As a ​mother, educator and former nanny, Crystal understands the importance of establishing positive habits in a child's early years. In this spirit, she offers high quality childcare for children ages 0 to 6 which emphasizes musical enjoyment, educational development, creative expression and healthy habits. 

 

Children in her care benefit from her broad knowledge, gentle nature and consistency. Her bag of tricks includes games, toys, recordings, instruments, worksheets, activities, rhymes and stories -- all designed to fascinate infants and toddlers.

 

Crystal emphasizes:

 

-- musical development 

-- pre-literacy 

-- artistic expression

-- cultural and social awareness

-- physical activity

-- healthy eating

 

​She tailors her approach to the needs and insterest of the child, as well as the wishes and instructions of the parents. She is trained in first aid, infant CPR and childhood communication skills and has ten years of experience in caring for young children. 

 

Childcare for one child may be booked during any available time for a flat hourly rate of $20. For each additional child, add $5 to the hourly rate. Four children maximum.

 

Childcare bookings may be made occasionally or on an ongoing basis and there is no commitment required.
