Our daughter has been at Mighty Oaks for almost a year now and started at just 5 months old. I was…read moreapprehensive about an in-home daycare and having someone else care for my daughter for the first time - but since day 1, all my worries resolved. Tamarisk and Banessa create the most loving, whimsical, caring environment for the kids. My daughter LOVES it there. She spends the entire day outside, she is constantly learning, she eats better than I do I am SO grateful that I found Mighty Oaks and I could not recommend it more highly!!!

We found Mighty Oaks when my son was 20 months old and I was eagerly looking for a part-time…read moredaycare for him before starting pre-k. We were thrilled to hear about this new, in-home daycare as it was my son's very first childcare outside of the home and it was the perfect transition for him. Tamarisk had us come over for a tour and her warm demeanor and charming facility had us feeling right at home. She has created such a magical facility for children, from the cottage playhouse, to an adorable outdoor tent, fruit trees and garden - it's a wonderful place for children to explore and play. It put my mind at ease to know that my son was in a safe, small & nurturing environment. Tamarisk was great about sending messages, photos & videos on WhatsApp throughout the day so I always felt updated on what they were doing. The photos she captured were also the highlight of my day - she takes the most incredible photos of the kids playing (better than any I take) - and we have several now have framed in our home. She made a variety of nutritious foods as well - so I know my son always had a delicious and healthy meal while he was there. I am so grateful for the year he spent at Mighty Oaks, and now that he's at preschool I miss it. Cannot say enough great things about our experience at Mighty Oaks. We have the best memories from our time there and are still friends with Tamarisk and her family.

Danielle Monroy is the owner and director of Creative Care for Children, and she does an amazing…read morejob! Both of my children attended Danielle's, and both my kids loved it. Danielle has a wonderful focus on art and outside play - in the summer it is not unusual to see a handful of kids laughing and playing in the sprinklers in her gorgeous back yard. Her facility is amazing - a HUGE backyard with a Victorian wooden playhouse, lovely grass area, children friendly vegetable patch and flower garden, multiple climbing structures, and a paved bike path. Though technically she's a childcare and not a preschool, she still takes the time to teach the older children their basics. My son attended Danielle's until kindergarten, and I felt that he was well prepared for his first day of real school. Do yourself a favor and go check her out - you'll and your child will be happy you did!

We searched and searched to find the perfect preschool for our 2-year-old. We toured all the…read morehighest rated schools in SB and weren't excited about any of them. And then we found Danielle. We couldn't be happier! She's caring, attentive and it's abundantly clear that she adores the kids. It's not a standard school - it's out of her home, in a residential area. But, she has a fully equipped, expansive backyard where the kids run free and explore. Danielle has a master's degree in early childhood education and believes in the importance of outdoor learning. There are numerous daily art projects and most are nature based. Inside, there are wooden Montessori and Waldorf toys as well. I've also noticed that she spends a lot of one-on-one time - teaching and reading to the kids. We are so glad to have found this affordable, small little school where our daughter has thrived.

I have been using Growing Babies for my infant care for the past 2 years and I am so grateful for the loving care I've received for my baby. Just today I witnessed one of the workers with some infants and she was holding court to the laughing and smiling babies. I saw nothing but joy and not one crying baby. The toddlers were smiling and there just was such peace. As a parent I have no complaints about the care of these babies. What a glorious place, it almost makes me wish I was a baby again so that I can receive such awesome care! God Bless Growing Babies. And keep on doing the great work you're doing Heather! You and your staff are the best!

Child's Play is truly a hidden gem. We're on our 2nd child growing up in this wonderful little…read morespace. There is a big focus on outside play and creative arts/crafts and cooking (pre-Covid) that our eldest son really enjoyed and thrived within to include weekly art and dance classes for the kids. The teachers really encourage independence and creativity within the confines of a group setting of children that really learn the important early lessons of respect and appreciation for one another. Our oldest son was wonderfully prepared and ahead of kids at the Kindergarten level entering pre-K and knew how to read/write his name, count and do simple math in this program that carved out a "K-class" for the older elementary school transitioning kids. Donna, Daniel, Laurel and Lindsey are wonderful teachers and I would HIGHLY recommend this program for any parent looking for well rounded loving learning environment for their little.

He also spent 3 days at Child's Play. In one of those days, our son wanted to go outside. He repeatedly asked but he was not permitted to step outside. His frustration grew and grew. According to Donna, he attacked a teacher at the school. I can only imagine the extreme frustration at that point. I feel that if someone or anyone had taken the time to explain or just sit with him that this would have never happened. Perhaps they were too busy?? Maybe they did not notice?? She also said he was on the spectrum?? It turns out that he was just low in English (he is bilingual) and is in fact, suffers from a bit of Einstein's Syndrome!! After a fun filled three days, we quickly got him out of there!
