OPENINGS: We are full at this time. Next infant opening is anticipated in June 2024. Next opening for children over 2 will be in June 2024!
Welcome to Potomac Lakes Children's Place, my licensed in-home daycare and preschool in Sterling, VA. I’m located in the Potomac Lakes neighborhood, right off Algonkian Pkwy (route 1582), near Potomac Falls High School. Your daily commute to work will be very convenient since I also have easy access to Cascades Pkwy (route 1794), Countryside Blvd (route 1570), and Harry Byrd Hwy / Leesburg Pike (route 7). Please contact my daycare through CareLuLu to schedule a visit and get your registration fee waived!
About Me:
I’m the owner and main caregiver of this beautiful and intimate daycare, and I run my program with my 2 assistants. I’m a licensed provider with 15 years of experience with CPR & First-aid certifications. I’m also MAT trained, so I can administer over-the-counter and prescription medication. I’m a parent myself, I mom to 3 children, and I know the struggles of every parent when it comes to finding the right daycare for their little ones. At Potomac Lakes Children's Place, we treat each child as if they were our own and we provide plenty of individual attention. Our goal is to make each child in our care to be happy and feel loved and safe at all times.
Program:
My family child care and preschool program follows the play-based learning approach, allowing children to learn through play and educational activities such as arts & crafts and music. If weather permits, we go to our fenced backyard playground where we spend our outdoor playtime. I’m open all throughout the year from 7:00 am to 5:00 pm, Mondays to Fridays. I offer full-time care for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age kids up to 12 years old. For parents only looking for occasional child care needs, I can accommodate drop-in care. Peanut and tree-nut free lunch and snacks are already included in the tuition and provided to all kids attending my program.

We absolutely love the owner and her daycare and team. Our little girl is always happy there and it's a happy calm, but fun, environment. The space is big and there is a big back yard in a safe place for the kids to play. Highly recommend.

This daycare has been a wonderful experience. She is very prompt in communication and as a first time parents, this was very important to me. Her facilities are clean and the other children she watches over seem to enjoy their time there. Our baby also is very content with her and comes home happy every day. I'm glad I chose her for our baby

My husband and I say often how lucky we were to find this caregiver! Our daughter absolutely loves daycare. She has the biggest smile when we drop her off in the morning and when we pick her up. She is the absolute best!

We have two kids (ages 18 months and 3) with this caregiver and I can't imagine sending them anywhere else. She provides a safe and fun place to play. My kids come home happy everyday with fun art projects, stories, and lots of songs. At pickup time you can see all the kids are happy. She always communicates and responds to text messgaes quickly. I can't recommend her enough.

The owner and her assistants are family. We have been with her for nearly 5 years through 2 of our 3 children. Leaving your child with someone as just an infant is so difficult, but we felt comfortable from the start. Both our children thrived, adapted, made friends, and most importantly, were truly loved. One of our children has an extra medical need, and she worked with us through it the entire time. We found her through multiple referrals and... more
