What Makes Me Passionate about Childcare
 Opportunity to shape children's lives for the better.
~Sandy Escobido

Create a safer more just world for all kids.
~ Louise Derman-Sparks

Notable Quotes

"Developmentally appropriate practices are ways of teaching that vary for or adapt to the age and experience of the individual learner. So fundamentally the definition has not changed. Instead, it has been expanded to include the fact that not only do you have to consider children as individuals, but you also have to consider children as members of groups with their own cultural identities."
~ Dr.Susan Bredekamp


By learning what works for whom, we can move beyond simply identifying a particular program’s outcomes to determining what we can do to help that program—and the young children it serves—succeed
~Sam Miesels



The quotes above really relate how I feel about the work that I do.
It is looking at the child as an entire enity and then designing a program around that child's needs that makes our job the most challenging yet very rewarding.

The Kissing Hand

This is one of my favorite children's books.  This book I get to share with a special child almost every week.  Who doesn't want to hold on to their mommy's love forever!

~~Kissing Hand Poem~~

A piece of me I give to you,
This special heart because
"I love you."
The heart is you, the hand is me,
It shows that we are
A Family.

This poem comes from teacher "Sandie in Seattle"


This is my family!  My husband Bryan, My oldest daughter Shelby, My son Rhett, and my baby girl Emalyn.
