About Us:
Hi parents, I’m the owner and main caregiver, and I have 17 years of child care and early childhood education experience. I’m CPR & First-aid certified and hold a Bachelor's Degree in Industrial Chemistry. As a mom myself, I know how you feel when leaving your little precious one to someone you barely know, however, if you choose me, I will treat your child as if he/she was my own. My goal is to help families in the area by providing their children quality care and early education. I want my daycare to be their “second home”, where they feel safe and loved.
Curriculum:
Bren Mar Little Children's Place is a Montessori-inspired daycare. We provide a stimulating learning environment to help children develop valuable skills. Our program offers fun extra-curricular activities, such as gardening, cooking, and theater. We allow our students to learn through play, but we also believe in structured activities that will prepare them for school.
In addition to English, we also teach our little students the Spanish language upon parent’s request. Although we’re not a bilingual program, this is still a wonderful opportunity for your little one to become bilingual at a young age.
Program:
Our child care and preschool program is open all throughout the year from 7:00 am to 5:30 pm, Monday through Friday. We offer full-time care for toddlers, and preschoolers between the age of 6 weeks and 5 years old, including children with special needs. Meals are provided to kids in our care (lunch and snacks are included in the tuition) and to prevent possible allergies, our facility is a peanut-free and tree-nut free environment.
Safety:
To protect our children and staff from any type of diseases caused by germs and viruses, we wash our hands in between every activity including outside play, restroom breaks, and lunch. We deep clean at the of the day and soak toys in a cleaning solution. We rotate toys throughout the day, and toys that have been used are placed in a separate bin.
