This is a review of the back-up care program too - it was a TERRIBLE experience at so many levels…read more In short, the day before I left for an overseas conference the backup care I had arranged for my son fell through. In addition, you don't get to talk to the person who will care for your family member until 2 hours before the care starts. So you are basically entrusting your family member to a complete stranger whose qualifications and experience are unknown. I am shocked the company I work for would use such a dodgy service.

Our sitter was Sarah and she was amazing! She did such a great job keeping all 3 boys entertained, they enjoyed her so much as well. You can definitely see that she is great with kids and has a joy for them. I would recommend her over and over again and we will use her again next time we are in town

We were fortunate to have Rhonda in the past, and currently Kristina has been caring for our daughters on a weekly basis for the past several months. Kristina is absolutely amazing, and our daughters look forward to her visits! She involves them both in all sorts of fun and educational activities, and is very creative; we are always impressed with the artwork the girls make with her! She has even travelled to help care for our daughters when they were visiting Grandma's house. We wouldn't have survived this year without Kristina and Joanna's Nannies!

We have been absolutely thrilled with the quality care from Little Hand Child Care! We feel a lot…read moreof gratitude for how the owner and her staff take the time to get to know each child, and really make them feel at ease. Our son started there when he was 15 months, and is now coming up on 2.5 years; I wouldn't think about sending him anyplace else. One of the things that we love about it, is that they not only combine educational programs into the week that they host, but they also bring in 3rd party instructors for enrichment like music and yoga. It's really amazing! We read with our little boy all the time, but when he came home knowing how to count to 10 before he had turned two, the credit was clearly due to Jordanna and her team at Little Hand. As a first time parent, I wasn't sure what to look for or to ask about when looking at daycare. Where I landed was choosing people that I felt I could trust. I trust Little Hand completely, and that has just grown over time. Other things: There is an active chat group for parents, so we can have our little ones play more outside of daycare. There are parties for birthdays and holidays! Home cooked meals, that are healthy and nutritious. And, there are so many smaller things- like the time there was construction on the street and my son got taken down to see the trucks, which made his week- that make this is a special place. We also often get photos of our little guy throughout the week, in which we can see all the things and fun he is having. We are really happy that our son is there.

It's not just a regular daycare, they're really awesome with the kids…read more Jordanna is the sweetest person with my baby. She goes above and beyond to make sure she's happy and healthy. I have seen other daycares and Jordanna's is really different. She takes care of my baby with love, and I'm so grateful for her. The pricing is also very fair. We totally recommend.

From the very beginning, Linda has been incredibly caring, nurturing, and attentive, and we always felt confident knowing our girls were in such loving hands. Both of our daughters genuinely enjoyed going to Linda's daycare and looked forward to spending time there. Linda created such a warm, welcoming, and happy environment where they felt safe, loved, and cared for. It's not easy leaving your children in someone else's care, but Linda made that decision so much easier for us. We will always be grateful for the love and care she gave our girls and would highly recommend her daycare to any family looking for a caring and trustworthy provider.

We've had such a wonderful experience with this in-home daycare. Our family has been with her for…read moremany years, starting when our oldest daughter was just two years old. She attended for about two years, and then our younger daughter, who is now four, also attended for about two years. We've always loved the small, home-based setting. There is a small group of children, which allows for plenty of individual attention and creates a warm, comfortable environment. The children receive lunch each day, have opportunities to play and learn, and are always happy, healthy, and well looked after. The daycare is very clean and well maintained, and the caretaker is kind, friendly, knowledgeable, and experienced. She has extensive childcare and educational experience, and it shows in the way she interacts with the children and creates a safe, nurturing, and positive environment where they feel comfortable and happy. As parents, we've always had peace of mind knowing our daughters were in such caring and capable hands. We're very grateful for the time, attention, and kindness she has given both of our girls over the years. If you're looking for a clean, safe, nurturing, and welcoming daycare for your little one, we highly recommend her.

From the very beginning, we felt that he was in a safe, nurturing, and caring environment, and it gave us so much peace of mind as first-time parents. All the teachers have been incredibly kind, attentive, and wonderful with Ari. He started at 5 months old and it has been so special to see him grow, learn, and become comfortable there. He always smiles when we drop him off and pick him up. We are truly sad that our time at the daycare will come to an end--not because of the experience, but simply because our family is moving to Petaluma. We highly recommend Little Stars and Jessica to any family looking for a warm, caring, and trustworthy place for their little one. Thank you for everything you have done for Ari and for our family!

When I was looking for a daycare before my first was born I had no idea where to even start and was terrified of leaving my daugther with strangers. Little Stars was by far the cleanest and most organized of all the daycares we toured. Jessica communicates wonderfully and lets us know if there are any issues. The staff are so warm and loving and know exactly what each child needs each day. Watching my three year old grow there has been a delight. I love that the program is bilingual and she has become very proficient at Spanish. The play based curriculum with lots of singing and dancing has made learning fun and taught her more than I could imagine for a three year old. If you're looking for a daycare you can trust and feel comfortable leaving your kid everyday this is your spot.
