Our Daycare Philosophy At Deidre's Daycare we strive to provide children with a well-balanced environment that allows them to be loved, educated, and understood. We offer a daily routine that both gets them used to a schedule and allows enough free time so that they are not overwhelmed. Coming into our home means that each child is a part of the family. We consider ourselves able to provide that family feeling because the daycare is run together by a mother and father who want nothing more than for each child to feel welcome, safe, and loved. Education is very important to us so throughout the day the children will constantly be learning whether it is during structured activities or during free time. We make sure to incorporate plenty of interactive teaching methods such as flashcards, writing practice, animal and alphabet bingo, and much more. We cover the weather, the calendar, the seasons, and we even have a map of the world with removable pieces for some basic geography education. During the spring and summer the kids help out in the garden which is an excellent way of introducing horticulture to them. We are also large advocates of safety and healthy living so we make sure to cover dangers such as fires, strangers, and bad weather. We practice fire and tornado drills and relay the importance of sticking together and staying safe during both practice and if an event were to ever occur. We are participants in the food and nutrition program so rest assured your child will be receiving the proper portions of the foods they need in order to grow and develop. Although everything mentioned above is highly important, we do also love to have fun and we feel that children need a proper balance of structure and education, as well as fun. Freedom to be who we are is an important thing in life and we encourage the children to be themselves as much as possible. We make sure to give the children time to dance and sing during music time and of course to play outside when the weather permits. Either way we have managed to make sure that even when it is time to let loose and have fun that education and safety are involved. How a person is molded through their childhood is of the utmost importance and here at Deidre's Daycare we want everyone to grow to have great qualities and values instilled in them such as honesty, love, compassion, confidence, healthy living, teamwork, knowing the importance of education, and much more. We simply love to be a part of the children's lives and reassure parents that their children are in caring and loving hands. At Deidre's Daycare both you and your children will be treated as part of the family.
