Jana’s Daycare Philosophy
Jana’s daycare / preschool, is dedicated to providing a loving and safe environment for each child to develop and grow through play – emotionally, socially and physically.
Child care activities are planned to promote growth in all phases of your childs development. This builds positive sense of self and confidence.
Children are encouraged to interact with peers in a small group setting. Our goal is to help children develop a positive self image and to feel good about themselves as individuals. My day care accepts children from infant to 5-6 years (kindergarten age).
At Jana’s Day Care and Preschool we are committed to giving your child the best in home child care possible. Jana’s Daycare has a rather unique set up that provides a nurturing environment for your child.
Located in Morgan Hill on 3 acres of property where we live, run the day care, and have a large garden and raise sheep and chickens. The children learn about how food is grown through gardening activities worked into our curriculum. The harvest of fruit and vegetables, and eggs from the chickens are used to feed the children. That’s really farm to table, and in this case the farm is just outside the window
