Cityscape Dayhome

My name is Khatoon Gulzar and I run my dayhome in cityscape! I have my level 2 certification from CDI college, and have learned a diverse amount of knowledge on child development, health and safety, and organizational skills. While I have learned many skills, I myself am a mother to three kids, I believe children should always get a head start with learning while also having fun, staying safe, and learning things to further their development.

I believe that children should have time for colouring, drawing, free play as they also focus on creativity and problem solving. In my dayhome I emphasize on sensory exploration, crafts, reading, and physical movement for fine motor skills, and various outdoor activities. Children are always treated with respect, care as they are mighty learners that explore in their own ways. I really enjoy what I do, as it’s my passion and I learn so much from the children as they do from me. One of my dayhome attenders moms have given me feedback “I am often working many hours and having my child come to this dayhome has eased my tensions. My child comes home with new stories of what they’ve done for the day and has opportunities to play with the other kids while I am able to work and be more productive with home-hold work. My child has been more happy, and more excited for the next opportunity to come back, I really appreciate all the work Khatoon does to make sure my child is well cared for”. This feedback reflects the morals of my dayhome, to provide safe and enjoyable environment away from home.
