I first found Peekaboo Daycare on Yelp when I was scrambling to find a new daycare after my last…read moredaycare unexpected closure. I called and Ms Joy answered right away and let me know she would get back to me the following day with her availability for the upcoming month. Ms Joy followed through and we were able to stop by the same week and get a tour and get more info. My daughter felt comfortable right away and Ms Joy was accommodating for our temporary arrangement. My daughter was only in Ms Joy's care for a few months but she really love coming here. If my daughter wasn't already transitioning to TK we would definitely continue to stay at Peekaboo. Ms Joy's rate is reasonable and most importantly kids seem to really enjoy coming here. If you are looking for a trustworthy and reliable daycare, I highly recommend Peekaboo Daycare.

I can't begin to say enough good things about Joy and her Daycare! My daughter went here for 3.5…read moreyears and we both were so sad to see it end. Handing your child over is so hard, but these ladies were a God send. From day 1 we were both so comfortable, I never worried about her for a second. That comfort is immeasurable. My daughter thrived here so much, and learned a ton. If you are able to get your child in to her daycare, don't hesitate. You won't regret it. I am forever blessed to have had the opportunity to have my daughter be under their loving care!

Harvest House Daycare, led by Ms. Sylvia with the loving support of Ms. Joan and Papa, is truly a…read morehidden gem. From the moment you see the space, you can feel the difference -- her home and large backyard offer room for children to move, play, and grow in a calm, nurturing environment. It feels like family, not a crowded commercial center. The children are well cared for, fed fresh organic vegetables and even home-grown fruits, and they come home happy, clean, and secure every day. What truly sets Harvest House apart is the focus on early learning, especially reading and math. Ms. Sylvia follows an old-school, pen-and-paper approach that emphasizes literacy, numbers, and repetition over constant arts and crafts. I've had two daughters here -- my first (Delaney) attended from age 3 to 5, and my second (Henley) started as a newborn at just 2 months old and is still with Ms. Sylvia now at age 5, entering kindergarten next year. My youngest has already surpassed the kindergarten curriculum: she knew sight words by age 2.5, began reading by 3.5, and now reads at a second-grade level. When my first daughter was born, I called Harvest House Daycare when she was six months old and there was no space available. At the time, I enrolled her in an expensive, brand-name private school believing the higher price would guarantee better care and education. I later learned that branding and cost do not equal quality. The structure, academic focus, and individualized attention at Harvest House far exceeded what we experienced elsewhere. We were incredibly fortunate to later secure a spot, and both of my daughters thrived here academically, socially, and emotionally. The price is absolutely worth it when you consider the long-term growth, confidence, and academic advantage your child gains. With reliable hours from 6:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., genuine care, and a strong academic foundation, Harvest House Daycare offers something rare -- a place where children are truly prepared for school and life, not just watched during the day.

They have become a second family and…read moremade it so easy as parents to find a sense of peace knowing our kiddos are being well cared for. All of my children have been with them since they were infants (2 months & 5 months old). Their day to day is structured which helps create a routine for the kids and they know what to expect each day. The program includes breakfast, lunch, and snacks which are all nutritious and my kids love (I give credit for my kiddos being great eaters, they love veggies, to the balanced meals they receive). Even from infancy formula is provided if needed along with food plans outlined once solids are introduced. Once old enough they facilitate a preschool program, my two year old can hold a pencil correctly and does his worksheets daily. The early introduction to these skills continue on to help prepare for kindergarten. We decided to keep our kids at Harvest House until they started kindergarten, and credit the curriculum and dedication they set in place of reading, sight words, and math to setting them up for success. My 8 and 5 yr old progressed at different paces but both felt more confidence going into kindergarten. In the eight years we have been with them they haven't been closed outside the Holidays and Vacation days outlined at the beginning of the year, providing us working parents with the reliability and stability needed. Harvest House has been a blessing for our family creating a safe, caring, and structured program for our kids. My eight year old still wants to go back to ZaZa's and Papa's on her school breaks. Truly could not recommend Harvest House more as top notch child care provider. Ainsley, Hadley, Dalton, Doug and Kali

I found Ruby when I was searching for childcare for my 15 month old. I had contacted several…read moredaycares and Ruby was the only one who returned my call. Initially, she was not my first option because it was little farther out than I would've liked but man was I so lucky that the only person who returned my call at the time ended up being a blessing to me and my daughter. Even when I told Ruby the distance may be a factor for why I needed to choose another daycare, she remained graceful, helpful, understanding and willing to offer other recommendations. I was so nervous to leave my daughter with someone but she loves Ruby! Ruby has a gift with children where she's able to accommodate each one based on their individual needs. She offers a calm, stable, nurturing environment and truly makes relationships with the parents so we feel comfortable. She's worth the drive for me because I know my child is in great hands. I have nothing to worry about! Thanks Ruby!

I was so nervous to switch to daycare when our nanny share ended unexpectedly, but finding Mikka's…read moredaycare was a lifesaver. I quickly decided that the right daycare is even better than having a nanny. Mikka's home is bright, clean, and welcoming. We looked at so many daycares in dark basements that seemed like depressing places to spend the day. I got a good feeling from the moment I stepped inside Mikka's. Mikka is warm, caring, and patient. My son blossomed in her care, his language skills expanded exponentially, he made friends with the other kids, he learned table manners and was exposed to a wide variety of healthy foods, and most importantly he was always so excited to head to her house each morning. I was sad when my son graduated to preschool, but grateful for how well-prepared he was for that next step. And I can't wait to send my younger son to Mikka's in a few months!

When you first walk in, you will notice how clean and bright it is. The walls have beautiful art and pictures of the children. The toys are new, organized and forever evolving. Mikka caters and understands each child's individual needs. She is very alert about allergies, asthma, etc. Communication with parents throughout the day is A+++. If something is happening out of the norm with our little one, she always gave us a heads up even if a pick up isn't needed. When it is needed, we already have the heads up so it's not a surprise. There's always pictures and videos! Both our boys went to Mikka's and considered her family. Our youngest started with her at 4 months. We would've started him at 3 months if there was an opening. Overall, Mikka's has been a very nurturing and safe place for our kids to spend their most important growing years. Highly recommended!

Moore Learning was a beautiful experience for our daughter. As an educator myself, I was very keen…read moreon touring various preschools and looking for qualities that make me feel like my child is going to grow and is safe. Their philosophy is much more creative and evidence-based, promoting more independence and exploration which was refreshing compared to the other preschools I toured. The interior is very homey, clean, and creative. They are always making upgrades and changing it up, keeping it refreshed. The cost is comparable to other preschools I toured. The teachers are phenomenal. My girl had Ms. Emma, Ms. Tasha, and Ms. Esther. I love the clear communication, and they were all so patient and sweet but still had high expectations for the kiddos. Moore's uses an app to check in and out. I got so many adorable pictures of my girl throughout the day with updates on what she was doing and what she ate that made me feel at ease. Ms. Yasmeen is the assistant director, always at the site. She is so sweet and helpful. She loves the kids, always getting them little trinkets for special occasions and helping out in all areas. Moore's curriculum is very organized with themes changing each month like space, sea animals, cooking, and so on. The art is actually made by the students themselves to encourage creativity. By the end, my girl was drawing her whole family on many of the art projects she brought back. Quite a bit of focus on handwriting as well, which I appreciated. The kiddos get an abundance of playtime outside with all the cool obstacles and activities they have out there. Moore has many guest presenters like Dan the pirate who come and talk about their professions. My girl learned so much and would always tell me little facts that she learned at school. Moore's has a plethora of events throughout the year. My girl attended the Thanksgiving, Easter Egg Hunt, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day Tea Party and so on. There are many others such as the Trunk-or-Treat and pretty much something for every holiday. They also do free photoshoots with Santa and the Easter Bunny! Overall, I am overly pleased with the experience here. My girl made so many friends and even got invited to her first birthday party here from a classmate. I feel very blessed and thankful for Moore Learning and I highly recommend!!

We're really happy with our time at Moore so far with my 2 year old. At previous schools we'd get…read morenonstop phone calls about him not staying on his mat during nap, not handling transitions well, not interacting with kids the same way other kids do, playing with the dirt or bark too much while outside, etc. The teachers at Moore have done a beautiful job meeting him where he's at and providing an environment that lets him be himself while still learning how to be in a class environment. From day 1 with Moore we noticed a big difference. He's much more regulated, he actually naps (!!!), he's made friends and he genuinely enjoys going to school each day. The app allows for direct communication with his teacher if needed and we get updates all day on what he's up to. The teachers are friendly but still firm with the kids when needed which is great. They do a ton of activities including learning numbers, letters, their names, doing sensory activities, practicing fine and gross motor skills, etc. Moore isn't going to be your standard daycare center with pristine rooms and strict schedules. They're a daycare center with a home daycare feel. My son often comes home covered in dirt with shoes full of sand and we LOVE it. We like that you can tell the kids have played all day because it means they got to be kids.

Our daughter attends GOLDEN VALLEY ACADEMY and we could not be happier. The teacher to student…read moreratios are the best we found in CHILD care program and the teachers in our daughter's classroom are experienced, organized, calm, and nurturing. They really understand child development and everything they do is tailored to the ages and capabilities of the children in the classroom. Doing the basics well - eating, napping, exercise - are always top priority and the teachers have helped our daughter get on a schedule. In addition to the basics, the kids go outside almost every day, they do art projects & read, they have special sensory stimulation (playing with sand, smelling citrus fruits) and they work on gross and fine motor skills purposefully -. Another thing that we loved is that the children are pretty tightly grouped in age. At another preschool we looked at, the 3 month olds were with babies around the age of 1 and there was only 1 teacher for every 4 babies. The classrooms were chaotic and the level of calm at GOLDEN VALLEY ACADEMY is completely different from that environment. The school is run incredibly well. no matter how small - and always put the children first. It's so comforting to know that our child is safe & cherished by her caregivers. We looked at other preschools in the area but none of them even came close to the level of care at GOLDEN VALLEY ACADEMY.

This is my first ever yelp review, but I have to share the good news about this in-home daycare…read morefacility because I believe Wee Little Learning Circle raises the bar when it comes to quality childcare. My son has been attending this daycare for exactly one year. We tried the nanny, we tried a friend, and we tried another in-home daycare. While the others were sufficient, they just didn't provide exactly what I wanted for my son. But the moment my husband and I stepped foot into Ms. Chyron's house I knew that my child would be well provided for while in her care. I cried, to tell the truth because Ms. Chyron and Ms. Jean were friendly, warm, welcoming, and most importantly they were affordable. This is what makes Ms. Chyron great, but what makes her daycare awesome is the amount of time and energy she dedicates to teaching the children that are in her care. My son is now two years old and can count to 40 on his own! He can identify shapes by name and knows colors. Wee Little Learning Circle is NOT a licensed preschool, but in the words of Ms. Chyron, she likes to "stretch their learning capacity." In other words, once the children show an interest in something Ms. Chyron seizes the opportunity to teach them. Additionally, they focus on letters and sounds, and do fun activities based on what they have learned. Many people are surprised at how much my child knows and how well he speaks, and this is due in large part to the support of Ms. Chyron and her mother Ms. Jean. I can't say enough about Wee Little Learning Circle...I could but this review would go forever. If you are looking for childcare provider in the Elk Grove area, I urge you to check out this place- schedule a visit-hangout with the kids. You will not be disappointed.

My son was previously attending a traditional pre-school setting (a very popular corporate named…read moreschool in the Sacramento area). We had mixed luck with his teachers, and I was left wanting a closer relationship with the person spending a bulk of the day with my child. From the moment I met Ms. Taz in her classroom for a tour, I felt an instant sense of calm and connection. My son felt comfortable enough to start interacting with the classroom materials. Not to mention, it felt pretty amazing to see a South Asian woman of color (just like me) leading the classroom. Over the last 2 years, I've been able to see my son gain independence, social skills, and learn how to be respectful. Ms. Taz is always available to answer any concerns or questions that I may have. I feel comfortable approaching her, and appreciate the small and diverse classroom size which fosters a close relationship between my son and other students in the classroom. As a newish parent, it has also been comforting to finally have a small community of parent friends that we spend time with and can depend on. I can't wait till our baby girl is old enough to be an LLM student.
