About Us
I'm the owner and main caregiver of this nurturing and high quality child care and early education program. I'm a licensed provider with 11 years of professional experience. I run the daycare with my assistant who has 16 years of experience, and we're both moms! We treat every child in our care as if they were our own. Your little one is safe with us since we're CPR, First-aid & MAT certified.
Philosophy
Caring for children is very demanding, yet just as rewarding as any parents would know. We work hard to develop a caring and trusting relationship with the children. Our aim is to provide a nurturing and responsive environment, where the focus is on the child's need and establish what is best for them through routine.
Curriculum
At Fair Oaks Early Education Daycare, we model and rewards positive social behaviors, as well as promote respect and appreciation of differences. The program includes the Montessori Method of teaching combined with best teaching practices of the 21st century for Early Childhood Education.
We also engage our young students in fun, educational activities such as tracing, coloring, ABCs, arts & crafts, cutting, pasting, etc. Our program also offers a specialized curriculum for each age group that focuses on developmental milestones.
Program
We operate all year-round from 7:30 am to 5:30 pm, Mondays to Fridays. We offer full-time care for infants as young as 8 weeks, as well as toddlers through preschoolers up to 5 years old. All kids attending full-time are provided with peanut and tree-nut free lunch and snacks, which are both included in the tuition.

We couldn’t be happier with our daycare choice for our son! The love, care, and dedication to our child’s well-being is unmatched. We appreciate the daily communication at drop off and pick up, in addition to the new skills our son is learning everyday. The caregivers take time to build relationships with each child and it has created a wonderful community for our son.

We are so glad to have found this in-home daycare for our son who started around 8 months old. The caregivers are so great with communicating and making sure our son is well cared for. It’s been such a relief to find caregivers who we can trust and are reliable!

We sent our son when he was around 13 months. we were nervous but the teachers really made the transition easy. He is now almost 2 and feels like he has learned so much at this daycare. I love that they take advantage of good weather to have kids play outside with water tables/toys.

We immediately knew this was the provider for our son during our tour. The space is clean engaging for the kids. She and her assistant are so kind and clearly love what they do. Our son loves getting dropped off every morning and we don't feel like we need to worry about his safety or if he is being cared for. I couldn't recommend them enough.

We brought our son to this daycare when he was already 10 months old and we were worried about him being able to transition well and acclimate, but after only a couple days he was doing super well! He was playing, napping, and eating. He's been attending for about 2.5 months now.
He loves the caregivers and the environment. Every morning he reaches for his teachers and can't wait to go play. The play areas are very spacious and the main area... more

Our 4 year-old has been attending this daycare since she was only a few months old. The education, structure, life-teachings and overall attention and love she receives far exceed our expectations. Having a mother that owned a successful daycare in Fairfax County for over 25 years, I see a lot of the aspects in this daycare that made my mother's daycare successful. If I had to point out one of the strengths that resonates with me more than any,... more

Our daughter truly loves it here! She was comfortable right away with these providers, and they always treat her with the utmost kindness and patience. It's apparent already how much she is learning and developing by coming here, and as parents it's comforting to know that she's in a safe, healthy, and social environment during the workday. We look forward to watching her continue to grow here!

This daycare is exceptional. My daughter has been enrolled for over 5 months now. She is learning new things every single day, she loves her teachers and is always mentioning their names when she home.
They are truly exceptional in the way they teach the kids, they do a lot of activities and really work on their developmental skills. They care about the kids and communicate well with the parents.

The provider and her team have taken such good care of our son for the past two years. He looks forward to daycare every day and I am always confident that he is being well taken care of. He is constantly learning and exploring at this Family Child Care :)

My daughter has been going to this daycare for over two months now. She has adjusted so quickly and loves her teachers.
The providers are great, and so good with the kids. My daughter learned so much in such a short period of time. She loves it and is happy to go there.

Love, love, love this daycare! My 7 month-old smiles so big every time I drop her off. I am amazed at how excited she is to be at “school” every day and the staff are so caring and affectionate. I feel like this is just an extension of family. I’m also very pleased with the daily structure and learning environment. I feel very fortunate to have found this gem of a daycare.

This provider had watched both my boys, one 5 years ago (until he went to Kindergarden) and then my youngest for the past 3 years. You can see how much this provider actually loves all her kids. From when I drop off to pick up she always has a smile on her face. When it comes to food, it is all healthy and homemade, not just from a can! I can't say enough great things about her.

My daughter is now 2, and has been here since she was 4 months old. She is very happy, loves going to "school", loves her friends, and says "please" and "thank you". She knows her shapes, and is good and drawing them. She is a friendly, well-adjusted child who is curious and loves to learn. I credit her daycare for a lot of that.

We love this provider and all the staff!! The only reason we had to leave was because we moved to NC, otherwise Abram would have stayed. The most loving and caring staff.

I visited almost a dozen in Home and large center daycares and can tell you that no other place gave me the instant comfort and trust I felt at this school. The provider and her team of caretakers are the sweetest and you can tell the genuinely love children. They are SO patient with my strong willed boy and he’s really been thriving since starting here. So glad I found this daycare!

We feel so lucky to have discovered this daycare! Our son loves all of the people who work there and tells us about the fun things he does each day when he gets home. We feel that he is safe and loved, and he is learning many things from the curriculum and from interacting with the other kids. He also has excellent manners (which we attribute to this daycare, since none of our other kids picked that up ;-) ). He has been going to this daycare... more

We have had our 15 month old daughter in this provider's care since she was 6 months old. If we weren't moving out of state, I'm sure our daughter would remain with this provider until she was ready for kindergarten. This provider is an excellent caregiver who treats our daughter as if she was her own. The daycare space is clean, organized, and full of interesting toys and materials. We've loved how our daughter was able to interact with... more

I had 2 horror stories in two different childcare centers so I was very diligent in while researching for a new daycare and I was extremely nervous. I was blessed to have found this place, the provider watched both my girls the youngest just a few months old just like a mother would. I wouldn't go anywhere else. I have referred to of my friends to this daycare and they are both very happy.

After being a stay-at-home mom to my three older children, to say I was nervous about putting my baby (#4) in day care is a huge understatement. This daycare provider came highly recommended by a close friend and so my husband and I decided to interview her. After spending some time talking to her we felt much more at ease, she is incredibly warm and clearly adores children and loves her work caring for them. It only got better once we actually... more

I love the teachers here! You can tell how much they love the kids and that's all I ask for from a daycare provider. When someone cares for your child as much as they do, no matter what happens they will be sure your child is taken care of like their own.

After a few bad experiences with in home centers, I was sure I'd never go to one again. But, I am so happy with this daycare. I am so glad I gave it one more shot. My son loves going there and he is learning so much. It's very clean so he rarely gets sick. The staff is so gentle and sweet and I know he is loved and cared for while there.
