Program

Research shows that children learn best while playing. I believe every child is born with a capacity to learn that is enhanced by the ability to create. There will be many years of formal education ahead of them, and while I feel it’s my job to prepare them for that step, part of that preparation is fostering, creative thinking, imagination, problem-solving, and resiliency. I do this by guiding and teaching developmental age appropriate milestones, academic skills, and by fostering appropriate social behavior, which may be the single most important factor in future school success. With my 20 years of primary teaching background, I am able to personalize each child’s learning based upon their interest and Contact me to learn more about my program and availability.

Teachers

Teaching children has been the enduring love of my life. From babysitting neighbor kids beginning at age 9, opening my home to become a preschool when my third child was born, receiving my multiple subject, teaching credential at San Diego State in 1991, and volunteering throughout my children’s lives; I am child-centered, and it is my gift . During my teaching career, I mostly taught kindergarten and first grade. From 2012-2022, I worked at a Spanish Immersion school in the north suburbs where I taught social emotional skills to kindergartners. This was a job that I am very proud of and loved very much until it was discontinued. I was able to create a curriculum that focused on English language skills, music, art, physical education, and focus on social skills. My students appropriately used and understood concepts of good sportsmanship, empathy, perseverance, growth, mindset, and responsibility. I use the same concepts in my childcare. I love to read books to children and learn through them. We also use conscious discipline in my childcare.

Reviews

In a world of seriously iffy daycare options, SEEC is a hidden gem. My husband and I have been with Lisa for over a year and have both a toddler and infant in her care. I'm a pretty nervous mama, but I have never had any concerns leaving my boys there. The play environment is ext...Read moreensive, homey and has great outdoor space. The curriculum is engaging, varied and has a big focus on social/emotional skills and early cognitive development. Lisa is very flexible and accommodating with our kids' individual needs, including helping our toddler with adaptive skills that were lagging and working with an AFO my infant had to wear when he first started. Lisa treats my boys as if they were her own and they love her so much--far from being upset about being dropped off, if we keep them home my 2 year old is whining "go to Lisa" by lunch. Lisa also deliberately fosters a very supportive and inclusive culture among the parents, which was a welcome change for us after coming from one of the big daycare centers. We're so grateful we found SEEC and very highly recommend it.

Lisa’s daycare, SEEC, truly lives up to its name. Lisa is more than just a daycare provider – she’s an overqualified educator with a deep commitment to social-emotional learning. She’s kind, loving, and firm, teaching kids the importance of respect, empathy, and kindness....Read more Both my son and daughter's speech and vocabulary have flourished under her care, and we’ve seen remarkable growth in their overall development. Our kids not only love but also respect Lisa so much. She offers personalized care, is straightforward, honest, and the sweetest person you could hope to partner with in raising your child. If you're passionate about education and parenting, you won’t be disappointed with Lisa. We feel so blessed to have found her and to give our kids such an incredible head start in their learning journey.

Location

My husband and I live in Southeast Eagan. We have been in our home for 20 years. It is near the border of Inver Grove Heights and Rosemount. We raised our amazing three adult boys here. There is a wonderful elementary school three houses away from our home. Our neighborhood is very safe, established and walkable. The childcare is exclusively located in the basement of our home which walks out to a very large fenced in backyard. There is an edible garden, swing sets, sandbox and mud kitchen. The children also play on the driveway when we use ride on toys and bikes. We play outside morning and afternoons. (Weather permitting)
