Butterfly Day Care Wonderschool

Nuestros profesores

I have spent my life educating and teaching children from preschool-middle school. I have a multi-subject credential and worked in the public school systems for 10 years. When my son was born I was looking for a way to use my skills in the classroom, with my love for children of all ages, and be home for my own children; thus, Kuyper Kids Daycare was born.

Our classroom and curriculum are based on high academic standards to prepare our kids for kindergarten success and provide a foundation for loving learning and enjoying school.

Testimonios

“I have two kids going to Buttercup daycare (3years old and 8 month baby boy), it’s always hard to leave your children with someone else but Becky has made the transition go smooth for me. Becky is nice, caring, and acts in good faith, with that being said I can’t leave out Leslie and Aneece. Becky has assistants that help out and are excellent with the children, they seem to have a natural ability in caring for children and the children are certainly comfortable. They feed my children, play games, teaches alphabets and numbers. My daughter (3 yrs old) returns happy from the daycare, sometime she doesn’t want to leave.” - Ana J.

“My kids and I love Buttercup Day Care! Rebecca provides a caring, nurturing, fun and educational environment for my boys. She’s been watching my 2 boys since they were 2 and 4, and she’s attentive and loving and always provides a lot of fun activities and structured education, as well as fostering socialization. My kids have made wonderful friends with the other kids in her care, which I’m so happy to see. She is an experienced, credentialed elementary teacher, and she puts a tremendous effort into ensuring the kids enjoy their time there, while also providing solid teaching and education to prepare them for school and help ensure they thrive and succeed in school. Now that my boys are in school, she also helps them with their homework and encourages them to spend time reading. I know my kids are doing so well in school in part because she’s provided such excellent care and pre-school education. Rebecca truly cares for the children she watches and I know my boys are in excellent hands. I’m so glad that my kids are at Buttercup Day Care - they love it and so do I!” - D.J.

Filosofía

The mission of Butterfly Family Daycare is to provide a safe, developmentally appropriate at-home environment for every child. My focus is to provide a stimulating early care and education experience which promotes each child’s social/emotional, physical and cognitive development. My goal is to create life-long learners ready for kindergarten.

Ubicación

Butterfly Daycare Wonderschool is located in a welcoming, spacious single family home in the Bellflower neighborhood.

We’ve designed our care environment with play and learning areas that allow children to explore various developmentally-appropriate activities based on their interests. Some of our favorite areas include our reading / cozy area (for literacy, relaxation, and respite), block area (for gross motor skills and problem solving), and art area (for expressing emotions and ideas).

Children will have some outdoor time every day in my private yard or outdoor space. Children need space to run, jump, and move!

At Butterfly Daycare Wonderschool, I want to provide an environment that supports the cognitive, social, and emotional growth of each child.
