About Me

I am a mother of four children and I have been in the childcare field for 8 years. I live in a quite subdivision in Holly Springs, NC.  My home is nestled amongst many trees and wonderful places to expore and play. I have been a preschool and toddler teacher for many years and I have experience with children of all ages. I have been caring for children in my home for about two years now. I have my NC Early Childhood Credentials, SIDS certification along with many other relevent preschool certifications and trainings.  I currently am seeking children that are 2.5 years and up. 

What I offer:

  • A loving, friendly and safe environment
  • A preschool curriculum geared towards Kindergarten preparation
  • Low ratios (more one-on-one for your child)
  • Because of my low ratios I offer opportunities for your child to explore the environment outside of my home (Museum trips, Story time at the Library, childrens events, etc)
  • We make trips to Childrens Paradise, another small-in home daycare here in Holly Springs.  Childrens Paradise is a preschool with children 2+ years as well.  This is a great opportunity for enhancing the childrens social interactions which is very important. We are both separate providers, but with the same values and goals for the children. We have a fantastic relationship that makes this arrangement so incredibly unique to any other childcare situation.
  •  We also use each other as back-up so in case there is a sick day, emergency, or we have appointments we help each other out! This is a nice arrangement since she develops a relationship with my families, and I develop one with hers.
  • I include a healthy breakfast, lunch and two snacks
  • A daily log of what your child did.
