Affordable Portuguese immersion in home childcare: NOW ENROLLING!!
Hello, my name is Karla Normington. I am from Brasil and live in Portland since June, 2007. In the past I have worked as an assistant in a daycare and Nanny. I have great references. These responsibilities included:
* Supervision of infants, toddlers, and school age children
* Planning and implementing creative activities
* Setting up play dates
* Driving children to and from school and other activities
* Providing a safe, healthy, and nurturing environment
* Attending to physical and emotional needs of children
* Helping children with daily routines such as toileting, dressing, eating, bathing and sleeping
*Cooking healthy Brazilian/American meals
After working for years as a Nanny I decided to open my in home day care that will be running for me . The day care will offer full- and part-time enrollment. . We are a full Portuguese immersion program. All meals and snacks will be included (I will provide healthy made from scratch food for the children everyday), as well a detailed curriculum outlines each week, periodic assessment of your child's development and photos to document your child's experiences away from home. The environment is safe, clean, friendly, and inviting!
There is a large indoor and outdoor play area full of toys to increase their thinking skills.
The toys I have are all educational crafts, puzzles, books, games, toys, etc. So even as the kids are playing, they are learning.
My goal is to provide a loving, happy, educational and safe environment for children. I strive to enrich each child with a love of learning, positive self-image, and a sense of creativity and imagination. I hope to create a nurturing environment to promote creativity! I try to recognize teachable moments throughout a daily schedule. I incorporate music, art, and stories in a daily routine! The first language spoken in our day care is Portuguese. We will bring and teach Brazilian culture without losing the American. Our goal is to teach both cultures showing the differences/commonalities between the two Countries. My Mom is a Portuguese teacher in Brasil and she is sending me a lot of materials so I can use here with the kids.
Our programs balance child-initiated and activities, nutritious meals, snacks, rest time and outdoor/indoor play.
Our Philosophy:
We believe:
• Children are competent, capable and have unlimited potential;
• Children benefit from both routine and spontaneity, self-initiated play and teacher planned activities;
• Children construct their own understanding of concepts, based on their world as well as interactions with adults;
• Children need opportunities to make meaningful choices within clear boundaries;
• Children grow though collaboration, community and being treated as individuals with strengths interests and needs.
Our process:
• Creativity;
• Self-Expression;
• Hands on activities;
• Sensory Oriented activities.
Our Environment:
• Space are designed for children’s needs;
• Highest standards of cleanliness and safety;
• Soft spaces and warm atmosphere
We feature:
• Art/Music
• Language development
• Multicultural activities
• Field trips
• Contact with nature
• Body exercise
• Portuguese language instruction
• A year-round, all-weather outdoor play area
• Flexible and affordable full-day schedules
• Nutritious meals and snacks

LOOOKING FOR FAMILY TO NANNY-SHARE
My husband and I are looking for another family to do a nanny share with starting in July (ideally after 4th of July weekend). It will be for my son who is currently nearly 3 months old, born February 28th, and would love to find a baby in the same age range so they can grow and develop together.
We will be needing a full time nanny, M-F 9AM-5PM. It would be great to have another family also needing full time care, but we're open to other arrangements as well. We live in the Mt. Tabor neighborhood in SE Portland and would love to find another family near the area. Our house is decent-sized with a full finished basement where the babies could play. My husband works from home and will be available to check-in on the nanny and babies throughout the day. We are also open to sharing homes by day/week - whatever works for everyone. We have a very friendly dog, and a healthy non-smoking and fun environment.
We are looking for a good family fit and ideally would like to find the family first so that we can search for a nanny together. However, I'm keeping my eyes open for nannies currently as well since time is running short!
Please email me if interested! zkopetti@gmail.com
I look forward to hearing from you.
