Sitter in Pekin, Illinois

I'm an
Individual
I currently have childcare openings for day shift (6am-5:30pm) monday - friday for ages 2 and up. . A little bit about myself: I am a 44 year old married mother of four boys (ages 14, 19, 23, and 25) and a girl (age 25). My home is an exciting, loving, safe, educational, and structured environment for children. We have a playground with climbers and many ride-on toys. Inside we have a play room where we do lots of crafts and educational activities and 5 bedrooms (plenty of space to spread out). I have been providing child care full-time in my home for 21 years now and worked in a daycare center before that. I have also taught Sunday School (I currently teach 14 months-3 year olds), have worked in the mothers day out program at a church, have taught children's church for grade school, and currently provide childcare on Tuesday nights for all ages for the Celebrate Recovery at our church. I provide a nutritious breakfast, lunch, and morning, and afternoon snacks at set times everyday. I also have experience with ADD, ADHD, ODD, childhood depression, mood adjustment disorder, autism spectrum, sensory issues, breathing problems (asthma, RSV), seizures, multiples, Cerebral Palsy, and premature infants. I am also CPR and First Aid certified. I was fingerprinted and background checked in 2001 for my home daycare license another background check in 2014 to work with the children at church and again in February of this year to work with the children at the new church we moved to. I can offer an educational, structured, exciting, Christian environment for your children. There will be a lot of art and craft activities and age appropriate educational time. So if you are looking for a place where your kids will have a blast you can stop looking. My rates are: Full time: $125 a week Part time: $30 a day (never more than $125 a week per child) or $5 per hour The cost for child care covers food, art and educational supplies, prizes for good behavior, etc. I do have a legal contract for both of us to sign agreeing to the terms of care and I claim my income for taxes, so every January you will receive a receipt to use on your taxes. I also have a ton of references available on request. My home is in the CB Smith/Washington school boundaries with the Washington bus stopping 3 houses away. The hours of care are monday-friday 6am-5:30pm and is provided in my north side home. I absolutely cannot provide care before 6am or after 5:30pm due to my own childrens activites. Payment is due on the friday after care is provided. There is a $5 a day late fee for payments made after 6pm on friday. A two week notice is required to be given to terminate childcare. Something to keep in mind....I do not accept child care connection and also we take a one week family vacation every year and I close a few days at Christmas. The vacation will be the week of July 4th. I am also closed New Years day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, and one or two other federal holidays for my kids doctor appointments. Please email or call or text 267-7655... if interested.
