Sundew Child Care

My program: Sundew Child Care is licensed through the State of Alaska and offers care to a small-group size of 5 children. I accept children aged 2 through 8 years. I offer monthly enrollment and drop-in care. I am open M-F, 7:30 am to 4:00 pm.

Our Day: Children are encouraged to express their creativity and investigate how the world works. I provide a variety of hands-on learning activities that allow children to explore all of their senses. Numerous outdoor play options are all within walking distance: playground, forest, beach. Children may help feed our chickens and rabbits and throw the ball for the dogs. Children help prepare their own snacks and local ingredients are harvested when available. A low child-to-provider ratio allows me to give children individualized attention and help them explore special interests.

About me: My name is Jaspri Musarra. My husband and I grew up in Juneau and we have a 7 month old daughter. I have a bachelor's degree in Biology and a passion for increasing sustainable living practices and self sufficiency. I started caring for children in my youth. I volunteered at numerous summer camps when I was a teenager and most recently worked as a teaching assistant at the Juneau Montessori School. In the summer of 2016, I prepared our home for child care and became a licensed provider.
