About Us:
I’m the owner of this high-quality child care center and early childhood education program. Like you, I’m also a mom, so I can personally relate to your needs and concerns when it comes to finding the best daycare for your little precious one. Your child is safe with us because we’re CPR and First-aid certified and all teachers are highly trained. After successfully running another facility for years, this is my second child care center! Our goal is to create a nurturing, fun learning environment where every child can grow and flourish. We help them to reach their full potential and become lifelong learners. Here at Mount Olivet Children's Academy II, we treat kids equally and as if they were our own :)
Program:
We’re open all year round between 7:30 am and 6:00 pm, Mondays to Fridays. We offer full-time care and preschool for infants as young as 6 weeks, as well as toddlers through preschoolers up to 4 years old. Our program uses the Creative Curriculum and follows the Play-based learning approach, allowing children to learn through play and educational activities. In addition to English, we also teach our kids the Spanish language. This is a wonderful opportunity for your child to become bilingual at a young age. We’re excited about meeting you and your little one! Please contact us through CareLuLu to schedule a visit.

This was the perfect spot for our daughter when she was in the 6-12 mo range. The facility is on the smaller side, but as she wasn't walking, it was actually great because it was perfectly baby-proofed for infants. I like that our daughter still had a lot of room to learn to rollover, crawl, and pull herself up in a safe environment with babies around her age and a little more advanced. The infants typically stay in the backroom and the bigger babies are in the front room. The place is really clean, safe, and the staff is warm and listens. I like that they have strollers and can take the babies out for fresh air on good weather days. Our daughter's face lit up every time she was dropped off. Any time I requested a photo the staff would share throughout the day, which also made me feel confident we were in the right spot. We only unenrolled because we moved away. Some challenges: parking options are limited when picking up and dropping off, food isn't included, and in early 2023 at least, this wasn't the type of facility that had a nanny cam where you could live feed what your child is doing all day (not sure I would want that anyway).

We love this daycare! The only drawback is that it is slightly small, but we're very willing to make the tradeoff for the exceptional, loving care that our baby daughter receives in this location. Teachers are very communicative. She LOVES her teachers and we are so glad we chose to send her here.

While I was first looking for daycares a neighborhood mum told me this center felt like a family, and this was such a good description. I’m a single mum with boy/girl twins, and my little girl has terrible separation anxiety. I was so nervous about leaving her but within a week she was just bubbling with delight and giggles when I dropped them off because the teachers are so lovely, kind and caring. Communication is great, and everyone has been so supportive of my little boy, who has needed occupational therapy, offering to reinforce his exercises etc. I know they are well cared for, love their teachers and friends, and continue to develop so well, which is just about everything I had hoped for!

I have two boys and both of them have gone here. It's been a wonderful experience: my kids love it, the staff is so caring and communicative. I'm so appreciative knowing my children are happy and safe during the day.
