FAQs

AMERICA’S MOST ACCREDITED

We’re so proud!

Nationally only 10% of daycares are accredited – nearly 100% of our learning centers are. That’s a big difference,
and that means KinderCare kids are getting the very best. Here’s why.

SCHOOL-READY

What Learning Looks Like

Our talented early-childhood teachers set kids down the path toward becoming lifelong learners in a positive, safe, and nurturing environment.

Buena Ventura KinderCare Programs

Infant Programs (6 weeks–1 year)

Leaving your baby in someone else’s care is a big step. Everyone at our
centers—most importantly, our naturally gifted infant teachers—will work with
you to make sure the transition goes smoothly. When you step into our infant
classroom, you’ll see how much we want your infant to feel safe, loved, and
ready to explore their world.

Toddler Programs (1–2 Years)

Everything in our toddler classroom is designed for little explorers. That’s
because a lot is going on at this age. When your child is wandering all over the
place, that means they’re learning and discovering new things every day. We’ll
help them explore their interests (and find new ones!) as they play and learn.

Discovery Preschool Programs (2–3 Years)

This age is filled with so much wonder and curiosity. That’s why we offer a ton
of books and toys and bring artwork down to kids eye level. Children in
discovery preschool also begin to learn how we all work together in a
classroom. Simple math and science, pretend play, and group play help them
get used to a more structured school setting.

Preschool Programs (3–4 Years)

This age is all about expression, when kids really start to form their own ideas
about what they want to play and how they want to create. Every day in our
preschool classroom, your child will explore science experiments, create
artwork, and play pretend—all the skills needed for their big next step:
kindergarten!

Prekindergarten Programs (4–5 Years)

When you walk into one of our pre-K classrooms, you’ll see artwork and
writing displayed around the room. Labels are everywhere to help kids connect
letters with words. You’ll also see pictures on the walls that reflect the families
in our community. Your child will also deepen their knowledge in language,
math, science, Spanish, and social skills.

Kindergarten Programs (5–6 Years)

Welcome to kindergarten: the gateway to grade school and everything that
comes next! Offered in select centers, our kindergarten programs have small
class sizes and curriculums that mix learning and fun. The basic building
blocks of reading, writing, math, and science are key in kindergarten, so we
make sure they get lots of practice in all of these areas.

Before- and After-School Programs (5–12 Years)

You can count on us to provide reliable care for your school-ager while you’re
at work, with safe transportation from our center to your child’s school and
back! Whether your child wants to start a drama club, build a volcano, or
create a comic book, they will have a place to follow their dreams. Your child
will start and end the day with a whole lot of fun!

School Break Programs (preschool, prekindergarten, and school-age)

Winter break, spring break, summer break—when school’s out (but you still need to work), you
can count on KinderCare to provide a safe and supportive learning environment that’s focused
on fun. We welcome children ages 5–12 during school break times and make sure they have a
sensational, screen-free experience they won’t forget.

Learning Adventures – Enrichment Program

Cooking Academy™ (3 – 12 Years)

In Cooking Academy, kids learn new recipes from cultures around the world and
develop a healthy relationship with food. They’ll whip up everything from Southwest
rainbow lettuce wraps to pumpkin muffins, building their skills in STEM, communication,
and more along the way. And yes—little chefs get to eat their culinary creations!

Music Explorers™ (2 – 4 Years)

KinderCare families are already giving a standing ovation to our newest Learning
Adventures program: Music Explorers! Kids will learn to sing, move, listen, play
instruments, and even create their own tunes. Our original curriculum blends math,
science, social studies, literacy, and mindfulness (think yoga!) for a uniquely KinderCare
way of learning the foundations of music.

Phonics Adventures® (2 – 4 Years)

Learning how to read is a whole lot of fun at KinderCare! We help kids grow to love
books and words (and get ready for kindergarten) in our Phonics Adventures program.
From discovering the basics of vowels to practicing poetry, kids learn all about letters
and sounds in small-group lessons made just for their age group. (Bonus: Kids who
attend our phonics program are more prepared than their peers for school—and we
have the data to prove it.)

Our Teachers

We’re the only company in early childhood education to select teachers based on natural talent. Being a great educator isn’t enough though.
KinderCare teachers are also amazing listeners, nurturers, boo-boo fixers, and smile-makers. Put more simply,
we love our teachers and your child will, too.

Meet just a few of our amazing KinderCare teachers!

A KINDERCARE TEACHER WITH

An Artist’s Heart

“My classroom is full of art!” says Mary Annthipie-Bane, an award-winning early childhood educator at KinderCare. Art and creative expression, she says, help children discover who they really are.

We put our best-in-class teachers in a best-in-class workplace. We’re so proud to have been named one of Gallup’s 37 winners of the Great Workplace Award.
When you put great teachers in an engaging center, your children will experience
an amazing place to learn and grow.

Family Stories

Don’t take our word for it. Hear what our families have to say about our amazing center!

My Daughter has been at the Buena Ventura KinderCare for about three years now, and I would not think about taking her anywhere else. The staff and teachers are great because they are always there for you and address your concerns. I have decided to keep my daughter in KinderCare for the Kindergarten program instead of putting her into a public school, because they have a great curriculum for the children and I am very confident that she will do great while enjoy being there.

DiAnn C. – KinderCare Parent
One of the hardest things I have ever had to do is leave my infant son in the care of virtual strangers. While I worked full-time, I knew that these strangers would be helping me raise my son. While looking for a place for my son to go, I visited different centers, looked into in-home centers, called child care licensing offices, and more. Some of the best advice I received was from the child care licensing office. The person on the other end said, “It is good to check all options, but usually your gut knows where to take your child”. Well, she was correct because after visiting Buena Ventura Kindercare, I knew this was the right place for us. We have been coming to Kindercare for over four years. We are overall very happy. Although it has not always been perfect, no place is, the current group of teachers are fantastic, especially Ms. Virgie and Ms. Shawn. They care about each child and their individual personalities. Any concerns that I may have, they listen to and try to resolve the matter promptly. My son can be a typical five-year-old boy so he will test his boundaries. When there are issues, we work together as a team to do what is best for him while working on consistency for all of us to follow. Again, they focus on the child while they balance all other aspects of running a facility. My son’s current teacher, Ms. Jaquie is phenomenal! She is very passionate about her job and it translates into the children’s enthusiasm. Ms. Jaquie, really gets to know her students and how each one of them learns, as most have different learning styles. She makes learning fun and genuinely wants to see the children grow both academically and socially. It is wonderful to see my son happy about learning and interacting with his friends.   I would highly recommend Buena Ventura KinderCare!

The Wishing Box

Agnes Higgins perfectly understood the reason for the blissful, absent expression that did not leave the face of her husband Harold during breakfast of scrambled eggs and orange juice .

– Well, tell me, what did you dream about this night ? Agnes snorted contemptuously, threateningly spreading sea plum jam on her toast with a table knife.

“I was just now remembering,” said Harold, looking with happy, misty eyes that early September morning through the seductive and quite real forms of his wife, a rosy-cheeked, full-haired blonde in a peignoir with roses, – the manuscripts that we discussed with William Blake.

– But how did you guess that it was William Blake? Agnes struggled to hide her annoyance.

Harold looked surprised.

– According to his drawings, of course.

What could Agnes say to that? Suppressing a flare of discontent, she silently drank coffee, struggling with a vague jealous feeling that had entangled her in a gloomy, sinister web for the third month, starting from her wedding night, when she found out about Harold’s dreams. That first night of the honeymoon, early in the morning, Agnes’s deep, dreamless sleep was disturbed by the violent, convulsive movement of Harold’s right hand. In a moment of fright, Agnes pushed her husband aside and tenderly, in a motherly way, asked what had happened, deciding that he was fighting off someone in a nightmare. But it was something else.

“I have just started playing the Imperial Concerto ^[15],” the husband said in a sleepy voice. “Must have raised his hand for the first chord when you woke me up.”

At first, Harold’s vivid and vivid dreams amused Agnes. Every morning she asked her husband what he dreamed about, and he told her his dream in detail, in every detail, as if it were an important, real event.

“I was invited to the Library of Congress to meet with American poets,” he said with pleasure. “William Carlos Williams was there in a fine rough wool coat, and the one who wrote about Nantucket.”0021 [16] , and Robinson Jeffers, who looks like an anthology picture of an American Indian, and finally Robert Frost, who arrived in a sedan and said something witty that made me laugh.

Or this:

– I dreamed of an amazing desert, all red and purple – every grain of sand in it sparkled like a ruby or sapphire. A white leopard spotted with gold stood over a bright blue stream, its hind legs on one side and its front paws on the other, and a small family of ants climbed across the stream on its back. Climbing along the tail, they crawled further and descended to the ground, passing between his eyes.

Harold’s dreams were real miniature works of art. Undoubtedly, the CPA with a strong literary taste (instead of daily newspapers he read Hoffmann, Kafka and monthly astrological magazines) also had an amazingly vivid, colorful imagination. Over time, her husband’s habit of treating his dreams as an integral part of daytime existence began to annoy Agnes. She felt superfluous. It turned out that Harold spends a third of his life surrounded by celebrities or incredible, mythical creatures in an incendiary, nerve-wracking atmosphere from which Agnes is forever banished and only hears about her.

Weeks passed and Agnes began to think. Although she was by no means going to admit it to Harold, her own dreams, if they were (and they didn’t happen very often), frightened her: usually dark, faintly shimmering landscapes and ominous, indistinct figures. She did not remember her nightmares in detail, they dissipated upon awakening, but all day she was acutely aware of the suffocating, electrified atmosphere that weighed on her. Agnes was ashamed to share these fragmentary nightmarish visions with Harold for fear that they would seem too flawed against the backdrop of his powerful imagination. Her rare dreams – you could count them on your fingers – seemed so prosaic, so boring in comparison to the regal, baroque splendor of Harold’s dreams. How could you, for example, tell him: “I fell in my sleep”, or “Mom died and I was very sad”, or “Something was chasing me, but I could not run”? The truth was, Agnes painfully realized, her dreams would make the most diligent and benevolent psychoanalyst yawn.

Where did the golden days of childhood, when she believed in fairies, mused the yearning Agnes, go? Then, at least, events were happening in her dreams, and not so boring and ugly. When she was in her seventh year, she sadly recalled, she dreamed of a fairy-tale land beyond the clouds, where caskets of desires, similar to coffee grinders, grew on the trees, and it was worth plucking such a casket, turning the handle nine times and whispering a wish through the side hole, as it came true. Another time she dreamed of three magical blades of grass by the mailbox at the end of their street: the blades of grass sparkled like tinsel on a Christmas tree – red, blue and silver. In another dream, she and her younger brother Michael stood in winter overalls outside Dodie Nelson’s white-tiled house. The gnarled roots of the maple serpentine over the hard brown earth; Agnes wore red-and-white-striped woolen mittens, and when she held out her cupped hand, turquoise-blue snowflakes fell into her. But that was pretty much all Agnes remembered from her childhood, more creative than her current existence. At what age did the generous magical world of dreams leave her? And for what?

In the meantime, dreams were pouring out of Harold like a cornucopia, and he was telling them to her at breakfast. Once, even before meeting Agnes, in the depressing, bad times of his life, Harold dreamed that a burned red fox was running through the kitchen: her fur was charred black, several wounds were bleeding. Harold later told a secret that at a more favorable time, shortly after his marriage, the red fox again appeared to him: miraculously healed, with luxurious fur, she presented him with a bottle of black Quink ink. Harold especially liked fox dreams, and they often recurred. Like a dream about a giant pike.

“There was a pond,” Harold said one hot August morning, “where my cousin Albert and I used to fish, it was full of pike. Last night I was also fishing there, and I was hooked by a huge pike – you can’t imagine such a thing. This specimen must have been the great-great-grandfather of all the others. I pulled and pulled and pulled this pike, but there was no end to it.

“And when I was a child,” Agnes entered, gloomily stirring sugar into black coffee, “I dreamed of Superman, like in a color movie. Blue suit, red cape, black hair – he was as handsome as a prince; we flew with him, and I felt the wind whistle in my ears, and tears come out of my eyes. We flew over Alabama. I knew it was Alabama, because the land looked like a map, and on it, right on top of the big green mountains, it was written: “Alabama.”

Harold was greatly impressed by the story.

– What did you dream about last night? – he asked. There was almost remorse in his tone: to tell the truth, his own dreams so occupied him that he could not imagine himself in the role of a listener and never asked his wife about what she was dreaming about. Now Harold was looking at the pretty, agitated face with new interest: after the honeymoon, he realized for the first time what a delight to the eyes this lovely creature across the table.

For a moment, Agnes was confused by her husband’s well-intentioned question: she had long since left behind the time when she seriously thought about hiding Freud’s book in the closet in order to strengthen her position with other people’s dreams and thus stir up her husband’s interest in herself every morning . And now, abandoning her former restraint, she made a desperate decision to confess her inferiority.

“I’m not dreaming,” Agnes said in a low, sad voice. – No more dreaming.

Harold was obviously taken aback by this news.

“Perhaps,” he tried to console his wife, “you just don’t use your imagination to its full potential. Gotta practice. Come on, close your eyes.

Agnes obediently closed her eyes.

– Well, what do you see now? Harold asked hopefully.

Agnes was terrified. She didn’t see anything.

“Nothing,” she said in a trembling voice. “Just some fog.

“Don’t worry,” Harold said briskly, involuntarily assuming the tone of a doctor dealing with an unpleasant but not fatal disease, “imagine a goblet.

– Which is exactly cup? Agnes pleaded.

“Whatever you want,” Harold said. – You must describe him to me.

Without opening her eyes, Agnes slowly made her way into the depths of her own consciousness. With the greatest difficulty, she managed to recreate a faintly flickering silver goblet, floating somewhere in the mysterious abyss of the mind: it was trembling, ready to die out, like a candle flame.

“It’s silver,” she answered almost defiantly. – He has two pens.

– Fine. Now look at the engraving on it.

At the limit of her strength, Agnes imagined a reindeer, faintly traced on silver, entwined with grape leaves.

– What color is the picture? asked Harold, who, it seemed to Agnes, did not know the feeling of pity.

“Green,” Agnes lied as she hurriedly painted the vine leaves. – The leaves are green. And the sky is black. She felt something akin to pride in her resourcefulness. “And deer fur is reddish-brown with white patches.

– Good. Now put some gloss on the goblet.

Agnes tried to do this too, feeling like a liar.

“This picture is in the back of my head,” she said doubtfully, opening her eyes. “I see everything in the depths of my head. Are you like that too?

“No,” Harold was surprised. “My dreams appear behind the very eyelids, like on a movie screen. They just show up and that’s it. I don’t have to do anything. That’s how it is now. And he closed his eyes. “I see glittering crowns hanging from the willow and swinging back and forth.

Agnes was sternly silent.

“You will succeed,” Harold tried to jokingly cheer up his wife. – Try to imagine different things every day, as I taught.

Agnes did not develop this theme. While Harold was at work, she made it a rule to read a lot: as she read, pictures appeared before her eyes. Seized by a fit of uncontrollable hysteria, she swallowed novels, women’s magazines, newspapers, and even anecdotes from the book “The Joys of Cooking”; she read travel guides, appliance ads, Sears catalogues, instructions for bubble generators, liner notes on record sleeves—anything that helped her not to think about the gaping emptiness in her head that Harold had made her painfully aware of. But as soon as she took her eyes off the printed editions, this protection ceased to exist.

The supremely self-sufficient and unchanging reality of things around Agnes was disheartening. With envious admiration, her frightened, almost fixed eyes darted to the oriental carpet, the blue Williamsburg wallpaper, the gilded dragons on the Chinese vase from the mantelpiece, and the painted medallions on the upholstered sofa on which she sat. Agnes gasped for breath, these things made her suffocate, because their solid, pragmatic existence threatened the deep hidden roots of her ephemeral nature. She knew very well that Harold would never put up with the absurd vanity of tables and chairs; if he didn’t like something or got bored, he would change everything by turning on fantasy. Ah, Agnes lamented, if in a sweet hallucination an octopus with a purple-orange pattern on its tentacles crawled towards her on the floor, she would thank fate. Let anything – just to prove that the imagination has not left it irrevocably, that the eyes do not just fix the surrounding reality, but are able to transform it. “A rose,” she repeated monotonously, as at a memorial service, “this is a rose, this is a rose . ..”0021 [17]

One morning, while reading a novel, Agnes suddenly realized with horror that of the five pages she looked at, not a word could be retained in her memory. She went back, but the letters were spreading across the sheet, twisting in malevolent black snakes, and folded into hissing, untranslatable jargon. It was after this that Agnes began to go to the cinema around the corner every day. She could watch the same film several times, she didn’t care: the moving kaleidoscope flashing before her eyes lulled her and plunged her into a trance, the voices merged into one soothing, obscure code that drove the dead silence from her head. In the end, by persuasion and flattery, she convinced Harold to buy a TV set on installments. It turned out to be better than a movie: now she could watch programs all day and drink sherry. Meeting Harold in the evening after work, Agnes noted with malevolent satisfaction that her husband’s face blurred before her eyes and she managed to change his features at will. Sometimes she gave his skin a green color, sometimes lavender, sometimes a Greek nose, sometimes an eagle’s beak.

“But I like sherry,” she stubbornly told Harold when her secret drinking became apparent even to his loving eye and he asked his wife to drink less. – He relaxes me.

However, the sherry did not relax Agnes enough to allow her to sleep. When the alcohol-infused ghostly mist dissipated, she lay motionless in bed, hungover, and twisted the sheets nervously with her fingers, as if with claws. Harold had long been breathing evenly and peacefully beside him, reliving his amazing adventures in his sleep. So night after night Agnes never closed her eyes, seized with icy panic. Worse, now she was in constant tension. Finally, a cruel truth suddenly dawned on her: the veil of sleep, the restoring darkness of oblivion that separates one day from another – past and future – forever and irrevocably disappeared for her. An intolerable succession of sleepless, dreamless days and nights stretched out before her; her mind is doomed to a complete void, where there is no hope of the birth of any image that could cope with the crushing attack of pompous, smug tables and chairs. In this state, Agnes thought with disgust, she could live a hundred years—women in her family live long.

The Higgins’ family doctor, Dr. Marcus, after listening to Agnes’s complaints of poor sleep, comforted her in his usual cheerful manner:

– It’s just a minor nervous breakdown, nothing to worry about. Take this medicine before going to bed – one pill at a time, and you will sleep like a woodchuck.

Agnes didn’t ask if she would dream in this case, she just put a box of pills in her bag and took the bus home.

Two days later, on the last Friday of September, after returning home from work, Harold (the whole hour-long train ride, he pretended to sleep with his eyes closed, but was actually sailing on a cherry sailboat dhau ^[18] up the luminous river, in whose crystal-clear water, large white elephants splashed in the shade of Moorish towers of colored glass) found Agnes lying on the sofa in the living room. The wife was wearing her favorite princess-style emerald taffeta evening gown, she looked as beautiful as a lily plucked by the wind; her eyes were closed, and an empty pill box and an overturned glass were lying on the carpet nearby. A light, mysterious, triumphant smile froze on her calm face, as if in a distant land inaccessible to mortals, she was finally dancing a waltz with a dark prince in a red cloak from the dreams of her youth.

Comparison

How I envy novelists!

I imagine him – or rather her, because it is women I am looking for for comparison – so, I imagine her: she cuts rose bushes with large scissors, adjusts her glasses, arranges cups on the table, hums something, emptying ashtrays, fiddling with children, catching a slanting beam of light and a glimpse of good weather, penetrating with the help of a stingy and at the same time excellent X-ray vision into the psyche of neighbors – neighbors on the train, or in line at the dentist, or in the tea shop on the corner. Everything is perfect for this lucky lady! Old shoes, doorknobs, flannel nightgowns, cathedrals, nail polish, jet planes, rose arbors, and budgerigars will do; a bit of mannerism – sucking on a tooth, pulling at the hem of a dress, whatever, any strange, rude, beautiful and pitiful things. Not to mention emotions, motivations – all these powerful, destructive states. It deals with Time: it rushes forward or rolls back, blossoms, fades, reveals itself. She deals with people in Time. And, in my opinion, Time is completely at her disposal. She can, if she wants to, stretch out the action for a century, for the life of one generation or for one summer.

And I have a minute at my disposal.

I’m not talking about epic poems. We all know how long they can be. I’m talking about small, behind the scenes, ordinary poems.

How can I describe them? The door opens, the door closes. In between you see a fleeting picture: a garden, a man, a storm, a dragonfly, a heart, a city. I am reminded of the round glass Victorian paperweights, which, as far as I remember, are no longer to be found – nothing to do with the plastic products that flooded the Woolworth stores ^[19] . The old paperweight is a transparent ball, almost perfect, clean, with a forest, or a village, or a family group inside. You turn it up and down – it snows. Everything changes instantly. The old pictures will never appear in it – neither spruces, nor pediments, nor faces.

This is how a poem arises. It takes up so little space! And time too! The poet knows how to pack suitcases perfectly:

Sudden appearance in the crowd of these persons;
Petals on a branch black from moisture ^[20] .

Here it is – the beginning and the end on one exhalation. Is this possible for a novelist? In a paragraph? In a page? Maybe dilute with water, like paint, dilute, disperse?

This is how I become self-satisfied, I find advantages in poets.

If a poem is a tightly clenched fist, then a novel is a palm open and relaxed: it has roads, detours and destinations; there is a love line, there is an intellectual one; it also includes morals and money. Where the fist does not hesitate and stun with a blow, an open palm can grope and contain a lot on this journey.

There will never be a toothbrush in my poem. I am not interested in ordinary, useful and necessary things. I will never insert them into a poem. Once, however, she mentioned a yew tree. And with amazing selfishness it took possession of the whole poem. It was not a yew tree by a church on the road passing by a house in the city where a certain woman lived … and so on, as it would be in a novel. Not at all. He firmly reigned in the center of the poem, ruling over the ghostly shadows, the voices in the church garden, the clouds, the birds, the gentle melancholy in which I conceived him—everything! I couldn’t handle it. And in the end the poem became about the yew. This yew was too proud to be a pale shadow in the novel.

I may annoy some poets by suggesting that the poem is arrogant. They will object that a poem can also contain everything. And even with more precision and power than the baggy, disheveled, vague writings called novels. I give these poets the right to write about excavators and old trousers. Poems don’t have to be too chaste. I don’t even mind a toothbrush if the result is a beautiful poem. But cases like the poetic toothbrush are rare. And when they appear, they tend, like my indefatigable yew, to bulge and come to the fore.

It’s not like that in novels. There, the toothbrush returns to its cup with remarkable speed and is forgotten. Time flows, swirls, twists, and people have the opportunity to grow and change before our eyes. All the splendid rubbish of life revolves around: chests of drawers, thimbles, cats, a catalog of all sorts of things so beloved and read to the holes, with the contents of which the novelists want to acquaint us. I do not want to say that they do not have a system, insight, orderliness. I only assume that the form does not dominate them as much as it does the poets.

The door of the novel, like the door of the poem, also closes. But not so quickly, not so painfully, not with such undeniable completeness.

Fifteen dollar eagle

There are several tattoo parlors in Madigan Square, but none of them compare to Carmi’s. This is who the true artist of needle and paint is, a true artist of his craft. Teenagers, port bums, out-of-town couples visiting for a beer all stop and stick to Carmi’s window. Everyone has a dream, says Carmi, a rose on the heart, an eagle on the muscles, the sweetest Jesus in the soul, so come to me. In this life, you can wear a heart on your skin – I am the person who can do it. For animal lovers – dogs, wolves, horses and lions. For ladies – butterflies, birds of paradise, smiling or crying baby faces – take your pick. There are a variety of roses: large, small, in bud and blooming, roses with a name, roses with thorns, roses with heads of Dresden dolls, pierced in the center with arrows, with pink petals, green leaves, beautifully highlighted with a black stroke. Serpents and dragons for Frankenstein. Not to mention cowgirls, Hawaiian dancers, mermaids and movie stars with pink nipples or, if you prefer, completely naked. If you want a drawing on the back, I can suggest Christ on the cross, with thieves on either side and angels on top, stretching from left to right a scroll with the inscription “Mount Golgotha” in old English handwriting, similar to gilding, as yellow is similar to it.

Outside, people are pointing their fingers at floor-to-ceiling colored stucco. They share their impressions together, and something comes through the glass:

– Dear, just look at these peacocks!

– It’s crazy to spend money on tattoos. I only paid for one, a panther on my shoulder.

– Do you want a heart? I’ll tell him where to put it.

The first time I saw Carmi at work was through my longtime friend Ned Bean. Leaning against the wall with hearts and flowers, waiting for clients, Carmi spent time in the company of Mr. Tomolillo, a shabby little man in a woolen jacket thrown over non-existent shoulders and not able to either decorate or slightly correct his figure. The jacket is covered in brown squares, each the size of a cigarette pack and boldly outlined in black. It is quite possible to play tic-tac-toe on it. A brown felt hat pulled down to his eyebrows, sort of like a mushroom cap. The narrow, triangular, concentrated face of the male praying mantis. When Ned introduces me, Mr. Tomolillo bends into a bow as crisp as the string of his mustache above his upper lip. His bow delights me: after all, the cabin is so crowded that none of the four of us, at the slightest movement, can not hurt the others with a shoulder or knee.

The cabin smells of gunpowder and some kind of antiseptic. Along the back wall, from left to right, are Carmi’s worktable, electric needles attached to a rotating paint rack, the owner’s swivel chair opposite the window, a straight-backed client chair, an empty bucket, and an orange wooden box littered with scraps of paper and pencil stubs. In front of the salon, next to the glass door, there is another chair, against the back of which is leaned a large poster with the image of Golgotha, next to it on a shabby wooden table is a cardboard filing cabinet. Above Carmi’s chair, on the wall, among babies and daisies, hang two faded portraits of a young man: one shows his torso from the front, the other from behind. From a distance it seems that the young man is wearing a long-sleeved shirt – fitted, made of black lace. Upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that there is nothing on the young man: these are tattoos with creeping ivy covering his body.

A yellowed clipping from some old magazine depicts Eastern men and women sitting cross-legged on fringed cushions with their backs to the camera, their robes embroidered with seven-headed dragons, mountain ranges, cherry trees and waterfalls. But the ad says, “These people don’t have any clothes on. Tattoos are a necessary sign of belonging to their community. Such work costs at least three hundred dollars. Next to the clipping is a photograph of a bald man, whose skull is wrapped around the back by the tentacles of an octopus.

“I think their skin is worth more than the drawings,” says Mr. Tomolillo. “Especially if you put it on a board.

But neither the tattooed youth nor the group of Oriental people can compare to Carmi, who himself is a living advertisement of his skill: on the right biceps – a schooner under sail in the ocean of rose and holly leaves, on the left – Gypsy Rose Lee ^[21], the bending camp in the belly dance; hearts, stars and anchors, lucky numbers and names, daylilies are crowded on the forearms – all this mixes, blurs and looks like a comic book forgotten in the rain. According to rumors, Carmi, a fan of the Wild West, has a rearing wild mustang impaled from the navel to the collarbone with a stubborn as hell cowboy clinging to his back. However, this may be a legend due to the owner’s habit of wearing cowboy boots made of embossed leather with high heels and Bill Hickok’s belt ^[22] , trimmed with red stones, which he wears with black chinos. Carmi has blue eyes. Their blueness is in no way inferior to that which is sung in songs about the Texas sky.

“I have been doing this for sixteen years,” Carmi says, leaning against a painted wall, “and I assure you I am still learning. I got my first tattoo in Maine during the war. Hearing that I was an expert in this field, I was invited to the Women’s Army Corps…

– Should I give them tattoos? I was surprised.

– Stab numbers – that’s all.

– Perhaps some of you got scared?

– Of course, not without it. But someone came again. Once, two women from this building showed up on the same day to get a tattoo. They muttered something indistinct, stammered. “Listen,” I told them. “Better come another time when you know what you want.” What problems?” “It’s not that we don’t know what we want,” one squeaked. “We just haven’t decided where to put it.” “Well, if that’s the problem,” I say, “trust me. I’m like a doctor. So many women have passed through me that there will be no problems. “I would like three roses,” she then continued. “One on the stomach and one on each buttock.” Then the second one plucked up courage: you know how it happens, and asked me to draw a rose for her on …

– Large or small roses? “Mr. Tomolillo doesn’t want to miss a single detail.

“About the same,” Carmi points to a picture of roses, where each bud is the size of a Brussels sprout. – Large. Well, I completed the order and I tell them, “I’ll give you a ten dollar discount if you come back and show me how you healed.”

– Well, how did you come? Ned wants to know.

– Of course they did. Carmi lets out a ring of smoke that floats in the air thirty centimeters from his nose, the bluish, hazy outline of a rose. “Do you want to know what crazy law we have?” he continues. “I can cover the whole person in tattoos. He looks me over carefully from head to toe. – Back. Rear – Karmi closes his eyelids; one might think that he is praying. – Chest. Anything but the face, hands and feet.

Is this written in federal law ? asks Mr. Tomolillo.

Carmi nods.

– Yes, under federal law. There are curtains in the salon,” he points at the dusty blinds in the window. – I will lower them, and I can treat any part of the body. Except the face, hands and feet.

– This is probably because they are visible – I put in.

– Exactly. Take the army, drill. Guys with tattoos don’t look right. Their faces and hands will be conspicuous, they will not be able to hide.

“And yet,” Mr. Tomolillo counters, “this is an infringement of human rights. I think the law is totalitarian. In a democratic country, everyone can decorate themselves as they please. I mean, if a lady decides to put a rose on the back of her hand, then…

“…it’s her right,” Carmi finishes irritably. “People should get what they want, no matter what. A little lady came to me the other day. – Carmi raised his palm one and a half meters from the floor: – Like this. She wanted to have the whole Golgotha on her back, and I did it for her. The work took eighteen hours.

I look doubtfully at the thieves and angels in the picture:

– Haven’t you shortened the plot a bit?

– No.

– Did you remove a single angel? Ned is surprised. – And the foreground is not reduced?

– Nothing, I tell you. Thirty-five dollars for a color work with thieves, angels, and Old English lettering. She left the salon proud as a swan. Not every shorty has all Calvary in full bloom on his back. I can make a tattoo from a photo. I can transfer an exact copy of a movie star to my skin. Anything the clients want. I have some drawings that I do not hang on the wall so as not to offend someone’s feelings. I’ll show you now. Carmi takes the filing cabinet from the table. “My wife needs to put things in order here,” he says, “everything is terribly neglected.

– Does your wife help you? I ask with interest.

– Ah, Laura… She’s in the salon most of the day. – For some unknown reason, Carmi’s voice begins to sound solemn, like a monk at a Sunday service.

What if he uses his wife as an advertisement? Laura, the Tattooed Lady, a living masterpiece, sixteen years in the business. Ladies and gentlemen, there’s not a single white spot on it. Watch and you will want the same.

“Come back often,” he tells us, “she loves company.”

Carmi rummages through the drawers of the file cabinet, but doesn’t get anything out of them… Then suddenly stops searching and freezes like a pointer in a rack.

A tough guy is standing at the door.

– What can I do for you? Carmi takes a step forward, showing who’s boss.

– I want to impale an eagle.

Ned, Mr. Tomolillo and I push against the side walls to let the guy into the middle of the cabin. Even without a uniform – a pea coat and a plaid woolen shirt – it is clear that he is a sailor. His diamond-shaped head with a wide part between the ears tapered upwards, where there was an island of short-cropped hair.

– For nine dollars or fifteen?

– For fifteen.

Mr. Tomolillo sighs in admiration.

The sailor sits down in a chair opposite Carmi’s swivel chair, shakes off his pea coat with a deft movement of his shoulders, unbuttons the left cuff of his shirt and slowly rolls up his sleeve.

“You should come closer,” Carmi tells me in a low, promising voice. “You can see better from here. You haven’t seen how tattoos are done before. Trying to shrink and become smaller, I sit on a box of papers to the left of Carmi in the corner, like a hen on eggs.
