As an accomplished childcare provider with over 32 years of experience, I'm devoted to providing children with the tools they need to thrive and succeed.
With my professional experience and certifications in First Aid and CPR, I focus on developmentally appropriate activities for children to encourage their excitement for learning.
I am the owner of a nationally accredited licensed Family Childcare Home (IDC & Nursery School) in downtown Bentonville. I would love to chat with you about options for your child’s future school endeavors. I have a masters degree in human development and family studies with an emphasis in child development.
I have been teaching in a childcare environment for 30+ years in Arkansas. I have taught early childhood education courses at NWACC. I have taught in the U of A’s childcare program and I have worked for Arkansas State University doing training and technical assistance for childcare programs. I have worked in center based programs- public school- faith based- private non profits- and the University lab school. I have done assessments for Better Beginnings quality program instrument for the state of Arkansas -Office of Early Childhood. Early childhood education is my life’s work.
IDC & Nursery School is a home daycare that encourages curiosity, creativity, and learning, in a secure and safe space for your little one. For your convenience and safety, we have a driveway for parking. We also have a backyard, a nap room, individual interest and learning centers for art, reading, blocks, science and discovery, manipulatives and fine motor, and dramatic play to promote social skills, collaboration, and spark curiosity. My classroom is designed to be a comfortable atmosphere where students can learn and play.
Located in the city of Bentonville, our childcare is in a quiet and safe family-oriented neighborhood with a park.
