Meet Me

Hello, I am Sharon Coleman, an early childhood educator and owner of Loving Care for Kids, a successful large family child care and preschool facility in Suisun City.

My child care business was established in March 2001. In September of 2003, I received my first Certificate of Accreditation from the National Association for Family Child Care (NAFCC), which certifies that my program has the highest standards of quality child care. I am currently the only accredited family child care provider in Suisun and one of about 20 out of approximately 650 providers in Solano County. I am also trained as a NAFCC Observer to assess other providers going through the Accreditation program.

I am President of the Solano County Licensed Family Child Care Association and 2nd Vice President of the California Association for Family Child Care. As an advocate and community service member for children, I actively network with family child care providers and educators to exchange ideas, techniques and share concerns to improve the quality of early care for all children in our community.

I earned a Child Development Assistant Permit Teaching Credential from the State of California. I am enrolled in classes at Solano Community College and Chapman University working toward a BA degree in Liberal Arts with an emphasis on Early Childhood Education.

I work as a "mentor" to other family child care providers and assist them in starting and managing their child care businesses.

I am the proud mother of one son, Douglas, and grandmother of three beautiful children; Jaden, Douglas and Cynphany.

I am an active member of the following organizations:

· California Association for the Education of Young Children (CAEYC)

· California Association for Family Child Care (CAFCC)

· Children’s Hospital Foundation “Miracle Makers Society”

· National Association for Family Child Care (NAFCC)
