Indoor Areas: The daycare area in the house is a separate room's on the lower level of the home, which is a split-level layout.
My daycare is set up in an exclusive area of my basement, not shared by my living space.
When entering the daycare we have shoe cubbys to remove shoes and also a coat rack. Here is communication wall when entering daycare this is where you sign your child in and out , also where newsletter and any notices are posted. Also we have cubby drawers where I send home kiddos preschool work/ crafts home each day.
We also have home security system in our home. Has alarms on all outside access doors .
The play area is well organized with many shelf's of educational toys.
We have tons educational videos , puzzles and activities that the children are quite familiar with. They are encouraged to play with any appropriate items, but also taught to return toys to their proper places when they are done with them.
The daycare room there is a kItchen are so Dayna can prepare snacks and lunch for the children while staying nearby. All of the real food preparation items are on a high shelf well out of the reach of inquisitive little hands.

Outdoor Areas
We like to spend some time outdoors as often as weather permits, each day that the children are here. The backyard is set up for the children with a boxed play area with mulch areas.
The entire play area is covered in mulch providing a soft and safe surface for the occasional misstep on the climbing toys. Toddler area has foam mats.
There is a few playhouses . For climbing around there is two multistage stair ,slide systems where the children can climb through holes into different chambers and slide down and out. Here is the crawl through Caterpillar we received for the CACFP Healthy Choices WOW Grant .
At mealtime, if the weather is nice, there is also an outdoor child-sized picnic table & adult size in this area as well for outside picnics.
