I help children learn through creativity and play. In a fun loving atmosphere I strive to see children develop through imagination.
I'm dedicated to creating a safe, respectful place for everyone and encourage every child to follow their interests.
Hello everyone! My name is Leona and I have a private dayhome in the N.W. community of Hawkwood. I offer a safe, loving, healthy, educational, and fun environment for your children to learn, grow, and play! I have enjoyed running my dayhome successfully for 14 years now. I have my Early Childhood Education diploma from Mount Royal as well as my Bachelor of Education Degree from the University of Calgary. Before going to college and university I worked for 4 years at the Churchill Park Child Development Centres kindergarden as a kindergarden teacher's assistant. Following University I was an elementary school teacher for 8 years before stopping to raise my two wonderful children: my son now 19 and my daughter now 17.
I enjoy planning my daily/weekly activities according to your child's individual development, interests, and needs. Each day we enjoy many fun, stimulating activities and centres. We have a daily circle time where we learn about seasons, weather, shapes, colors, and letters. We also have a daily story time. Another frequent favorite activity is our music/singing time. I play the piano while we all sing and dance to many popular nursery rhymes and childrens songs. Other daily/weekly activities include making crafts, baking, and visits to neighborhood playgrounds and the library. All children leave my care with some pre-school skills such as letter/number recognition, printing their name, and many more.
I am only a 5 minute walk from both Hawkwood and St. Maria Goretti schools. My goal is to work as a team with parents and provide a safe, nurturing home away from home for your child.
I provide a nutritious lunch and 2 healthy snacks each day
Excellent references from both past and present clients available upon request.
Please call 403-606-1084 with any questions or to make an appointment to meet with me. Thank-you and have a wonderful day!
