In-Home Child care just over the river

Hello.  I am providing care just across the river in Vancouver.  I run an in-home child care with a very small group of children.

  Kitchenset

 “The e nvironment must be rich in motives which lend interest to activity and invite the child to conduct his own experiences.” -Maria Montessori

Children benefit from being able to explore the environment around them inside and outside.  This includes having materials available for them to learn about, touch, explore and for it to be safe to do so.  I believe in making materials for the children to use from ordinary items at home.  This can include anything you might find in the recycle bin: bottle caps, boxes, paper, toilet paper rolls, jars etc.  While outside children should be free to learn about plants/trees, watch animals and insects and run free. This can be done by taking nature walks, exploring the backyard or simply bringing in items from nature to use for projects or simply to observe.  We also do bike riding, digging in the sand box and drawing with chalk.

Frontroomdaycare1There are many reasons why parents might need to find a provider to care for their children.  I provide a safe environment in my home with a loving and nurturing caregiver who is very patient and understanding.  I believe in respecting the child as a whole and this will include how I talk and interact with them.  For example letting children learn to feed themselves, pouring milk or juice, answering questions the child might have or just simply giving the child encouragement when trying to accomplish a goal. 


I also offer respite care and was a former respite care worker with the State of Washington for families that have children with special needs.  I have experience working with children with: Autism, Down's Syndrome, ADHD/ADD, blind, deaf, non-walking/cerebral palsy, Sensory Integration, drug addiction and children that need more social interaction in general.  I also have training in several different philosophies including: Montessori, RIE and Reggio.  I try and incorporate the children's art work into our environment along with pictures of the children in play.
Outsidebikeskitchenset


I also bring with me:
*Former Preschool Teacher
*Current CPR & First Aid Certification
*Montessori Training

 

Please contact me for more information and if you want to schedule a meeting!

Educational, Interactive Childcare!

December 01, 2011

Experienced childcare provider looking for a position. Would prefer full-time but willing to consider part-time positions or on-call as well. I have multiple years of experience (total of 10 years childcare experience) working with children ages 0-8. Great families for you to contact that can attest to my ability to be on-time and engaging with children of any age.

I am familiar with RIE, Reggio, well-versed in Montessori learning style as well as a bit of knowledge in attachment parenting. Comfortable with cloth diapers (assisting with diaper laundry and children's laundry as well) and feeding expressed milk as well.

I'm cpr/first aid certified, have taken the RRCAN class, am in the process of completing my food handlers certification, and am enrolled in Oregon Criminal History Registry # (for working in a childcare center). Previously background checked through DHS for 3 years, open to having background check run as well as having two through reputable childcare sites (sittercity.com and care.com). Non-smoker, valid license/insurance and reliable vehicle for transportation (5 seat car, 2 car seats or boosters and room for one older child. I may possibly be able to squeeze 2 car seats and 1 booster in back, depending on width!)

Engaging and active; I do multiple activities with children from sensory play (shaving cream, paint, play dough, etc.) to arts and crafts with older children. Familiar with assisting in school-aged learning, assisting with writing/reading, spelling, abc's, 123's, colors, shapes, etc. Primary focus working with children ages 0-6.

I can and will take your children on outings if you would like, am able to assist with errand running/shopping if necessary as well as light household chores (dishes unloaded or loaded, light sweeping, child laundry/room cleanup, etc.). I love going to the park even if it's wet, and love to puddle jump! For outings I do ask you provide the payment for admission fees, etc. 

Available Mon-Fri any time. I do offer weekend sitting but usually reserve it for date-night occasional sitting for families.


If you're interested, please feel free to email me with all pertinent information such as: your care needs (frequency, total hours, daily schedule if varied), a bit about your family/children (names/ages/a bit about them) and what you are expecting to pay.

My hourly rate for locations within 15 miles of my home is $11.50 per hour, for 2 children. Locations further from my home or with additional children are subject to increased fees, etc. I base my price on your needs, family size, as well as location and am slightly flexible with families that can provide me with stability as I can for them. :)

For inquiry/interest please email educatoralicia@gmail.com or call (971)-217-8414. If I do not answer please leave a message; I have a very active 6 year-old with high-functioning Autism and he can be quite demanding of my time. :)

Thanks!

ChildRoots Annex Schools - helping to support independent, confident children!

November 22, 2011

ChildRoots is currently enrolling at our recently-opened Annex locations!

 The Burnside Annex is located right across the street from our main site in SE Portland, currently enrolling children six weeks to six months of age.

 The Alberta Annex is located in the heart of the Alberta Arts neighborhood, currently enrolling children seven to twelve months of age.

 

A little bit about us:

  • We promote independent, confident young learners. We encourage children to put on their own shoes & clothes, we use actual plates & cups (no sippy-cups) at meal times, and we always, always involve everyone when it comes to cleaning up and caring for our materials.

IMG_0028IMG_0016

  • ChildRoots is an Art–and–Science–based learning community dedicated to providing superior child care for children six weeks to six years. 
  • Our ChildRoots Annex locations specialize in providing care to children ages six weeks to three years of age in intimate in-home settings complete with chicken, rabbits and lovely gardens.
  • Our awe-inspiring classrooms are designed to provoke wonder, encourage inquiry, and allow for movement.  All classrooms are child–focused: everything visible to children is available for their use.  Classroom materials are continually adapted to suit their developmental needs and interests.
  • Nutrition is important at ChildRoots.  We provide amazing and inspiring organic vegetarian meals.  Please feel free to read about us:   The Oregonian's Food Day.

  • Children go outside and play each day- we use our large outdoor spaces, take walks and visit parks.  Children need time outdoors to run, yell and be exuberant (or just stare at the trees or birds flying by).
  • Our teachers are trained to provide a consistent care, with particular interest focused on language acquisition, social and emotional development, and fostering curiosity, wonder, and self-esteem.

We'd love to welcome you to our family! For more information about our schools, or to schedule a tour, please visit our website www.childroots.com, or call (503) 235-1151

Lotus Heart Preschool

September 28, 2011

Lotus Heart Preschool is a play based, Waldorf and Reggio Emilia inspired program.  We provide natural materials in a rich, nurturing environment.  Children have opportunities to work with a multitude of art materials, compose and act out stories, learn basic Spanish and Sign Language, explore light, shadow, and shape at the light table, have imaginative and dramatic play time, work in the garden, bake, and play at the park.  We sing, rhyme, share, do creative movement/yoga, and play cooperative games at our daily circle time.  We provide a daily tea time with organic snacks, children bring a lunch from home.  Our teacher, Brynn Anderson, has 16 years teaching experience in a variety of preschool settings. 

Our program runs from 9-1 Monday-Friday for preschool age children 3 -5 years old. We have 2 spots left for this year, and we are currently reserving spaces for the 2012-2013 school year.  Families may choose the days of attendance and tuition is based on days/week.  Please call or email to learn more or to set up a time to visit.  We look forward to hearing from you!

Morning Childcare Available!

Experienced childcare provider looking for a part-time morning position. I have multiple years of experience (total of 10 years childcare experience) working with children ages 0-8. Great families for you to contact that can attest to my ability to be on-time and engaging with children of any age.

I am familiar with RIE, Reggio, well-versed in Montessori learning style as well as a bit of knowledge in attachment parenting. 

I'm cpr/first aid certified, have taken the RRCAN class, am in the process of completing my food handlers certification, and am enrolled in Oregon Criminal History Registry # (for working in a childcare center). Previously background checked through DHS for 3 years, open to having background check run. Non-smoker, valid license/insurance and reliable vehicle for transportation (5 seat car, 2 car seats or boosters and room for one older child. I may possibly be able to squeeze 2 car seats and 1 booster in back, depending on width!)

Engaging and active; I do multiple activities with children from sensory play (shaving cream, paint, play dough, etc.) to arts and crafts with older children. Familiar with assisting in school-aged learning, assisting with writing/reading, spelling, abc's, 123's, colors, shapes, etc. Primary focus working with children ages 0-6.

I can and will take your children on outings if you would like, am able to assist with errand running/shopping if necessary as well as light household chores (dishes unloaded or loaded, light sweeping, child laundry/room cleanup, etc.). I love going to the park even if it's wet, and love to puddle jump!

Available Mon-Fri from any time in the am to 2pm. 


If you're interested, please feel free to email me with all pertinent information such as: your care needs (frequency, total hours, daily schedule if varied), a bit about your family/children and what you are expecting to pay.

My hourly rate for locations within 15 miles of my home is $10.50 per hour, for 1-2 children. I am looking for families that are looking for a regular sitter and have at least a need for 10 hours weekly. Unfortunately a schedule that isn't consistent week-to-week is simply not reliable enough for me to survive.

For inquiry/interest please email educatoralicia@gmail.com and I will respond promptly.

Thanks!
