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.

January 2014 Newsletter: Happy New Year!

Happy 2014 to all of my daycare families!  I hope you have had a wonderful time with your families over the holidays.  :)  I am so excited to see all my Gems this week. We are so lucky to live in one of the most beautiful places in the world. Looking back at photos we have taken over the years makes me realize that we have so many amazing places to explore with our families year round. I am really looking forward to getting outside with the kids to do some fun activities. This month we will be learning about Winter, Polar Animals, Winter Fairies, Good Deeds and Opposites.  Our Academic learning themes will use our new number line, focusing on counting to 60 by the end of the month.  Letters: M,N,O, P.  Writing Names, numbers 9-12 and drawing symbols: x,+,O,#.  We will learn our middle names, birthdays and color White.
Special Days: Shiny Day, January 15.  Opposites Day, January 24.  

I am so thankful for the opportunity to care for your children. I am so lucky to have a job that I love. This quote by Confucius sums it up!  Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.
See you soon!
Judy.
