    This place is legit. I was apprehensive when my wife scheduled us for a free class, having never…read moreheard of this place. But I was pleasantly surprised. They give a great class on how to find childcare, and they have a large collection of people looking for nanny-shares and also nannies looking for work.

    This is my take on how utterly unprofessional my experience with this establishment. Take a look at…read moreanother one star complaint below. When I called, I was just trying to explain what I need--- and then the person hung up on me. I then called again and the person with the name of Jennifer - said she was not the one who initially answered my call. I called the reception area. I asked for info on licensing and this Jennifer proceeded to say rudely - "Are interrupting me because I won't be able to help you." This is after I told her someone just hanged up on me. My observation is that they do not like to answer phones. It is absolutely baffling how these people are getting state funding and partnership but has lack of professionalism. Also, this Jennifer connected me to a phone extension of someone who was out on vacation since March. The voice mail said the person is returning on April 3 but it is almost May. I don't know if this Jennifer is trying to make a joke. Since I am not exactly sure if the person is still working there. I called again and then I was yet connected to another voice mail. I will call again.

    My child has been at Mitzy's for almost 2 years, since he was about 20 months, and it has been a…read morewonderful place for him. The whole space is lovely, and is somehow exciting and calming at the same time - very much in keeping with Mitzy's own way of being. All of the maestras are warm, caring, and communicative, and have supported my child through many things, including potty training and the death of a pet. They are also great at supporting social and emotional learning. The kids have lots of time for unstructured play but also plenty to do each day - all kinds of activities including arts and crafts, sensory play, gardening, special birthday celebrations and holiday-related activities. At the end of the day, the kids are thrilled to see their parents, but none of them seem to want to go home, and I always want to linger in the backyard for a while, too. Highly recommend this program.

    I am so happy and grateful that I found SquareCare! My son started the program soon after turning…read more2. Until then, he had only ever been cared for by his dad, grandmother, and me - no babysitters or nannies - so being away from us was a big adjustment. From the very beginning, the team at SquareCare was incredibly understanding and supportive. Mitzy created a thoughtful transition plan that truly set my son up for success. At first, I was able to stay with him at school so he could get comfortable with the new environment and teachers. Then, we gradually increased the time he spent there alone. Finally, once we all felt confident that he was happy and secure, he began napping at school as well. Now, my son loves school and attends full days three times a week. Mitzy, Yessi, and Tiara are so patient and genuinely invested in his success. We're all so proud of his progress and growth. I highly recommend this program! The teachers are not only caring and wonderful with the children, but the environment is exceptionally clean and inviting. Plus, there's a bunny and chickens--such a fun and unique touch that the kids absolutely love!

    Stacy Wilkinson at Sweet Peas Agency came to my rescue when I needed a short-term nanny placement…read morewith almost no notice and a rather mediocre budget. I called on a Thursday, met Stacy the next day, interviewed one very qualified candidate that evening and a second very qualified candidate on Saturday morning. By Monday morning, I had a fantastic nanny helping me with my two kids. The five-week time period that I needed help might have stymied another agency, but Stacy was absolutely calm and professional about finding me someone to help out while my husband was out of town. The process was easy, and she even let me work out a payment plan. Stacy checked in with me after the nanny placement began and stopped by a few weeks later to follow up. She knows how to be hands-on as well as professional--a sometimes challenging balancing act. Her experience as a nanny is invaluable to the process of screening candidates and also screening clients. During one of the nanny interviews--which she attended personally--she very quickly figured out how to distract my rambunctious 3-year-old while letting me observe the nanny interacting with my semi-fussy infant. At one point, the nanny called in sick, and Stacy offered to step in personally to help me out that day. Now that's dedication to client satisfaction. I am very happy to recommend Stacy and the Sweet Peas Agency to any family needing quality childcare assistance. (And P.S., she accepts PayPal, a major plus in my book!)

    When I had my twins I knew I needed to find a nanny but research and paperwork is not my strong…read morepoint. I liked that sweet peas was a small local agency. I called and left a message and Stacie called me right back. She came to my house, snuggled my twins and carefully went over what I was looking for. I had thought I needed a live in nanny but didn't really want someone to live in. This is because of my ridiculous schedule so I needed someone with extreme flexibility who was willing to do overnights. Random weekends and was committed to always being on time. I loved the first nanny Stacie sent but went on to interview a few more just in case. I ended up hiring the first woman I interviewed and she has been everything I could have hoped for. Any even minor issues that have come up Stacie has been an excellent resource and sounding board both for me and the nanny. I'd highly recommend her and her company to anyone (and I have)

    Do you have a toddler that needs to be cared for while you go off to work? Worried that your lil'…read moreone will have separation anxiety? Always thinking about what to prepare for Johny's lunch box?? Forgot to buy snacks for Jenny's afternoon munchies? Well look no further! This place is amazing! LMCCC is a wonderful place for children. Starting from 8am until 530pm your kiddo will be closely watched in a fun, open, caring environment by their energetic bilingual...if not even trilingual teachers and staff in Cantonese, English, & Mandarin. The children are grouped by age into ~10 per group. Our kiddo loves Teacher Cindy! She is so attentive and gives us a summary almost everyday at pick up time and also helpful advice on how to continue working with our kiddo at home. Don't worry about your lil' one going hungry. They provide a breakfast and hot lunch daily along with a snack of low fat milk and fruits for example. No longer will you have to worry about what to buy and pack into Johnny's backpack. Do you have a busy work schedule all year long? Another bonus is LMCCC is basically open all year long. They take very few breaks or holidays unlike the public school district! Is your child already in kindergarten? They also have after school program to watch your child until you get off from work. Want Jenny to learn a foreign language? They have weekend Mandarin classes too! All are very affordable!!! Culturally Chinese centric the kids learn some basic Chinese writing. When special Chinese holidays come around they also celebrate and teach the kids about the holiday festivals. For instance, they invited a Chinese lion dance group to perform this past February! I thought the kids would freak out but they all seemed to enjoy immensely. Not to say that everything is taught in Chinese. They also speak English and teach the kids how to sing the American National Anthem too! So don't worry if Johnny doesn't speak any Chinese. He will be speaking to you in kiddy Chinese in no time! Anyways, I could blabber on and on about all the excellent points of this preschool. From how clean and immaculate the facility is to the friendly staff who open the lock doors at drop-off and pick-up. The gated parking lot is also a plus that gives you a sense of security for Jenny. OMG! I forgot about potty training too....they have that ability too! What more could you ask for? If your lil' one is about to turn 2yo, call LMCCC to schedule a tour and get to meet the principal and teachers. I promise it'll be fun!
