Home Daycares in Fall River

I opened Jane’s Family Child Care five years ago when my two kids were in different schools and their schedules were really hard to figure out with the job I had. I love children, and this allowed me to help parents who needed good care while also having the schedule I needed for my own family. Now, my passion for early childhood development continues to grow, inspiring me to provide quality care for the children. My family also has grown so much because the children in my program feel like family to me. I have always loved kids, and running my program has given me a special opportunity to watch so many kids learn and grow. When they have individual breakthroughs and they show tremendous personal growth, it makes me so proud!

I have such a passion for working with little ones - I've been doing it for years and years! Now, more than ever, families are seeking loving and high quality care and I'm so honored to be able to provide it to my neighborhood! I started working with children as an educator in early childhood education programs 34 years ago, and I have been caring for children ever since. Opening my own child care program in my home gave me the opportunity to create the encouraging, welcoming environment that I think is so important. I especially love to sing and dance with them, but the truth is that so many parts of the day and the week bring me a lot of joy. Through it all, I focus on academic and social readiness. One of the best parts of working with children is watching them explore and discover. The work is incredibly rewarding, especially when I think about all the children I've helped grow and learn. It's such a gift to guide the children in my program as they grow.

Children thrive in an environment that is positive and welcoming. As a new mother, I couldn’t seem to find a daycare that felt that way, and found myself getting more and more discouraged. After countless daycare visits, it finally hit me that the positive space I was searching for was right in front of me – in my own home! It’s now fourteen years later, and that home has become a special place to so many children and families, a place where they begin to learn and grow and become independent. I just love greeting the children every day, caring for them, and being part of that growth. A big reward that comes from doing what I do are the relationships that bloom with children and their families during their time with me.

Children are naturally curious and creative, and it is so important to nurture both of those things. A safe, welcoming space is a key part of that. My home is comfortable, bright, and joyful, with something new to discover on every shelf and bookcase. My program is play based, so the children are usually having too much fun to notice how much they are learning, but I certainly notice! It never fails to amaze me how much children at this age are able to take in and absorb! Our community is a place where children can relax and be themselves. For me, it is a gift to be part of so many learning experiences and to provide a happy space where children can grow and thrive.
