Her licensed family dayhome is thoughtfully designed with dedicated indoor play and learning spaces, along with direct access to a large, fully fenced backyard. This inviting setup allows children to explore, discover, and enjoy safe outdoor play year-round.

Conveniently located in the heart of Cranston, just off Cranfield Park SE, families appreciate the ease of curbside pickup and drop-off. With nearby parks, schools, and community amenities, this neighborhood is an especially family-friendly choice.

Children also enjoy imaginative games such as building, puzzles, and role-play, which nurture creativity, problem-solving, and social development.

Enrichment opportunities such as the Puppy Program and Music Time with our in-house music teacher help children build empathy, rhythm, creativity, and social confidence in fun, hands-on ways.

I started my dayhome because I’m passionate about early childhood education and wanted to create a space where children feel safe, supported, and free to explore who they are. With over six years of experience and an Alberta Level 3 ECE certification, I’ve had the opportunity to work in a variety of settings—including an art museum’s children’s department in Korea—and I bring that creativity and care into everything I do.

My dayhome blends a cozy, home-like atmosphere with meaningful learning experiences inspired by Reggio Emilia, Montessori, and Alberta’s FLIGHT framework. I believe young children thrive when they feel seen and heard, and I tailor activities to support their social, emotional, and communication development—while having lots of fun along the way!

What I love most about this work is watching children grow into themselves. It’s incredibly rewarding to see their confidence build as they learn to express their feelings, make new friends, and try new things. I use gentle guidance, redirection, and clear communication to help them build emotional awareness and develop social skills.

Learning in my home is full of wonder—through art, sensory play, and hands-on exploration, I aim to make everyday moments magical. I truly believe the early years lay the foundation for a child’s entire life, and I’m honored to be a part of that journey with your family.

One quote I love says it perfectly:
“The first five years have so much to do with how the next 80 turn out.” — Bill Gates Sr.
