About Me:
Hello Parents! I’m the owner and primary caregiver at Saratoga Cozy Corner. My journey in early childhood education began in 2018 as a daycare assistant and volunteer in programs supporting children and families. Those meaningful experiences inspired me to create a cozy, loving space where kids can grow, learn, and thrive, while giving parents peace of mind.
With over seven years of hands-on experience, a Bachelor’s Degree in English Literature, and up-to-date CPR and First Aid certifications, I am deeply committed to nurturing young children. To me, child care isn’t just a profession, it’s a calling. I work closely with each family to provide consistent, personalized care that supports every child’s unique development in a safe and supportive environment.
Philosophy:
My philosophy is grounded in a deep love for children and a belief that they learn best through play, exploration, and meaningful connection. I provide attentive, play-based care tailored to each child’s individual needs, supporting their social, emotional, and developmental growth.
I also believe that caring for children means building strong relationships with their families. Open communication and collaboration with parents are essential to creating a trustworthy and positive experience. My goal is to provide compassionate, high-quality care while helping every child feel happy, confident, and well-supported.
Daily Activities:
At Saratoga Cozy Corner, each day is thoughtfully planned to encourage your child’s growth, independence, and joy. Our daily routine includes nutritious meals and snacks, structured free play, sensory activities, music and movement, circle time, storytelling, arts and crafts, social play, and a peaceful nap time for rest and recharging.
When weather permits, we visit a nearby playground for outdoor play, offering children opportunities to explore nature and stay active under close supervision. In addition to English, I speak Urdu, Farsi, and Pashto, and upon request, I gently introduce these languages and cultures through songs, stories, and playful daily interactions, thus promoting early multilingual learning and cultural awareness.
Our mission is to create meaningful, lasting experiences that support each child’s development and help them thrive, while giving parents confidence and reassurance in the care their child receives.
