My son has been attending Skye’s Daycare for three months now and I have to say that Omaira & Blanca go ABOVE & BEYOND what we ever expected and what is offered at most facilities. I spent months interviewing several daycare providers and was not impressed with the quality of care offered & I was getting discouraged. But at our first meeting I was instantly impressed by Omaira’s energy & spirit. My son was instantly comfortable & asked to be held by her mother & coworker Blanca, who has a very sweet & calming presence. This says something because he generally does not want to be held by people he does not know well, and he went to her within minutes after meeting her. When interviewing with Omaira I was impressed that she knew all of the children’s birthdays by heart and had binders full of pictures of the children she has cared for over the years, and had a sparkle in her eye as she told stories about each & their little quirks. It was easy to see that she genuinely loves what she does & she is engaged and paying attention to the children. We are so glad that we found Omaira & Blanca at Skye’s Daycare. They are a vital part of what makes our family work as a unit. My son truly enjoys his time in their care & he is learning so much. We have seen noticeable improvement in his verbal, motor & social skills. The different activities they plan each day keep him engaged & excited to learn. The picture updates throughout the day make us feel close to him and included in his daily activities while we are apart. And the time & effort they put into creating the monthly picture day set ups are above & beyond what we ever expected. The facility is always clean & tidy. Omaira greets us every morning with more gusto than my coffee gives me haha! They work SO HARD & we can not thank Omaira & Blanca enough! I highly recommend Skye’s Daycare to any family looking for high quality care for their little one while they work.

Amazing experience. They treated my children like family. It's incredibly comforting for a parent to trust that their child(ren) are safe and well cared for while at work. That happens here. Emphasis on family and home daycare. Perfect for your little people. The Space is clean, large, child friendly, colorful and very inviting. The daycare is well maintained separate from the family living space which was important to me. Would wholeheartedly recommend

A caring, academic, fun and safe environment for children. Both my children have gone here and are thriving because of it. I would strongly recommend it to anyone looking for a in-home option. They are wonderful!!!

My oldest daughter has been going since she was 6 months old, and will be leaving in the fall to start kindergarten, my youngest daughter has been going since she was 3 months old and is almost 2, and we couldn’t be happier. There has been mostly the same kids/families over the past five years (very little family turnover), it has been fun to watch my daughter go from being the youngest to being the oldest. There is a large daycare area, a separate classroom where they do arts & crafts, a separate sleeping room, and a large outdoor play area. The providers are always updating and improving the daycare, doing what they need to meet the needs (and interests) of the kids. The providers work with the parents and are very caring, responsive, and reliable. They speak English and Spanish to the kids. They don’t watch TV. They have holiday parties and parties for the kids’ birthdays. Almost every month they do photo shoots with the kids, with seasonal backgrounds. Every month we get pictures and videos of our kids. They are always sending home craft projects that they make. Our daughters have learned so much, and are happy going to daycare.

I LOVE Skye's Daycare!!! I have had two children at Skye's and wish I could put my twins there but due to logistic issues it didn't work out. With my first child, I was nervous when I first had to leave him at daycare but that nerviousness quickly went away and I completely trusted them with my child(ren). Omaira and her mother have struck a perfect balance between a warm and nurturing environment and structure and learning. I have grown to love this family and still find myself reaching out to them for advice. I whole heartedly recommend them to anyone.

Our family has been extremely happy with the care our daughter has received at Skye's Daycare for the past three years. This is not your typical daycare, but a very special place for your child to learn, to play, and to grow. It is such a warm and welcoming environment, which is only possible with the creativity and love of Omaira and Blanca, who create imagination and learning centers throughout the facility. We know our daughter is safe, happy, loved, and cared for very well every day. She has also become bi-lingual and speaks both Spanish and English very well without hesitation. She knew the alphabet, all of her colors, could count to 20, and spoke in sentences by the time she was 2. We look forward every month to receiving our daughter's "book," which is filled with the artwork she created that month, photographs of her, and a DVD of her playing or singing or acquiring a new skill. It is so wonderful to have volumes of "books" now highlighting special moments in her life. As working parents, it's so nice to be part of her life at day care. Finally, Skye's Daycare makes each child a prince or princess on his or her birthday. My daughter loves her birthday party, her special crown cake, her birthday present and card from her friends. As parents we love attending her birthday party and the other holiday parties during the year.
