About the Sun and Moon 24/7...

Sun and Moon 24/7 is a private, unlicensed (and unsubsidized) family dayhome located in the community of Forest Heights in Southeast Calgary, AB.
We are located on Memorial Drive at 44 Street SE, walking distance to Keeler Elementary School. Please scroll down to see a map of our location.

Do you work nights or shifts, or do you go to school, sometimes with "odd" class times? Find it hard to find child care for "off-hours"? My name is Wendy. Call me.

I am a mother of four (7 year old daughter and 11 year old son --the other two are older teens) --and a soon-to-be grandmother-- with a fiance and a mild-mannered cat. I'm CPR and First Aid Certified, as are my fiance and my 11 year old. I am in the process of obtaining my Child Development Assistant (formerly Level 1 Child Care Orientation) and expect to have it completed before the Spring.
We are non-religious, non-smokers, non-spankers, and former homeschoolers.
I have a fenced back yard and live near several playgrounds, as well as the Forest Lawn Library and Marlborough Mall.
I will provide receipts and, upon request, weekly written reports as to your child's time with me.

I offer 24 hour/day, 7 day/week, full-time, part-time and drop-in care.

Care is available on Statutory Holidays (at higher rates) with appropriate notice, provided I have space..

Meals and snacks are included but parents must provide special dietary items, including formula, baby food, etc.
Other things that parents must provide include:
     *diapers or Pull-Ups, wipes, creams and wipeable change pad(s). Please label all with your child's name and last initial.
     *one complete set of clothes (labeled, please!) , to be left at the dayhome or brought every day.
     *a toothbrush, labelled please. We brush our teeth after snacks and lunch.
     *I serve my children 2% milk. If your child requires Homogenized, you must provide it. I will not serve Skim milk to any child. I serve water at one snack and have it available during the day. I serve juice at one snack and milk at lunch.
     *a brush and/or comb, labeled. I don't like lice and neither do kids.
     *if your child naps, please send a favourite blanket and/or cuddly toy to be left at the dayhome or brought every day. Having a familiar item or items at nap time will make the transition much more comfortable for your child (and for me!).
     *Please don't send your child in clothes that are not meant to be dirtied. Children (and some adults) play and get dirty. I encourage this. DO send weather-appropriate outerwear and footwear. Indoor shoes or slippers are not necessary, but you can send them if you like, and I will do my best to see that your child wears them. We wear socks or bare feet. It's more comfortable.
     *Neither my home, nor the people in it are nut-free. :)

*****I REQUIRE A NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT PAID IN CASH PRIOR TO THE FIRST DAY OF CARE IN ORDER TO HOLD YOUR CHILD'S SPOT. PLEASE SEE THE FEES PAGE FOR DETAILS*****

Fees may be paid monthly (on or before the first day of care in the month), every two weeks (on or before the beginning of the first and third weeks of care in the month), or weekly. I accept cash and cheques, however if you pay by cheque I require payment on the Monday, to give the payment time to clear before the weekend. NO POST-DATED CHEQUES. $50 will be charged for each NSF cheque, and after three NSF, I will only accept cash.
