Hello, and Welcome to Lil' Peoples Daycare.
My name is Ms Linda.
We are located in Coeur d Alene, ID.
I am a licensed provider and have been in business since "1995".


More About Me

I am a mother of four children and have numerous hours of training. I care for children ages 18 months to 6 years old. I love teaching the children the basic skills for getting ready for school. I opened Lil Peoples Daycare in "1995" . I provide quality care in a loving home environment. I have over 14 years experience and actively participate in continuing my early childhood education.

About Lil' Peoples Daily Program

All children learn at their own pace. Each day I plan activities for the development of gross motor skills and fine motor skills. These activities will range from formal group activities to independent play and is geared towards each child's ability. Just as important as planned learning is working on life skills .These are very important things for the children to learn…Which include: Sharing, to be caring, friendship, manners, honesty and respect, self-control, good eating habits, good health habits. You will not always see a tangible object, We focus on the "process not product" as we explore the world around us.

Lil' Peoples is a clean and non-smoking environment. We have a large fenced yard and lots of toys for the little ones to use. Please feel free to contact us. I would love to meet you and your little one.

Training and Experience

 

I am CPR and First Aid certified. I have my Child Development Associates degree and am working towards an accreditation with NAFCC (National Association for Family Child Care). My daycare follows the USDA food program and serves healthy snacks and meals. I am also a member of the local Family Child Care Association and also a member of NAEYC (National Association for the Education of Young Children). I want to provide the best possible care that I can, so I have taken many classes and attended many workshops to gain more information and additional knowledge to help the children grow and learn.
