I'm a new mom and am returning to work during early May. I am new to the Allen area and don't know many people yet so I'm hoping this site will have some suggestions for reliable in-home child care. Thank you in advance!

What can I do next?

Hey mama,

Go to this site http://www.childcaregroup.org/Parents/resourcelinks.html and click on the 1st link get childcare now. It let's you search for all kinds of day cares all over dallas. Most of the in home day care ladies I got from this site were great and all certified by the state. Also, a lot of these women are in a large network so you can always ask them if they can recommend someone. If you need more help let me know there are other sites as well as this one. I just went through this whole process a few weeks ago and it was stressful and exhausting. Hope you find a great place!

Try the website care.com. You can go in and post what you are needing, what you can pay, hours etc. Then you will receive responses for ladies that are able to work around your schedule and requirements. The background checks etc have already been done for you as well as the references. The great thing about the site is that it is free and you will receive many many outstanding responses. This website only covers people in your area when you put in your zipcode etc and so you can narrow it down by location. I actualy post on the site because I do part time child care babysitting and pet sitting and it's a great site and it gives both parties the opportunity to only respond to what is going to work for them. I hope this helps.

Try my friend Janice Hawfitch. She is a volunteer in the nursery at my church which I am the assistant director, a pastors wife, and mother of 3 school age children. I also believe you'll find her prices to be very reasonable. ###-###-####

If you end up not finding suitable in home child care, I strongly recommend the Creme de la Creme in Allen. Creme gave me peace of mind when I returned to work.
