LAURIE'S LIL' TYKE CHILDCARE
ZILLAH, WASHINGTON
Welcome to Laurie's Lil' Tyke Childcare. My name is Laurie I have been in the childcare business in Zillah, Washington (small little town) for 24 years. I am licensed to have 8 children ages 2 - 11, or 6 children birth - 11. I am a licensed in-home childcare provider, CRP and First Aid Certified and clean CORI (police background check).
Every month children ages 2 - 5 experience a new theme based curriculum in which they participate in. It is a Pre-K program that will help preschoolers be prepared for kindergarden. We do preschool Monday through Thursday every week.
I strive to make each day full of learning opportunities for everyone. I encourage each child's individual abilities as well as provide room for them to grow in all areas of learning. Reading is a very big part of every day. We read both provider - chosen books, and children choices. The day is balanced between structure and freedom.














Age inclusive program - infants are a welcome part of everything. They take part in reading (often on my lap), are in the room when we do crafts and preschool, either in a bouncy seat, high chair or jumperoo, and all children benefit from their presence by being exposed to younger children who need care and gentleness. The infants have a great opportunity to learn from older children through immitation and striving to be, "like the big children".
CURRICULUM:
We cover 2 - 3 letters per month
Discuss a new shape
Learn one new color
Learn our numbers
Learn about seasons
Do animal study
Talk about matching
Talk about opposites
Learn about home environment
Talk about safety
.... and more! 

The main goal of this childcare is to have fun, improve social skills, and encourage creative expressions. I will utilize a variety of activities to accomplish this goal.
