We had a positive experience with the babysitter we booked via the Grapevine Placement Agency…read moreduring a weekend getaway in Yountville, and would recommend this agency! Grapevine was one of two nanny agencies recommended to us by our hotel. Their online booking experience was easy and I found their rates more reasonable than the other nanny agency our hotel recommended. (I reached out to both and quickly compared all-in pricing.) The babysitter we were assigned, Rima, arrived on time and kept us updated on how things were going. She brought games and activities for my 7 year old daughter based on her interests, which I appreciated. The only thing that was a bit challenging is that we had to communicate with our babysitter via the Telegram app, which was new and different for me. I would have preferred WhatsApp or simple texting instead. Overall, I was happy with Grapevine and would recommend them to anyone looking for at-hotel childcare while in wine country with their children.

Children are introduced to sounds and words of the French language through song, nursery rhymes, stories and general everyday interactions. As children are exceptional language learners by nature, this total immersion environment enables them to quickly become familiar with French and begin to know how to use it for themselves. Our days here at preschool are rooted in the idea that a child learns through play and exploration! We lead children each day through a fun variety of arts and crafts, story time, classical dance (ballet), cooking, science actives, music, outdoor and free play time. These experiences are guided completely in French to familiarize children with numbers, letters, colors, shapes, and other early vocabulary. We recognize that each child has unique talents, learning style and personality. LPJ is committed to ensure optimal social, emotional and linguistic growth. Classes are kept to a low student-teacher ratio for happy, healthy learning! Popular childhood songs and nursery rhymes from France will soon become some of your child’s favorites!

I can't even begin to say how thankful we are to have found Baby Time. We were so nervous sending…read moreour daughter to daycare when she was 7 months, but she did so well her first week! Kim and Matthew are amazing! They are genuinely happy to see the kids every day. Just 1 week at Baby Time and our Emmy started to sit up. They provide a safe environment for the babies to thrive and let them do different activities. They go in the wagon outside when the weather is warm, get pushed in the little cars, play with water, pounce their little hands on their piano, sing songs, etc. Never a dull moment. I was afraid our Emmy wouldn't be able to nap there but Kim did her magic and can put Emmy down and she will fall asleep on her own with no problems! They provide whole milk and Emmy is being transitioned right now. Kim has been super helpful with that and is working hard on getting Emmy to drink milk from a straw cup vs a bottle. Kim also cooks organic food for the kids and give them a lot of fruits and veggies. The best part- the updates! We get several updates throughout the day as the occur. Pee, bowel movements, food, bottle intake, naps, and LOTS OF PICTURES and VIDEOS!! Sometimes I don't even get a chance to see or watch until way later because there are constant updates. It makes me feel so much better knowing what is going on with Emmy in real time and I totally have peace of mind. I can't recommend Baby Time enough. Best decision for our family. We trust Kim and Matthew to take care of our girl and they are sweet and genuine. They treat the kids like their own. They also work with you and your needs for your child, so the transition was smooth!

Baby Time used the Brightwheel app and we get tons of pictures and videos of our daughter throughout the day. Every meal, nap, and diaper is tracked. I am always impressed with how detailed and frequent Kim is with her post. I truly feel so lucky to have found Baby Time.

They have been…read moresuch a special part of his little life, and I truly can't imagine having trusted anyone else with him during these early years. My husband and I are both nurses with busy, demanding schedules, and leaving your child in someone else's hands is never easy. Vanessa and Jose gave us such peace of mind. We could go to work knowing George was safe, happy, and with people who genuinely knew and cared about him. George is a busy little boy with a huge personality! He's sweet, funny, sensitive, energetic, and sometimes prone to those very big toddler feelings! Vanessa and Jose understood him so well. Every day I picked him up clean, smiling, content, and completely himself. They even somehow got our busy boy to nap with the other children, which still feels like a miracle! He also learned so much during his time there. He came home counting, singing his ABCs, using new words, and constantly surprising us with new things he knew. As he heads to preschool, I feel so confident that he is ready, and I know Vanessa and Jose played a huge role in giving him that foundation. Their home is warm, nurturing, and full of joy. They genuinely know each child (personalities, routines, quirks, and when they need a little extra comfort). It meant everything to know that while we were at work, two wonderful people were taking care of our baby. We will always be grateful for Vanessa and Jose and the love they gave George. They will forever be such a special part of his story and our family's.

I value Vanessa's flexibility of my schedule as it varied upon enrolling my tot. She made the transition smooth and her hours of operation, situated well. Being a first time mom, letting my tot go to daycare, was a bit nerve racking but Vanessa's process and communication, put my mind at ease. It is a huge added and beneficial network that babysitting on the weekends may be possible per request and planning. My toddler learned and grew noticeably here from Vanessa and Jose's (family run) dedicated care. There's a good balance of activities & I'm glad that there were a couple of other toddlers that were around the same age, in terms of months, with my toddler since he learns by mirroring a lot of the time. Opted for a home daycare because it's enough stimulation for play - singing, dancing, outdoors time water fun, and etc. Recommend highly!
