Gnomik Daycare
Watch Me Grow Family Child Care has openings for preschool-aged children (2-5 years) at this time. Focus on nature and outdoor learning, spending time outside in all types of weather. We explore the environment in the yard: feeding, watering, and watching backyard chickens; building castles in the sandbox; climbing and swinging; planting and growing various vegetables, berries, and flowers in the garden; finding frogs and toads in the summer; and discovering animal tracks in the winter snow. We walk to the neighborhood park and have field trips to other indoor and outdoor learning areas around Eagan, such as the public library and various playgrounds. Weekly music program with a certified music therapist. I serve plant-based meals and snacks. Located in Eagan, easy access to 35E and 77, school district 191. Hours: Monday-Thursday 7:00AM-4:30PM. I'd love to hear from you!

I am Annie Hanson, and I have my own two young children at home. I have been a licensed child care provider for over 4 years, and I enjoy bringing children and their families into our home. As I learn more about nature’s benefits for all ages, I have incorporated more outdoor play and activities into our schedule. Following safety guidelines, we go outside in all weather to climb, swing, run, slide, explore, care for animals, and more. When we are indoors, there is a climbing gym and toddler tunnel climber for large muscle movement, as well as art activities, building materials, and dramatic costumes and props for creative artistic play.
