TODDLER HAVEN
Family Child Care and Home Preschool

Show and Tell ~ With Pictures

This page was developed to provide a quick description and visual tour of my day home.  

Not being a fan of placing children's photos online, I did manage to find a few pictures to provide an  introduction of our setup.  After your Virtual tour, please scroll down the page for a further description of our day home and preschool centers.....
                                                 

    

I would appreciate feedback if you have difficulty viewing this form of "slideshow", please inform me at webdesign@toddlerhaven.ca so that I can evaluate the majority and change the program back to a more traditional slideshow....

                                                                                                 

Home ~ Pet Environment

Our home is both peanut and pet friendly.   We presently have a young Chocolate Lab "Tucker" and two young indoor cats "Newt" and "Fatneck"

 If you have any questions or concerns about our family/day home pets, please feel free to ask.

Playroom ~ Preschool

Our sunny preschool area is a dedicated setup with 3 rooms joined by a main hallway. I took a lot of time with the design and layout for these special areas, choosing a bright and inviting environment.  One half of our classroom is setup with centers where you will find our Preschool Area ~ Circle Time ~ Arts/Crafts ~ Math Center ~ Science Center ~ Puzzles/Games, etc...

In the other half you will find our Play Center Area ~ Music and Movement ~ Lego and Block Center ~ Transportation  Center ~ Puppet Theater ~ Dramatic Play Area, which can be changed to follow themes like Doctor Office ~ Grocery Store, etc ~ Free Play ... the list goes on.  Toys are rotated on a regular basis in order to keep interest and curiosity alive.   

We have a separate Reading Library/Media room  were we enjoy story time, watch special programs/videos, and after school children can relax or start homework. The preschool has its own 2 pce WashroomPlease note, all reachable plants are imitation.   

Outdoor Area

We are located in  a designated "playground zone", less than 2 blocks from the neighborhood elementary school.  We enjoy a large private fenced yard that includes; separate dog run ~ both a poured patio and large grass space, plus we enjoy the benefit of bordering beside "North Haven Park" equipped with new playground equipment, and a wonderful big open area for picnics, tag, sport activities or just running around During warmer weather we have our playhouse, basketball net, tug boat sandbox/pool, and other backyard toys that can be taken out of storage.

A Note on Housework

I offer a clean, although sometimes toy cluttered home.  As my main concern is for the little people in my care, you can expect to witness the following at pickup time; art work not yet completed, odd toys scattered about, crumbs on the floor, lunch dishes not yet washed, etc. 

I will attend to matters of house cleaning during non-business hours, or if all the children are sleeping, during nap/rest period.
