About
I believe that quality early care and education is a partnership between parents and providers. At Joan's family daycare, it is my mission and my responsibility to partner with the parents/guardians, and to provide infants and toddlers with age and developmentally appropriate activities and materials in a safe and loving environment where they are free to learn and grow.
Joan's Family Daycare is based on learning and playing program. I believe that at this developing stage, the first three years of a child's life are the most important years of their life. I wish to give your child the opportunity to explore and grow, create and discover, build relationships with his or her peers and become a confident leader.
I love children, they bring joy in my life that is matched with no other. I have done this sort of work in one way or another all my life. I am experienced and hope to keep learning. I want to see the children flourish into little beings.
History
Established in 1990.
My daycare business began in San Jose, California. A few years later we migrated up north to Belmont, California. And three years ago, after purchasing my first home, we now reside in Redwood City, California.
