My goal in my day care is to create a loving "home" environment as opposed to a structured "classroom." The children should feel comfortable, as if they were at home and at the same time learn and have fun with other children. All the children must respect each other and their surroundings. I hope that each day the children will leave my house having accomplished at least one thing. It may be sharing a toy or learning a new song or just having a fun day!
My day care is made up of up to eight children. The ages can vary between 6 months and five years old. Because the children are of varied ages, the childrens schedule must be flexible. Each day seems to be different depending on the different "moods" of the children! My motto seems to be "Let's Go With The Flow."
It is very important to me to have an open line of communication with the parents. I want the parents to be able to tell me it they have a concern about anything and at the same time, have it so I can tell the parents my concerns.
