Vern Murphy
Owner/Educator
Welcome to Caterpillars 2 Butterflies Daycare, my name is Vern Murphy. I'd like to share a little about myself and my business.
I have over 10 years of experience with the care of children starting with babysitting as a teenager and later raising 2 children of my own, along with 4 beautiful grandchildren. I also, have experience working with Special needs children in the area of premature care.
Our Mission at Caterpillars 2 Butterflies:
Caterpillars 2 Butterflies is a childcare/preschool which puts children as the primary reason that, out of Love, we help children to develop their self-respect for themselves and others. We help children build their self-esteem and strive to develop their own unique abilities. We at Caterpillars 2 Butterflies, celebrate the whole child, family and the community.
We at Caterpillars 2 Butterflies enjoy watching children grow and develop. We believe that parent/provider communication is the key to a successful childcare relationship; beyond communication comes the safety, health and a loving home-like environment for all children where they can learn and grow on a daily basis.
