Does Oak Valley Kids focus on a particular age group?
Our primary focus is on the younger children looking for care, those 3 and under. There are many child care and educational opportunities for little ones over 3 years, but because of staff:child ratios or caregiver preference, the options for infants and toddlers are harder to come by. Many providers, centers and home care settings, think that the little ones are “easy” and there’s really not much to do with them or teach them. I see these little ones as an clean slate! They want to know and do SO much and the provider just has to be in the right place at the right time to introduce them to a new experience. We can and are licensed to provide care for children of all ages and would never turn a child away, but our setting and material may not be age appropriate for older children.
