Hello. My name is Raine Renee and I created this website.
My intention for this page was to developed a page that will appeal to parents that are looking for child care assistance, especially those that cannot afford it.
Development Process:
I began my development process by listing the necessary targets that I was aiming to hit. I listed what it was that parents would look for and want in a possible child care provider. I then began to think of colors that were appealing to the eye and fonts that would draw attention but not be too obnoxious to the point that it would be too busy and distracting from the content being read. Besides the home page I wanted all the internal pages to be consistent in the color and typography areas. I wanted to make sure the website was easy on the eye but also eye catching at the same time. I wanted to keep the background sort of muted to the point where the font colors, pictures and logo will pop against it. Although I didn’t want it to be too loud I also didn’t want it to be too boring. I changed the background color to more of a gradient color to provide contrast. The homepage was intended to be inviting and show the companies thoughtful side and play on words with the companies name. But I also wanted it to be as simple as possible. I wanted the user to be able to interact with the page but not have too much going on to distract them from the star of the page which was the background, company name and small quote. The internal pages have a very menu bar that seamlessly travel to each page and back to the other. The logo provides the ability to go back to the home page, where the three bears are.
Making Things Better:
If I had more time I would go back to fix the form I created for the contact page. I wanted the boxes to be spaced out more but I failed to find the solution for that. I would have like to add an animation of some sort. Maybe have the title of each page slide in and out when entering and exiting a page. I would have also like to have placed frames around the pictures I added to the gallery but failed to find the right way to complete that as well. It is all trial and error, this website will not be complete until it is up to my personal standards. We are not there yet.
