About Me:
Hello Parents! I’m the proud owner and lead caregiver at Dawson Farm Children's Corner. With over 11 years of hands-on experience, I’m passionate about creating a loving, stimulating environment where children feel safe and supported. I’m also a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), with experience working with children on the Autism Spectrum (ASD).
I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Mathematics and am certified in CPR, First Aid, and MAT. In addition to English, I speak Farsi, Urdu, Dari, and Persian. If you’d like your child exposed to another language and culture, I’m happy to incorporate it upon request.
As both an educator and a mother, I dreamed of building a space where children could feel at home while exploring the world around them. That’s how Dawson Farm Children's Corner came to life! Watching children grow, build friendships, and reach new milestones is the most rewarding part of my work. I’m honored to share those moments with every family I serve.
Philosophy:
At Dawson Farm Children's Corner, we believe that every child thrives in a warm, nurturing setting that values who they are and encourages who they’re becoming. Our home daycare blends the comfort of a family environment with a thoughtfully planned, age-appropriate curriculum.
What makes our program unique is our commitment to personalized care. With small group sizes, we can tailor learning experiences to each child’s interests, strengths, and developmental needs. We focus on whole-child development, supporting intellectual, social, emotional, and physical growth.
We’re more than just caregivers, we’re early childhood educators who love inspiring curiosity, building confidence, and nurturing a lifelong love of learning!
