ABOUT
My name is Lisa. I am a mom and grandma, and I have been caring for children in my home for over 25 years. I believe that every child is a treasure, and I want them to spend the time they are in my care knowing that they are valued beyond belief. I work to make each child feel welcome and feel good being here. As the owner of Tender Oaks Child Care, I care for children of all ages, including infants, preschoolers, and elementary aged kids, and have experience caring for various special needs and circumstances as well. I do my best to teach them about the world and build strong social skills and values through age-appropriate play, crafts, and activities. I strive to provide a safe and welcoming learning environment that will encourage growth and healthy, happy children. I am committed to creating a warm, stimulating, and safe environment for children to grow and learn to help set them up for a lifetime of success.
Services
Home & Family
Tender Oaks Child Care offers a home and family childcare experience as a licensed Family Day Home. Any child who attends enjoys the benefits of being a in a small group in a home environment. Because these settings are small, a significant time can be spent with each child so you can be confident that your child will receive all the attention and friendly care that they need.
Learn & Grow
Each child develops at their own pace, but there is a consistent pattern to their growth and development. Having a good understanding of child development gives me the ability to be able to aid your children more effectively and to encourage their growth. As your child grows, so will their physical appearance, physical ability, cerebral processes, language skills, and perspective. What they do to cope with their emotions and how they interact with others are important aspects of their learning phase. It is critical to provide a firm foundation for your children's future success during their formative years, while they are still working hard to achieve each developmental milestone. Inspiring their development is what I do to help your child accomplish their goals and learn vital skills.
Health & Safety
Tender Oaks Child Care is committed to the health and safety of all children entrusted to us and always observe good hygiene practices. Germs can survive and spread on dirty toys, furniture, blankets, cooking utensils, and any other surface so our goal is to prevent the spread of those germs. All toys and surfaces are sanitized daily. Children are always supervised and outdoor play areas are fenced. All child areas have been inspected and meet state safety standards. All caregivers have received pediatric first aid training and are CPR certified.
Cooking & Nutrition
Healthy eating habits could provide lifelong advantages for children, including optimal growth and development. Regular consumption of nutritious meals will make children more attentive and engaged, which in turn enhances their ability to focus and learn. Young people are better prepared to make healthy food choices throughout their lives if they are exposed to the joy of healthy eating. Adequate nutrition, including a sugar-restricted diet, is essential for the growth of strong bones, teeth, and muscles. Children who eat well are healthier overall and better able to engage in academics, extracurricular activities, and interpersonal relationships. Following USDA guidelines, reducing sugar intake and placing an emphasis on a diversified diet are two of the main tenets of our approach to providing healthy food throughout the day.
The Tender Oaks Child Care Parent Corner page is packed with useful links and information that can help in making your life a little easier. The purpose of this parent corner section is to update parents on recent events and offer parents helpful links to useful resources. Our open-door parent-corner approach means you're welcome to information at any time. Trust and communication are the keys to maintaining a healthy connection between parents and the childcare provider. Tender Oaks Child Care makes it a priority to always put the child's best interests first. Our parent corner program emphasizes the significance of the responsibility of all of us to work together for the best home and childcare environment for each of our children.

Every family should prioritize the success of their children, and it is our goal to ensure that all families can afford high-quality child care. As a vendor for the state child care subsidy, I am able to offer financial assistance to those who qualify. I am happy to respond quickly to your inquiry, provide you with the information you need, and answer any questions you may have. With such a low student-teacher ratio, you can be confident that your child will receive the individual attention and strong interactions required for healthy growth and development.
