Home Daycares in Pepperell

Every child is special and deserves loving attention. One of the things that is great about home daycare programs is that they are usually small, with lots of one-on-one time. I know from experience that this really makes a difference! Working as a teacher’s assistant, I learned a lot about what really works in a childcare setting and realized how rewarding it is to help and support parents with small children. I really connect with kids emotionally and understand their needs - and I love guiding them to do their best with their own special gifts!

I believe that providing a positive and nurturing environment will instill lessons that will last a lifetime! As an avid practitioner of play-based learning, I am always looking for fun themed activities, games and crafts that will be interesting for infants and toddlers using a lot of materials that is readily available around the house. I also use Funshine Express buttercups curriculum for themed arts and crafts designed for ages one to three years old. With a background in Business Administration and long-time business owner, I run my daycare with a healthy mix of flexibility and the predictable structure that children thrive on. I like to spend my free time with my two teenagers and husband traveling to different places, cooking healthy foods, trying international cuisines and watching movies together as a family.

I’m a mom of two, who used to work full-time in the healthcare industry and in public health, so I have first-hand experience of what it’s like to find child care. I know how frustrating the process can be! So when I opened Day Street Discovery School, I wanted to create the child care program that I wish I’d been able to find for my own daughters. At Day Street Discovery School we put families first, and we see parents as crucial partners in developing a child care experience that best fits their families’ needs. We do this by developing open lines of communication, so no questions ever go unasked or unanswered. From nap schedules to potty training concerns, I am always willing to collaborate with parents and families to find a solution that works for everyone! I feel very lucky to be able to draw on the passion I have for my children’s education and development, my own experiences with navigating child care, and my professional healthcare and public health knowledge to provide a service that I know is really needed for local families.

A nurturing environment is so important for children. This is something I am really passionate about – creating a place where children are able to thrive and succeed. I work hard every day to make sure that happens! Parents and caregivers are an important part of the puzzle too - when we communicate and work together it makes for happier children and families! I discovered how much I enjoyed caring for children at a young age, when one of my nieces moved into my home and I got to help take care of her. That was really the beginning of it all - when I discovered that teaching children and helping them succeed is something I’m good at and that brings me a lot of joy.
