Meet Haleigh

Our New Art Leader

Haleigh Wilcox was born in Ogden, Utah. In August 2010 she married her high school sweetheart. December of 2011 she graduated from Renaissance! February of 2012 they added a baby boy named Wyatt to their family. Haleighs interests include music of all sorts, hair, ballet and most of all art. Haleigh's father is a professional artist. At a very young age she was exposed to the world of art. When she isn't at daycare or attending to Wyatt, you will always find her drawing. Haleigh has been in numerous art galleries throughout the years and has even had the opportunity to display pieces in the Springville Museum of Art. She absolutely adores kids and is looking forward to sharing art with them!

Meet Jaymie

Our New Daycare Mom Liaison

Hello Parents!! My name is Jaymie Wilkerson and I am fairly new to Renaissance. I have had the opportunity to meet most of you and get to know your sweet children already. I thought I'd share a little about myself so you could get to know me a little better too. I grew up in Spanish Fork for the most part and love my Utah County home. I am a single mother of three great children!! I became a police officer 7 years ago and worked as a Deputy Sheriff in the Patrol Bureau for 5 years. I decided to take a break from law enforcement and focus more on being a mom and helping to care for a disabled family member. I found Renaissance Daycare through another Employee, Summer Trujillo, who saw that I desperately wanted to be around children and sought out a job working with them. Because of my time working long hours as single mother over these past years I have experienced first hand  how stressful leaving your child with other caregivers can be. I KNOW how it feels to not be able to focus because you are worrying about your child, I KNOW that concerns and questions are constantly raised regarding your child's environment when you can't be right by their side. My goal, along with the other staff members, is to provide a safe, healthy learning environment for your children. An open communication where questions and concerns can be discussed and addressed. This will hopefully help you have a more comfortable and enjoyable learning experience here at Renaissance. I have been thrilled to get to know so many beautiful children and their awesome Moms!! I really look forward to the new changes and improvements happening with the Daycare!! Thank you all so much for letting me be part of the Renaissance experience!

Renaissance Moms

Day Care News

The Day Care has been doing some rearranging in order to serve our moms and sweet children better.

Please be aware that when you arrive Monday morning the Preschoolers will now be meeting in their very own class room.

We've shifted things up in order to provide a kitchen area for art projects, snack times and lunch time away from the learning and play spaces.  Also the new location of the preschool gives moms the opportunity to visually check in on their children as often as they need throughout the day.

Here's a sneak peek....

New Class Schedules

Our goal for the Renaissance children is to provide positive interaction, learning and fun within their care environment.  

In order to support this goal we have created the following class schedules for each class.  We are excited and committed to making your children's experience one that they enjoy each day.

We will be testing these new schedules throughout the next 2 weeks in order to better gauge our little learners involvement in each area.  We will keep moms informed of any changes or adjustments that may occur.

Mom Time 

Moms, we as a day care staff, are looking to create a sanitation chart for bleaching and cleaning toys.  When mom's are assigned to a shift in the day care we would like to use this time, as a staff,  to clean and safe guard our care environment.  Please make it a priority to honor your assigned shift as we have many sanitation goals we'd like to accomplish on a weekly basis and we need your help to make it happen :)
