The best advice I've found has been from here:
 
http://www.ciliatus.com/content/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=76&Itemid=285  - General Care
http://www.ciliatus.com/content/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=28&Itemid=175  - Caging
http://www.ciliatus.com/content/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=36&Itemid=197  - Diet

Admittedly, I've only had my geckos a few weeks, but they seem pretty happy using those guidelines.

Best of luck and congratulations!

Did you NOT read those links I posted for you?

A sterilite shoe box or medium Kritter keeper is better for a baby.

No UVB, no nightlight, no day light.

Paper towel for bedding-easier to see poops and the baby can eat it and get sick.

no-you feed it EVERY NIGHT.  It's a NOCTURNAL animal.

No crickets for now.  Get it used to CGD FIRST.  Let it stay only on CGD for at least a month.

I really don't think you're ready for a reptile, even one as EASY as a crested gecko, if you can't collect information on your own, without having someone make you lists of the things you need and schedules for care.

And your spelling and sentence structure doesn't do anything to recommend your maturity or ability, either.
