“Amanda provides a safe and fun learning environment. The outdoor space is engaging with a toddler slide, and I am glad that my son gets a good amount of outside time when he is at Amanda’s house. Excellent communication.”

About our program
Welcome to Amanda’s Home Daycare, nestled just outside of downtown Negaunee, MI, where we provide quality care for children ages 0 to 3.5 years old. We are open year-round, Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM.
Our licensed home daycare offers a warm, family-like atmosphere where children feel safe, loved, and inspired to learn through play. We follow a play-based, child-directed curriculum influenced by the HighScope approach and other research-backed methods, ensuring that each child receives developmentally appropriate activities.
We also emphasize language exposure, incorporating English, Spanish, and American Sign Language (ASL) into our routines, which supports cognitive growth and boosts confidence in young learners.
Children enjoy engaging daily circle times with books, colors, shapes, numbers, and letters, building foundational skills for future success. With a large outdoor play area and regular walking field trips on a nearby wooded trail, children enjoy fresh air, nature, and hands-on exploration.
Our daycare also provides snacks, diapers, and wipes, ensuring a convenient daily care experience for families.
Visit us at https://AHDNegaunee.com to see how our program can be the perfect place for your child to grow, learn, and discover.
