About The Staff
Hi, parents! I'm the owner and lead teacher at Brightwood Park Children's Corner. With 20 years of experience in early childhood education, I’ve worked in many roles, from being a nanny to working as an assistant in another daycare. These experiences led me to follow my passion and open my own licensed daycare! As a mother myself, I understand the love and care every child deserves, so I’m committed to creating a warm, loving, and safe environment for children to learn and grow. I believe in building strong, trusting relationships with each family I work with, and I consider the parents and children I work with as extended family. I am certified in CPR, First Aid, and Medication Administration Training (M.A.T.), so you can feel confident that your little one is always in good hands. To ensure the safety and well-being of all children, we maintain a peanut-free and tree-nut-free facility. We provide nutritious lunches and snacks every day, included in the tuition, so you don’t have to worry about packing meals!
Hours, Ages, Programs
Brightwood Park Children's Corner provides both full-time and part-time care, as well as a preschool program. We care for infants as young as 6 weeks old, toddlers, and preschoolers up to 3 years of age. We’re open Monday through Friday from 7:30am to 5:30pm, and we operate year-round, including in the summer.
Teaching Philosophy
Our program focuses on a play-based learning approach, designed to help your child develop motor and cognitive skills while having fun. I use music and arts as key parts of our daily activities, as these creative outlets are great tools for helping children express themselves and learn at their own pace. Your child will enjoy a variety of hands-on activities that promote exploration and creativity. We also take occasional field trips which help the children learn through real-world experiences. Our in-home daycare includes a dedicated backyard space where children can safely play and enjoy the outdoors, a separate nap room, and a multipurpose room for a variety of indoor activities, from arts and crafts to music time. Thank you for considering Brightwood Park Children's Corner, please don’t hesitate to contact me on CareLuLu. I look forward to meeting you and your little one soon!

My child was under the care of the owner for 3 years and I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention she provided. She was always warm, welcoming, and always patient, making drop-offs smooth and comforting for both me and my little one. The learning activities are engaging and age-appropriate, and it’s clear that my child grew not just academically but socially and emotionally. She came home excited to share what they’ve learned, from new... more

I've known her for quite some time now, and I can confidently say she's one of the best people I've ever trusted to take care of my children. I met her when she worked at another daycare center in 2019. She was so kind and attentive—she genuinely cared for every child she looked after. My kids always came home happy and talking about how much fun they had under her care. She always went above and beyond to make sure each child felt safe, loved,... more

I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend her as a childcare provider. My child was in her class for nearly a year, and I was consistently impressed with her kindness, care, and focus on our son’s development. She created an education and development plan for Arthur, kept us updated on a regular basis on his progress as well as worked with us on how we could help support his development at home. In addition to her nurturing personality, she is... more

I can’t express how grateful I am for the incredible care my son received with this caregiver. As a first-time parent, I was naturally anxious about leaving him at such a young age, but she took such great care of him which made me feel completely at ease. I highly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a safe, caring, and loving place for their little one.

I loved this caregiver for my kids, and over ecstatic that she’ll be opening her own center. The boys and I have missed her comfort and care when in their presence. She was dependable and without a doubt, my kids enjoyed seeing her daily. She not only took good care of them but also paid close attention to their growth and development.That made me feel secure while away at work!

she has been my children caretaker at daycare. both of my children are happy with her and even happier to stay with her everyday. Me and my wife are very safe to leave our boys as long as she is there. we feel that she will handle the boys as her own. The boys learn every day something new and we were happy in their time with her. We always recommend her for what she has and how to handle and teach the little kiddos. I always wish her the best... more
