Hi I am 59 years old, have 3 grown children, one who lives at home but works in the city all week. I also have 2 grandchildren.
I have been a caring for children under the Council for 23 years, based at the same property in Dee Why.
I really enjoy caring for and interacting with children and over the years I have learnt more than I could ever imagine from them. My backyard has provided many children in the district with an opportunity to express themselves and grow into healthy little individuals. My aim is to build strong self identities. I value each child's individuality and love to guide them with their learning and behavioural issues.
The 'red table' provides the children with an opportunity to relax, be patient, connect, express, practice skills that will be necessary for school. This takes on many different forms eg. listening, waiting, co-operating, communicating, hygiene practice etc. practice every day they are achieveable.
Respect, Responsibility and Resilience are key aims of mine for the children. This modern world is fast, not as well disciplined and tough on children and adults.
My service is open Monday to Thursday 8-5.
My fees are $15 per hour from 1/1/24 for all age groups, plus the Council Levy of $2.05. I provide almost all supplies.
Please contact me on 0437 666220. I also have a facebook page Jenny Lloyd Family Day Care which you are free to observe :)
Cheers Jenny/Jen Jen/Aunty Jen/Nan :)))
