Welcome Parents and Caregivers,
The Literacy Nanny, best known as The Lit. Nanny, is here to assist you in caring for your child’s literacy journey. We take the guesswork out of deciding what next steps you should take to nurture your child’s literacy needs, so that you can spend less time asking, “How should I go about this?” and spend more time enjoying all of your child’s literacy milestones. No matter where your child is in their journey- from chewing on board books to starting those chapter books or novels- our valued resources, services, and programs will equip both of you with the clarity, confidence, support, and guidance you need to make the days memorable and rewarding. We don’t want you to miss out! Take a look at what The Lit. Nanny has provided for so many families and can provide for you and your child too!
“Reading should not be presented to children as a chore or duty. It should be offered to them as a precious gift. ”
Nurturing Literacy,
One Home At A Time.
Home is where we give our children roots and wings. We want to be one of your home’s cherished resources as you help your child grow roots in the wonder and power of words, stories, books, reading, and all things literacy. We will guide you with strategies and support, cultivate your child’s growing love for literacy, and help with any struggles that come up along the way.
Fresh ideas, inspiration, and tips for encouraging literacy in your home and nurturing a warm and meaningful relationship with your child.
“I Don’t Know What I Want To Read!”
You know how important it is to build a culture of reading at home. You enjoy read-alouds together. You visit the library frequently. The kids have shelves of books and a cozy book corner. And then one day your independent reader lets out a sigh and groans, “I don’t know what I want to read…” There are plenty of books around though. They could pick any one of them to read independently. So what gives?
A Sneaky Way To Find Some Quiet
It’s been a busy and noisy day. You need to find some peace and quiet and a little alone time. I know that feeling all too well.
While I am all about modeling and sharing ways to connect with our children, I also know that taking short breaks from our kiddos is a good thing. We need these breaks to relax, recharge, and reset.
Hide And Seek With Letters, Sounds, And Sight Words!
So many children of all ages still enjoy the thrill of a good game of “Hide and Seek.” If your child is one of them, I’m going to show you a fun and engaging way to weave literacy into your child’s day by throwing some letters, sight words, or vocabulary words into the mix of this popular game. Both of my boys learned quite a bit playing this version of the game.
