Childcare Reno – Choosing The Best One For You And Your Child « Day Care Reno | Day Care Reno NV

Which Daycare in Reno should you choose?

If you want to find the right daycare center for your child, it will be a good idea for you to start looking early and look at some critical elements that can determine whether a place is right for you and your child or not.daycare in reno

You may not be able to afford the very best childcare that doesn’t mean that you can’t find a really good daycare center for your child to learn and play in.

What does it feel like?

A good day care will be a place that feels like you and your child are welcome there. If you can get names and numbers of other parents, ask them what they think of the center, or if you see any during your visit ask them their opinion of the daycare.

Chances are, a daycare center that is not making a lot of other parents happy may not be the best choice for you either.

What will your child learn at the daycare center?

Another important thing to look at will be the learning environment in the day care of your choosing. An institution where watching television all day with little or no other stimulation is not going to be a great fit for your child.

You want a good mix between playtime and healthy activities that will stimulate your child and encourage him/her to learn while in the presence of a caregiver. Watching television all day is not learning, and will not benefit you or your child.

What are the staff members like?

You will want a great mix between highly qualified and very caring when choosing a daycare provider. Watching how they act around the other children is essential in finding a child care center that provides safe, quality care for your little one.

You also want to make sure all state guidelines are being met by the institution. Ratios set forth by NAEYC will determine how many caregivers need to be present for a given number of children, according to group size and ages.

Licensing:

Ask to see the operating license for the daycare center, and be sure to check the NAEYC database (search the database here) to see if they institution has passed quality assurance. Also, check to make sure the daycare has met all health and safety requirements for your state.

You will want to choose a daycare that is right for you and your child, but there is not any one surefire way to find the best place. Using common sense and your parental instincts while searching for a good daycare will be vital to making your final decision.

I agree. Finding a good childcare center is really hard for many parent.s

Wrote OTiSgotERsprUNg, "Teen Nick won on so many levels last night #iaintlyin"

Added MsFPierre Fabs, "Could barely wake up this morning effin around with teen nick & their 90s shows last night smh"

DeeRichie: "I see ima have to take a nap today so I can stay up & watch Teen Nick tonight lol,"

MissDimplez: "This new-old Teen Nick programming is a smart move by @NickCannon."

MeronERITREA: "I blame Teen Nick for my lack of sleep! I felt like it was the 90's again!"

MiZZkARRiBABY: "Gm sleep like a happy kid cause i woke watching all my old shows tv still on teen nick."

ieppenbaugh: "Considering how tired I am, was it worth staying up super late to watch Nickelodeon's Teen Nick programming? Absolutely."

LizzQuest Elizabeth J.: "Teen Nick was #AMAZING last night that's when tv was good...can't wait til they start airing new Hey Arnold episodes :))"

missnaturalle: "I stayed up until 2 last night when I usually go to bed at 12. I'm recording Teen Nick tonight lol"

As of Tuesday morning, Doug has been the No. 1 Google trend, and Kenan & Kel and Teen Nick were trending on Twitter.

In announcing the decision to rebroadcast the shows, Keith Dawkins, senior VP and general manager of TeenNick, said earlier: "At the time, we were completely devoted to that audience ages 9, 10, and 11. It was ground-breaking and for the young viewers, a powerful and pivotal time in their lives. Those kids who are now 22, 23 and 24 want to bring that back.”

Going forward, the network will air '90s reruns from 12 a.m. EST to 4 a.m. ET from Monday to Sunday in a block called "The 90s Are All That." Shows include Doug, The Adventures of Pete & Pete, All That, Clarissa Explains it All, Double Dare, The Ren & Stimpy Show and Salute Your Shorts.

Actress Mila Kunis had the odd task of choosing her own butt double for her latest movie "Friends With Benefits" after telling director Will Gluck that her derrière was off limits.

Bing: Timberlake and Kunis to attend Marine ball

The star agreed to get naked opposite Justin Timberlake for the saucy new movie, but insisted the camera could only capture a little "side boob" and no backside.

In an interview with Ryan Seacrest on his Kiss FM radio show, she said, "These young ladies came in and they were in a casting room and I was there with the director and the casting director and my makeup artist were there. And these lovely women had to show us their derrières and we chose the one that resembled my body the most without looking like it's fake."

    This entire list happened accidentally, after a discussion over exactly how many Canadian Football Teams are nicknamed the "Rough Riders" led me to Googling that phrase... which led me to the first entry on this list... which led to the entire list. (There were originally two, by the way. Now there is one.)

    Sometimes an equipment manager sews the letters onto a jersey incorrectly, and sometimes a company prints a jersey wrong. But in either case, as long as someone caught a photo, that error can live on in Internet infamy. Here are 11 great spelling errors on sports jerseys and apparel.

    Tips For Getting A Good Tattoo in Reno – Avoid These Mistakes and Love Your Tattoo

    Edit 0

    If you live in Reno and plan on getting a tattoo, you should look at this checklist before you go in to get what could be a permanent mistake on your skin. It seems that for the most part, terrible drunken tattoos may still happen now and then but probably not as often.

    So, whether you are new to tattoos or you are a veteran, these simple tips should be in your memory bank just in case you find yourself in the middle of an after-school special… getting a tattoo because the cool kids got one.

     

     

    Tattoo Mistakes – How To Avoid Them

    By Gustavo Gomez

    Every day, thousands of new tattoos are completed, but unfortunately for many people their tattoo does not meet their expectations. And while it’s possible to make a tattoo fade using laser removal technology, it’s time consuming, costly and painful. So here’s how to avoid the most common mistakes that people make with tattoos.

    1) Never Agree To Get A Tattoo When You’re In The Wrong State Of Mind

    Getting a tattoo when you’re in the wrong frame of mind is a shortcut to disaster.

    So don’t even think about getting tattooed when you’re drunk, depressed or under pressure (it’s not a good enough reason just because all your friends are getting one, or have got one). And don’t get a tattoo done on a whim.

    You know it’s a whim when you find yourself in a tattoo studio and you hadn’t even considered getting a tattoo the night before!

    It’s good to be spontaneous, but not with something that will last you the rest of your life. So before you get a tattoo, always ask yourself “Do I want to get this tattoo?”

    And keep asking yourself that question every day for a fortnight. And only after you genuinely answer yes every day, do you go anywhere near a tattoo parlour.

    2) Choose The Right Design

    Choosing the right design is absolutely vital to the amount of pleasure you get from your tattoo.

    Let’s face it, if you want a dragon, you won’t be happy with a flower design. And if you want a large tattoo, you wo

    Too true! I hate bad tattoos, and i wish I could see less of them.

    'Cash Cab' hits, kills Vancouver pedestrian
    July 17, 2011, 10:18 AM EST

    VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) -- A pedestrian has died in Vancouver after being hit by a fake taxi that had just completed filming a segment for the cable TV game show "Cash Cab."

    Find: 'Cash Cab' clips

    Vancouver Police said the 61-year-old man died in a hospital shortly after being struck by the replica yellow cab late Friday night. Police did not immediately release the victim's identity.

    Andrew Burnstein, president of the show's production company, says the accident happened as a producer was driving the mock cab back to a storage facility after filming a segment for the Canadian version of the game show.

    On "Cash Cab," broadcast in North America on the Discovery Channel, unsuspecting people who flag down the replica yellow taxi become instant contestants on a game show, answering trivia questions for cash prizes.

    Pizza Reno - Where To Get The Best Pizza In Reno NV

    Edit 0

    Everytime I go out to pizza in Reno, I have that nagging thought in my brain that I am eating a bunch of fat, grease and other things that aren’t really that great for me.

    However, I love my pizza, so I just shut that voice up and keep stuffing my face like most people do. Besides, every single time I have tried any “low calorie” pizza anywhere, I’ve always regretted it in some way (heartburn, dissatisfaction…) so looking for a healthy alternative to a greasy piece of pizza is always on my mind.

    I still love getting the really good takeout or dine-in stuff, but sometimes I just want to make my own pizza, and I want it to taste good.

    Welcome to my Tanning Reno NV lens, I'm glad you found me. I wanted you to find me when you typed in something like tanning Reno so I made this lens so that you could find me while looking for a tanning salon in the Reno NV area.

    I want to talk a little bit about tanning, and recommend a local tanning salon in Reno that you can go to if you are looking for that golden (hopefully not orange) summer look.

    Indoor tanning is becoming more popular these days with increased information coming out on the potential dangers of sun over-exposure. Indoor tanning methods are also catching on as reality TV stars take to our TV screens looking over-tanned and greased up, some folks simply want to look like their favorite personality.

    Whatever a persons reason is for wanting tanned skin, whether lighter skinned people just want to be darker, or whether someone just feels more healthy with a bit of color on them. Either way, let's take a look at some types of popular tanning and see if we can find a tanning salon that has tanning Reno in a great atmosphere at a reasonable value.

    Federal Government Rules Marijuana Has No Accepted Medical Purpose

    Federal Government Rules Marijuana Has No Accepted Medical Purpose

    Marijuana

    First Posted: 7/9/11 03:03 PM ET Updated: 7/11/11 08:23 AM ET

    The federal government ruled on Friday that marijuana has no accepted medical use and should remain in the same class of drugs as heroin.

    The decision comes nearly nine years after marijuana supporters asked the government to reclassify the drug to take into account the growing body of research conducted across the globe that proves it's effective in treating certain diseases, reports The Los Angeles Times.

    The paper spoke to advocates who criticized the ruling but are pleased that the government has finally responded, which allows them to appeal to the federal courts.

    In May several medical marijuana advocacy groups under the name Coalition for Rescheduling Cannabis filed a lawsuit insisting that the DEA finally attend to the 9-year-old request, reports LAist.

    Joe Elford, chief counsel for Americans for Safe Access told the Times, he was not surprised by the decision, which came shortly after the Obama administration announced it would not tolerate large-scale commercial marijuana growing operations.

    It is clearly motivated by a political decision that is anti-marijuana," he said. He noted that studies demonstrate pot has beneficial effects, including appetite stimulation for people undergoing chemotherapy. "One of the things people say about marijuana is that it gives you the munchies and the truth is that it does, and for some people that's a very positive thing.

    The Times also noted, this is the third time that petitions to reclassify marijuana have been denied. The first was filed in 1972 and denied 17 years later. The second was filed in 1995 and denied in 2001. Both decisions were appealed, but the courts sided with the federal government.

    California and many other states have legalized marijuana for medicinal reasons and a push to legalize it in general is expected to appear on the 2012 ballot in California as Proposition 19, writes LAist.

    The real question is, at this point, does the federal Government have any use?

    Yet they have no problem rescheduli­ng THC from 2 to 4, merely for generic pharmaceut­ical purposes. The feds do not really care about the people.

    Marijuana is only illegal because of the racism of the early 20th century... It's was widely believed that black ppl smoked weed and started raping and murdering white women... Alcohol is actually the worst drug out there, no one punches a bouncer when they are high on weed... Seriously hungry, happy, sleepy that's what it does

    And I've handled a lot of cases of abuse where alcohol alone was a factor... but not once where the drug was marijuana alone.

    This plant should be legal to own and use as one wishes. It does not matter what religious conservati­ves think about this issue in the "Land of the Free"

    America is a secular, tolerant, freedom loving society and we need to stop spending 100s of billions of dollars a year investigat­ing and incarcerat­ing people over this useful, harmless PLANT.

    Besides the irrelevant Bible says nothing about this so religious conservati­ves need to go back to stoning non-virgin­s and rebellious teenagers.

    ALCOHOL HAS NO MEDICAL BENEFIT AND THEREFORE SHOULD BE PLACED INTO THE SAME CLASS AS HEROIN.

    How the hell do you compare weed to heroin?

    It makes sense. Seriously, just think about it.

    Sure does. One is completely safe, natural, non addictive, and has many benifits.

    Then there is herion.

    what a punch of ignorant and politicall­y motivated decisions by our elected officials. Politician­s are so 2 faced it is hard to decide which face is the real one. Under what classifica­tion does alcohol fall, is it considered a soft drink, and how many more people have been killed by alcohol related accidents then pot smoking, Remember people that smoke pot stay home. It is easier to stuff people full of medication because the government and big corporatio­n benefit very well from the sale of pills etc. pot which is a natural growing plant? I am also curious who decides that pot is a drug. Surely some of the man and women that have made that decision must have smoked pot, what an ignorant thinking. drug testers get over it it is a medication and not a drug,.....­...

    If marijuana was discovered today it would be considered a miracle drug.

    The only way this country will legalize pot is when all those who are in power that believe "Reefer Madness" is an accurate portrayal of weed and it's users are dead and gone.

    Maybe another 20 years and we'll have people in office who will stop this nonsense and finally make it legal.
