I am a mother of 4 children 15 to 28. I have been doing daycare from my home since my last child was born...15 years now.
I provide a home away from home environment meant to help children with basics, such as sharing, manners, kindness and above all caring and having fun.
I am not regiment in my routine, but we do learn our letters and numbers. I feel that while they are still little they need to enjoy being children, school will get them soon enough.
This is a clean, non-smoking environment.
Although I have not had a huge amount of experience dealing with children with special needs, I have had experience with children with Autism.
