Q&A with Ms. Esther

Tell us about your experience working with young children?

I’ve always loved caring for children, but I really became interested in child care as a profession when I had my twin daughters. I placed them in a Family Child Care program when they were one, and I volunteered to help as much as possible. When they went to pre-K at a local child care center, I decided to get a full-time position at the same facility. Almost a decade later, I am still passionate about child care.
I just love working with kids, helping them learn, and watching them grow. It’s so rewarding. I think people often don’t realize how much children are capable of, so they don’t give kids the chances they deserve. I love giving kids the time to explore and realize their potential.
Even before I opened my program, people in my neighborhood would always come to me for advice about their children, like how to monitor television time or how to encourage kids to read. With my daughters and in my career, I’ve picked up a lot of tips and tricks, and I love to pass them along. It’s up to the parents to decide what works best for their family, but I love to share my own perspective whenever it might be helpful. I think when children succeed, we all benefit.

What are the key areas of focus at your daycare?

My main focus is to nurture the children in my program. We definitely have a schedule, and it’s very important to me that the children learn, but that isn’t possible if they don’t feel safe and secure. Sometimes the larger child care centers can be too much for kids, with lots of noise and constant activity. At Little Sunshine Home Daycare, we make sure that everyone feels comfortable.
Our days usually start with circle time, where we practice letters, songs, the alphabet, and counting—and those same lessons will come up in activities throughout the day. But some days, we start by dancing to let out energy. Just like adults, kids can get stressed and frustrated by busy mornings, and I’m always mindful of that. So we take time to just have fun, dance, and shake out those nerves.
It’s also important to me that parents feel comfortable and relaxed, which is why my program opens at 6:30 am. I’m a parent too, and I know how hectic mornings can be. I want parents to have plenty of time to bring their child to my program and still get to work on time. Our lives are busy, and I want to help make families’ mornings as stress-free as possible.

Can you tell us a bit about your home environment?

Our program is set up with lots of different opportunities for kids to explore. We have our main, open area for our daily circle time, and then there’s room for learning, play, and quiet time. We have spaces for arts and crafts, reading, studying the alphabet and numbers—we even have a little piano for practicing music and singing songs!
One of my favorite parts of our program is our learning wall, where we post the things we are focusing on that day. We review what’s on the wall during morning circle time, and then the kids can look at it throughout the day.
Of course, I also love that we have a huge backyard with lots of space for outdoor learning and play.

Here’s the inside scoop from other parents that have worked with Ms. Esther.

Michelle

Esther has cared for my daughter many times. One summer I had difficulty finding a camp to send her to because she is extremely shy and has difficulty adjusting to new situations. Esther has a unique way of making children feel at ease. I not only felt comfortable leaving her with Esther but my daughter actually looked forward to spending time at her home. Esther is not only caring but also makes education a high priority. She made sure to have a designated time for summer reading and writing each day which my daughter also enjoyed. Leaving your child with someone is never an easy decision but Esther’s joyful and caring personality makes that decision much easier.

I first met Esther when her twin daughters enrolled at my school. Esther was always stopping in to ask questions and we had many conversations about development and how kids learn and grow. The following year, Esther made it her mission to be with me in the classroom. She became an invaluable member of our staff and I was so impressed with her ability to meet each child’s unique needs. From our time together, I got to see Esther’s potential and urged her to start a career in early childhood education! I’m so happy she’s opening her own program, she works so hard and she’s all about providing a great environment for the kids.

Jennifer

Esther’s twins were students at my mother’s family child care program. I’ve always looked up to Esther because her daughter’s are so well spoken and considerate. Esther taught me the importance of building a strong foundation for learning with my own children, as those early years are so crucial for development! Today they’re children but tomorrow they’ll be adults. Esther gave me such great advice, I would not be the mom I am today without her help! She really understands that being invested and engaged are the most important parts of teaching young kids.

Valerie

Esther and I first met as coworkers and she later provided care for my daughter. She always has so much fun with the kids! I’m incredibly grateful to Esther for teaching my daughter how to better respect and get along with others. She’s such a good person and treats each child in her care as if they’re her own. I’m so excited that Esther is starting her own program and I’m hoping my son will be one of her first students!

Rates & Openings

Daycare rates depend on how old your child will be and what your schedule looks like. 5 days / week might get a slight discount, and infant rates are usually more than toddlers’. Finding a spot also depends on age and schedule because each daycare has a limited number of openings for each age range.

Let’s find a really good daycare for you

Get your own recommendations based on your preferences, daily routine, and what matters most to you.

Your family is unique to you, but some of your questions might not be. 😉 Here’s what most parents want to know when starting out.

What is NeighborSchools?

Hey there, nice to meet you 👋 We’re a new-ish startup that helps new-ish parents find daycare.

We know how hard finding good child care can be – especially for first-time parents. But really good care is what gives you the peace of mind to go back to work and feel confident that your child is getting the stimulation, socialization, and support they need to learn and grow.

So we created NeighborSchools to make this piece of parenthood a whole lot easier. We say “easier” because, let’s be honest, it’s still a big thing to figure out, but working together we can help you find some good options, understand the whole process, and choose a program you’ll feel really good about.

How’s it work?

Most first-time parents don’t know exactly what they’re looking for, so we created a simple survey that will ask you questions about your lifestyle, your daily routines, and your preferences for child care. We’ll then share 3 personalized recommendations that we think might be a good fit. We’ll also give you a timeline that maps out when we would suggest you start touring programs, choose a daycare, and pay a deposit to secure a spot. Your timeline is based on when you want to start care – so you set the pace, and you decide when you’ve found the right match.

Is there a cost?

Nope. Our daycare recommendation service is free for parents. The other half of our business is helping these small-scale daycares with software and services that handle all their administrative tasks, like online contracting, payment processing, and licensing requirements. Before NeighborSchools, services like these were only designed for large corporate child care centers, and part of our mission is to level the playing field for small, independent child care programs. That’s why we picked the name NeighborSchools – we’re all about making child care more personal, more human, and more equitable for the incredible individuals who do this work and care for our children.

How do I know if I’m ready to take the survey?

Generally, if you’re here, you’re ready. The survey lets us give you 3 recommendations to consider, but it’ll also help you better understand what factors to consider, and what questions to be asking right now. It’s simple things like where you live, your child’s date of birth, when you want to start care, and if you have any preferences around program philosophy or language of instruction. If you’re planning 6+ months ahead, it’s a great way to get started, and if you’re hoping to start daycare in the next 2-4 months, it’s definitely time to get started. Click here to start the survey.

How do I know if a daycare has openings?

Each program has a limited number of spots for each age range, so we need to know your schedule and child’s age before we can share availability. The survey covers these basics, as well as factors like drop-off and pick-up times to make sure that recommended programs fit your daily routine. Once we know your child’s age and schedule we can share rates and costs as well.

More questions? Text or email – we’re here to help.

We’re online Monday – Friday from 8am to 6pm Eastern.

DOGGIE DAYCARE – Just Pet Me

WELCOME TO JUST PET ME’S DOGGIE DAYCARE!

In a hurry to get to work, and not enough time to walk, potty or feed your beloved pup?

Just Pet Me‘s daycare program is available 6AM to 8:30PM Monday through Friday to accommodate every parent’s work schedule. We’re even open weekends! From puppies to seniors, whether your canine companion is large or small, there is plenty of space at their finger tips. At Just Pet Me, your dog has frequent access to our dog- friendly backyard complete with real shrubbery, padded cement and artificial turf for potty time, as well as our expansive indoor play rooms.

We are uniquely designed to give your dog ample fun and exercise, combined with the security and familiarity of being in his or her backyard! Besides the abundant free play we offer our members for playing tag and mingling, we also provide structured group exercise every day that includes ball playing and brushing times. Our members develop incredible friendships with their canine peers and create their own groups that meet and play every visit!

PUPPIES

Our commitment to our members is reflected in our Puppy Program. We are passionate about not only the general care of your puppy, but also helping you raise your puppy to be a happy, mannered, life-long companion.

Our puppies receive the highest level of care from our detailed, friendly concierge team, following a curriculum that comprehends and considers that the first seventeen weeks are the most critical learning period. It is the time that your puppy needs to learn basic life skills such as potty training, confidence with nail trims and baths, as well as, social etiquette with other dogs and interactions with humans.

Though numerous puppy socialization and training classes exist, the sessions are short for puppy to learn and retain accomplishments. Just Pet Me, on the other hand, provides reinforcement of your puppy’s knowledge with consistency, enabling training to stay intact over the course of enrollment in continuous daycare.

Noisy neighbors and my path to silence For those who are reluctant to read to the end, the solution is the Sony WH-1000XM2 active noise canceling headphones.

This topic is very familiar and painful for the majority. An obvious and simple solution, as actually the first thing that is advised on most forums on this topic, is to go to an agreement with the neighbors. But as you know, we live in Russia, and not in some Finland or Sweden, where only for an unkind look you can get a fine for trying to insult. Our contingent, which, in my opinion, is a purely personal conviction, if they do not observe the well-known everyday rule – do not make noise after 11.00, they will understand only brute physical force or the awareness of its imminent threat. For most of those who have a “botanical” physique and are not a speaker of our mighty Russian, to which I belong, one has to look for other solutions. Here the choice is actually not rich. The first obvious solution would be to think about soundproofing your apartment. But almighty physics tells us that in order to somehow protect yourself from the structural noise of reinforced concrete structures (the noise of a hammer drill, for example), you need to build another one inside your apartment that would not come into contact with vibrating bases. In some old Soviet houses, they actually did this in the bathrooms, installing the so-called sanitary cabin, which simply stood on its feet inside a box of load-bearing walls. It is clear that such a decision is for itself, only for the “desperate”. It remains only to try to do something with their hearing organs. In general, here is my list of tried unsuccessful methods:

• Call attempt. After the first visit, it became clear that in front of me was a typical “Yazhmat” for which the lichinus raging at one in the morning is a sacred act, which in no case should be torn away from.

• Earplugs from plain to soft silicone. They do not work at all on low-frequency noises like stomping, and on all other sounds, since the reinforced concrete structures of buildings work as a low-pass filter, cutting off the high-frequency component.

• Headphones with ear pads and an attempt to mask the noise by listening to music. As with the earplugs, ear pads also proved to be ineffective in combating the low-frequency component of the noise. I had to greatly increase the volume level, which made it even more uncomfortable.

Another option that I have not tried, but has almost matured to it – go to active combat by attaching the speaker to the ceiling or using an overhead emitter with ali. By the way, I chose the composition for this attack for a long time. The song “Bitch Neighbor” from S. Slepakov went very well.

But somehow digging through the forums during the next neighbor’s “attack” in an attempt to find at least some other options, I came across a topic where a person described the same problem as mine and a solution – headphones with active noise cancellation. After a test with simple headphones with ear pads, I was somehow skeptical about active noise cancellation, believing that since simple ear pads do not help, then where is the electronics. But at that moment I was on a corresponding emotional “upsurge”. And having scored on possible financial losses from an unsuccessful decision, I ordered, unfortunately, the already discontinued Sony WH-1000XM2 model. Why this particular model, because according to user reviews, the noise reduction function on this model was the most pumped. In the next releases of this model, again, judging by the reviews, for some reason they began to cut it.

In general, with an “optimistic” thought “Well, I’ll resell if it’s not, if only the seller doesn’t heat it up” (BU headphones) put them on with the noise reduction function I-i turned on, and ended up in silence. Well, not quite deadly, of course, masking white noise was heard. Let’s just say that I’m far from being an impressionable person, but for two days I was in complete euphoria from the feeling of finally getting rid of these “cute” neighbors with the push of a button.

So, a small review of the nuances for those who want to repeat my experience of using this device in this capacity. Headphones if you just turn them on and put them on turn off after five minutes. To prevent this from happening, you need to insert an extension cable into the 3.5” socket. You can’t connect it anywhere. I ran an additional audio extension cable under the 3.5” jacks from the TV. Another advantage of this solution, instead of using a connection via Bluetooth, is to turn off this very Bluetooth when a cable is connected to the 3.5 jack. Of course, I’m not a radiophobe, but somehow I’m not a fan of the presence of EMW emitters at close distances (apparently the consequences of working as a Radio engineer) The list of types of noise that I managed to overcome:

• From the top floor: The clatter of a child aged 5-8. Female educative cry. Children’s screams and squeals. Table din.

• Behind the wall (concrete monolithic wall, prefabricated house): playing the piano, buzzing of the soundtrack of the TV, jumping on the floor of a child of 8-10 years old (felt by the vibration of the sofa), slamming the entrance iron door with all the dope.

A particularly loud sound is certainly audible, but becomes muffled and, as it were, “distant”, like a cannonade if it is a clatter, for example. Against the background of masking white noise, there is no longer an all-pervading desire to start sorting out murder options in search of the most “attractive” one.

The sound from the TV is suppressed, according to my feelings, from normal volume to a whisper. The low-frequency component is better (male bass voice), the high-frequency component is worse (female voice, music)

on the edge of the pillow and putting your hand under it. It turns out a kind of compromise position of the head at 45 degrees approximately.

By the way, the headphones proved to be very effective in dealing with their own noises. For example, a working washing machine becomes completely inaudible, and the sound of a working robot vacuum cleaner against a straining background.

Thus, active noise cancellation, which works effectively on the low-frequency component of the audio range, has proven to be a very effective tool for dealing with noisy neighbors. Well, at least in my case, that’s for sure.
I will also say that this article is not a hidden advertisement for these headphones, especially since I recommend choosing a discontinued model.

If someone has a variant with the use of response acoustic influences was successful, please unsubscribe in the comments. The desire for revenge for an unsuccessful attempt at negotiations with the upper Yazhmother is still lingering. Moreover, headphones are now useful for the implementation of this option.

Who will warm the sun?

It’s cold for everyone in winter,
They run to the house faster.
The sun remains.
Who will keep him warm?

It used to be warm,
We were happy with the sun.
And now they are admiring the
Snowfall Dance.

I’ll draw the sun
In my album,
And as if it will become
Lighter in the house.

I’ll write a note, —
I already know how:
Don’t be sad, sunshine!
I’ll keep you warm.

(L. Slutskaya)

Winter brightened up

Winter brightened up:

Fringe on the dress

From transparent ice floes,

Snowflake stars.

All in diamonds, pearls,

In multi -colored lights,

Pouns around the radiance,

whispers spell:

– Lyagte, soft snow,

on the forests and to meadows,

Trinching, Apil !

On the windows, Santa Claus,

Scatter crystal roses

Light visions,

Sly gossip.

You, blizzard, chudi,

Round dances of the backwater,

Soar with a whirlwind of white

In the gray field!

Sleep, my land, sleep,

Keep magical dreams:

Wait, dressed in brocade,

New dawn!

(M. Pozharova)

Winter night in the village

Cheerfully shines

A moon over the village;

White snow sparkles

Blue light.

Rays of the moon

God’s temple is poured over;

Cross under the clouds,

It burns like a candle.

Empty, lonely

Sleepy village;

Deep blizzards

Huts skidded.

Silent silence

In the empty streets,

And no barking is heard

Watchdogs. ..

(I. Nikitin)

more winter,

So that instead of high snowdrifts

Green hills all around.

I look into the glass

Green,

And immediately winter

Turns into summer.

(A. Barto)

Cautious snow

Midnight snow,

He is not in a hurry.

He walks slowly,

But he knows the snow,

What does it matter

He will fall somewhere.

And the slower he is

Chagall,

The more careful he was,

The softer into the darkness

fell

And we-

Didn’t wake us up.

White path, white.

Winter has come.

(V. Stepanov)

Winter

Winter has come.

I wear a white hat,

I breathe white air,

My eyelashes are white,

Coats and mittens, –

You can’t distinguish me in the cold

Among the whitening birches.

Zamru. And the squirrel in silence

Suddenly jumps into my arms.

(V. Stepanov)

Winter

Ponds are tied up until March,

But how warm the houses are!

It wraps gardens in snowdrifts

Winter is caring.

Snow falls from birch trees

In drowsy silence.

Paintings summer frost

Draws on the window.

(E. Rusakov)

Winter Winter

there, in the Khomozny region,

where the blizzard, snowstorms,

And in the sky Strazdny,

months in the cradle,

cities from the snow,

Blizzard and melancholy,

A princess lives in it,

Girl Winter.

In a fur coat made of snowflakes,

Slippers – crystal,

Handbag made of ice,

Sadness in the eyes.

Ice Kingdom —

Her home,

Pearls – wealth,

Worst enemy – heat!

Comes to visit

Reindeer,

Carries

Winter every day.

(L. Aleinikova)

Puppy and snow

Puppy looked at the first snow
And couldn’t understand anything.
– Why so many white flies
Crowded into our yard?

Or maybe it’s bird fluff
Flying over the fence?

Chews, chews, but that’s the trouble!
There is only water on the tongue.
The puppy was completely embarrassed
And lay back in the kennel.

He was not stupid, but simply small
And he saw snow for the first time…
(L. Dyakonov)

Herringbone

Through the snowdrifts, through the bushes
A white hare gallops.
There is no hole either here or there
What is a hare to do?

He is afraid of the hunter,
He is trembling all over with fear.
The hare jumps, the hare rushes,
The hare runs to the Christmas tree.

Hide me, herringbone,
Hurry up!
Hide me green.
Sorry!

And quickly covered
Christmas tree branches
Poor bunny
With long ears.

Only the tail is visible,
Well, it doesn’t matter:
The tail can be hidden
In the snow
Is always.
(D. Khorol, translated by M. Sidorenko)

December

In December, in December

All the trees are in silver.

Our river, as if in a fairy tale,

Frost paved during the night,

Updated skates, sledges,

Brought a Christmas tree from the forest.

The tree was crying at first

From home warmth.

In the morning she stopped crying,

Breathed, came to life.

Her needles tremble a little,

On the branches the fires lit up.

Like a ladder, a Christmas tree

Lights run up.
Flappers shine with gold.

He lit a star with silver

He who ran to the top of his head

The most daring light.

The year has passed like yesterday.

Above Moscow at this hour

The clock of the Kremlin tower strikes

Fireworks twelve times.

(S. Marshak)

January

Opening the calendar —
January begins.
In January, in January
Lots of snow in the yard.
Snow – on the roof, on the porch.
The sun in the blue sky.
Stoves are being heated in our house,
Smoke is rising into the sky in a column.
(S. Marshak)

January – the beginning of the year

January – the beginning of the year,
Its frost is strong.
All nature fell asleep.
Now it’s not time for thunderstorms.
Under the snow cover
The earth rests.
In the land big and small
All white fields.

(T. Kerste)

It happened in January

It happened in January
There was a Christmas tree on the mountain,
And near this Christmas tree
Evil wolves roamed.
Once upon a time,
Sometimes at night,
When it’s so quiet in the forest,
They meet a wolf under the mountain
A hare and a hare.

Who wants in the New Year
Fall into the clutches of a wolf!
Bunnies rushed forward
And jumped on the Christmas tree.

They pressed their ears,
They hung like toys.

Ten little bunnies
They hang on the Christmas tree and are silent.
Deceived the wolf.
It was in January –
He thought that on the mountain
Decorated Christmas tree.

(A. Barto)

January

Sheep doze, sows sleep,
huts doze, gardens doze.
In the sky – crow’s crosses,
In the field – hare footprints.
The rivers are chained, the lakes
cast silver.
Opening for the gaze
light forest above the hillock.
There the drifting snow roams,
There the wolves prowl and roam for meat food
.
And in a den under a pine tree
a bear sleeps and licks its paw.
A menacing howl of the wind is heard.
Children skiing
above his head.
( I. Brodsky)

February

The winds blow in February,
They howl loudly in the pipes.
Snake rushes along the ground
Light snow.
Rising, rushing into the distance
Aircraft links.
This celebrates the February
Army’s birth.

(S. Marshak)

February

Blizzards sweep in February,
It’s still winter in February,
But spring drops
I already dreamed of yesterday.
The sun was dreaming in the sky.
Dreamed of the first grass,
Dreamed of birds from the south,
Wind, and green foliage.
In the morning I run to the window
A winter miracle, everywhere.
Snow and blizzard are circling, circling
A white waltz on the ground,
But winter will soon give way
All rights will be given to spring,
In the meantime, snow and blizzard
Let them dance in silence.

( M. Gergaulova)

The first snow

The smell of winter cold

The fields and forests.

Light up in bright purple

Skies before sunset.

At night the storm raged,

And with the dawn to the village,

To the ponds, to the deserted garden

The first snow was carried.

And today over the wide

White tablecloth fields

We said goodbye to the belated

String of geese.

(I. Bunin)

The first snow

The smell of winter cold
On fields and forests.
The skies lit up with bright purple
Before sunset.
The storm raged at night,
And with the dawn to the village,
To the ponds, to the deserted garden
The first snow began to fall.
And today over the wide
White tablecloth fields
We said goodbye to the belated
String of geese.

(I. Bunin)

Mom! look out the window

Mom! look out the window –
To know, yesterday it was not for nothing that the cat washed its nose:
There is no dirt, the whole yard is covered,
It has brightened, turned white –
It can be seen that there is frost.

Not prickly, light blue
Frost hanging on the branches –
Look at least you!
Like someone with a thorny
Fresh, white, puffy cotton wool
Removed all the bushes.

Now there will be no dispute:
For the sled, and uphill
It’s fun to run!
Really, Mom? You won’t refuse,
But you yourself will probably say:
“Well, hurry up and go for a walk!”

(A. Fet)

That year the autumn weather

From the novel “Eugene Onegin”

That year the autumn weather
Stood outside for a long time,
Waited for winter, waited for nature.
Snow fell only in January
On the third night. Waking up early,
Tatyana saw through the window
A whitewashed yard in the morning,
Curtains, roofs and a fence,
Light patterns on the glass,
Trees in winter silver,
Forty merry ones in the yard
And softly covered mountains
Winters with a brilliant carpet.
Everything is bright, everything is white around.

(A.S. Pushkin)

Winter!.. Peasant, triumphant…

From the novel “Eugene Onegin”

Winter!.. Peasant, triumphant,
Updates path on firewood;
His horse, smelling snow,
Trotting somehow;
Fluffy reins exploding,
A daring wagon flies;
The coachman is sitting on the box
In a sheepskin coat, in a red sash.
Here is a yard boy running,
Planting a bug into a sled ,
Transforming himself into a horse;
The scamp has already frozen his finger:
It hurts and it’s funny,
