We feel incredibly lucky to have found Stepping Stone Daycare! From the moment we walked through…read morethe doors, we felt welcomed and reassured that our child would be in loving hands...and in a clean environment m. Monica and her staff are not only professional and experienced, but genuinely kind and attentive to each child's individual needs. Our daughter has grown so much in confidence, language, and social skills since starting here. The daily activities are engaging, and it's clear the team puts their heart into creating a positive and enriched environment. We especially appreciate the photo and video updates throughout the day -- it brings so much peace of mind. If you're looking for a place where your child will be cared for, supported, and celebrated, I wholeheartedly recommend Stepping Stone Daycare.

When we had our son, we spent months searching for the best place for him -- and we were incredibly…read morelucky to find Ms. Monica. From our very first visit, we knew her center was the perfect environment for him. Ms. Monica's center is clean, well-organized, and thoughtfully run. She takes the time to understand each child's unique needs and personality, and her care is full of warmth and intention. We've learned so much from her as parents, and she's played a meaningful role in shaping our son's early years in all the best ways. She also shares frequent updates through the Brightwheel app, which keeps us connected and gives us peace of mind throughout the day. We're so grateful to have found Ms. Monica and would definitely recommend her to others!

Jeanette and her staff are beyond amazing. I don't know what I would have done without this home…read moredaycare. My daughter started with Jeannette at 2.5 and didn't speak much. She was shy and reserved. Jeannette not only helped my daughter come out of her she'll, but by the time she was ready for Transitional Kindergarten, my daughter knew all of her letters, addition, subtraction, most kindergarten sight words, and she was communicating in complete sentences. My son Ian began at 1. He knows so much about everything, has a love for books, and makes friends easily. We just moved to Riverside and he started a private school here. The teacher raves about how well he understands how to walk in a line, shares, and knows so much. I am grateful to Jeannette for helping me raise my babies to be compassionate and articulate, and for preparing them for school.

This review is way overdue...Both of our girls started attending Balsz Family Daycare as soon as…read morethey turned 3 months. We initially found them on Yelp, met with them and felt good about it so decided to give them a try. Turned out it was the best decision we made. Leaving a newborn with someone else is never easy, whether you are a first time parents or not. Jeanette took her time in her busy day to send us pictures and videos of our daughters and let us know how they were doing. If things were a bit hectic during the day she made sure to update us via text or in person during pick up. My girls learned so much at Balsz Family Daycare. Jeanette incorporated learning time in activities such as role playing, singing, reading, arts and crafts and games to name a few. If she noticed something that my daughters needed to improve, she worked with them, told us what exactly she was doing to help them and encouraged us to do the same at home. Jeanette was always open to our suggestions and requests as well. Jeanette prepared healthy homemade meals and snacks (breakfast, mid-morning snacks, lunch and afternoon snacks) daily so we never had to worry about packing food (except bottles and baby food when they were super little). This was a huge plus for us. Our girls were always very happy to see Jeanette and Melina (meeting Melina at Balsz Family Daycare was another huge blessing to us) in the morning when we dropped them off. It truly was their second home. We made the decision to transition our girls to a full time Japanese speaking preschool when they turned 2 to improve their Japanese language skills, but if this school was not an option for us, we would have definitely stayed with Balsz Family Daycare. We are very thankful for everything they have done for our family. Highly recommend!

Tiny Meadow Daycare is worth every penny! I put both of my kids here since they were 1 years old…read more(son is now 6 and daughter is 4). Ms. Gaby, Ms. Letty and Ms. Lizette have been with them since the beginning and took such great care of them. We love the fact that they have a big back yard for them to play and the place is clean. Both my kids were potty trained by 2 years old here. They learned how to read and write their ABCs, their name, read sight words, basic math, and speak/understand some Spanish! My son said TK and Kindergarten was so easy and it's because all because of Tiny Meadows Daycare. I am so thankful to have found this place and sad that we will be leaving here as my daughter will be starting TK this Fall. My husband and I sometimes work long hours so it's comforting knowing that they are in good hands. You will not regret sending your child here if you are able to snag a spot.

Our son started when he was 1yr and stayed with Ms. Gaby until he was 4.5yr. We love the smaller setting and instruction-based learning that we also started our younger daughter when she was 6-mo. Now, both of our kids "graduated" from Tiny Meadows to the local elementary. By the time they started TK, they knew how to write their names, numbers, and basic sight words. We love the in-home environment for our kids, since it feels like an extended family, and how the younger kids learn quickly from older kids, like going potty. We appreciated that Gaby potty-trained both kids by 18-mo, and we just had to reinforce it at home. And Gaby provided breakfast, lunch, and snacks, which was a huge benefit. We miss our Tiny Meadows family. Thank you, Ms. Gaby (and Ms. Lety and Ms. Lizette), for being a second home to our kids for the past 6 years!

She stepped in right away when I had a family emergency, not only watching my daughter but also picking her up from school on short notice. What I really appreciate is the prices,they are reasonable, cleanliness of the daycare and the old-school feeling of genuine care, honestly feels like leaving your child with a trusted relative. My daughter always felt safe, comfortable, and cared for, which gave me so much peace of mind. Ms. Stephanie is very organized, flexible, and understanding of parent's schedules, especially for those of us who don't work the traditional 9 to 5, Monday thru Friday. That kind of support is rare and so appreciated. I am forever grateful. If you're looking for a safe, nurturing, and reliable childcare, Connors Family Childcare is the one.

Hello, My name is…read moreNoel Edwards. I recently was tasked with watching my 2 year old and 11 year old nephews, for 15 days. I will say that Mrs Jennifer was a life saver. She watched my 2 year old nephew for a very reasonable price. She billed in day increments and week increments. My nephew also enjoyed her home. When I would drop him off, he would run back to one of the play rooms and when I would pick him up, we would have to get him from one of the play rooms. Mrs. Jennifer was a blessing. I would recommend her to anyone that is looking for chid care. Thanks Noel Edwards

I was on ft w. him one day & she came in to make him do something , he puts the phone down & somehow the facetime ended but was working fine when she wasn't in the room. She wanted me to have to contact HER anytime i wanted to speak / hear from my 9 year old. ( If there was something going on what kid is going to feel comfortable saying it i infront of the adults ) i mentioned the contract stating kids may bring electronics & she said "a phone isn't an electronic it's a phone" so i asked ok why can't he bring his phone because that goes against the contract she said "oh we just don't do phones here" if you want make your rules up as you go along & tell kids / parents phone aren't allowed & contact HAS to go through you then you need to contact me EVERYTIME my son says to contact me ! Example , my son asked if they can ask me if i can bring him some food , i didn't hear anything about it until my son came home hungry asking why i didn't bring him food . she doesn't let you INSIDE THE FACILITY , & still uses covid as an excuse have to take a covid test even infants every week sometimes late picking the children up from Highland . violates her own contract but when asked about certain things her response is always "refer to the contract" when majority of the time she doesn't even abide by HER contract takes off EVERY holiday ( federal , state , city holidays ) & a couple WEEKS off for vacay & any other day she feels for ex ( was closed 2 days for LABOR DAY 7/1/23 & 7/4/23 , closed 11.10 (FRIDAY) for VERTERANS DAY even though veterans day is on the 11th , a SATURDAY , closed 11/22-11/24 3 days for Thanksgiving when single parents like myself still have to work so i was ALWAYS needing to find a plan be for daycare ( will attach photos ) "recommended" we bring the bigger kids lunch during the summer so she didn't have to feed them 9 year old son hadn't been there (because he doesn't like being there ) in over a month & she was still requesting payment claims she's a 24-hour facility on paper but doesn't do evenings or weekends(will attach photos of texts) and claims "no availability" as an excuse. If your not available hire some help that is because you ARE A 24-hour daycare ! contract states school aged children who receive before school care (pick up and drop off) would have breakfast & my son has yet to get breakfast before she drops him off to school . Most daycare are 6a - 6p , but at 5:31 she'll text "your kids are still here" (will attach photos) & charging late fee's when how am i late if you're 24/7 ?

She and her team use an app to keep you updated throughout the day with pictures as well as what your child ate/drank/napped etc cetera. Truly can't recommend Peas In A Pod enough!!
