About me:
I am a certified teacher, who has chosen to stay at home until my children are school aged. I have 2 degrees: Uvic BEd [K-7] & BFA in Theatre. I enjoy nurturing learning, imagination, & creativity.

My partner Dave [a correctional officer for the province], my girls [4 & 8 yr old], & I are both excited to share our home & play!

Location:
Our new house [& locale of what was once "Sunny Days", and is now "Dandy Lion Daycare"] is located at 1-2871 Peatt Rd. I previously operated as an on-call childcare provider and for short term transitional care in my residence in James Bay until July 1/09. I have current and prior references.

I will gladly email out my care manual & client references to serious applicants. The caremanual is on my website as well
Admission conditions
We are a non-smoking home due to allergies. We prefer you to be non-smoking clients too, and at the very least do not smoke on our property.

We now have a lovely little puupy, a family-oriented Yorkie x Bichon named Roxy *8mos* old!

I am in the works of getting licenced for Family Care ASAP via VIHA. I am currently open to the occaisonal evening/weekend child minding for an hourly wage, if pre-arranged. I no longer do on-call with the exception of emergencies for prior/current clients only, though it never hurts to ask!
