The opportunity to play and learn with other children is something both home daycares and centers offer that nanny
care can't. But unlike centers, which tend to group kids by age, home daycares usually have mixed-age groups, which
more closely mirrors most families and may help your child learn to feel comfortable around older kids. "I like the fact that
there are other children my son can play with and learn from," says Cindy Goral, a BabyCenter user from Palo Alto,
California. "Since he's an only child, he really enjoys this social interaction."
Though daycare centers, no matter how child-friendly and welcoming, can sometimes seem institutional, home daycare
can be the next best thing to your own home. If you're lucky enough to find a good home care provider in your
neighborhood, so much the better — your child will feel even more at home.
"My favorite thing about home childcare is that it's a homey environment, and my children get lots of attention and hugs,"
says Phyllis Hodson-Hutsell, a BabyCenter user from Rossville, Indiana. "Plus, our caregiver is located in the same small
town where we live, so she's close by, and my daughters will get to know neighborhood kids whom she'll likely know all
her life."
Most home daycare providers are moms themselves, so you know you're leaving your child with someone familiar with
the basics of baby and child care and who probably has a healthy dose of the mothering instinct. Of course, you and
your provider may differ on some child rearing issues, but as long as you find someone with whom you share basic care
philosophies, the "mom" factor can be a definite advantage.

Research shows that early childhood is the most critical developmental period in a child's life. I want to help YOUR CHILD to be better prepared for success in school and beyond.
My mission is to create a warm, nurturing, educational daycare environment that stimulates your child’s desire to learn, while giving parents the peace of mind of having their child in a loving, secure and safe environment.
My goal is to provide a happy, fun place for children to feel valued and loved, AND Where they can learn and grow physically, emotionally, intellectually, and socially at their own pace.
Caring for children is my profession, and I take my responsibility to you, and to your child, very seriously. I love teaching and watching little minds grow and learn. I love being a Day Care Child Provider!
