Meaghan's Home Daycare in Hamilton daycare openings, reviews and ratings

Daycare description / philosophy

I provide a play-based learning program in a home-like, encouraging, stimulating and language-rich environment with a daily routine, frequent outings and an emphasis on active and outdoor play and hands on learning. I am a mom of four (three school aged boys and a baby girl) with seven years experience operating my own daycare.

My daycare space is the main level of our bright, safe, smoke-free, kid-friendly home. I have a spacious, shady backyard for plenty of safe, supervised outdoor fun. We are a quick walk away from several neighbourhood playgrounds and parks, and make weekly outings year-round to library programs and local parks, as well as field trips throughout the year.
We are proud to be a part of a weekly intergenerational program partnership with the seniors at Macassa Lodge.
I am proud to offer healthy, fresh, home-made and home-grown food for snacks and meals, and involve children in simple, age-appropriate kitchen activities.

My daycare program is TV-free, we are too busy having fun!

My daily program includes a circle time and calendar, lots of songs and music, plenty of books and stories, free play with rotated and themed toys, and age-appropriate games, art and sensory opportunities. I provide a basic structured schedule which I am able to adapt to best suit the needs, interests and development of the children.

I will provide a very safe, very fun environment for your little one to learn about the world around them and to grow and develop in every way. I aim to be the next best thing to home! Providing warm, attentive, loving, home-like care is my goal.

I have been a working parent searching for child care and I know it can be a challenge to find the care you are searching for. I am completely committed to treating all children in my care with the respect, understanding, compassion, patience, and kindness I would want for my own.
