Home Daycares in Rutland

My favorite thing about caring for children is watching them learn and grow. That has been a highlight for me throughout my 15 years of experience. I have worked as an early childhood educator in early childhood education programs, and most recently I have been taking care of my own children. People have said that I create an environment that is nurturing and comfortable. I focus on children's wellbeing, and I especially love to sing and dance with them. I’m proud when I think about all the children and families I've impacted over the years. That's what makes this work so special.

Working with children is a gift! I am a natural caregiver and a very loving person. From a young age, I took care of my sister and then all my nieces and nephews. I taught them, and my own children too – how to read and write – and found it so rewarding to see the kid’s confidence build as they learned these skills! I feel so lucky to be part of moments like that every day in my daycare program. I have a background in healthcare and taking care of people is my biggest strength. I’m so happy to be putting that to use, helping kids learn and grow to their full potential. Now that I have my own daycare, I could not imagine doing anything else!

A daycare program should be a place of joy and exploration! My program is all about free play, exploring the senses, and fostering a love of learning. I began working with children as a teen at my grandmother’s daycare – and that afterschool job quickly turned into a passion. Since then, I’ve worked with children as a cook, an art teacher, a one-on-one aide to a child with autism, and a teacher in a large classroom setting. These roles eventually led me to working with toddlers – and discovering that working with children this age is truly my calling! One of the best things about what I do is being apart of all the milestones (big and small) that happen every day. I love being able to support children, cheer them on, and celebrate their accomplishments – there is just nothing more rewarding!
