We have many activities to entertain and stimulate their learning ranging from the mother goose curriculum, to simple play time with other children. We have excellent references from other parents from the past as well as current parents.

I have submitted a review before- but just realized the heart values weren't where they should be! Paula and her facility get 5 hearts all the way across! Both my children attended since they were babies- my oldest from 9 months when we moved here, my youngest from the time he was 8 weeks old. With both, I felt great peace about them attending here. Paula is phenomenal with cranky colicky babies (my first) and on the go curious toddlers (both of mine). Paula provided top notch care on all levels throughout their development- nurturing, reading to them, talking to them (in 2 languages!), playing music, a great mix of free play and focused skill time for the preschoolers. Her Montessori based pre-K was perfect for my number obsessed son. They always had outside time too- appropriate for age and weather. Both of mine are now thriving in elementary school and I know much of that can be attributed to the loving, nurturing, routine based environment provided by Paula.

We are so happy with our choice for daycare. Paula is kind and loving, but is able to be firm and directive when needed. Our son loves going to daycare and has grown both physically and mentally. We are excited he is learning and using 2 languages. I can go to work each day knowing that my son is loved and well cared for.

Paula's daycare is wonderful. She watched my oldest from 9 months to kindergarten, my youngest from 8 weeks. I truly had no fear about leaving my children in her care. I knew they were in a safe loving caring environment. Paula loves the babies and they are comforted by her. As they age she provides new age appropriate toys and activities. She provides Montessori style preschool activities and stimulates their creativity. As a bonus the kids are exposed to a bilingual environment. The space is clean and safe and cheery, my only wish would be for more yard space. We love Paula and my kids still love to visit.

Simply put, when you leave your children with this Paula, you don't need to worry. My kids benefited from participating in a stimulating pre-K curriculum in a clean, comfortable and safe home, and were able to develop stable emotional bonds with the caregivers (and fellow students) over an extended period of time. At this daycare, your child is effectively part of a family, and that goes a long way towards developing robust emotional intelligence. The provider sees to it that the little rascals get plenty of exercise, and they're provided with nutritious, USDA-approved meals each day. For me, a key selling point is that students gain exposure to spoken Spanish at an early age, facilitating their ability to gain proficiency in this important language. So, there you have it--at her daycare, your child will develop useful intellectual, emotional, physical and linguistic skills in a nurturing environment, leaving you free to face your workaday challenges without any anxiety about your child's well-being lingering in the back of your mind. She has cared for two of my children over a period of roughly seven years; I would not hesitate to leave my children in her care, and can recommend her services to others without reservation.

Our son started when he was 4 months. As first time parents, we were nervous about our child being with anyone other than ourselves. This provider and her assistant made us feel instantly at ease. They send updates, let us know my our son's nap schedule, what he ate during the day, and anything else we should know. They treat our son as if he is their own! We couldn't be any happier about the daycare service they are running and we know our child is in excellent hands. Whenever we drop him off or pick him up, he has a smile on his face!

My daughter has been attending this daycare for over 1.5 years, since she was 3 months old. The staff are amazing. They always have a lot of attention to give to each individual child and lots of activities for both indoor and outdoor play. Overall this has been a great experience for our daughter.

My daughter has been full time at this facility for over 1.5 years, since she was 3 months old. The staff are absolutely wonderful caretakers. The kids are happy and engaged; they get to spend lots of time out doors playing and have lots of indoor activities for when the weather is bad. An absolutely wonderful day care for young kids and infants.

My daughter has been at this daycare for the past two years. I could not have asked for two better care givers! They care for each child as if they were their own. They are not only being cared for, but they are also learning a lot. This is a fabulous daycare, and if you are currently looking for a place that will care for your own child as much as you would, then look no further; this is the place for you and your family!

This child care provider started caring for my son as soon as I returned to work and continued to provide loving, reliable care for more than six years, as I relied on her for after school care until we moved out of the county. She kept my son on a schedule, fed him excellent food, potty trained him, taught him his ABCs and how to count, and she taught him to speak Spanish. My son is loving, independent and sweet and I owe much of this to her! I've always felt fortunate to have found her. I wholeheartedly recommend this daycare. She's had quite a few kids for whom she has provided long term care, which speaks volumes about the care she provides!
