    Ditto I tell clients that from 7:30 - 4:30 I am wearing my 'daycare hat' and this is why these are my program hours but if you use extended hour care you get 'multi tasking' hat and I am doing prep for program, for meals and lunches and in the evening clean up and meal prep for US ... take it or leave it. One of the perks in working from home is I can also multi task at lunch and do home chores as well ... but whose kidding I am usually exhausted and instead sit on here trying to recharge my battery and talk to grown ups
    Children construct their own intelligence. The adult must provide activities and context, but most of all must be able to listen. Children need proof that adults believe in them. Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
Updates
We expect providers to keep their listing and available openings up-to-date. However, to prevent oversights, openings expire after 45 days.
