"In this business, you must keep a servant’s heart and mindset at all times!"**CHILD CARE PROFESSIONAL TESTIMONIAL**The best part of working with Ms. Kathleen was her honesty and her knowledge of what was needed when it came to getting my daycare in order. I called her for some insight and she openly offered to assist me immediately. She first asked me questions as to where I was in the process and what had I already accomplished. She asked me pertinent questions and little did I know she was setting me up for success. She had some extra supplies at her daycare that she had at the time. She set an appointment with me and she traveled to my in-home daycare and when she arrived she came bearing gifts. Ms. Kathleen came right in looking over my entire house to assure that I would meet state regulations. She was precise and very particular. She gave me valid suggestions and opinions that would benefit me in my daycare business. She made sure I had all of the things I needed to be posted on my board and she also assisted me with some rearranging of things in my daycare. Before her departure, she assured that all things were set and in place. When the state came, they were impressed with how things were set up and how I had everything in order that was needed to pass my inspection. Once the state completed their checklist with me, I was set to open immediately. That meant that everything that was needed to be done was done and I received my license. Ms. Kathleen did not have to give me any parenting tips for my personal use but she did give some tips as to how to handle parents of the children that would be in my care. She expressed that being a daycare provider/owner is like being a mother in the shoe. She expressed that our duty is to love and love unconditionally. The children that we will provide care to in our facilities and homes are products of their environments and whatever that is, it's not their fault either way. She always showed her concerns for not only her enrolled children but for their extended families as well. Other childcare owners and providers should connect with Ms. Kathleen because she has the experience and knowledge under her belt. She has a proven track record of success from the ownership of daycare facilities that shows she knows her stuff. She has always been very involved in her businesses and staff. She treats everyone fairly and is a faithful guide in leadership and business etiquette.
