whatever sleep routine you have set-up for your child.There will be no more than two children in a room and each child will have their own mattress/pack 'n' play. Light music will play if wanted and there is a baby monitor in every room. I will supply all sheets and pillows but feel free to bring your own if preferred.

ABOUT ME:
My name is Robyn, and my fiance Tom and I have two wonderful children aged three and one. We are both from Ontario and moved to Calgary five years ago and bought a home here in Mahogany.

Since becoming a mother, I decided to change my focus to childcare. I had been employed in the restaurant and hotel industry for the past 20+ years managing restaurants and most recently, working as a Business Consultant for Subway. I also attended a private college in Ottawa and graduated from massage therapy.

I know how important the first few years of development are for a child and a day home offers me the amazing opportunity to be hands on with the little learners to help them grow and learn new and exciting things every day.I am beyond thrilled to have this opportunity to watch my children grow up with their friends in my care.

MEALS:
I provide the children with well-balanced meals and encourage them to try everything but never force them to finish a meal. I offer breakfast, 2 snacks, lunch and beverages through the day. I also offer a vegetarian diet if interested. This is NOT a nut free home.
