Welcome!! My name is Karie-Anne Hawthorne, I am a mother of 2 and am excited to introduce you to my licensed, home-based day care. I believe children learn best through play and games. I want children in my care to have fun, and while they are having fun, I will make sure they are safe, happy and respectful of the other children. My day care is a positive and safe environment and will give the children the opportunity to grow socially, emotionally, physically, and intellectually. As a mother myself, I know there is a huge responsibility to bestow upon someone else to look after your child. I take that responsibility seriously and will treat your children like they are my own. Your child will have the opportunities to learn, be creative, play sports, play games, explore, make friends, and have fun!
