This helpful tool can be used in the ECE facilities planning stages to design and create child care facilities that are "child-oriented, developmentally appropriate, beautiful, environmentally sensitive, healthy promoting and functional." Users can browse through different areas of the facility inculding the building, classroom, bathroom, kitchen, laundry and outdoor play areas.

As a Squarespace expert based in Charleston, SC, I have received excellent reviews and achieved a high success rate on Upwork, which I have worked with for years. My experience also includes working at three ad agencies and art-directing two magazines.

I prioritize strategic navigation and visual appeal in my designs. My fee includes copy editing/reworking, stock photography, icon art, and implementing all recommended SEO practices from Squarespace. Additionally, I am proficient in Adobe Creative Suite, which includes Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop. I also use minimal coding when designing Squarespace websites, ensuring clients can easily maintain and edit them.

With more than 20 years of experience, I have designed Squarespace websites for a variety of industries, including interior design firms, architects, real estate companies, attorneys, investment firms, realtors, entrepreneurs, solar energy companies, wedding professionals, corporate businesses, and non-profit organizations, among others.
