Super clean and kind people. I love the place, so does my princess Leilani. She waits anxiously to go there in the morning

My daughter has been attending Paradise Child Care for 2.5 years and we have had a wonderful experience. She has learned so much and she genuinely seems to have a good time while she is there and is always proud of the coloring or letters that she practiced. Shahnaz and her family have been a blessing to me as a single working mom, providing home cooked meals (the home always smells of delicious cooking), providing a safe place that I am comfortable leaving for the day, and always communicating any issues or major illnesses. we will be sad to live them when we eventually graduate to big girl school. read more

Shahnaz is awesome! My son has been going here since he was just 5-month-old and now he is almost 3. My son is always happy to go there and sometimes even reminds me in the morning that he needs to go to school today. That says everything about a daycare! Shahnaz also provides nutritious/yummy breakfast and lunch for the kids and I always smell good food when I drop my son off. That's a big lifesaver for busy working parents like us who really don't have the time to cook big meals in the morning. I sometimes even joke with my family that Shahnaz probably takes better care of my little one than myself :). In summary, we are very glad that we find this reliable and caring daycare in our neighborhood! Thank you, Shahnaz! read more

It is incredibly easy to give 5 stars to Paradise Child Care. The difficult part is to write something that has not already been stated by the other 5 star reviews on this page. Every parent wants their child to be in a safe, caring and productive environment. This is all of those things. My son has been here for almost two years and absolutely LOVES Shahnaz and her family. In addition, he has learned so much. He surprises us with the new things he can do whether that is counting, a new word, etc. As two working parents with no family close by: we also wanted a day care with solid hours and a communicative leader. Paradise Child Care delivers on both of those points as well. Overall we are lucky to send our son here and we look forward to our daughter joining Paradise Child Care in a few months. read more

I loved having chosen Shahnaz as my daughter's first caregiver in her first day care. I prioritize infant health food and I am enchanted by the Persian food culture. I am Brazilian and just like in Brazil, Persians use natural grains, condiments and spices that are antioxidants and care the body as well. It was wonderful to meet you Shahnaz. The reason my daughter left day care was only because of our move to Northern California. Thank you for everything Shahnaz! What an honor it was to have this time with you! My first Mother's Day gift from the school will also be unforgettable read more

If you are in the Woodbridge area looking for reliable, caring, cost effective, and most importantly trustworthy child care look no further. My son has been coming here for almost a year now and I am so grateful to have found them. I also searched everywhere and read reviews and I want to help you be able to make informed decisions about your precious little ones. My son always comes home excited that he got to play at Shanaz's (Paradise Child Care). Every time I would drop him off I knew he was in good hands and was a little jealous because I would always smell some good cooking. If you are reading this than good for you on doing your homework but I'll make it easy for you because I've been there and done that so just call or text them to take a look for yourself. read more

When you're choosing a daycare, the best you can hope for is that the caregivers become like extended family. We had a good feeling this would happen when our daughter started going to Paradise Child Care, but Shahnaz still surprised us with the genuine love and care she has for the kids there. Our daughter absolutely loved seeing Shahnaz, her family, and the kids. For the two years she attended Paradise Child Care, she played, slept, and ate well at Shahnaz's every day. In addition to being warm and loving, Shahnaz was reliable, clean, organized, and communicative. We were so grateful to have her in our life. read more

We were very lucky to have found Paradise Child Care. We have twin boys that were very well cared for by Shahnaz and her staff. She treated them just like her own children and it was nice to have piece of mind that our children were happy while at work. My wife and I would definitely recommend Paradise Child Care for a safe and loving environment for your children. read more

My son loves it here! I interviewed about a dozen other daycares before I found Paradise Childcare. My son comes home everyday telling me about the fun day, singing songs, playing with his friends, and dancing. I love that meals are included too. Shes gotten my son to try new food that he usually wouldn't eat, because he sees all his friends eating and enjoying it. read more

Paradise Child Care - St Patrick's day party - Child Care & Day Care Near Me - Irvine, California

I would recommend Nana (Shanaz) and the day care without hesitation. Our son loved it there and we were very happy with the attention to the kids and the warm treatment. read more

We are very thankful to find Paradise Childcare. Our family moved to Irvine before my son turned 3, and we were worried whether he would adjust to the new environment smoothly. But thanks to teacher Shahnaz, my little one happily goes to daycare and is learning and maturing a lot! I know that my son is in good hands and is growing despite all the transition. He's been also learning different "life skills" and I am often pleasantly surprised by how much he learns at Paradise Childcare. Thank you teacher Nana :) read more

As a first time parent, I was very worried to leave my then 11 month old daughter at any daycare. I and my husband both work full time and we didn't want to leave out little one at a big daycare center because she would've been sick all the time. At the same time, she needed some interaction with other kids, so small in-home day care environment was our best option. It took me over a month to interview every single in-home day care at the area that had openings. I was looking for one that had it all - provided healthy home cooked meals, outdoor play, arts and crafts, was clean, and just that feeling of "you know it is right". The first things that I noticed when I visited Shahnaz were that there was no TV, it was extremely clean and there were washed broccoli and other vegetables draining in the sink and ready to be cooked. We singed up. In the begging my daughter cried for a bit in the morning which is completely normal. But every evening when I picked her up she was very happy and by VERY I mean she was squeaking of happiness from the time I picked her up till bedtime. Even though I was worried that she can't speak and tell me how her day went, her squeaking said more than enough. Shahnaz is one those people who were just born to interact with kids. She loves playing with them, tickling them and all the pretend and peekaboo games. They paint, dance and play. Every now and then I will get stacks of my daughter's art work. It has been over 7 months now that my daughter is doing to Paradise Child Care and she loves to paint and dance; she eats my home cooked soups and stews without a problem. Also, I wanted to mention that we do not speak English to her at home and I noticed she knows all the animals, the sounds they make, all body parts and colors in English. Shahnaz has be very flexible with our schedule. We do not have any relatives close by and there were a few times that we needed to pick her up an hour later which she accommodated without a problem. We also have the option to drop her off on weekends if we need to (with prior arrangement, of course). We have done this only once so far but it is very convenient and a relieve to know we can rely on Shahnaz. We do not need to look for a nanny and have our kid get used to a stranger. There are not enough words to describe how thankful I am to Shahnaz for taking such a great care of our little angel! Update (7/1/2018): my 2nd child also went to Paradise Childcare and it is still as amazing as our first time around. When our older one grew up, we moved her to a Montessori school and I can testify that she was learning way more academically at Nana than at the Montessori. Nana does implement a lot of Montessori practices, she does practical life to build fine motor skills. Both my kids started eating by themselves a bit after their 1st birthday and that is all thanks to Nana. My friend's children still have trouble with that 2.5-3 years old. read more

We are beyond grateful to have found Paradise Child Care for our son. Our good friends referred this daycare to us. We knew if they trusted Shahnaz to care for their kid, we would too. The transition from having your child taken care of at home to a daycare is initially tough but with the love, care, and attention Shahnaz gave our child it was a smooth process. My husband and I have found great comfort in leaving our child in good hands. Our child adores Shahnaz and loves going to daycare. He is always in a good mood when he is picked up. Shahnaz has provided a clean and great learning environment. Our son has learned so much since going here and has done so many fun art projects. Birthday and holiday celebrations are made memorable for the kids. Our son enjoys his day and loves his friends he has made there. In addition, the fact that Shahnaz provides the kids a variety of food allows our child to explore different food choices so that he is not a picky eater. We truly appreciate Shahnaz and her staff. We highly recommend this daycare. You will find great comfort knowing that your child is in a safe, loving, and learning environment. read more

We love Paradise Childcare. My son started here just after his 2nd birthday. We had looked at other daycares and struggled to find a place we felt comfortable with. It was intimidating to go from my mom watching him the days I worked to a large facility. I was feeling discouraged on my search until I found this daycare. The cozy environment and small class made for a smooth transition and my son came out of his shell quickly with Shahnaz's help. Her home is clean and very well maintained. She provides healthy meals and snacks. She throws the sweetest parties on holidays and birthdays that my son still talks about. He loves telling me about his day and the friends he has made. He adores his teachers. We are excited to hear him sing his ABCs and count as high as he can and see all the art projects he has done. Paradise child care has provided a positive, nurturing place for my son to grow into the sweet funny person he is. I cannot stress enough how lucky we feel to have found daycare. Shahnaz and her colleagues really care for all the kids, and treat everyone like family. I would absolutely recommend Paradise childcare. read more

Unfortunately my daughter will be leaving paradise childcare due to us moving out of state but if we were not I would not want her to be anywhere else. The love and kindness that is shown not only to the kids but the parents is amazing. We are so thankful. Wish we could take her with us . best daycare of all.time !!! read more

I highly recommend Paradise Child Care to anyone looking for a safe and caring home environment for their kids. Shahnaz is always very attentive and regularly communicates details about my son's day. She sends me pictures of him playing outside, making crafts or eating a snack ( since he's a fussy eater it is a huge triumph!!). Her home is always clean and Shahnaz and her staff are highly experienced and kind people. We love her! Marjan read more

Shahnaz has been a blessing. We are so grateful to have found her to care for our son. The home is very clean and organized, play area and big outdoor play area for when it's time for outdoor play. She has plenty of toys and activities to keep them busy. My son adores her and that tell us a lot. She has even gotten him on a schedule with naptime, which is great. She also has celebrations for the kids on holidays, Easter, birthdays etc. She is an amazing and sweet person. Thank you Shahnaz for all you do for our son. read more

This is a great home day care! It's always clean and cozy. Shahnaz is great and always take wonderful care of our son who goes five days a week. My wife and I feel very comfortable having him there. I wish we could of had his older sister there when she was his age. read more

Our older son is enrolled in a Montessori Preschool in Westpark and we currently live in Lake Forest. When we were ready to put our youngest into daycare at +/- 9 Months we were looking for somewhere that was not only close to the preschool but was also warm and inviting. I visited several in-home daycares and when Paradise Child Care was my last stop - I knew right away that is was the right place. Our son, Hudson, now 20 months is happy at almost every drop off and every pick up - which is the best sign you can go by with others caring for your children. I like that Shahnaz introduces the kids to a wide variety of foods and flavors - I am a strong believer in developing their palate early. I can tell that she is incorporating learning time with the kids as well because Hudson comes home with new words and sings the alphabet song constantly. The main area that the kids play in is very cheery and has a nice variety of toys and activities for the kids to work on. I would (and have) recommended Paradise Child Care to others - it is a happy experience for the children. read more

My son loves Shahnaz! He started with her when he was 11 months old and in less than a week he stopped crying when I dropped him off. That's how we knew he liked going, and was comfortable with Shahnaz right away. He's been there about a year now and is always happy when we pick him up, loves his friends there and has learned so many songs, the ABC's, numbers and so much language! She keeps the play area very clean and organized and I am always impressed that even when the kids are all playing it isn't chaos. My son learned a cleanup song and sings it at home when he puts away his toys. She also does fun art projects for all the major holidays and celebrates birthdays! She runs a very structured day, cares very much for all the kids and somehow gets all the kids to nap, eat and drink their milk! We are so thankful we found Shahnaz and feel extremely comfortable sending our four month old next month! read more

We are full time working parents and we have been sending our daughter to Paradise Child Care since October of 2018. It is our first and only kiddo and our child has flourished academically since starting daycare at Paradise. She turns two in February and is already learning her numbers, alphabet, colors, shapes, popular kids songs, and more. Shahnaz has created a very warm and friendly environment for the children and it shows. We never had any issues with separation anxiety ( believe it or not) because our daughter just loves Shahnaz. In fact, when we returned from holiday break you could tell our daughter was happy to see Shahnaz and all her day care friends. The kids get along great , my daughter loves to socialize with the other children in Shahnaz care and it transfers over into her daily life as well. When we drop our daughter off at Sunday school - no separation anxiety - and she LOVES to play with the other kids. Paraside Child Care is such a blessing to our family. Shahnaz creates an environment for kids to learn, feel safe, and socialize with other children. Oh another important thing to note is that Shahnaz is extremely reliable. She has never called out sick or closed her doors unexpectedly - she has her set vacation/holiday list and she provides that to you when you sign up your child. As new parents it was so important for us to find the right fit for our first child and we definitely found a second home for our kiddo with Paraside Child Care. If you are looking for a day care provider we highly recommend Paraside Child Care. read more

We feel so lucky to have found Shahnaz to care for our son. She is great with the children. It's like leaving your child with a family member. She is very loving and has created a warm, playful and safe environment for the children to play and sleep. She has been caring for our son since he was 3 months old and we couldn't be happier. We would highly recommend Shahnaz for your daycare needs. read more

Shahnaz is very nice and helpful. She is taking good care of my son. She has a flexible schedule from 7am to 6pm. I can drop my baby off and pick him up anytime during those hours. I'm happy to see my baby eats well and sleeps well at her place. The environment is nice and cozy. She did a good job taking care of kids. read more

This is the first daycare my daughter attended and Shahnaz is absolutely ideal for infants and toddlers- she treats all kids just like family. She takes great care of kids and her place is always very clean and wonderful. She engages kids with lot of developmental activities.She cares just as much as that relative or best friend that you would leave your child with.I highly recommend Paradise Child care. read more
