Hi!  I'm a new mother to a beautiful daughter and will have to leave her to go back to work on december 7th which I'm not looking forward to at all.  I am needing to find a daycare..in home is cheaper than a facility...and am having troubles locating one that I can trust.  I want someone who will be there for her, teach her as if I would if I could stay home with her, support her, and care for her.  I'm looking for someone who I can trust to do well.  Can one of you wonderful mom's provide me with any information, I live in des moines and would prefer to stay within des moines area meaning I'll venture to our surrounding suburbs but not like Johnston, altoona, ankeny areas.  Any advise would be greatly appretiated, thanks!

Hi, alonsdale. I am a stay-at-home mom. This is at a great sacrafice to our finances. But, like you, want to do all things for my kids. Unfortunately, I am recently divorced and need to supplement my income. I want to take care of a child to help me stay home.  I am not looking to make a business out of thisand therefore am not taking in more than one child. I have lots of expperience with young children, have been out of the work force for 9 years. My 2 year old and I are home alone most of the day. I take my older boys(7 and 5)  to school in the morning and pick them up at 3. I have a van and a car seat. I can even pick up your baby. I 'm looking to charge less than most providers I've seen, live in Beaverdale, and have negotiable hours. I understand the need to work and the drive to stay home. I love staying home with my kids. They are fascinating people. I will be as careful with your child as I am with my own.
