About Us
Welcome to Fairwood Kids Playhouse, my educational home daycare and preschool in Bowie, MD. I'm the owner and lead teacher and I have a decade of experience in child care. I'm CPR and first-aid certified as well as M.A.T trained, so I can administer medication to all children attending my program. I was a babysitter for 10 years, but I decided to open a licensed daycare so I can offer affordable and nurturing care to children, while also caring for my own. As a mother of 2 myself, I can assure you that I will treat every child in my care as if they were my own! I run the family daycare with my assistant who's also a mom herself, and who has 10 years of experience.
About Our Daycare
My daycare and preschool is open year-round between 7:00 am and midnight, Monday through Friday. I provide full-time care for infants as young as 6 weeks, as well as toddlers up to 5 years old. Standard tuition covers care during our regular hours of operation 7:00am-6:00pm, but special evening care 6:00pm-midnight can be arranged.
Curriculum
My child care program uses the Creative Curriculum, developing my little students' creativity and critical thinking skills, and boosting their self-esteem. I have a spacious indoor space where children can freely move and play. I also offer extra-curricular activities (focusing on Arts & Crafts and Early Academics). In addition to English, I speak Urdu, Punjabi and Hindi and upon your request, I can expose your child to these foreign languages (please note though that my daycare is not a bilingual program).
Location
Fairwood Kids Playhouse is in the Fairwood community of Bowie, MD. I'm right off Fairwood Pkwy, near Northeast Branch Park and Collington Branch Park. Your commute to work will be convenient since my facility is centrally located between Washington DC, Baltimore and Annapolis. We're within a few minutes of these major roads: John Hanson Hwy (route 50), Annapolis Rd (route 450), Collington Rd (route 197) and also the major highways I-495, I-295 and I-97. The Largo Town Center and New Carrollton metro stations are a 15-min drive away, offering a ten minute commute into Washington DC. Thanks for reading my profile, please send an email or call to book a tour. Im excited to meet you and your little one!

They are amazing with our daughter. Our daughter has been there since she was 6 months. She's doing so well developmentally and reaching all her milestones. They do story time and fun activities around holidays. We get daily pictures and videos. Would highly recommend.

Very good experience at this daycare. The owner and her staff are very professional and communicate with the parents daily via daycare app, phone call, and/or text of your child’s progress throughout the day, school closures, and any supplies your child may need. Our son started in her care when he was just 3 months old up until he was about 10 months old. He no longer attends the daycare because we moved out of state to be closer to family. But if we still lived in the area, our child would certainly still be enrolled at her daycare. She really treats all of the children as if they were her own. Her facility is clean, neat, and provides an “at-home” nurturing environment that all the kids seem to love. If you are looking for a nice daycare with small child to teacher ratio and a nurturing, fun-filled learning environment, I recommend this Family Child Care Services.

I absolutely love this provider! She is simply amazing at what she does. She helped me feel at ease when dropping my son off and has been great these past five months. She is involved and really cares for every child and there learning development skills as well. Knowing my son is in good hands makes this working momma’s day easier.
Response from the provider:
Thank you so much miss Whitney, really appreciate your nice wordings!!

My 17 month old child is two weeks into his experience in this daycare. Since beginning, he has accepted more foods during meal times and shown increased interest in books. He is also attempting to make word sounds more than before. We believe that the daycare experience has a lot to do with these recent developments. The provider and her co-provider are warm, kind, and positive. This provider sends photos, videos, and other detailed updates about my child during the day. I like the main caregiver and the co-providers style of interacting with the kids. This provider has a very expressive style of reading to the kids which engages them during story time.

This provider has cared for my child for a year and a half now and we have been very pleased. The facility (a converted in-law suite) is clean, well-lit, and well-maintained. My child is given time for structured (going through letters, songs, taking turns) and unstructured play. I know that my child is in a safe place when I drop her off- This provider takes great care with sterilization and noting the health of the kids (she will close if a child is sick for safety reasons). I also personally like the small size because it provides more individualized attention. In short, this is an excellent daycare and I highly recommend it.

This provider is an exceptional caretaker for my infant child. At first, I was reluctant to leave my child with someone who wasn't a family member, but her attentiveness and personalized approach to each child is truly commendable. I feel at ease during drop-off and pickup because I know my child has been well taken care of. She also provides consistent updates on the DailyConnect app, so I know my child's daily activities. Additionally, she provides occasional videos and photos if I had a concern about my child. Lastly, I would absolutely recommend her to friends and family because she is a great communicator and I know my child is in great hands!

My son has been going to this daycare since 2017. It has become a second home to us and the staff has become our second family. They encourage my child everyday and help him create a strong sense of self esteem. The provider and her team are always willing to go the extra mile to help e especially while my wife and I are working. This daycare is one of the greatest decisions I have every made for my son. I would recommend it to every parent without a second thought.

This provider is very loving and caring towards children. She is like a second mother to my child. My child can’t wait to see her on a daily basis! My child learns very good things about different cultures and education that will help him as he gets older for kindergarten.

This is the BEST day care I have sent my daughter to. I’ve been sending her for over 2 years now, The provider and her staff are the best. There is not a single dull moment here and my child absolutely loves going in everyday! My daughter has also learnt all her alphabets and numbers through singing at the daycare. The provider makes learning fun for children at the daycare without putting any sort of pressure upon them. And that’s exactly what I wanted for my daughter. In addition to seeing how my daughter has thrived in this environment, I love the values they are learning here. It is so important to me she is raised in a loving and nurturing environment that encourages them to think for themselves and develop self-confidence. This home daycare is not just a daycare, it’s a house full of love, and smiles!
