I LOVED your video! You have an amazing child care program. I can see your knowledge and experience in everything you do with the children activities and routine. I’m a professional child care provider with 35 years of professional experience. I hope new providers be able to watch and learn from this great video.!! Thank you for serving your precious children. I’m sure your clients (parents) and children love and appreciate you for everything you do for them. Congratulations! 🎈 🧒🧒🏻💕
Just wanted to say thank you so much for sharing all that you do! I recently resigned from my first grade teaching position to stay home with my son and am looking to start a home daycare, and you are a great inspiration! 💕
Congratulations on your new adventure! That makes me so happy to hear that my videos are helping. God luck with everything, your making a great decision! 🤗👍❤️
Thank you for sharing! It is so nice to watch land see your area. I did this years ago at Ft Bragg and LOVED it. It set me up for awesome things. Now I'm at home with my grandkids using all the knowledge I gained from fcc at Ft Bragg. Much love and many blessings to you ❤️
Just happened across your channel and our missions and views are identical. Thanks for providing such mentorship without even realizing it. Please keeps these seeds of knowledge coming. Educating others is a gift. Keep giving!! I LOVE YOUR METHODS. I'm a fan of practicality yet effectiveness. ❤️ I would LOVE to work alongside you. You are so organized and consistent.
Omg! I really love the style of your program I'm a certified newborn care specialist and I've worked in daycare as an daycare infant teacher for 11 years 6weeks to 18 months old is my age group. Currently working on my family child care business!
I love your daycare videos! What is the policy on your changing table / diapering in Kansas? Are gloves required? Are you required to have a changing table or can you just use a mat? Would love a video on that in the future! Keep up the great content!
Thank you! ❤️ Great questions! Have you seen my bathroom tour? I only use a mat and gloves are not required. You can see the mat I use in that video. But my policies are from the Army but I imagine that there is no difference with Kansas. I am working on an infant video, I will make sure to add details about diapering specifications. 👍
I just PCS from Fort Riley ks as a CYS worker now I’m in El Paso and trying to become a FCC provider. Thanks for your videos. I was trying to see if I will have enough space for the kids or if the financial side worth it are should I go back to CYS.
@@thecalmingchildcare9550 thank you. I was wondering because my Goal is to have my own facility. My husband ETS in the next 2 years. This would up start my future career.
@@EssentiallyMeka yes! It’s a really good place to start, there is a lot of free training and guidance that would really give the confidence and knowledge to start a center after a couple years. What a great goal!
This is so interesting. I have a 12 month old, 13 month old, 17 month old and 26 month old. I’m a home daycarer in Denmark 🇩🇰 I really struggle with the 12 month old. She’s very delayed in motor skills and screams all the time unless I carry her, it’s exhausting. I almost don’t have time to eat until they are all asleep 😢
I feel your pain. I know that struggle, I’ve had ones like that and it definitely takes the fun out of the job. Hopefully over time she adjusts and gets better. I should put a disclaimer that explains that these videos don’t show the hour by hour struggles we have because they are constant. Maybe one day I will do a video that featured that. Hang on there, keep things simple for now and make sure your getting your self care in. We’ve been back in the US for just over a year and we are still homesick for Europe, it’s nice to connect with someone across the pond ❤️
I am going to try to find the resource for the stencils, it’s something that was donated to me so I can’t say for certain. But I searched high and low for stencils like that so I knew they would draw attention. 😅 I will let you know what I find out! 👍
I think I’ve found the company that the stencils came from. It’s colorations but I can’t find the wooden set. They do have a plastic set that is very similar though and has the same fish as well as the sturdy square shape. I hope this helps. amzn.to/3INY88s
I have been watching your videos, love your ideas and set up. Can you tell me what brand the baby highchair is, and the kids table and chairs are from?
@@leslyschmitt9363 okay, these are products that I am borrowing from my military childcare program. I’ve searched all over the table and can find any mark or label but I will do some research and see what I can find that’s similar. They are nice and heavy and can fold up, I definitely recommend that type of table.

@@thecalmingchildcare9550 Thank you for taking your time and getting back to me. Your videos have encouraged me to be more organized, and more creative with the children. Keep up the good work
I actually did a little tour, I’m about to do another one with the changes I’ve made but here is the link to the ones that I’ve done th-cam.com/play/PL_658QPN7LXGQbd3frjh7geM-atw2JyFq.html
I have a couple of videos where o go over the recipe. Here are the links in case you haven’t seen them th-cam.com/video/8wOHKDSqhS0/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/jiIQgG1-f-I/w-d-xo.html
Thanks so much for replying. Just one more question please .how do you manage to organise the activities ? Do they have them separately since they have different ages?
@@cclaudiarg Great question, I try to keep everything at least toddler safe. The only thing I need to separate is any preschool activity that might pose a choking hazard. So those could be kept on a tray that I can put up and bring to a table when I’m ready to use with the preschool age. And any baby toys that are the mouthing type toys I keep up in a bin so they can stay clean and bring down just a couple at a time. That way they can go to the mouthed toys bucket when the infant is done playing with them and get washed at the end of the day.
I have supplied most of my things but they do make alot of the basic items available. Most providers can start with what they offer at the lending library but it must be returned when you close.

I think it’s better money than working for cys. You definitely give up space though! And being your own boss is so much better!

I love your content!! Do you mine me asking, where you purchased your milk pitcher?
I get them from the military family childcare supply but I actually found a link that has the same ones! amzn.to/3dFVEgS
Thank you, and thank you for the info you share. It’s been extremely helpful!!
I’m looking into becoming a fcc provider for my base, I was wondering if the military provided most of your supplies or did you?
yes
Thank you so much for this video. It helped answer a lot of my questions.
Do you have the kids cleanup before you eat breakfast?
That’s the goal, But I can’t say it always happens 😅.

Hello, I've been looking for an FCC provider youtuber!! Thanks for sharing. Do you mind doing a tour of your space? Thanks 🥰
Nice! That’s a big reason why I started, I watched everything on TH-cam but never found anyone.

It depends what is at your installation’s lending library. You could always ask to see what’s in their shed.
Definitely based off of their lending library!
