About Me:
Hello parents! I’m the proud owner and primary caregiver at Villa Park Playhouse. With over three years of hands-on child care experience and certifications in CPR and First Aid, I prioritize both the safety and emotional well-being of every child in my care. I’m excited to welcome your family and become a trusted partner in your child’s early years!
As a naturally caring person and a parent myself, I understand just how much trust it takes to leave your child in someone else’s hands. That’s why I care for every child as if they were my own, with patience, empathy, and attention to their unique needs. My mission is to give working parents peace of mind and help children feel secure, happy, and ready to learn each day.
Our Mission:
At Villa Park Playhouse, I strive to create a nurturing, clean, and home-like environment where children feel safe, supported, and free to explore. My approach is grounded in love and structure, offering the warmth of a family setting along with the consistency children need to thrive.
As both a mother and caregiver, I bring real-world understanding to my work. I take great pride in maintaining a clean, organized space where children can learn and grow confidently. This is more than a daycare: it’s a place where children are respected, encouraged, and prepared for their next steps in life.
Daily Activities:
Each day begins with a healthy breakfast and transitions into engaging, play-based learning activities designed to promote early communication, social development, and creativity. Our mornings include storytelling, singing, dancing, and interactive games, all customized to meet each child’s individual learning style and developmental stage.
After a nutritious lunch, children rest during quiet nap time, followed by a snack and a mix of structured and free play activities in the afternoon. I incorporate age-appropriate learning materials and routines that help children build important life skills, such as following rules, staying safe, and understanding social boundaries.
For families interested in language exposure, I also speak Farsi and Urdu, and can introduce these languages to your child upon request. As the day wraps up, I make sure each child leaves feeling proud of what they’ve learned and experienced, ready to go home with a smile.
