Professional Facility

Wise Owl Family Care is in the process of researching a possible expansion! I have been researching locations and feel that Hickory needs a Professional Facility for Drop-In Child Care! As a family care provider I am limited to 2 children a day in my current home.  If a professional commercial building was acquired we would be able to provide care for parents/guardians in a larger area with many more developmentally appropriate toys.  This allows for the Hickory community to have flexible, last minute care at a wider range of hours throughout the day!

Drop-In Information

I am currently offering drop-in daycare for families.  Drop-In daycare is defined as 4 hours or less with parents/guardians being 15 minutes away.  This service is provided to parents who need to go grocery shopping, have a doctors appointment, have multiple children and want to spend one-on-one time with one child, or who just want to take a nap or have a lunch date! I am centrally located in Hickory which means I am 15 minutes to most restaurants, shopping centers, or theaters.

Rates are as follows:

$7.00/hr/child with a minimum of 2 hours.  
If you have multiple children sibling discounts will be offered.

This is offered in home therefore I request that you call prior to your need of service to ensure availability.  There are State Guidelines for the amount of young children that can be cared for.

Thank you!

Lily having fun with free form art.  We attempt to create daily..  whether it is painting, coloring, or creating art with sidewalk chalk depends on the weather and the mood of the children!

Welcome to Wise Owl Family Care

As of June 2012 I will have 1 opening  at Wise Owl Family Care.

Pricing is as follows:

6weeks-12 months: $200/week

12-18 months: $175/week

18-24 months: $160/week

2-5 years: $150/week

I have a 4:1 ratio and am currently operating inside of my home.  I have 2 children of my own that stay with me.  I like to take the kids to the park, library, science center, and for walks when possible.  I require a release form signed in order to travel with your children.  

Hours of operation are from 7am-5pm unless otherwise arranged.  I am willing to consider part-time care but will need to discuss hours and pay separately.  

I am also wishing to start drop-in care (4 hours or less) when available.  Please email for further information.
