I also don't claim to offer a preschool program...or any particular "program" to be honest, but I absolutely believe that I offer quality care. I care for, feed, clean, keep safe and entertain the kids and I also include lots of learning activities (structured and unstructured) into our days. That is my idea of quality care and the parents who have signed with me seem to agree. I do not have a curriculum as a school would because I am not a school...I am a home daycare...and the kids feel like they are at home when they are with me (hopefully). I take mainly 1 and 2 year olds, but if I had a group of 3 year olds I would do more crafts, more preschool type activities, etc...I am not sure I would call it a program still...but I would call it quality care. Different strokes for different folks.

Teaching kids and getting through to them is a special gift and not everyone has, even those with degrees.
