A Lifetime of Nurturing Little Minds

Explore the best ways to improve your child’s development and well-being at my day care. Pea Wees In A Pod has been a registered day care provider in Orange County, New York, since 2004. I, Kerri-Ann Perone, have been in the child care industry for over 28 years. Originally from Rhode Island, I moved to California at the age of six. I started as an in-home “nanny” at the age of 16 and found that I absolutely love working with children.

Child Care That Stays Small on Purpose

Child Care That Stays Small on Purpose

When I started Pea Wees In A Pod, I wanted it to be different. Safety was one of my concerns. Knowing how new parents are so uneasy about leaving their child for the first time in daycare, I made it my priority. “Keeping it small” was also something I wanted to do. Daycare centers can have over 200 kids; it’s more like a factory than child care—children just don’t get the attention they need. My maximum is eight children with at least two assistants.

Pea Wees In A Pod has over 1200 square feet of home day care with a security entrance. It is located on two acres of beautiful wilderness. Customers say, “When turning down the private road, it’s like a whole other world,” yet it’s right off Route 32, making it very convenient.
