Home Daycares in Quincy

Children grow so fast, especially at this age. Every day, they are expanding their knowledge, exercising their imaginations, and finding out what they really care about. Every day is a big step in their journey. It’s so rewarding to be part of their growth. After raising my own children and working at a daycare as an assistant for ten years, I felt ready to take my own big next step in opening my own program. It’s exciting to have so much to teach them, and it’s humbling to see how much they have to share with us as well.

Ms. Jacqueline’s home daycare caters to infants and toddlers, ages 3 months–5 years. As with every daycare on NeighborSchools, her program is licensed by the Department of Early Education and Care. That way you know providers have completed a 3-part background record check, and that their home environments have passed a detailed health and safety inspection. Ms. Jacqueline’s daycare is a great option for parents that want that small-scale, personal feeling with a daycare provider you can develop a real relationship with.

I’ve always loved caring for children, but I really became interested in child care as a profession when I had my twin daughters. I placed them in a Family Child Care program when they were one, and I volunteered to help as much as possible. When they went to pre-K at a local child care center, I decided to get a full-time position at the same facility. Almost a decade later, I am still passionate about child care. I just love working with kids, helping them learn, and watching them grow. It’s so rewarding. I think people often don’t realize how much children are capable of, so they don’t give kids the chances they deserve. I love giving kids the time to explore and realize their potential. Even before I opened my program, people in my neighborhood would always come to me for advice about their children, like how to monitor television time or how to encourage kids to read. With my daughters and in my career, I’ve picked up a lot of tips and tricks, and I love to pass them along. It’s up to the parents to decide what works best for their family, but I love to share my own perspective whenever it might be helpful. I think when children succeed, we all benefit.

The positive energy that children bring with them is so incredible. Every day at arrival, they are radiant with enthusiasm and curiosity. It’s such a good way to start the morning! Caring for young children has been a passion of mine ever since I was 12, when I first started babysitting. After raising three children of my own, that love for caregiving has never faded. Children are such a bright spot in the world, and it’s a privilege to be able to continue looking after little ones at my own daycare program.
