Welcome to Nanny Judy's

Welcome to Nanny Judy's. A Place to Communicate with the Families in my Care.

I believe quality childcare makes a difference in the lives of children and their families. I hope to be a good support for working parents. Working in partnership with parents ensures that the needs of the family are met and promotes a sound foundation for children.

There are so many benefits to children being cared for at home. Home is warm and secure; the ideal setting for children to learn and grow. I strive to provide a nurturing and encouraging environment, with age appropriate activities and opportunities to explore. Each child will be cared for according to their individual needs. I believe children who are loved and cared for will in turn learn to love and care for others.

About Me

My photo
I am a Licensed Early Childhood Educator and Professional Ballet Teacher. Over the past 20 years I have taught preschool,daycare, managed my own LNR Family Daycare, and worked in private homes as a Nanny. My newest adventure is opening a Licensed In-Home Multi-Age Childcare. I have now opened Judy's Little Gems. Having a Licensed Childcare Facility in my home is so rewarding. Each day is brand new and exciting for both myself and the children! The word Nanny is very special to me. My British grandmother asked her grandchildren to call her Nanny. I hope to build great memories and relationships with children and families in my role as Nanny; just as my grandmother did.

New Discoveries

What an amazing world we live in!  Looking at it through the eyes of a child reveals some truly awesome new discoveries and a deep appreciation for what we, as adults sometimes take for granted.  Snow to a child is pure joy!  It is exciting and exhilarating!  As a teacher of young children, I see snow as a wonderful learning opportunity.  Snow is physical education, science, art, language arts, mathematics, social studies, health and personal planning all wrapped up into one incredible experience.  It is so much fun to watch young children explore and learn about their world. 
As the seasons change, I grow more excited about finding a family who needs my care!

New Beginnings

First time experiences are one of the joys of being a caregiver.  I feel so fortunate each and every time that I am witness to a child's growth and progress.  I am experiencing many "firsts" myself this year and it really is exciting!  I can't wait to get started with my new career as a Nanny.  Having the opportunity to be special in the lives of children and their families is so rewarding.
