I sent my 2 boys to Elisa's daycare. They have never been to daycare before and from the first day,…read morethey really enjoyed it. Elisa was always texting photos and updates about how they were doing throughout the days. I really liked how there was a lot of outside time (weather permitting of course), circle time for the toddlers, and various activities. My oldest was speech delayed and in just a few months, he was talking more than he ever has. Elisa and her family did a wonderful job taking care of my boys and catered to their specific needs. We were happily driving from Elk Grove to Shingle Springs for her care. When we stopped going, she even reached out asking how my boys are doing and that she missed them. Super sweet family! Strongly recommend Peaceful Doves Childcare and don't regret sending my boys here for their first daycare experience.

The staff at Happy Kids has gone out of their way to make me and my son feel welcome and cared for. They do arts and crafts, have out door play in a super duper play area outside, have story time, nap time and everything else a pre school/daycare should have.. All of the staff make me feel that my son is getting one on one attention even though there are a lot of other children in attendance. The Director and her staff are all top notch. My son begs to attend school everyday, even on the weekends he loves it so much.

Joanie has been an early childhood professional her whole life and truly understands what children need in a play-based program. She introduces academic concepts in a fun and engaging manner, but never pushes learning- which is developmentally appropriate in a preschool. She's also a great mentor for parents and knows how to support you and your family. I cannot recommend her program highly enough. All three of my children attended her school and they are thriving thanks to the great start she gave them.

I'm a mom of three and really struggled with the preschool decision. My daughters have very different personalities and Applebee caters to both of their needs. I love dropping my kids off at school and feel great while at work knowing they are getting amazing care. My oldest daughter - Madelyn. She's very sweet, slow to warm up, sensitive and loves to follow directions. She's a model student. I feel that Applebee really got Madelyn out of her shell and encouraged her to explore and make her own decisions. My younger daughter - Alexandra (we call her Aki). She's very outgoing and has a strong personality. She can be stubborn at times and likes to test boundaries. A true 3 year old. Applebee had a way of letting Alexandra be free spirited within boundaries that didn't feel too constricting. Aki had a hard time adjusting initially and would cry during nap time. The teachers were really caring and would hold, hug and rock Aki to sleep during nap time. Aki would come home smelling like sweet perfume and it made me feel so good to know that they really cared about her. She no longer needs to be rocked. Some quotes from my kids: - Mommy: Who are your best friends? Answer: Teacher Cecilia and Stacy. - Mommy: If you aren't good tonight then you can't go to Applebee tomorrow. Answer: WWWAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!! You can not find better loving teachers, educators, mentors and family than Joannie, Bev, Stacy and Cecilia!

**Welcome to "Strictly Business Daycare" - Where Parents' Frustrations Are Our Specialty!**…read more Are you tired of peace of mind and need more daily disruptions? Do you enjoy being pulled away from work for mysterious fevers that magically disappear the moment you arrive? Then look no further than Strictly Business Daycare! At Strictly Business Daycare, we pride ourselves on making sure your life is as difficult as possible. We know it's just daycare, but we believe in making you jump through every hoop we can think of - because, after all, it's "required by code." Need to use diaper cream or kid's ibuprofen? Better have that doctor's note ready! Want to switch to oat milk for your lactose-sensitive child? Get that prescription form signed and stamped, please! But don't worry, after you provide it, we'll either misplace it or start insinuating that you're sneaking vitamins and minerals into those bottles, sending them back home with a warning that you're violating "code" while we still give your child dairy. Because why bother with consistency when we can keep you constantly on edge? And for everything else, we'll make sure to turn it into a paperwork marathon, because we're all about "following the rules." Our receptionists are multitasking masters, constantly running between handling parent issues, bus transportation, and the occasional break to actually man the front desk. And if you need to speak with the director? Good luck! They're always "too busy" with important issues like focusing on making sure the office is seasonally decorated to perfection. Real concerns? Not so much. But hey, at least the place looks beautiful and smells like pumpkin spice in Fall, even if it's all fake - just like the care we claim to provide. But don't just take our word for it - experience firsthand how our subpar cleaning will keep little ones perpetually snotty. After all, what's childhood without a constant stream of colds? We're proud to say that in just four months, we can make even the most seasoned daycare parents wish they'd never walked through our doors. But don't worry, after those few long months, you'll be just as grateful as other parents who have finally escaped to a new daycare that actually cares about your child's well-being. It's night and day - literally. Where else can you almost lose your job and your sanity? Only at Strictly Business Daycare! **Strictly Business Daycare - Because Who Needs a Nurturing Environment When We Have Rules to Enforce?*
