The Staff is amazing... - Ms Stephanie is AMAZING!!! She is so kind and very relatable to kids! One of my son was privilege to be in her class. He was so happy to attend school. She kept the communication open and was very approachable. My other son was in Mrs Adrianna class!! My son had behavior issues in one of the other teachers class but when he was moved to Mrs Adrianna class - he changed! She is seasoned educator and works well with kids! She is a great communicator and is so kind! My son can have melt downs and she was able to calm him and get him back on track... that's what I call a veteran teacher. Someone who can deal with all type of children with patience and show them love in the process! The location can be off-putting for some but inside this Building is a GEM ! They kept the facility clean and everything is self contained. I never worried about my kids health or safety! The play area is huge! The eating area and sleeping quarters are super cute! I'm sad that we had to cut our youngest kids year short (due to COVID19 and my youngest will be going to kindergarten in the fall). I will truly miss this place and the staff!!! Thank you for your support!!!

The hardest part about going back to work is finding care for your child. I was a stay at home mom,…read moreso I was worried about how my 1 year old daughter would adjust to a new environment and be away from me for long periods of time. We tried another daycare but it wasn't the right fit. Then we found Shama at Learn'n' Play. It only took 1 week for my daughter to adjust; soon enough I was trying to convince my daughter to stop playing so we could go home at the end of the day. Shama would send pictures and updates through the day, so I always felt reassured she was safe. It's been 2.5 years since and there's no one else I would trust with my kids. I told Shama as soon as I was pregnant with my 2nd to make sure she saved a spot for him. Now that maternity leave is over, I feel relieved knowing my infant son is in good hands.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Learn and Play Daycare. From day one, Shama and Nori…read morehave treated my son like he is part of their own family. Their genuine care and attention give me peace of mind every single day. This daycare truly prioritizes learning -- I'm often surprised when I try to introduce something new at home, only to find my son already knows it! Whether it's flash cards, vocabulary, or flying kites, it's clear they are always finding fun, hands-on ways to teach. One of the first things I noticed was how quickly manners were being instilled. My two-year-old consistently says "please," "thank you," and even "bless you" after someone sneezes -- something that melts my heart. Meals are cooked fresh daily, and I'm incredibly grateful that my only child is getting so much outdoor play, socialization, and joy in a loving environment. Holidays and birthdays are celebrated, which adds to the warm, community feel of the daycare. I also really appreciate the photos I receive while I'm at work -- they help me stay connected to my son's day and bring a smile when I need it most. Thank you, Shama, for creating such a safe, nurturing, and enriching place for my child to grow.

Nayana isn't just a caretaker... she's a toddler whisperer, snack sommelier, and tiny human growth architect all rolled into one. Somehow, she manages to create a space where our kids feel loved, seen, challenged, and gently nudged toward being actual geniuses. Thanks to her thoughtful curriculum, they're hitting (and let's be honest, crushing) every developmental milestone like it's a competitive sport. Letters? They know them all. Numbers? Counted, sorted, and probably color-coded. Shapes? Mastered. Arts and crafts? We're not sure if they're learning or training to become Etsy entrepreneurs. There are so many masterpieces coming home, we've had to annex fridge space and consider installing a tiny gallery wall. She wraps learning in play so seamlessly that the kids don't even realize their brains are growing faster than their shoe sizes. And the best part? They love every minute of it. Drop-offs are easy, pick-ups are joyful, and she provides nutritious snacks and meals (which is a significant stress reliever)!! Nayana has made Gateway the gold standard of early education and care. We don't know how she does it -- but we're endlessly grateful that she does.

She cares for our toddler as if she were her own--providing healthy meals, cozy sleeping cots and blankets, endless toys both indoors and outdoors in her spacious backyard, and engaging, age-appropriate learning activities. She even makes payments simple with Zelle, which is such a thoughtful convenience. Although this was a temporary arrangement, our toddler absolutely loves spending time with Nayana and the other children. Her dedication, flexibility, and genuine love for the kids have given us so much peace of mind. Nayana, we are deeply grateful for all you've done for our family. Thank you for caring for our little one during such a difficult time--you are truly appreciated!

We liked the playground in particular as it was very well shaded by trees. The smaller class sizes created a more intimate learning environment. Most importantly, Ms. Sheela and her team of teachers were all great. Our daughter started there at a young age and grew tremendously in her time at Future Kids. All the teachers from Ms. Eshani, to Ms. Paula and Ms. Patty were all extremely kind and patient. They always took time to discuss how the day went and how our daughter was doing. It was very apparent that they cared about each child and their individual progress. We always felt our daughter was truly cared for and in good hands. Thank you Ms. Sheela and team for everything!

The love, care, and affection she received here have shaped her into who she is today. As parents, it gave us complete peace of mind knowing she was in the best hands away from home. From day one, Shiromi went above and beyond. She helped establish a healthy sleep pattern, encouraged good eating habits, and always made sure children who weren't feeling well stayed home to protect others. Safety and well-being are always her top priorities. What we appreciate most is how much personal attention each child receives. Shiromi takes the time to understand their needs, talents, and interests -- whether it's recognizing when a child might need special care, encouraging their strengths, or guiding them to be social, responsible, and respectful of others' boundaries. She also keeps parents well-informed with clear, thoughtful communication about their child's progress and daily experiences, which we found incredibly reassuring. Gracey had so much fun during her time here, while also learning and growing emotionally, intellectually, and socially. She made wonderful friends and created memories that will last a lifetime. Shiromi's attention to detail, nurturing nature, and dedication to every child's growth is unmatched. We feel truly blessed to have found her daycare, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to any parent seeking a safe, loving, and enriching environment for their children.

Ms. LaJoy also helped with potty training and the progress was so fast. It's clear how much care and effort goes into teaching and caring for the kids here. I feel very comfortable leaving my children in her care and would recommend this daycare to everyone.

As a parent, it's always nerve-wracking to leave your child with someone new--but the moment I spoke to her, I felt completely at ease. Her space is warm, safe, and clean, and you can tell she genuinely loves caring for children. My little one was happy and content when we picked him up, which says everything. It was clear he felt secure and well cared for. Thanks to LaJoy, we were able to attend our event with peace of mind, knowing our child was in excellent hands. I would absolutely recommend Rimson Family Child Care to anyone looking for nurturing, trustworthy care--especially if you're in a pinch and need someone who truly understands kids. Thank you again, LaJoy--we're so grateful!
