My name is Jessica and I am the owner and Director of Smart Cookies Childcare of Gardner Massachusetts. I'd like to first say thank you for taking the time to review my program and to congratulate you on taking these first steps towards an early childhood education for your child.
I have worked in early childhood programs for over a decade. Over the years I have earned my Bachelor's degree of science in Sociology with a concentration in Early Childhood foundations. Through my journey working with children I have worked my way up from an assistant, to a teacher, a Lead Teacher, a Director and finally an owner of my own business. I have taken all of my knowledge from years of experience and created a program that parents will feel good about. Being a parent myself, I can relate and understand parents wants and needs. I am a true believer that children thrive best when their parents as well as other caregivers work together in their child's education. I understand how difficult it can be to find a safe, nurturing and home like program. I treat children with the same loving care as i would want someone to treat my own child. Parents will not have to worry about their child not getting the individual love and attention they need . In large centers children can get lost in the mix as teachers have so many children to care for. My program is much smaller and more like a home and many children need that. I encourage all families to please call or message me for a tour so I can show you first hand what our program has to offer!
