Bubblegum Junction, LLC

Thank you very much for considering us for your childcare needs, it's greatly appreciated. Our home based option for 3-5 year old children who learn best by hands on exploration, field trips and individual creativity expression.

I am very honored and grateful for the time that you are giving me to sway you to choose Bubblegum Junction, LLC over the competition. I hope that you find all the information in this handbook helpful and insightful.

I will start with a little bit about myself, the provider. I’m an Army Vet and now single mom. During my military career the training we received was based around the application of a concept. Children will and innately learn from any and everything they see and experience. They learn wherever they are and this learning is restricted to special learning places.

As an infant and toddler a child’s expectations and needs are different, and even more so as they become preschoolers. Children gather and access at their level of understanding and Bubblegum Junction, LLC caters to that by providing experiences in active situations and outings. Field trips to aquariums, libraries, restaurants, parks and events. Activities that include the entire process of growing and caring for a plant, microscope observations, messy Monday crafts, outdoor and indoor team building games and individual interest’s simulation. Curriculum that accommodates children where they are in their intellectual progress. This age frame is detrimental to a child’s future growth and development when they’re school age.

So through my empathy for my own child’s restrictive environments and research I found that her needs weren’t being met. Fulfilling a child’s longing for 1-on-1 attention and mental simulation beyond free play so that their confidence to say, do and progress are nurtured on a daily basis became my mission. My personal journey started with weekend trips to the zoo, aquarium, library, pet shops, circus, etc. My daughter would talk about the trips for days as if we’d just gone. She would light up whenever she saw and experienced such wonders and for her they was the best!

I saw how much more receptive she was from actively doing, experiencing and seeing things first hand. I decided I wanted this for her on a consistent basis. The direct individual attention, exploratory learning, field trips and experiences that she could remember!
