OPENINGS: We are full at this time.
Welcome to Barcroft Kids Playhouse, our family-oriented home daycare in Falls Church, VA! We’re located right off Columbia Pike (route 244), near the intersection with Lincolnia Rd (near the Barcroft Plaza, in the Lake Barcroft area of Falls Church). I’m the owner and main caregiver and I have 30 years of child care experience. When I had my children, I decided to stay at home so I can look after them myself. This experience inspired me to open my own child care program to fulfill my passion of caring for children, and help parents in our community who are looking for quality, affordable child care. I run my daycare with my assistant and we are both CPR and First-aid certified, so you can be sure that your child is safe at all times. I also hold a Bachelor’s degree in Economics. We are a team dedicated to creating a warm and friendly environment where each child can feel loved and secured. I believe that children learn through play, so we follow the Play-based learning philosophy. This approach promotes socio-emotional, physical, cognitive as well as academic development. We always strive to make our daycare a happy place for kids and offer fun activities to engage them as much as possible. We offer age-appropriate educational activities, arts & crafts, reading, music, song & dance, painting, and much more! Kids will also love our fenced backyard playground packed with safe playing equipment. In addition to English, we speak Urdu/Hindi and Punjabi and at your request, we can expose your little one to these foreign languages (however, we’re not a bilingual program). Barcroft Kids Playhouse is open from 7:30 am to 5:30 pm, Monday through Friday. We can provide full-time care for infants as young as 1 month old, as well as toddlers and preschoolers up to 3 years old. Thanks for visiting our profile, please send an email or call to book a tour!

Our son is so happy every time he sees this provider and they are good friends! It gives us so much joy to see how she cares for our infant. She is very communicative and sends us photos every day and is very prompt with responses and clarification on any changes. Again, it's not enough to express how good she is and better left for firsthand experience.

Our son started coming here when he was 5 months old, & we really like it! The fact that he smiles & reaches his arms out to this provider as soon as we arrive every day is all the assurance we needed of how happy and well-cared for he is here. Obviously as an in-home daycare, the facilities aren't as impressive as a bigger institution's, but it's more than made up for in this warm, cozy & loving environment.

The first day I picked up my daughter from this provider I noticed a difference instantly. My daughter was counting more, putting more words into sentences, and I could tell it was the right decision. She is safe when she’s there. This provider communicates well with me regarding my daughter and is actually reliable. It took me a year just to find someone who can be trusted, is reliable, and affordable. The room is always clean as well and she... more

This provider and her assistant are wonderful daycare providers!! They provide a fun and safe environment for my 17 month old, and he always runs right in when we take him. I would recommend them to anyone!

Our previous provider unexpectedly closed. We were left in a frenzy searching for a new part-time provider for our LO, then we can across this provider. She put our minds at ease and welcomed us with open and loving arms. My LO looks forward to going to daycare everyday, and cries when it's time to go home. He has learned so much since he first started 2 months ago, including ABC's, colors, new words, songs, and so much more. I couldn't be more... more

I have went through quite a few daycares with my son and I must say the time spent at this daycare has made her my favorite caregiver so far. The provider has so much love for jaylen and ensured he was happy while also teaching him new things everyday! She is also very considerate and sent me pictures from how his day went. Her patience and genuine love for kids is what I adore most about her and is what gives STAR daycare a welcoming atmosphere.

I deeply appreciate this provider and the care she has for my child. What makes me feel the safest is that she treats my baby as if they are her own, and makes conscious decisions around their safety. It's almost like leaving your child with a family member. I would highly recommend this provider for care.

This provider has been my baby's part-time daycare provider since she was 3 months old. As a first time mom, I was anxious to choose a daycare but so happy we brought our little one to this place. I can't believe she's 10 months here and she's a year old plus now. We are so thankful that we found this place so close to us. They always provided the best care and love for my baby. These providers are both wonderful - responsible, sweet, kind,... more

We were so fortunate to find this provider and her amazing daycare! Our son had an amazing time the year he spent there and he would run to the door to get in every time we went to drop him off. He was always well cared for and we couldn't have been happier!

This provider has cared for both my children since infancy. My daughter was with this provider until she was 2 and a half and my son still attends. My children enjoy going to daycare every morning and smile and hug her upon arrival! I couldn’t ask for more for my children. The provider has been such a blessing to our family.
