This center truly became her second home because of the warm and welcoming environment they consistently created. The communication was excellent, we always received a thorough rundown of her daily activities and a friendly recap from the staff during pickup.

I will forever cherish and appreciate the care they provided for my baby!

We've had such a wonderful experience with this daycare and truly couldn't be happier with the care…read moreour son receives. One of the biggest signs that we made the right choice is how excited he is to go every morning--drop-offs are smooth, and he happily heads in without hesitation, which says everything about how safe and comfortable he feels there. The teachers are incredibly warm, attentive, and communicative. They recently celebrated his birthday, and it meant so much to us that they made it special and shared so many sweet pictures--we could really see how loved and included he felt in his classroom. We also really appreciate the engaging activities, nurturing environment, and the clear effort they put into each child's development and happiness. It's such a relief knowing he is in a place where he is cared for, encouraged, and genuinely enjoys his day. We are so grateful to have found this daycare and would highly recommend it to any family looking for a supportive and positive environment for their child.

We cannot recommend Jodie and Cardiff Family Daycare highly enough! Our son started with Jodie when…read morehe was 16 months old and stayed for a full year. During that time, we saw incredible progress in his development and social skills. Jodie is so creative with her daily activities; she doesn't just 'watch' the kids, she truly teaches them through play. One of our absolute favorite parts of the week was Music Day, where a musician comes in with a guitar to sing with the children. It was a highlight for our son! Jodie has cultivated a wonderful, kind group of children, and the environment is always warm and welcoming. We only moved him because we wanted a Spanish-immersion environment for his language development, but we are so grateful for the love and care Jodie gave our son. She will be missed!

My family and I moved to San Diego for one year while I went back to school and needed daycare for…read moreour then 2 1/2 year old. Coming from out of town and having a change in our routine (with my schooling) were both so stressful, but I found Lj and Baby Steps Home Daycare and our son couldn't have been happier. He's 5 now and still talks so much about Lj. I asked for his help with this review and he said from Lj he learned patience, to be a good friend, and he loved riding the Dora bike. From my patent perspective and as an educator, it was the small details that set Lj apart. She understands this developmental stage. She supports kids in finding their voices as friends, she supports learning through play, and attends to the safety and well - being of the kids like they are her own. I can't write all of the ways that Lj was amazing, but in short, my son was loved all day while I was at school. She knew who he was, valued him, and supported his growth. We had such a wonderful experience. We visit San Diego once or twice a year and always have to make sure to go see Lj. This lasting relationship our son has with her is such a gift to us as parents. I was so nervous before that year in San Diego and will be forever grateful for the ways in which Lj made that year such a joy for my son.

I cannot recommend Kids Castle enough! My 2-year-old has been attending since last September, and…read moreit has been the perfect fit for our family. Before finding this wonderful at-home care facility, my child had a poor experience at a local large daycare, which left us nervous. However, she settled in very quickly at Kids Castle and is now happy to go in and play every single day. The small team of women who run it are incredibly professional, polite, and caring. Their communication skills are excellent, which makes me feel so relaxed leaving my child there. The quality of care and activities is top-notch. They cover everything from reading, counting, and learning colors to dancing, cooking, arts and crafts, and vital social-emotional learning. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found Kids Castle and truly hope we can stay here until my child reaches TK!

Miss Leigh is the absolute best! Our family is so lucky to have found her. I cannot say enough good…read morethings about her daycare. Most importantly, she really treats your kids like they are one of her own. I do not think you can get that anywhere else. She truly loves our kids. My daughter has been there for a year and a half and has learned so much. She is always so excited to see Miss Leigh. My son just joined Miss Leigh two months ago and he is thriving. I was so nervous about sending him at 9 months because he was a tough baby and had a very strict schedule. Miss Leigh made it an easy transition because she listens to your needs. Truly the best decision we ever made was sending our kids to Miss Leigh's Daycare.

Miss Leigh is beyond incredible and hands down the greatest daycare provider ever! No, seriously,…read moreshe is the BEST! She is not just a daycare provider but have become a second home for our son. This may sound cliché, but as a working parent who must be gone for 9-10 hours of the day, where you send your child does become their second home and where you send them is obviously important. In comes Miss Leigh! We were beyond fortunate to have found such an amazing daycare right off the bat. My son started going to Leigh when he was 5 months old. As a new parent, you are always reluctant to entrust someone with your child's well-being. From day one, she communicated with us regularly and provided a thorough update of his day. This was reassuring to know that our child was in great hands. Leigh is approachable, nurturing, and responsive to any concerns you may have. She spends the time to get to know you, your family and most importantly your child. Our son thrived under her care. To be honest, he hated leaving during pick-ups because he had so much fun! She fosters an environment that was FUN, educational, but more importantly, she taught our child how to be a kind human. Leigh helped guide us through the nuances of parenthood. She became our family and we honestly couldn't have survived new parenthood without her. We are so fortunate to have found Leigh. She is an all-around AMAZING person and is all you could ever want in a daycare provider.
