About

CURRENT OPENINGS: All ages!
Location:
Welcome to Neelsville Estates Children’s Den, a licensed home-based daycare located in the heart of Neelsville Estates, a family-friendly neighborhood in Germantown, MD. Our home daycare is easily accessible from Brook Run Drive, just off Germantown Road, with quick connections to Frederick Road (MD-355) and Ridge Road (MD-27). We're also just minutes from Neelsville Middle School, making pick-up and drop-off convenient for busy families searching for quality child care in Germantown.
Program:
We’re open year-round, Monday through Friday, from 8:00 am to 5:30 pm, offering flexible full-time care for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. We can accommodate children from newborns until 4 years old, though note that new children must start with us before 20 months old. We also provide before and after-school care for school-aged children (5 years and older). To support the health and safety of all little ones, our daycare maintains a peanut- and tree nut-free environment.
About Us:
Hello, parents! I’m the proud owner and co-provider of Neelsville Estates Children’s Den. Together with my mother, we run a warm, family-based program rooted in over 27 years of combined child care experience: myself with more than 17 years and my mother with over 10. As a mother-daughter team, we share a deep passion for nurturing young minds and forming strong, supportive partnerships with families. As parents ourselves, we know how emotional and challenging it can be to leave your child in someone else’s care. That’s why we’ve created a loving, safe, and home-like environment where your child will be treated with the same care, attention, and respect as our own. For your peace of mind, we’re both certified in CPR, First Aid, and Medication Administration Training (MAT), ensuring your child’s well-being at all times. We’re excited to welcome your family into ours! 😊
Curriculum:
At Neelsville Estates Children’s Den, we follow a play-based curriculum, because we believe that play is how children learn best. Through imaginative activities, hands-on exploration, and guided learning experiences, children naturally develop critical thinking, creativity, social-emotional skills, and a lasting love of learning. In addition to English, we speak Farsi and Persian fluently. Upon request, we’re happy to incorporate these languages into your child’s daily experience, helping them explore new cultures and build early multilingual skills. We are committed to providing an inclusive, nurturing environment where every child feels safe, celebrated, and inspired to grow. We invite you to come visit us, take a tour, and see firsthand what makes Neelsville Estates Children's Den is such a special place for children and families.

I’m really happy with this day care. The staff are friendly and take good care of my 2 babies. They do fun activities, and my kids learned a lot. The place is always clean and safe. I get updates every day, so I know how things are going. I highly recommend it!

It is always gratifying to pick my little girl up, and see her smiling and enjoying the teachers. I appreciate the care and attention they give to her, and the regular updates we receive.

This place is great for toddlers! It’s a wonderful learning environment for children to thrive and learn. I send both my kids here while I’m working. I was pleasantly surprised that within the first two weeks of exposure to this environment my one and a half year old was able to count to 10.

We absolutely love this daycare. The owner and her staff are so warm and welcoming, and I love how much they adore my son. He always has a big smile on his face when I drop him off and when I pick him up. It's been almost a year and we plan to continue with this daycare as long as we can.

I recommend her, she is a reliable person, my two-year-old babies at first cried a lot when I left them and that generated a little mistrust in me, but now my children stay without a problem and without crying they like to go and that gives me security and confidence they are in a safe place

I would recommend this Family Child Care to any of my family or friends. My children really enjoyed themselves in her care for 4 months. Which was a huge help to us since our previous provider had to take leave to attend to her sick mother. My 1 year old usually would cry whenever he is around new faces or people, but he transitioned so smoothly here. Which was very comforting to me during this change. Also, my energetic 4 year old who attended... more

She was so wonderful working with my schedule when it came to my son and he really loved going. They took such amazing care of my little man and as a first time mom who is so anxious with anyone taking care of him, she made me feel very comfortable. And with the covid pandemic, they were very clean for extra safety.

This provider is amazing. I can be an obnoxiously worrisome parent, but this provider is always willing to talk, send pictures and communicate anything that’s going on with my little one. I trust her and she treats my son like one of her own children. If I have concerns or questions outside of daycare hours she responds quickly. She genuinely cares, and my son absolutely loves her.

Caring, convient, affordable. As a mother of two kids that need child care it was important to me to find a nurturing setting that still allowed them to be individuals. My children are excited for "school" every morning I would highly recommend this child care center.
