Welcome to Kel's Kapers Family Day Care

With over 15 years of experience in early childhood education, I am a dedicated and passionate educator committed to fostering children's curiosity, independence, and holistic development. My journey in early learning has been shaped by my deep belief that children learn best through play-based, hands-on experiences, supported by thoughtful scaffolding and meaningful relationships.

Throughout my career, I have worked within long day care as an educator as well as a cook.  I was excited when the opportunity to open my own Family Day Care become available.  

Within Family Day Care, I create an inclusive and nurturing learning environment tailored to each child's unique needs.  My practice is guided by the Early Years Learning Framework, with a strong focus on intentional teaching, child-led exploration, and collaboration with families to support children's development.

Beyond my work with children, I am passionate about building strong partnerships with families and the broader community, ensuring that every child feels valued, supported, and empowered in their learning journey.
