Family Child Care Provider

Hello! I'm Taylor, the owner and provider at The Little Village Family Child Care.

 

As a mother and military spouse, I understand firsthand the difficulties and unique challenges that come with balancing the demands of military life and motherhood. The constant deployments, relocations, and the absence of a traditional support system can leave us feeling isolated and overwhelmed. It was during my own journey as a military spouse and mother that I truly understood the meaning of "it takes a village to raise a child". When my husband unexpectedly deployed after having just moved to a foreign country where I started a new job, was going to school and taking care of my 4 year old, I felt completely alone.

 

This is what lead me to become a family child care provider, so that I could be a small part of the village that every parent needs and deserves. With a passion for early childhood education, and providing children with a nurturing and loving environment, I founded The Little Village to offer children a home away from home where they can learn and grow, while giving parents the peace of mind to focus on work or take a much deserved break. I have worked in the early childhood education field since 2019 and am proud to have received the family child care provider of the year award of 2023 in Misawa Air Base Japan.

 

I believe that every child deserves the highest quality care and education, and I am so excited to be a part of their journey.
