This is my Auntie Judelyn’s house. It is located at 3113 El Paseo Alameda in Bay Farm. This is a big house and it has a second floor. I mainly focus on the first floor to design an ECE environment. I chose this house because it has an enormous space to transform into family child care center. This house will be great where children can do various activities, feel comfortable and freely to explore in certain learning centers.
Evaluation There are a lot of elements that would currently work for a family child care center. As you walk into the house, there are three windows. There are two windows located at the living room and these two windows are closeby to the yard, which is great. There is a natural light and it will make the children be able to view the yard. The other window located at the cooking area, which is also good, so that children can view the outside environment while they are cooking and eating. The floor is made of tiles. Tile floors have the advantage of being very easy to appear clean and can be polished well. There are three big carpets that are set up or lad in the floor, which are located in the living room, cooking area and dining room. Carpet has the advantage where it make the floor a little softer to sit on and for children to play or do activities. Carpet can be useful for seating areas like circle time, blocks and many more.

I did my placement at the Halifax Street Children Centre & Preschool. It is for children from only months old up till five years of age, just before leaving for school. I worked in the baby room which was children under the age of two. I chose the career as in my effort to find a placement I found out that I couldn’t work in a hospital so I had to come up with something else. I have always wanted to work with children and I really like the idea of paediatrics, so that’s when I decided to try out childcares. The methods that worked best for me was to be organised and always be in contact with the company before the week. The methods that didn’t work was not asking enough questions before the placement. Some things were still a surprise when
