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.

August at Judy's Little Gems



I am so excited to be back after a lovely trip through the Rockies, an awesome day at the West Edmonton Mall and then checking out gorgeous Banff and Lake Louise.  Canada has some truly stunning natural scenery!  

Since we had so much fun last month with the theme days, we decided to try some more!! Some of the days were such a hit that a re-do is a must!  (ICE CREAM DAY!  Picnics, Playground trips, Nature Walks, Art in the Park and Water Days)  We will also keep adding to our word wall in both French and English.  We have been having fun incorporating our themes into our letter and number of the day.  I can't wait to try some new outdoor activities!  YoYo painting, Ice Chalk creations and Water Squirter Paintings sound so much fun!!

 This month we will be doing some Walking Trips to various parks, playgrounds and trails.  Running Shoes will be the best foot wear for these outings since the kids will be walking/playing on different surfaces and we need to protect their feet!  Bathing Suits and Towels will be needed for our Water Days. 

Here are this month's Special Summer Days:

Tuesday August 4:  Safari Day/Walk
Wednesday August 5:  Sports Day
Thursday August 6:  Wacky Watermelon Day/Water
Friday August 7:  Snow Day!

Monday August 10:  Friendship Day
Tuesday August 11:  ICE CREAM DAY!/Water
Wednesday August 12:  Super Hero Day/Face Painting

Tuesday August 18:  Carnival Day!
Wednesday August 19:  Minion Day!
Thursday August 20:  Doll Day/Water Play
Friday August 21:  Pet Day/Field Trip to Woofy's

We will be closed Monday August 3 and August 24 to 28 for holidays.  (Judy's Staycation!)  We do live in the best place in the world!!

I can't wait to see everybody on Tuesday.   I wonder if your little ones will notice what is different about our front yard when they arrive?!  I hope you all have a super fun long week end!

Judy.
