Chapel Family Child Care
3315 Valley View Rd, Bethlehem, PA 18020
Hi, my name is Sherri and I have been caring for children in my home for 17 years. I have been a licensed in-home childcare provider for 10 years. I have cared for many children over the years. They come to me as infants/toddlers and I get to watch them grow into independent little preschoolers. We have a laid-back atmosphere and the children enjoy our home as if it were theirs. It is a very clean, child safe environment.
I am more than just a babysitter. I want to be someone parents could count on being there when they needed quality care for their children. I am always continuing my education by attending workshops and seminars intended for childcare providers. Myself and everyone living in the home have to go through rigorous criminal background checks / child abuse checks, fire inspections, and health department inspections before receiving a State Child Care registration/license. Everyone living in the home must also have a physical. I am re-licensed every two years. This requires a new application and a physical exam. A visit from a licensing specialist happens randomly.
Being a mom, I know how difficult and uncertain finding childcare for your child can be. Ask lots of questions and never be afraid to speak up! I know your child will love it here!
