    Hi There

    My name is Laura. I have been a day care provider since 1999. I have 4 daughters which are 30, 28, 25 and 7 year old, 2 years ago I thought I had good experience with children, because of the year I had working with children and my own kids experiences. I was so wrong! When I started to go to collage I foundout I really had to learn more abot child develpment. Now I am a Certificated Teacher and now I can say I have good experience working wit children. I think there should be a law that enfrces day care providers to take classes so they don't mess on children's future. There is so much to learn... I encourage daycare providers if they haven't take any class to do so, it is very interesting and important for the future of the childrn's life.

    . I couldn't agree more; wise investment!
    Children are great imitators.
    So give them something great to imitate.

    I hear ya ~ I attending professional development and attending workshops and typically attend at least one PD option a month even being a certified early childhood educator and even after 25 years in the field I am still learning new things on how to improve my understanding and work with children ~ total lover of life long learning as it keeps me passionate about what I do!
    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."

    . Do you close the daycare on workshop days or are they offered outside of hours?

    Evenings and weekends mostly although I do close for 2 PD days in spring each year to attend the annual provincial conference for the AECEO cause typically need travel time
