Mrs. Firoozeh is always so kind, and his whole face lights up when she opens the door in the morning. Her communication is wonderful; she sends photos throughout the day, and when he was an infant, the daily take-home papers were such a comfort because I always knew how his day went. She made going back to work so much easier, and we truly have no complaints. We're so grateful for her and this preschool.

Everyone knows the hardest part of being a working mom is leaving your child(ren) with someone else…read moreall day. The guilt will not go away but what does help is that you find someone/place where your child is happy, growing and loved. DAYCARE DESCRIPTION: Basically the owner (Firoozeh) converted her entire downstairs home and outside area to a daycare. You take off your shoes when you go inside so it's clean for the kids and there is a separate room for them to take their naps. Some of the daycares I checked out when we first moved here had the play area convert into sleep area and just placed plastic mattes for them to sleep on - yukky. This place has a sleep room so the kids don't get woken up from any noise outside. WHAT TO EXPECT: Firoozeh does an amazing job with the kids. She is so professional, always wearing gloves to change their diapers. Each day I get a sheet informing me of when my daughter ate,slept, peep/pooped. Firoozeh always takes classes to keep updating her preschool and daycare activities and makes sure the kids are ready for school one day! The activities, toys and books are wonderful and all the love that Firoozeh pours into the daycare and the kids is visible. FUNNY NOTE: My daughter did not want to leave one afternoon when I picked her up a bit earlier than usual (thinking she would want to dash out of there) and that was when my guilt started fading (just a bit). I highly recommend this place and trust me I know it's good since I drive here from East Sacramento almost each day (my job is not here but it's so nice to know my daughter loves it and has fun so it's worth it to me!)

I've been with Spartan Daycare since 2019, and both of my daughters have attended--our experience…read morehas been nothing but wonderful. Anabel truly goes above and beyond to make sure the kids are learning, engaged, and, most importantly, safe. Over the years, she's created experiences that go far beyond the classroom, from fun field trips to the pumpkin patch to making birthdays a big deal. She decorates, celebrates each child, and even provides cake and presents--things she doesn't have to do, but chooses to because she genuinely loves what she does. Her passion and care truly shine through in everything she creates for the kids.

She is very transparent and honest and we have built a level of trust that can give us peace of mind while were at work and away from our children. Keep up the great work team spartan DC

As a parent, it's incredibly reassuring to know my son is in such a caring environment every day. The curriculum is amazing and has already made such a difference. Within his first two weeks of attending, my son was already learning how to write his name! It's been so exciting to see how much he's growing and learning. One of my favorite things is how often the teachers share photo and video updates throughout the day. It gives me peace of mind and lets me be a part of his day even when I'm at work. You can truly tell that the teachers genuinely care about each child and are passionate about what they do. The best part is that my son comes home happy every single day, excited to tell me about what he learned. I couldn't be happier with our experience at Future Thinkers and would highly recommend them to any parent looking for a nurturing, engaging, and supportive preschool. And a special special shoutout to Mrs Greeta who made the transition for my son so smooth and reassuring, she is very committed to keeping a positive and healthy relationship with the families she serves!

During the day we get occasional photos of our son enjoying his day. He gets breakfast and lunch and they have activities throughout the day. I loved seeing my son's progression going here as a toddler. Communication is great here. The ladies are always a text/phone call away and they keep us in the loop if there's any accidents. One of the things I like most about this daycare is when they send my son home with the arts and crafts he does during the day which really brings joy after a day of work!

We…read morecame from a very small family day care and wanted the same level of care and community moving so far. We tried one day care before here and it was horrible leaving my 3 year old scared to go to day care. When we finally found SunLake Daycare both my mom and I knew it was the right place. The level of kindness and organization were the first green flags! This is a lovely family who have spent the time and energy making their home a fun exciting place for the kids they care for. My son LOVES going and will easily jump in the car for this. Just yesterday he asked if he could bring his school friends cupcakes because he wants to do something for them. The way this showed me how loving the staff and the children here are to my son means the world to me. They consistently send photos of my child engaging in so many fun activities. It puts me to ease knowing he's being loved and engaged with! What a hidden gem!

My wife and I have felt completely comfortable and confident leaving him in their care. The administrators, Ms. Bev and Ms. Satpreet, are warm, professional, and always approachable. They know every child by name. The teachers are incredibly sweet and attentive. They create a nurturing environment where our son has thrived. The daycare also offers great amenities that give us peace of mind as parents: - A healthy morning snack, lunch, and afternoon snack are provided daily -Secure key code door access and a key code tablet check-in/check-out system -Live-stream cameras in the classrooms so you can check in on your child anytime -They provide updates with photos and videos so you can see what your child is up to throughout the week. The cost is in line with other similar daycares in the Sacramento area and their location was very convenient for me in North Natomas. Overall, Child Time has been amazing for us. The teachers are caring, the environment feels safe, and my son likes it there. We're really happy we found this place and would recommend it to any family looking for good childcare.

We have been very happy with Childtime of Natomas for the two years our daughter has been there…read more(age 2-4). There is a lot of communication during the day via the app and from the teachers if needed at drop offs and pick ups. The administrators work hard on planning programs and spirit days as well as checking in on milestones like potty training and nap changes. Books, art projects, outside play, ability to choose an activity and free play are part of nearly every day. I wish corporate would reconsider their policies on bus transportation for after school care. Now that California has public TK, it puts families like ours with an autumn birthday in an odd spot. We are so happy our child is currently in Childtime of Natomas's PreK/TK program, but it sounds like next year when she starts public TK, she will have to wait a year until kindergarten to qualify for bus pickup. That probably means we won't be able to continue with Childtime of Natomas after the summer. It seems like they should close this gap so that families who like the center have an easier time staying with it as kids grow.

My son attended Augustine's Dreams for a short while last year when I had started a full-time job…read moreand school was not yet back in session in-person. I was nervous because my son has ASD and it was his first time being in daycare. That nervous-ness faded away instantly after meeting Ms. Dupre! She took the time to get to know us and my son familiarized himself with her and her daycare almost instantly. Prior to coming here, he was considered non-verbal and after being home for the duration of the pandemic, he was not particularly motivated to learn. After just being there for his trial days, we'd noticed he started attempting to verbalize much more than he ever has, even with prior experience in speech therapy. It was a pivotal moment for his learning later that year. My son looked forward to going to Daycare every day, and I knew that was a great sign. He went from attempting parallel play to making a friend, which was huge for him! Even when we hit road bumps some days with his behavioral challenges, Ms. Dupre was always quick to contact myself or my fiancé, and she was always honest and offered many options to try and help him cope. She always made it apparent that she cared for my son and his needs and I appreciated that so much. To summarize our experience - we are so incredibly happy with the care Ms. Dupre provided, especially in our time of need. If you are on the search for a daycare for your kid(s), I will absolutely recommend Augustine's Dreams Learning Center every time. Thank you for all you do, Ms. Dupre!

I'm a pandemic mom with a 19 month old son who was recently referred to a speech therapist since…read morehis speech seems to be delayed. My son can say about 4 words and after much consideration and hesitation I finally researched daycare centers nearby that would accommodate with my schedule. My first priority is my son's safety and I just wasn't comfortable with exposing him to too many people. I called Augustine's in search for a small class size and a facility that would take the proper CDC measures to protect my little one as I did at home if not better. I'm hoping that my son can socialize and learn amongst his age group while we wait for the results from his speech evaluation. Milani took the time out to actually get to know me. I didn't feel like I was just on a monitored call with a receptionist who would take down all my information and then tell me that they are currently full. I didn't have time to be placed on a waiting list. We laughed and shared our experiences. She helped me understand a different way of introducing potty training to my son and I honestly am looking forward to our interview tomorrow. Milani made me feel like we are in safe hands. Although I haven't enrolled my son yet, I will be soon if all goes well and will update my review after my appointment with her tomorrow. Thank you Milani for making time to understand my needs and being so accommodating!

Families I connected with lived in the area and had older kids that went to the same school as my older son. Monkey Business also does a great job at connecting families through outside activities (trick or treating, ice skating, park dates) -Aware of neurodiverse needs (they were very natural when finding ways to accommodate my kids when appropriate) -Developmentally appropriate schedule with built in opportunities for independence (clean up between transitions, potty training, sensory exploration play) -The sweetest team I could ever hope for Thank you for everything!!

We were recommended to try out Monkey Business by another parent from our previous in-home daycare…read morethat my daughter attended. Although I was apprehensive about change, my daughter attending Monkey Business has been a fantastic transition! It has been refreshing to receive regular communication throughout the day from Jess and Ben regarding our daughter. Further, they wanted to cater to us as to how often to receive communication (less, regular, more). Our daughter has learned so much within the first few months of attending (knowing letters, numbers, days, months, and even learning to write her name!). I am so confident that she will excel when she starts TK this upcoming school year. Jess and Ben's hands-on teaching curriculum has piqued our daughter's curiosity and awakened her joy for learning. In the course of 9 months, she has had the opportunity to bake at least 3 hand-made pizzas already, bake/decorate sugar cookies on multiple occasions, and take home so many arts & crafts projects. Most of all, Jess and Ben have taught her how to be a good and kind human. I can't say enough wonderful things about them; they are just so great. Your child(ren) would be in wonderful hands by choosing Monkey Business as a daycare provider! Added bonus: the food they provide to the kiddos is usually homemade and tend to be on the healthier side too.
