Our program
At Cuerny Kids, I offer a comprehensive childcare experience in a warm, nurturing in-home setting. I provide age-appropriate activities that include science, math, art, sensory exploration, and outdoor play. It is important to me that each child has the freedom to express themselves and explore the world around them in a fun, loving, and accepting environment.
Lessons
At Cuerny Kids, I create my own lesson plans- something I’ve done throughout my years of teaching and truly love. Each week is thoughtfully planned using lessons I’ve developed over time, and tailored to the unique skill levels and interests of the children in the class.
I intentionally incorporate sensory play, number sense, letter recognition, and both gross and fine motor development into every week’s activities. My goal is always to create learning experiences that feel engaging, hands-on, and developmentally appropriate — while still being fun and meaningful for the kids.
During Free Play, children are encouraged to explore toys, puzzles, art supplies, books, and instruments at their own pace. I also provide themed coloring sheets, manipulatives, and books to spark creativity and learning.
Circle Time is a teacher-led activity where we gather to read a book related to the weekly theme and dive deeper into our topic through discussion. During this time, we also practice shapes, numbers, letters, and reflect on our day so far!
