A little bit about myself...
I am a mom of three wonderful children of my own. I was previously running a home daycare through a licensed agency since 2019 but then decided to branch out on my own and launch the opening of Glowing Stars Home Daycare. Having come from working with an agency, I have the benefit of being throughly educated on all ministry requirements for health and safety, programming, meals, and all other legislation. I have taken these guidelines and incorporated them into my private home daycare. I strive to provide the highest quality of childcare through my home based environment. Children are encouraged to learn through play and are supported in every aspect of their development. I provide two healthy snacks (morning and afternoon) as well as a healthy lunch daily. My backyard is fully fenced with a ton of room for the children to play. There are also local parks within walking distance that we visit on occasion. At times, we also attend local playgroups/libraries/community events. Our daily routine is made up of 1-2 hours of outdoor time, structured indoor activities (such as arts and crafts, hand on experiments, age appropriate programming), circle time, and quiet time/nap. I have a B.A. with Major in Psychology as well as a 2 year college diploma from the Social Service Worker program. I was previously working in the mental health and social services field, with prior experience working with children and youth. I am fully certified in standard first-aid/CPR/AED Level C. I have a police clearance check as well as no record with Brant Family and Children's Services. I am located in the North end of Paris, ON...also known as Ontario's prettiest town. I absolutely love our little town and the sense of community that comes with it. I enjoy meeting new families and building a professional caregiving relationship. Daycare Hours:
Monday through Friday 8:00am to 4:00pm. (Hours of operation are non-negotiable)
**At this time we are accepting full-time enrollment only**

Unfortunately children with severe allergies/ dietary restrictions cannot be accommodated at this time. Please contact me for rates and more information about my home daycare policies, contract, waitlist, and interview procedures. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your family.
