OPENINGS: We are full at this time.
Welcome to Morning View Kids Place, my licensed home-based daycare and preschool in Alexandria, VA. My child care facility is in the Island Creek neighborhood, right off Morning View Ln and Beulah St (near Island Creek Elementary School). My child care facility is conveniently located to all commuters since I'm within easy access to all major roads: Telegraph Rd (route 611), Fairfax County Pkwy (route 286), and the I-95 Henry G. Shirley Memorial Hwy.
About Me
I’m the owner and main caregiver of this loving and nurturing child care and preschool program. I’m a mother of 3 and I have over 10 years of professional experience, so you can be sure that your child is in good hands! I’m also CPR & First-aid certified and have worked in a hospital for five years. I also stay abreast of my field and regularly attend trainings and seminars on early childhood development.
Program
Morning View Kids Place is open throughout the year between 7:30 am and 5:00 pm, Mondays to Fridays. I offer a Play-based early learning program and full-time child care for infants as young as 0 week up to 3 years old. Due to possible allergies, I run peanut and tree-nut free environment.
Facility
My facilities are beautiful and include a large indoor playroom, full of developmentally age-appropriate toys and educational materials. We also have a fenced playground to have fun outdoors when the weather is nice. I also have a dining area for mealtimes and snacks, as well as a separate nursery for naps. Thank you for reading my profile! Please call or email through CareLuLu to schedule a visit, I look forward to speaking with you and meeting your little one :)

My family recently moved to Virginia and had just a couple of months to get care for our three month old (that's when I would return to work). The owner was amazing before and during the selection process. It's been three months and our little one is happy when we leave him and happy when we pick him up. All the caretakers are gentle, caring and very warm with the kids. Our family and social support is limited in this state, and having the owner and the caretakers there for our child has given us a peace of mind that I thought I would not find. As a new mom I highly recommend them.

I am pleased to write a review for Mrs B. This Day Care has proven to be reliable, safe and responsible. All the teachers go beyond their duties to make my son feel safe and cared. Mrs B. and the other teachers not only bring professionalism as day care providers, they care and bring the attention and love child needs. I highly recommend this family day care for your family.

This provider is amazing! Her day care is super clean and inviting. She has a big back yard for little ones to run around and burn off that extra energy. There is a small group of toddlers in her care which is really great because we feel that they get more one on one time with the teachers. Her day care feels like home and not like a facility. which we absolutely love about the daycare. Since starting at the day care our son has not come home with a cold or an injury. The teachers take great care of the children and their well being. Especially during these times of a pandemic. We feel very safe sending our child to this provider and her care takers.
Response from the provider:
Thank you so much Polina!!

Highly recommended daycare. The provider and her staff are professional, caring, and thoughtful! She not only cares for our child daily, but has consistently provided helpful tips/guidance when asked. The daycare provides for a very clean environment and they care for all kids and always follow up with parents! My daughter looks forward to seeing this provider every day and I appreciate that she is in a safe and caring environment.

Everything about this Child Care has turned out to be perfect beyond our imagination! We feel so very lucky to have found her and that she had a slot available for our little Summer Bean. She was the first daycare we interviewed/toured and we knew from the moment we left her house that she would be the one. We toured 5 more afterwards and absolutely nothing compared. She is so warm, kind, knowledgeable and so great at what she does. You can tell off the bat that she loves children and caring for them. I can say the same about her assistant too! Summer smiles so big when we get there every morning, she loves it there, and this provider and her assistant are vocal about loving her too which makes me so happy and proud. Her development and milestones progress excel while under this provider's care, I was shocked that within the first week she was improving her motor skills by leaps and bounds. I could go on and on. Thank you!

We can’t say enough good things about this daycare. The provider and her staff are very attentive and my daughter is smiling everyday when we drop her off. Since starting there, she began crawling and is now walking and talking some at the age of 11 months. They also provide additional information that is very helpful, as we are new parents. This provider is very straight forward about any questions or concerns. The daycare itself is extremely clean at all times, which is most important considering the current Covid environment. We would definitely put our next child here without a doubt.

We cannot say enough good things about our experience with this daycare! Our son was with this provider for 2 years, starting when he was 4 months old. He had so much fun at this facility that we usually had a hard time getting him to come home. We had a good feeling about this provider from the moment we met her- she is warm, kind, and goes above and beyond to make sure your child’s individual needs are met. She became like a member of our family and we felt as if our son was a member of hers. Her assistants are wonderful as well - very attentive and patient. The daycare space is very welcoming and has plenty of engaging toys and games. Our son always wanted to show off what he was playing with and learning.

This is a great childcare provider. She really takes care of the kids as if they were her own. Her place is beautiful with dedicated spaces for infants and toddlers. She not only provides care, she also ensures that the kids have a learning experience. As a first time mom and with no family in town, this provider has been a great help providing guidance on how to navigate each developmental stage.

We have been with this caregiver since our son was 12 weeks old, now he's a year and a half. She was the first provider we interviewed, and after seeing countless other providers and centers, we kept comparing everyone else to this provider and decided she was the one for us. We are so thankful to have found her. The facility is great, always clean and full of happy kids. My son gets so happy every time we drive up to her house - and this is a child who is otherwise somewhat shy and reserved. It's so great to have the piece of mind that he is being well taken care of by this provider and her loving staff. Being a working parent is hard enough but knowing your child is not only safe and well cared for but is also genuinely happy is priceless. Could not recommend her more. We are excited for her to care for our new baby in the spring as well.

We feel so lucky to have found this provider. When we first met her, we were all immediately at ease. She has offered great advice on feeding, sleeping, reaching developmental milestones and health, even from our first meeting. She helped get our son on a nap schedule, which seemed impossible, and gave us great tips as we began to introduce solid foods. She clearly cares about all of her children. The facility is always clean, organized, child-friendly and clearly a professional environment.

This day care is the best. We knew we loved this provider from the moment we met her. She is caring, patient, and loving. I was so nervous to leave my 4 month old with someone other than family but after that first day I felt like she was family. I love the big smile my little one has when I drop her off in the morning.

When I was 6 months pregnant with my first child, my husband and I searched in great detail for daycare in our area. Based on many reviews and recommendations, we decided that we wanted nobody else to care for our child but this provider. Luckily, we were able to get a spot for our child despite her popularity and long waitlist. 3 years later she has become family and a 2nd home to my 3 year old and now also for my 1 year old. We have been 100% satisfied with how well our children have been thriving, learning, as well as the communication that she keeps open and clear between parents and her staff. She is extremely accommodating to each kids’ needs and always offers a wealth of knowledge and experience in helping parents out with any issues or desire for improvements in various areas with their kids. My 3 year is currently on a long waitlist to enter a nearby preschool for a class of just 3 year olds but while on the waitlist this provider has provided her and other kids her age with the right daily curriculum that a preschool would offer in order to ensure that they are on track with the same educational level as any other 3 year old that is in preschool.

I can attest that this childcare program is absolutely wonderful! A friend referred me to this provider and even though I was nervous about leaving my 6 week old baby with anyone, I felt immediately at ease after meeting this provider. She sat down with me and answered all of my questions and gave me a thorough tour of her daycare. She is warm and sincere and runs a tightly organized ship. She is from a large family and is a mother herself to three young children so she has immediate knowledge and years of experience in carrying for children. She also previously worked in a hospital so I know she is very competent in caring for the health needs of the children. She is located in Island Creek (next to Kingstowne) and keeps everything in tip top shape. Her two assistants are well trained and great with my daughter. Every time I drop my daughter off, she happily holds her arms out to the provider and her assistants. and when I pick her up, I come in to happy little faces.
