Welcome to Christine's Cuties Family Daycare!

Thank-you for your interest in Christine's Cuties Family Daycare! Choosing the right person to take care of your son or daughter is a huge decision. The following is some basic information about Christine's Cuties to help assist in your decision about where to send your child.

Here is a little background information about myself. I have been working professionally with children and families for the past nine years. I have facilitated parent support and educational groups, worked as a case manager in a daycare center, assisted with the implementation of a strength-based family curriculum in early childhood programs, worked as a respite care provider for a child with Autism, provided family support to individuals and families with disabilities, been a Parent Aide to parents with intellectual disabilities, and facilitated preschool groups for siblings of children with special needs.

The philosophy at Christine's Cuties is to provide a safe and happy environment for children to explore, learn, and grow. Communication between parents and myself is extremely important. Christine's Cuties is licensed by the Department of Early Education and Care (EEC), and follows the strict licensing standards to ensure the health, safety, and education for all children attending.

Christine's Cuties follows a daily routine that is flexible and responds to the needs and interests of all children in care. Children will participate in provider-directed and child-directed activities, both indoors and outdoors. Christine's Cuties follows a curriculum that teaches children letters, numbers, colors, shapes, animals, and words. It will be adapted for the developmental needs of the children in care. Children will learn social skills such as sharing, self-help skills to increase independence, problem-solving and decision making skills, and leadership skills. Children will also learn about health, nutrition, and safety.

The full time rate is $225 per week and the part time rate is $55 per day. A sibling discount is available. Christine's Cuties is open 7:30am- 5:30pm Monday through Friday. Breakfast, lunch, and snack are provided for children at no additional cost to families.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions or to set up a tour of the daycare. I wish you the best in your search for the right childcare for your son or daughter!

Sincerely,

Christine Lubawski
