I have cared for children for over 10 years but professionally I have been caring for children for the past 4 years. I am a non-smoking home, I have a high-fenced backyard for privacy, I have all ages in my home from infants 10 wks to 10 yrs old. I accept Mountain Heart clients and Private Pay. I do give discounts for friend or family referral*.
For the children I care for after 5 pm I try to keep a schedule but I don't want children "working" all day so I do have them do their homework then we watch a movie or I let the children choose what they want to do.
* If I have both children in care (the referred child/parent and the child/parent that made the referral), the parents will get the discount.
