From the very beginning, Enas, Ehab and family welcomed our family with open arms and treated our children with so much love, patience, and kindness. It never felt like we were dropping them off at daycare, it felt like we were leaving them with family. I've so appreciated her guidance over the years, she was truly my "village" since we didn't have family here. Every day, we knew our kids were in a safe, nurturing, loving and happy environment. The communication was always wonderful, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing how their days were going. Our children have absolutely thrived in Enas' care, and we are so grateful for the role her and her family have played in their lives. Watching them grow, develop and learn has been so incredible to watch and they are a big reason for this. The only reason we're leaving is because our family is relocating across the country to be closer to family. If we weren't moving, our children would absolutely still be with them. Leaving them is truly one of the hardest parts of this move. If you're looking for someone who will love your children as if they were her own, I cannot recommend ABC highly enough. We will always be grateful for everything they have done for our family, and they will always hold a special place in our hearts.

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about ABC Child Care and Enas!…read more As a first time mom, sending your infant child to daycare can be daunting. As a professional who works in pediatric healthcare/development, I wanted to make sure my son went to a loving environment that would enrich his developmental outcomes. ABC Child Care was just that. Enas is so kind and knowledgeable and truly made me feel at ease with sending my then 9 month old son into her care. My son has thrived in his development over the past year and I am so happy to have Enas and everyone at ABC Child Care as part of my "village" with raising my son. We are unfortunately moving out of the area and will miss ABC Child Care so much! If we move back before my son is school age, he will definitely be coming back here (if there is room :)). If you value a home environment and loving care for your infant/toddler, look no further!

They both had the most loving teachers that have still kept in contact after we left. They genuinely care about the children and families that attend. It is a loving and caring environment that children are happy to attend. My daughter learned her ABC's, shapes, colors and how to count to 20 which is above and beyond for a daycare (not a preschool). I highly recommend Caterpillar to all families in Marin.

The teachers -- Crystal, Josh, Tracy, Alyiah, and Ashley -- are amazing. My daughter transitioned mid-year, and the way they welcomed her made her feel comfortable and excited to be there. The classrooms are filled with a diverse set of activities and materials to explore, and they have the best play yard I have ever seen. As a mom, the biggest gift was peace of mind. I could leave each morning knowing my daughter was not only cared for, but genuinely thriving. She has grown in confidence and independence, and came home excited to share her day and look forward to the next morning. The contrast from other schools we've experienced was night and day. At MIM, I felt supported as a parent, informed, and confident knowing my daughter's overall well-being was prioritized. It is a wonderful community.

We have been absolutely thrilled with the quality care from Little Hand Child Care! We feel a lot…read moreof gratitude for how the owner and her staff take the time to get to know each child, and really make them feel at ease. Our son started there when he was 15 months, and is now coming up on 2.5 years; I wouldn't think about sending him anyplace else. One of the things that we love about it, is that they not only combine educational programs into the week that they host, but they also bring in 3rd party instructors for enrichment like music and yoga. It's really amazing! We read with our little boy all the time, but when he came home knowing how to count to 10 before he had turned two, the credit was clearly due to Jordanna and her team at Little Hand. As a first time parent, I wasn't sure what to look for or to ask about when looking at daycare. Where I landed was choosing people that I felt I could trust. I trust Little Hand completely, and that has just grown over time. Other things: There is an active chat group for parents, so we can have our little ones play more outside of daycare. There are parties for birthdays and holidays! Home cooked meals, that are healthy and nutritious. And, there are so many smaller things- like the time there was construction on the street and my son got taken down to see the trucks, which made his week- that make this is a special place. We also often get photos of our little guy throughout the week, in which we can see all the things and fun he is having. We are really happy that our son is there.

Ms. Bella and her staff are very attentive to the children's social and emotional needs. Bella puts a lot of effort and imagination into creating daily activities for children to take part in. It was easy to see from pick ups and drop offs how happy the children were to be there and how a ease other parents were in leaving their kids for the day. Another plus of Let's Play is how affordable it is, especially because Ms. Bella provides diapers for the children and prepares them lunch. You could pay more at other daycares, but I don't know that your return, at least for a 2 year old, would be comparable. The only reason we stopped sending our daughter to Let's Play is because we had the unique opportunity to send her to a language immersion program elsewhere. To reiterate, we really really liked Let's Play and we highly recommend it to folks with a young child.
