We unfortunately have to relocate our daughter to a daycare closer to our home but if we lived in this area, she would definitely stay with Marla until she's ready for school.

Marla is responsive, flexible, and I love the way they support the kids to share and treat each other kindly. At one point we thought it would be beneficial for our child to go to preschool but after a few months in that setting, we returned to Marla and we are so happy with our decision. It really feels like a family. Highly recommend.

Where do I even begin. Miss Dilu and Miss Dil of Fern Family Daycare they are like our second…read morefamily! The passion, dedication, and love for what they do shows right through how they interact with the children in their care. Our first born son came into their care when he was a little over 10 months old. Prior to committing to Fern family daycare, we spoke to Ms Dilu, and she showed us the day care and spoke to us of what they do. She pretty much walk us through what we will be expecting as we left our eldest in their care, which was very reassuring as a first time mom. Our eldest had a few health issues, especially with allergies, but they were very accommodating and caring towards him. They helped him grow into a happy and sweet boy, who likes to play outside and sing. Aside from their care towards our eldest, they also extended their time and care to us, the parents. When I was pregnant with my second, I had to do an earlier c-section than what was planned, and they were there supporting us. Came our second son, he came in to their care when he was a little over 5 months old, and they welcomed him with open arms. Our second, as he learned to walk, he was very curious and likes to explore. Per Ms Dil, he was very independent and curious, so they would keep an extra eye on him. Our second born is quite the handful, but still they regard him as a very inquisitive, active, and happy boy. Our eldest spent his toddler years in their care, and, when he started Pre-K and until now, he would still say "Ms Dilu and Ms Dil will go to his school together." When we would pick up our youngest, prior to him starting preschool, our eldest would like to come down and say hi to Ms Dilu and Ms Dil and give them a hig hug. Now that both our boys are in school, it makes us appreciate all they have done for the boys and our family. Honestly, we don't know how we would have done it without Ms Dilu and Ms Dil. Everyday we are thankful that we found them, and they have played a huge part of our boys and our lives. Their thoughtfulness, love, and care for what they do makes it a bitter sweet goodbye. Our family loves Fern Family Day care, especially Ms Dilu and Ms Dil!

Ahh the idea of day care especially as a new mother was quite stressful to think about! Thankfully,…read morea friend of mine brought all four of her children here so I was at A's bringing my daughter. She was 13mo old when she started but Dilu and ms Dils were amazing they took care of her with so much love and care. She also learned so much while being there like her colors and alphabets and behavioral aspects like sharing and much more. I ended up taking my daughter to a preschool when she was two and half because she was advance for her age and we had a school much closer to our house but I believe her transition to preschool went so smooth because of the seed that was sown at Fern Daycare! We have a new baby on the way and so grateful we have a go to daycare! Also they do alot of arts and crafts of course with lots of help from the teachers :)

Unfortunately, it closed down this year when the owners decided to sell the property so she decided to open her own daycare. She's very sweet and my daughter loved going to her and playing with other kids. She has a treasure chest and the kids get to pick an item when they are well behaved :-) I have to say it's so hard to find someone you can trust and feel comfortable leaving your child with. We've had a couple of bad experiences with daycares when our daughter was just 7 months. Some daycare owners just don't care about kids, I don't even know why they are in business! Ms Norma always made us feel comfortable leaving our daughter with her. She just started kindergarten, otherwise we would still be going to her. If you want peace of mind and someone who truly cares about kids and is passionate about what she does, check out her daycare, I highly recommend it :-)

My daughter recently aged out of Baby Bubbles Infant Care after turning two and we've been so sad…read moreabout having to move on. She had been with Ms. Patty and her team at BBIC since roughly 5/6 months old. The care she received here truly felt like an extension of how her father and I care for her at home. As a first time mom, I was so nervous to leave my tiny baby with someone outside of the home but after our first meeting with Ms. Patty, my husband and I knew we had found the perfect match. Baby Bubbles specifically offers infant care, so only a small group of babies/children will be enrolled at any given time. The ratio of caregiver to child is often 1:1, with each child receiving lots of love & care tailored to their specific needs. Our daughter had to go through the helmet process (IYKYK!) and everyone at BBIC was more than willing to work with us through the process. Our daughter definitely developed some really special bonds while here and was quite attached to everyone who cares for her at BBIC. She arrived every morning excited to be greeted at the front door, and couldn't wait to jump in with her playmates. She even cried at times when I would arrive to pick her up at the end of the day! By the time she "graduated" at two years old, she had learned all the basic sign language, could sing her ABCs and could even count to 10 in both English, and Spanish! She actually still says "mas" when she wants more lol Her caregivers, and the little friends she made here, were really the only thing she'd known outside of her dad and I so we were truly sad to leave - I cried after we picked her up on the last day! This really is such a special place and you definitely get the sense that you're part of a little family.

I would highly recommend the BBIC team to any families in the area

5 stars is not enough for Lilly's daycare. My son has been going to Lilly's for a few months now…read moreand absolutely loves it. When we drop him off every morning he runs into her place with excitement, and when we return to pick him up he doesn't want to leave. Lilly has been in business for almost 30 years and it shows. Her house is a perfect sanctuary for small children. Plenty of play areas indoor and outdoor. She has a garden with fruits and vegetables that she feeds the kids everyday. She also makes everything from scratch and gets most her groceries from the local farmers market. She goes above and beyond for these kids. She concentrates on educational activities and brain games, doesn't allow screen time, and has them outdoors more than half the day. You won't find another daycare like this anywhere, I can guarantee it. Words cannot describe how fortunate my family is to have found Lilly's daycare.

Being that this would be our little ones first time in a daycare we were very cautious and…read more meticulous about the process. We wanted someone who would care for our son not because it was their job but truly loved doing it! We were over the moon when we found Lilly. She has not only checked all the boxes for what we were looking for in a daycare. She has far exceeded them. We just knew from the moment we met her that she would be a perfect fit to care for our little one. He immediately gravitated towards her which is unusual for him when first meeting a new person. After our tour of the daycare our little one showed his approval by blowing kisses to Lilly as we left. My son is beyond ecstatic every morning once he gets to Lilly's house. All the horror stories that we hear of toddlers crying when you leave them at daycares is yet to happen. My son is filled with joy once he arrives and doesn't even think twice about us leaving him. Her home is set up with endless activities for the kids to do like drawing/coloring, basketball, soccer, slides, too many toys to name, books for fun/learning and my favorite part which is the outdoor space. Most of the time, the kids are outside getting fresh air and being active which I believe is so important for them versus being indoors unless the weather permits it. There are so many things that I could list which makes Lilly's daycare a wonderful second home for our little one. She is nurturing, caring, she makes homemade organic cooked meals which saves us so much time, her home is always clean/hygienic, hands on learning/Montessori inspired, pretend play (e.g building forts) and no screen time is allowed. Her daycare is a perfect home away from home for my little one. If you're lucky as us to have your little one cared by Lilly you'll know what I mean when I say, "We are so grateful to have found her and feel like we've hit the jackpot!" :)

A True Gem - Daily Love Family Childcare…read more Our daughter Ava started attending Daily Love Family Childcare when she was just 19 months old, and she stayed until just before she turned 5 and graduated on to TK. Looking back, I can say without hesitation that choosing Ms. Tigiye's daycare was one of the best decisions we've ever made for our family. From the very beginning, Ms. Tigiye welcomed Ava with open arms and a heart full of love. Her calm, nurturing presence created a safe and joyful environment where Ava could thrive. Ava often would run into daycare with a huge smile on her face, excited for the day ahead. That kind of enthusiasm speaks volumes about the warmth and care she received daily. One of Ava's favorite parts of her time at Daily Love was the arts and crafts projects they did nearly every day. She would come home proudly showing off her creations--paintings, collages, seasonal crafts--and we could see how much thought and creativity went into each activity. These projects weren't just fun; they helped her develop fine motor skills, express herself, and build confidence. Ms. Tigiye and her team (especially Miss Mati!) are truly exceptional. They foster a curriculum that balances learning, creativity, and emotional development. Ava learned her ABCs, numbers, colors, and songs, but more importantly, she learned kindness, patience, and respect. The values instilled in her during those formative years have stayed with her, and we credit much of her social and emotional growth to the loving guidance she received at Daily Love. The daycare itself is always clean, organized, and welcoming. Their little grass yard is perfect for outdoor play on sunny days, and the indoor space is filled with engaging toys and learning materials. Ms. Tigiye also provides meals and snacks, which was a huge plus for us as busy parents. What truly sets Daily Love apart is the sense of community Ms. Tigiye creates. She celebrates every milestone, holiday, and birthday with genuine joy and care. She communicates frequently with parents, sending updates, photos, and videos throughout the day. Seeing Ava's smiling face in those updates gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected even while at work. We feel incredibly lucky to have found Daily Love Family Childcare. It truly became a second home for Ava, and we will always be grateful for the love, care, and foundation Ms. Tigiye provided. If you're looking for a daycare that feels like family, nurtures your child's growth, and fills their days with joy and creativity--look no further. Thank you, Ms. Tigiye (and Mati), for everything. You will always hold a special place in our hearts.

Ms. Tigi's years of experience, her passion for childcare, paired with her knowledge, calm demeanor and love for all the babies and kids that come through her door are few of the many reasons we love to take our daughter here. I know she is in a safe and nurturing place. Everyday, Ms. Tigi & Miss Mati open their arms (and hearts!) with love & positivity to the children. They create a curriculum that fosters learning, creativity, physical and social development. Our daughter, now 16 months loves Ms. Tigi & Miss Mati and is always looking forward to going to "school". It's amazing to see how much she has grown under the guidance of Ms. Tigi. She has played a huge role in our daughter's development including language skills, counting, learning her ABC's, colors, singing & dancing to name a few but most of all instilling the value of good manners & respect. The nutritious lunch and snacks provided everyday is an added plus! Ms. Tigi has COVID-19 protocols in place making sure to keep everyone healthy and safe. Ms. Tigi truly cares about her children and families, she creates a sense of community, attentive to every since child and his/her needs; conscientious of celebrating milestones, birthdays, holidays, and overall very friendly and pleasant. She frequently communicates with the parents throughout the day. We get updates with pictures & videos throughout the day and its really gratifying to see a smiling photo of our daughter knowing she's having a wonderful time. We couldn't be happier with our decision to be part of the Daily Love family. I tell everyone I know about this daycare gem. I feel like I hit the jackpot. Thank you, Ms. Tigi for providing a loving, caring & cultivating environment each and every day!

The love, care, and affection she received here have shaped her into who she is today. As parents, it gave us complete peace of mind knowing she was in the best hands away from home. From day one, Shiromi went above and beyond. She helped establish a healthy sleep pattern, encouraged good eating habits, and always made sure children who weren't feeling well stayed home to protect others. Safety and well-being are always her top priorities. What we appreciate most is how much personal attention each child receives. Shiromi takes the time to understand their needs, talents, and interests -- whether it's recognizing when a child might need special care, encouraging their strengths, or guiding them to be social, responsible, and respectful of others' boundaries. She also keeps parents well-informed with clear, thoughtful communication about their child's progress and daily experiences, which we found incredibly reassuring. Gracey had so much fun during her time here, while also learning and growing emotionally, intellectually, and socially. She made wonderful friends and created memories that will last a lifetime. Shiromi's attention to detail, nurturing nature, and dedication to every child's growth is unmatched. We feel truly blessed to have found her daycare, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to any parent seeking a safe, loving, and enriching environment for their children.

We feel very good about sending our daughter here, knowing that she is being cared for with love and thoughtfulness. Mariel's prior background in teaching is also a huge plus!
