Edna Barnston Family Day Care
My mission is to provide a safe, loving, quality childcare experience that helps your child ages 6 months to 4 years old develop physically, socially, and emotionally. We offer a nurturing, fun environment where your child will get the personal attention and care that he/she needs and deserves!
Our main goal is to provide care for your child in a loving, stable home environment. We want your child to feel safe and cared for, in flexible but structured surroundings. Our purpose is to provide you quality childcare with social, emotional, knowledgeable and physical growth. Edna’s Childcare is a developmental program that encourages and helps every child develop. Whether it's reading a book, playing a game, working in a learning center, or playing outdoors, I make early childhood development interesting and fun.
I am a California State Licensed Home Daycare owner for the past 20 years. I have completed many courses of infant-toddler training in Child Development and I am always continuing my education to further my knowledge to help guide children through their developmental milestones. Also, I am certified in CPR and first Aid training. I recognize that each child has unique talents, learning styles and personalities so I am committed to working within each child’s comfort zone to ensure social, emotional and educational results.
At Edna’s Daycare, I have two loving assistants who help me with the children throughout the day. They have completed finger printing and certifications required by the state of California.
At Edna’s Daycare, the curriculum is based on interactive activities that are available to them throughout the day. They will develop a love for learning in Hebrew and English, while they are growing, playing and having fun. We engage in all the usual projects, e.g., painting, counting, ABC in English and Hebrew, singing, dancing, Yoga classes, Jewish holidays, etc. Children will also learn to identify all four seasons. At Edna’s Daycare, your child will participate in developmentally appropriate activities throughout the day, such as: * Free Play * Circle Time * Puzzles and Games * Arts and Crafts * Music * Yoga * Pre-Reading Activities * And much more * We celebrate Birthday Parties.
I am convinced that children at Edna’s Childcare should and will be taught to respect each other, adults, and property. I believe that children deserve to be treated and respected as individuals in an environment that welcomes reason, exploration, question, and imagination. I respect each child’s need for love, security, acceptance, warmth, and stimulation.
