All about Miss Nicole
My whole life
has been mainly been consumed by 3 things: My husband, my children,
and providing childcare. I started to provide childcare at 12 yrs of
age and have never looked back. I met my husband when I was 13 years
old and have been together for many years now. My daughters are my
greatest gifts.
My husband and I have been
married for over 17 years. I always say my husband and I are on a
marry-go-round of a marriage. We have our ups and our downs but we
never stop.
My beautiful daughters are
16 and 13 years old. They are turning into amazing young women.
My 16 year has a kind and caring heart which seems to be leading her into
the direction of joining the military. She wants to be in a career
where she will be helping others, either as a military police officer or
medic. My 13 year old is such a gentile and caring teen. Her passion
is dancing. My daughters are very active in sports and it keeps me
wearing my chauffeur hat 4 evenings a week and most of the weekend.
Nicole's Tot-Time Daycare
was initially opened so that I was able to stay at home with my daughters
and them having playmates to fill our day. Tot-Time Daycare stayed
open because I love working from home.
Like many childcare
providers who open their home daycares to be at home with their children, I
always said I would work outside of the home when both my girls were in
school full time. I prepared myself for that day, I reduced my daycare
to before and after school childcare and took my ECE through distance
Education. I graduated ECE in 2 years with honours. After
graduating I closed down daycare and began working outside of the home.
I quickly discovered that working outside of the home was not for me.
Within 1 year, I re-opened daycare.
Retirement for my husband
and I is not too far in the future, our goal is to retire within 4 - 7
years. At that point we will both have been in our chosen careers for
over 20 years.
