Being a parent myself, I know that it is very important for parents to find a person who is responsible, friendly and trustworthy when looking for childcare. I'm sure that you will find all these qualities within me. My goal is to help prepare your child/ren for school.
My husband James and I have been married since 1982. We have two children of our own. Our daughter Kayla is 34 years old In Feb, who is adopted and our previous foster child. She is a special needs child/adult. She is a sweet and loving person. She lives at home with us and will always due to her special needs limitations. We also have a 34-year-old biological son September. Josh graduated WSU majored in Mechanical Engineering and works at an local engineering company and lives on west side of Wichita .
Years ago my husband and I were a family foster care home that was licensed from S.R.S. AKA DCF We have many previous foster children who are now adults that have children of their own now.
I am also a. M.A. “Medical Assistant” for 15 years I did in home private duty care for clients, specializing in care of others affected with Alzheimer’s disease.
So I am very experienced in caring for children of all ages and needs. Please note that I am not a babysitter, but an educator and caregiver of a family daycare.
At first, you and your child may need to adjust to a new environment and routine. Therefore, if I can be of any assistance to you as a working parent, please let me know. I hope that you will be able to look upon me as both a friend and a caregiver for your child. The daycare welcomes any new ideas! Feel free to speak up or even take a peek at us.
