We sent our 1 year old daughter to Meeta's DayCare and we couldnt be happier! What stood out to me…read morewas how welcoming, warm and friendly the daycare setup is. Meeta Aunty and her family give individual attention to the children, make it a fun place while still challenging the children to learn. I saw our daughter counting to 5, recognizing alphabets and conversing with other kids by the time she turned 2. I could'nt be more satisfied with our decision to send out daughter to Meeta's Daycare. Our daughter felt like it was her second family, she made some close friends and it has felt effortless for us so far. Meeta's daycare also provides hot home cooked lunches everyday with pizza parties now and then and our daughter loves them. If we have more kids, we know where we will send them to! No brainer for us! 10/10 highly recommend!

If I could give more than 5 stars then I would definitely give it to Lily's Daycare Center…read more Our son went there for a the whole year of 2024 and loved every minute of it. The teachers and the family are some of the nicest people you'll meet. Our son was always happy, didn't want to leave the daycare at the end of the day and made some really nice friends there! Ms. Tang, Ms. Hannah and the others are awesome at taking care of the little ones. They kept the kids well fed and happy, we never had any complaints or issues. We had no concerns ever, our son was happy to enter their facility everyday and that speaks volumes about the love, care and affection he received. All in all, we love the service and the value. We will send our next baby in Ms. Tang's care as well!

My son was born at the beginning of the pandemic and all daycares were closed shortly after he was…read moreborn. When the daycares started to reopen, I started to look for a daycare so that I can return to work full time. I checked a couple of other places before I had a tour with my son at Lily's. It's a very cozy place with a nice backyard and a garden with vegetables and fruits. My son liked the place so much at the tour so I decided to choose this place; besides, it's very close to where we used to live. My son stayed there for nearly two years under the care of Ms. Tang, who was very professional, patient, and caring. I'm glad I made the right choice. Now that my son is in preschool in a different city, we still visit Ms. Tang sometimes when we are nearly. I don't know if my son will remember his stay at Lily's, but I'm sure the happiness he enjoyed there will be an emotional life-time treasure.

This review has been long overdue. It's been three months since my daughter last attended Happy…read moredaycare, and just today while we were playing, she suddenly said, "Hurry up!" -- the first time I've ever heard her say that. I assumed it was something her new teachers say, but she quickly corrected me: "No, no, Andrea says hurry up!" She then went right back to playing, laughing and calling out, "hurry up hurry up!!" That moment alone speaks volumes about how much Andrea means to my daughter. She started at Happy daycare when she was just 1.5 years old. As a first-time mom, I cried on her first day, and Arti sat with me, gently reassuring me that we just needed to give her time to build trust. I can't express how much it meant knowing they understood this was her first time away from home. Within a week, the tears stopped. On her last day, I was the one still in tears because Andrea wouldn't be caring for my little girl anymore. Andrea is incredibly kind and patient. She cared for my daughter with so much warmth that even on weekends, my little one would ask to go see her and this happened more times than I can count. I never had to worry about food it was all taken care of at the daycare. During a medical emergency with my daughter, both Andrea and Arti stayed with her until I arrived, then remained by my side as we figured out the next steps. My daughter still misses Andrea to this day, and I know she will for a long time.

My child started here at 9 months old and has stayed almost two years. Aarti provides a home away…read morefrom home, and my child walks in happily every morning. I appreciate that Aarti sends frequent updates, and we even got a video of my child taking his first steps at the daycare. She also reads to the children daily, and now my child enjoys listening to books at home. When he was younger, he learned a lot from interacting with the older toddlers. As an older toddler now, he has learned how to be nice around babies. Overall, Aarti creates a caring environment for the children to learn, play, and become good friends.

My child has been growing with Ms. Doan and NEST for two years now, officially! The transition from…read more1:1 nanny care to a group setting was not easy to overcome for my then 2.5yo but Ms. Doan did make the transition easier for all of us as we continue to see our child grow physically, mentally, and emotionally. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and a sense of comfort that instantly put all our nerves at ease. If you choose to take a tour you will see current children in their natural environment. Ms. Doan and her amazing staff are kind, caring, enthusiastic, and always find a lesson to teach with every dynamic interaction or situation. Rest assured that your child will blossom at NEST with Ms. Doan, the team, and all other like-minded families wishing for the best and safest childcare options in South San Jose.

We transitioned from a large daycare center to Nest when our daughter was almost 2, and we have been so happy with the level of care and the thoughtfulness of the curriculum at Nest. We love all of the teachers, and our daughter especially LOVES Co Doan! Doan has helped us with so many big milestones over this past year (napping issues and potty training to name a couple!). We look to her as a trusted advisor in our daughter's development. We also love that the children get ample outside time, reading/learning time, and arts time! They even get to pick berries and tomatoes from Doan's garden in the summertime! How awesome is that. We are so grateful to be a part of the Nest family. Thank you, Nest!!!

She attended every classrooms in this fantastic school. She had great time in every classroom (2/3/4 yrs classroom) and loved every teacher. The Director, Ms. Nahzie always hires the best teachers for the children. My elder daughter who is in grade 2 now also attended Discovery Years. Children does a lot of independent activities, make friends and do a lot of indoor/outdoor play. Compared to other daycare, we feel that the teachers genuinely care and love the children. We are very fortunate to find such a wonderful daycare in our neighborhood where our children had spent their most important years with great care and love.

Run & Fun is one of those rare places that leaves a lasting mark on your family…read more We found Run & Fun through a recommendation from a mutual friend, and all three of our children started there at just six months old. Looking back, I feel incredibly fortunate that they did. Our eldest was born during COVID and spent the first six months of her life with very little interaction outside our immediate family. She has always been a sensitive child and naturally hesitant in unfamiliar environments, so I was especially nervous about leaving her somewhere new. But Erika and Carlos had an incredible way of making her feel safe from the very beginning. She connected with them almost immediately, and before long, Run & Fun had become her happy place. She loved going there so much that leaving at the end of the day was sometimes a full-on emotional event! She would cling to Erika's neck and cry because she didn't want to go home. That says more than any review ever could. She wasn't simply comfortable there. She felt loved, secure, and completely at home. And when our two younger children joined, they developed that same special bond with Erika and Carlos. What makes Run & Fun extraordinary is, above all, the people. Erika and Carlos are truly exceptional human beings. They are warm, patient, generous, and incredibly attentive, but most importantly, they have a natural gift for understanding and caring for children. The love they give isn't something you have to wonder about. You see it in the way the children run to them, trust them, and simply feel happy in their presence. They also put so much thought into every aspect of the children's day. Carlos prepared fresh, delicious food that my kids absolutely loved, and Erika made learning fun and engaging, introducing them to letters, numbers, and early learning in such a natural way. By the age of three, our eldest recognised all letters and numbers (in English and Spanish) and could write her own name. And they always came home with the sweetest little pieces of art and crafts. I still have a box full of them, and they are some of my favourite keepsakes from those years. When we moved away, I honestly cried. It was incredibly difficult to leave a place where I knew, without a shadow of a doubt, that my children were loved and cared for so deeply. As a parent, finding people you trust completely with your children is priceless, and saying goodbye to that was incredibly hard for me. Even though we've moved and all three of my children are now in school, Erika and Carlos are still such a meaningful part of their memories. They still talk about them and remember their time at Run & Fun so fondly. We haven't been back to the area yet, but they keep talking about wanting to see Erika and Carlos the next time we're in town. And one of the sweetest things is that Erika and Carlos still remember every birthday and they always call to wish my children a happy birthday. I cannot recommend Run & Fun highly enough. If you're looking for someone to care for your children, you aren't just choosing a daycare. You're choosing the people who will shape a meaningful part of their earliest years. We could not have asked for better people to be part of ours. I will always be grateful that our paths crossed with Erika and Carlos. Run & Fun will forever be a very special chapter in our family's story, and Erika and Carlos will always have a special place in our hearts.

I've been with the daycare for over 7yrs. I couldn't possibly cover all the ways I'm grateful for…read morethem so I'll list a handful. First, they are the embodiment of dependability. Even through the pandemic, they only closed down once when Carlos tested positive for Covid. Outside of that, they were able to stay open the whole time. They are super cautious when it comes to really infectious stuff like hand foot and mouth disease, but they won't be calling you because of a runny nose and a simple cough. In the end it's really just a handful of families they work with who all have similar attitudes and priorities and that makes a huge difference. They are not just watching the kids. Erika takes great pains to ensure there are engaging and enriching activities for these young ones every single day. They talk to them in both English and Spanish but they don't force it. Every child picks up as much or as little as they want and their preferences are acknowledged and nurtured. My oldest is a math and science guy while the younger one is more of an athlete and a performer and they both loved their time here. Every parent I've talked to has something to say about the food. It's healthy, it's homemade and magically, they can get all the kids to eat their vegetables. You can literally give your child a glass of milk for dinner and that would be enough calories for the day. Finally, I can't guarantee some results, but my oldest was actually reading by the time he left for Kindergarten. I know some of it is down to nature, but it still takes amazing nurturing to bring out such remarkable results. Oh I almost forgot, Run and Fun is the best value for money you can find in Silicon Valley, I guarantee it!!!
