My family and I came to stay in San Diego for a few days, I had booked a nanny service true another…read morecompany, but they cancel a few hours before. I quickly looked for options on babysitting services, and came across Nannies Intl, send them a message true their site, and was amazingly surprised when I got a reply. Not only was McKenzie, super quick in responding to my message, but she was able to secure a sitter under very short notice. I was supper happy, since we had engagements planned for that evening. The sitter was super nice, experience and understanding of a small child with some separation issues. My son was able to be comfortable with the sitter. Next time we need a sitter/nannies, I will definitely call Nannies Intl.

Mackenzie found an amazing nanny for my son and when she had to go back to school, she made magic…read morehappen again and found an equally amazing person. I couldn't have gotten through the past year without these amazing individuals and owe it all to Nannies Intl- they are so easy to work with and responsive, and have an amazing ability to pair personalities together. I truly believe that Mackenzie's superpower is being able to tell what type of family you are and assess needs and then find the exact right person to fit in. I high recommend using them if you are in need of childcare!

Our family hired Genuine Nannies after searching for over a year to find someone that could help…read morewith our four kids. Amy took the the time to truly listen to our needs as a family and then gave us three great options. She helped us navigate the hiring process and we have had an amazing, trust worthy nanny and house manager for about six months. Our nanny goes above and beyond for every member of our family. We had looked high and low for a nanny and the search was incredibly stressful. Hiring Genuine Nannies to conduct the search and vetting process was the best money we have ever spent.

Amy and her team are incredible! I wasted so much time trying to find a nanny on my own. Should…read morehave called Amy from the start. She asks great questions to really pinpoint what type of nanny your family really needs. My husband and I both work full time - we need a nanny who is dependable, who our kids love, and, who we feel safe and confident about watching our children. She immediately found several pre-screened candidates for us to interview., and worked with us through the whole process. She does all the hard work of background and reference checks so all candidates are great. We found our perfect nanny match and could not be happier. Just stop thinking about it and call Amy!

Words can't describe how grateful we are that we found Sandra and Mike. They are warm, caring, and…read moreloving- a true extension of our family "village". In their care, our child has absolutely thrived, and she loves going to daycare every day! They are thoughtful, organized, helpful, clean, and just so absolutely wonderful. The immediate impression from them is "home". Our child is loved, safe, happy, and just thriving with them!

My husband and I feel so grateful that our friends referred us to Sandra's daycare! She has taken…read morecare of my son since he was 5 months old (he is almost 10 months now.) He gets SO excited to see both Mike and Sandra as well as the other kids there. I love that he has a bunch of friends to play with throughout the day and older kids to learn from. They have awesome hours for a great price compared to many places out there. Communication with them has also been smooth and easy. It is scary trusting someone with your baby but these two are trustworthy and incredibly kind. If you need someone to watch your little one(s), this daycare is definitely worth putting at the top of your list :)

Cica is a gem! If you have the privilege of sending your child here, have no doubt that your baby…read morewill be in incredible hands. Cica was a gift to our family as first-time parents with no family in San Diego. Our son thrived in her care. She made and offered wonderful homemade meals and healthy snacks. She believes in play-based learning and Montessori style. She facilitates the most creative and amazing activities with the kids. She is clean and no one wears shoes in the house. She is such a positive person and bright light. She has remarkable esthetics. Not to mention, her family who support the daycare, are also such wonderful human beings. My family and I moved back East to be closer to family -- but we were incredibly sad (heartbroken!) to lose her as a caretaker. We love Cica so much. She is irreplaceable.

As a first-time parent, it can be a little daunting trying to find the right daycare for your child…read moreunless you can get a recommendation from someone who has had firsthand experience that you trust and respect.  So, when two families we know very well highly recommended Cica and Lil' Hearts Daycare after their 4 children loved going there, my wife and I didn't hesitate to call her up.  And after almost 2 years of having our son attend Lil' Hearts, we can say WITHOUT A DOUBT that every glowing compliment we ever heard about Cica and her daycare was exactly spot on.  I'm serious when I say this, Cica is like Mary Poppins, but instead of a British accent, she has a Brazilian one.  She has a way with kids you have to see to believe.  She is one of the most loving, sweet, reliable, and nurturing people we know.  As if that wasn't enough, her husband and two amazing children (both 11+ years old) are also there to lend a helping hand.   All the kids in Cica's care are so happy and know they are loved.  They also learn so much from all the different activities and crafts they do each day.  For those familiar with the Montessori schools, she is well versed in those programs and incorporates a lot of their methods of education.  Your child will also learn good manners, creativity with art and music, and how to help, share, and interact with other kids.  As for meals, she prepares everything daily from fresh fruit to chicken or spaghetti and includes snacks your kids will love.  And you'll know exactly what is going on because Cica emails a child summary every day from what they ate to their activities, potty counts, nap times, mood, anything else worth noting, PLUS PHOTOS!  She also goes over a lot of it during pickups and answers any questions you may have.  But you don't have to wait for pickups or drop offs, she's always a text or call away.  And if you're like me, you appreciate when someone is always prompt with a response and she's one of the best.  Lil' Hearts also celebrates every child's birthday and provides parents with Date Nights throughout the year.  Oh, and the graduation ceremony they hold when a child is ready to move on to preschool is such a memorable experience.  Forewarning, it can get a little emotional, especially for those parents with graduating kids.  Anyway, I can't say enough good things about Lil' Hearts Daycare.  We feel truly blessed and lucky to have Cica and her family caring for our little one each day and couldn't imagine him being anywhere else. So, with all that being said, if you ever get the opportunity to take your child to Lil' Hearts Daycare, don't hesitate because you AND your child will be very happy you did!

I cannot say enough great things about this in-home daycare! Our son started at 14 months and…read moreabsolutely flourished! It's a daycare that's play-based and my son loves the freedom of getting to run all over the huge backyard space, climb on the jungle gym, swing, play in the kitchen, build with magnatiles, do puzzles, have a dinosaur toy fight, etc. Even big daycare centers didn't seem to have as many play options as Veronica does! They also do some crafts and daily circle time so kids get exposed to the alphabet, days of the week, shapes, and learning songs from a young age (our son was naming letters and identifying all shapes well before he was 2). Our daughter started at 6 months old and that transition went well - they have a special room with cribs for little ones, and were happy to accommodate me sending in breastmilk and special (Solid Starts inspired) meals for her. She's now in the middle of the pack age-wise, as the daycare has infants all the way up through 5 year olds. Things I appreciate as a parent: - they offer breakfast, morning snack, hot lunch, and afternoon snack. I don't have to prep anything! - they celebrate holidays with fun events like a St. Patrick's day hunt for gold, Easter Egg hunt, summer water parties, Thanksgiving and Christmas parties, etc. - they have an early start (hours are 7:30am - 4:30pm), which I need for work, and they are on a quieter residential street which makes drop-off and pick-up relatively easy. - they were super patient in helping with the crib-to-cot transition and with potty training Every parent needs to find the right fit for their parenting style, and for us we didn't prioritize needing to know the timing and content of every meal and the timing of every bowel movement - this daycare does not have an app that sends you all the info every day, and I know some parents prefer to know that stuff. We do get occasional photos and videos via text. We were on the wait list for a couple of months in advance of an August start, as I think CA licensing requirements limit the number of infants, so if you're interested, definitely tour early!

We loved Beezy Little Picassos! Both my kids have been through this daycare (2018-2025), and…read moreabsolutely adored Rosie and Veronica. They are kind, loving, and have taught my kids foundational people and learning skills that have prepared them both for kindergarten.
