As a mother of two children, I have honed my childcare skills over more than 5 years, equipping me with the ability to create a safe and engaging environment conductive to children’s learning and wellbeing. Children are a delight, and I find it rewarding to collaborate with them. The sight of their happy smiles brings me peace and contentment. I possess a bachelor’s degree in finance from Rowan University, located in Glassboro, New Jersey. Following a 13-year tenure in the banking industry, I have resolved to transition into a career as a daycare provider. My hobbies include spending time with my kids in nature, playing music and dancing.

If parents/guardians are traveling long days for work, I offer early and late pick-up for a fee. The extended time will be from 7:00am-8:00am & 5:00pm-5:30pm. The hours are only recommended for parents working long hours and traveling long days. A 10 hour long day can be exhausting for children. It is important that children get to spend time with their families and be in the comfort of their home as often as possible. This will not be offered to everyone.
Late pick-up policy- It is expected that parents arrive no later than 5:00pm as I have a personal schedule outside of Childcare. Parents will be charged $1 per minute after the pickup time. For example, if you arrive at 5:30pm you will be charged $30. Lateness will be documented and not acceptable should it be on a regular basis. *This does not pertain to parents/guardians paying a fee for the extended hours.
The daycare will be closed on holidays and if any other closures are expected, for instance on non-statutory holiday days, notice will go out to parents at least 2 weeks in advance.

*Spaces will not be held by verbal contract; a deposit must be paid in order to hold a spot for you and your child.
*I do require that the parent/guardian and child visit my daycare prior to enrollment. This process allows your child(ren) to become more familiar with our daycare and staff.
Our Weekly childcare rate is $275 per child. Payment Procedures: Forms of payment include Zelle or cash. Payment for services must be made at the time of drop -off for the current day. We do not accept payments in advance or after the fact. Late fees will be assessed at $25 per day, and care will be suspended if payments or fees are not made within two days. We do not offer family discounts for multiple children. Fees may be increased with a minimum of two weeks’ notice. DES: Parents/guardians that use government subsidies to help pay for fees are responsible for renewing their authorization before it expires. If parents/guardians do not renew their subsidy claim before their previous claim expires the parents/guardians will be responsible for full fees until I receive authorization to bill the government and have received payment. If/when I receive back payment from the ministry (for fees already paid for by the parents), I will reimburse the parents/guardians the subsidy amount.
