Kim Young, 54, who is the licensed childcare practitioner at Young Family Childcare, may be opening a new daycare, but she is not new to this business.
“I was a licensed childcare provider in the late 80’s and into the 90’s, when my children were younger," said Young. "Then, when all my kids started school I went to work with the elderly and the handicapped as a nurses aide. Now, that I am a grandparent I‘ve realized how much I‘ve missed caring for the little ones,” she added.
Young says she wants to provide a safe, comfortable, learning environment for children from the age of 6 weeks to about 5 years of age, and her home holds a capacity of six children at one time. She will also accept subsidy-eligible children at her daycare.
Unlike many daycares, Young Family Childcare will be open during nights and weekends. Young wants to keep her availability as open as possible. Snacks and meals will be provided if needed, but parents can send food for their children, too, especially if they have an infant. Parents of infants will need to sign a form that states the child’s special food needs and provide the formula and baby food.
The pricing is comparable to other childcare providers. If interested in pricing and availability, call Kimberly Young at (724) 348-8989.
Young enjoys her job as a childcare provider, but also takes it seriously.
“This is my career choice. I am not just a babysitter,” Young said.
