On April 15, 2025, my son called me in tears after another student threw a shoe at him, causing him…read moreto fall. I asked where the teacher was, and he told me she was in the classroom, not paying attention--talking with another staff member. When I asked if she helped him right away, he said no. I had to call the daycare myself because no one from your center contacted me about the incident. No one could explain what happened. I was told repeatedly that no one even knew about it until his father brought it to the staff's attention. Why? Because management was apparently in a meeting dealing with another situation. Is my child not a priority? I'm sorry your staff wasn't supported well enough to do their jobs properly, but that's not my problem--it's yours. Not only did no one offer care, but my son wasn't even sent home with so much as an ice pack. Completely unacceptable. The next day, I brought Trent in so staff could see the physical damage for themselves. I remained calm the entire time--no yelling, no raised voice--but I made it clear I expected answers and accountability. I asked to view the camera footage and was told none existed, despite the video monitor clearly visible in the office. I was told an investigation would be done and I'd receive a call by noon. When I was contacted, I was told my son was lying. That he was playing leapfrog and tripped over another student. No. What we're not going to do is gaslight my child to avoid responsibility. Now it's turned into a "he said, she said," and it's giving full-on cover-up energy--overcrowded, understaffed, and trying to sweep it under the rug. My son's story hasn't changed once. I believe him, and I will always stand behind him. Tell me--what does a child gain by lying about being hurt? I also made it very clear: if anything else happens to either of my children while in your care, I will not hesitate to file a police report. Then--after all of this--you send me a disrespectful, accusatory email full of lies and decide to remove both of my children from your center? Because I advocated for my son? Cool. I was two steps ahead of y'all anyway. I handled this situation peacefully. You will not call my son a liar, and you will not lie on me. I never left a voicemail, so that accusation is completely false. Like I said--and I'll say it again--I BELIEVE MY CHILD. I've already filed a complaint with the Office of Child Care. Next step: a police report.

I can vouch for before/aftercare and Summer Camp! The center went as far as taking my son to…read morefootball practice. You just need to pick them up. (Can you say more "you" time?). Also, for the before/aftercare, they do provide you child with breakfast, snacks and dinner. I mean....home cooked dinner! They offer free tutoring (in addition to homework assistance), dance classes, mime, drama and they always have big production performances. Let's not even get started on the Summer Camp! Pay your tuition on time and you shouldn't have any issues.

I was in DC for a 2-day work trip with full-day meetings and needed someone who could come to my…read morehotel so I could continue exclusively breastfeeding my 8-month-old between sessions. Honestly, it's really hard to trust a service like this with your baby, especially in a city away from home. I had a few things in place so I could keep an eye on my daughter throughout the day, and because of that, I know she was genuinely well cared for. Alison from The Educated Babysitter was great. She arrived on time, took my daughter on walks outside, changed diapers, and kept her happy and comfortable throughout the day. By the second day, even the hotel staff knew my baby and would stop to say hi. The only reason I'm taking the time to write this review is because I know there are other moms in similar situations trying to balance work travel and motherhood, and trusted childcare like this can make all the difference.

My daughter entered Loving Care Day since she was two and just arrived in the U.S for a month. At…read morethat time, I really worried about she cannot accommodate the environment cause she can not speak English at all. But now she can communicate with others without obstacles, I really appreciate that, and she also learns a lot from the Daycare. Every time I pick her up, I always expected she would ask me something she learned from the class. My daughter really enjoys attending school. Thanks to Ms. Gloria and other Ms. She had such a wonderful experience there and inspiring her creativity and curiosity. I would recommend Loving Care Daycare to anyone who needs childcare. It's more than childcare but a good friend indeed.

Throughout the day they sent me pictures and videos of her and they still make it their business to do so today. The pictures&videos shows you what your child is doing and learning throughout the day along with updates of what and when they are eating, when they use the bathroom, and more! I have been nothing less than satisfied with this Childcare Center and all that they have provided for my child and I, and not to mention....the staff plus their communication is all a parent could ask for. You can tell that what it is that's being built....is from the heart Below are pictures of my 19month putting her puzzle shapes in the correct space, as she does this...she is also saying her colors. These pictures are clips from a video but it won't allow you to upload videos, just pictures. I know that if it was not for Lean On Us Unity Childcare Center then my Daughter would not be as advanced as she is. I want to thank LOUUCCC from the bottom of my heart for all that has been installed into my Daughter, we appreciate you all x10!

My daughter has been at this daycare for a little over a year. We are so lucky to have found Ms…read more Carla and Little Miracles. As a new mom and coming out of the pandemic, I was more than anxious to send my little one to a daycare. Little Miracles has been wonderful for my daughter and for our family. When we were first looking for daycare centers, we were struggling to find a center that we could afford and one that had room. Within an hour of contacting Ms. Carla that first summer, we were able to hear back from her and schedule an appointment to see the facility. At the time, we needed to tour while there were no kids there (of course due to the pandemic), but we were so thrilled by how our daughter took to Ms. Carla. When our daughter started, Ms. Carla assured us that our little one was happy and cared for by sending picture updates and all the fun little crafts home. She was active, learning, and playing. Our little pandemic baby was so fulfilled. Besides for all the crafts, ABCs, counting, now days of the week and months my little one knows (she astounds me every week by the new things she is learning) - Ms. Carla is the one who potty trained my baby and helped us follow the routine at home. Without her, I have no idea how I would have done it. Seriously, she knows kids and she is the professional. Ms. Carla has been steadfast with her Covid protocols and this has helped her daycare stay safe and clean for all kids. The center is much smaller than other comparable centers which is best for our daughter. Ms. Carla and her team is attentive, caring, and treats all kids like her own. As a family, we deeply appreciate her service, her love towards our little butterfly, and her guidance and grace for us as new parents to support us in this journey together.
