Hakuna Matata Child Care for Kids with Special Needs: An Innovative way to run a Registered Daycare

In the world of child care, there is a growing need for services that cater to children with special needs. Families with children who require extra care and attention often struggle to find a loving and understanding environment for their children with disabilities. Many daycares do not have the training, years of experience, or equipment to work with children with special needs. This is where Hakuna Matata In Home Child Care comes in, offering compassionate and specialized care for kids aged 10 months-4 years old with and without special needs. This promotes an inclusive environment that every child deserves.

Founded by a former special education teacher with 6 years of experience, Hakuna Matata In Home Child Care is not your typical daycare. The focus here is on using visuals throughout the environment, adapted curriculum in the classroom, and sensory exercises and techniques throughout the day. Along with visuals are communication supports to promote functional language development.

One of the key aspects that set Hakuna Matata apart is their emphasis on teaching functional and practical life skills to children with disabilities. By providing a nurturing and supportive environment, the team at Hakuna Matata helps these children build essential skills that will set them up for success in the future. Right now we are in the process of using different kid-friendly cleaning "equipment" and "products" to practice cleaning up at certain times of the day (after eating, at the end of the day, etc.)

For parents looking for a safe and loving environment for their special needs child, Hakuna Matata offers house tours to showcase their facilities and give families a firsthand look at the care and attention their child will receive. The goal is not just to provide a service, but to build a community of support for families in need of specialized care.



As Hakuna Matata continues to grow and expand their in-home child care business, their mission remains the same - to reach more families and provide the compassionate care that every child deserves. If you are looking for a nurturing and understanding environment for your child, Hakuna Matata In Home Child Care may be the perfect fit for your family.
