Great Design Ideas For Home Daycare Spaces


 Picking the best decor for your daycare is critical to enjoying your space everyday while you work. Making the walls bright and cheerful can help invite the kids into a comforting environment and let them get comfortable with you in your home. 

You can choose to go the educational route and make the space look like school or keep it basic and just add splashes of colour. It all depends on your style of childcare and how you teach. 

This is a great article on interior design ideas to choose for a kids setting or bedroom. 

You can choose to incorporate animals, famous characters in stories and tv shows, colours of the rainbow, and even have themed areas throughout the rooms to give a different vibe through every door. 

You can be completely neutral through the home or create designs based on both genders. So whether you are designing a girls bedroom or decorating a boys bedroom or combining the best of both worlds there are so many excellent ideas.

Adding sensory walls and features throughout each space is an essential way to encourage stimulation, regulation, and creativity. You can find amazing sensory items like this sequin mat, these awesome swings, and these cool water tubes for kids of all ages. 






Plenty of toys is a must and keeping them sturdy and educational is always a great idea. We created a large list of our favourite toys that have lasted over the years and continue to be favourites for kids of all ages.

You could get wild with stickers and glitter as well but we stayed simple. To create yours follow the instructions 👇  You will need: Card-stock or paper (printer for the template) Glue Scissors Decorations, markers, paint, etc. 1. Begin by printing out your backpack templates. You can always make the first one for yourself to keep as an example of what you’re making so older kids can try to cut and follow along as well. It always helps to hold onto one for future reference and keep it safe for next year w...

HOW TO TEACH YOUR CHILDREN TO HANDLE EMERGENCIES WITHOUT SCARING THE BLEEP OUT OF THEM

Discussing possible emergency scenarios with one’s children is never a pleasant topic. Parents do not want to frighten them or create new anxieties . Dr. Sanam Hafeez is a New York City based Neuro-psychologist and School Psychologist who has an approach to emergency preparedness that won’t freak your children out. Tell children an emergency is something unusual that happens which could hurt people, or cause damage to things like houses and cars.  Explain to them that nature sometimes provides ‘too much of something’ like, rain, wind or snow.
