Jess’ Home Childcare

With the school year quickly approaching, I felt the need to share this handy little reminder I saw posted somewhere!

🤒 WHY SHOULDN’T YOU SEND A SICK CHILD TO SCHOOL / DAYCARE

Because one sick child can quickly mean a sick classroom. 🦠

They need rest, recovery and care— and keeping them home can help protect classmates, teachers and families too. ❤️

This afternoon, my daughter discovered a few milkweed plants along our fence line.

We all ran to see if we could find any caterpillars crawling around on them, sure enough we found TWO! 🐛🐛

We’ll be keeping a close eye on them to hopefully be able to watch them transition into a chrysalis!

From my family to yours 💛

Bouncy castle time! 🏰

One part time spot available starting September 2026! Contact for more details 🙂

We were busy in the kitchen yesterday!
Fresh bread has to be one of the greatest smells! 😍
