My daughter attended Rio Child Care from the time she was 9 months until she turned 3. We were really sad to move on to Preschool, because this really was a truly special place. The first daycare we tried was a nightmare, but literally after the first day of attending here, we could see the difference in our daughter's care. They have separate locations for infant and toddler care, which makes it less overwhelming for the babies starting out. It's extremely clean and cozy, like a second home. They cook home cooked meals and provide healthy snacks. And when the time came, they even helped us with potty training. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor space to play and rooms to sleep. They do lots of activities, like water-play in the summer. My daughter was always bringing home the cutest art projects. They even make holidays and birthdays feel very special. When our daughter outgrew infant care, she attended their second location, which functions more as a discovery preschool. There she did a lot of the same things, but they started incorporating early learning with more structure lessons. It was very important to us that they met our child where she was developmentally, rather than expect her to be independent and follow a rigorous schedule. Ms. Rubina, her daughters and their team are very hands on, kind and nurturing, so each child gets the individualize care they need while still being able to grow and socialize. They helped us raise our daughter into a very happy, independent, smart and polite young lady. She had zero issues transitioning to Preschool, which we know is largely a part of the great care she received at Rio. We truly could not thank them enough. read more

Rio is the BEST! My daughter has been enrolled since she was four months old and is now with the "big" kids (18+months). The teachers are all so loving and will treat your child like their own. There are always fun activities going on and even the babies participate in arts and crafts. Look no further if you want a safe, nurturing, and joyful daycare for your child. read more

I wanted to take time and update my review as my last one was done over four years ago. Since then, my first son has graduated from Rio and my second son has been here since he was four months old. Both of my boys love it here! There was a time where I decided to switch schools due to location. What a mistake! We quickly realized how amazing Rio is and worth the drive. My youngest is now 3.5 years old and is excited to see his teachers and friends every day. My oldest son still enjoys coming to visit and saying hi to everyone. read more

My youngest son started at Rio at 17 months old and we are so happy with the care provided. He loves being there, and the teachers are so kind and nurturing. Now that we've had two children attend Rio (our eldest went there until age 3.5), we absolutely would recommend this place for anyone looking for a daycare preschool! read more

Our daughter started there at 4.5 months. It was very hard to leave our tiny baby at a daycare but if you have to go back to work, then this is the place to be. The teachers are very loving. As my daughter got older and started to recognize people, she always smiled at drop-off in the mornings when she saw the teachers. The place is super clean. They cook lunch and it always smelled amazing. Would highly recommend! read more

I have sent both my daughters to Rio since they were 5 months old. My eldest is now 4. My youngest is 16 months. They are SO LOVING and NURTURING. They taught my first all her numbers and letters at 18 months and I was literally amazed! They have been more than we ever wished for. They do artwork, celebrate birthdays and holidays, feed them fresh food from their kitchen, read stories, teach them to draw and hold markers and have a large back open shaded area for play. My four year old is practicing her writing and comes home with so many great examples of her work. They also learned Yoga and Downward dog! My eldest has made wonderful friendships at this school. I really hope they will stay in touch when they enter TK. They also make my life easier as a working mother. They feed them breakfast and lunch, and don't reprimand me if I drop them off late (which can happen at many preschools)! I love the small, nurturing community they have fostered. My children especially adore Ms. Nata and Ms. Arminka, and of course, Ms. Rubina, the owner. She is so wonderful and loving. She sends us photos of the kids and communicates on how our children are doing. read more

We are very lucky and happy of being with Rio Child Care! Miss Rubina and all her team are amazing! They provide personal care of each child, home made food (4 times a day, when there are many places that are not providing any food). Our daughter Nicole Melania is very happy, and every time she doesn't want to leave their place. And I'm personally feeling calm while our baby is in a child care, because I know she's in good hands. Thank you again to Rio Child Care read more

Rio Child Care was recommended to me through a friend. I have now had my daughter under their care since 5 months old. My daughter is now 16 months and is always so happy at drop off, absolutely no tears. Finding a great quality childcare has always been a struggle for me. I'm so happy I found a place that I see my daughter thriving in. She loves her teachers and they are so nurturing, patient and sweet with her. The photo updates are my favorite. Thank you Rubina, Natali and Karina for making the process possible for us. Ms. Ruzanna, Ms. Siranush & our other beautiful teacher , thank you for all you do!!! read more

This place is SUCH a good find. We shopped around and looked at a ton of daycares in our area, all will great yelp reviews, and none of them came close to Rio. It's clean, fresh and bright with compassionate and enthusiastic care. They even provide healthy meals and snacks. They help with nap transitions and have such deep understanding of babies and toddlers. My first child went there, and when we needed childcare for our second, we felt so lucky to have a safe, clean, happy place to go. They even give a discount for siblings! Trust me- this place will become part of your village. read more

I had my daughter right at the start of the pandemic so I got to stay home with her longer than I had planned, but we also didn't get to socialize her much because of COVID. When I had to go back to work I found Rio childcare, and so I'm glad I did! I was so nervous leaving her with strangers but i can honestly say, she is so loved there. She has learned so much and made some good friends she comes home to tell me about. I'm surprised at all the new things she learns everyday - colors, shapes, letters, songs, etc. She comes home with a lot of art projects and they even helped get her fully potty trained earlier than I expected her to be. I will forever be thankful to the Rio childcare team! read more

We enrolled our son in daycare when he was 5 months old. Being our only child, we had a little separation anxiety. Rubina and her daughter were very responsive and gave us a tour of the facility. The facility is very clean and I can tell they love children because the entire house is decorated/catered towards kids. There are a lot of both fun and educational materials neatly organized inside. Ms. Liana mainly takes care of our son and she greets us every morning with a warm smile. Sometimes she is the first one there and sometimes I am a little early dropping him off but she always welcomes him in with a big smile! Our son loves going to her and seeing her. Rubina runs a tight ship and I can tell all her employees genuinely want to be there. One of the best things about this daycare is that they will send you update photos of your child every few days. Thanks Rio Child Care! read more

We love Rio! The teachers are all wonderful and they truly care about all the children. Our son not only learned valuable lessons but also made great friends. If you are looking for a daycare for your little ones in the Burbank area Rio is sure to be a great choice! Thanks Rio! read more

It's been a year since my last review. My son has been continually showing us so much improvement in many ways since he attends Rio Child Care. We kept him at home for two months since the virus began in March, but due to both me and my husband are working from home so it's too much stress to handle with him around. We decided to let him go back to the daycare because we trusted Rubina, Mr.s Neyli, and Mr.s Lilit they would take very good care of the children. In fact, they really did an amazing job. We are so grateful for these teachers who are willing to be at the frontline taking care of the children to make sure they are healthy and happy. Every morning after dropping off my son, they measure his body temperature first, then they took him to wash his hands right after. All parents are required to wear masks while dropping off, and not allowed to go inside. Everyone follows the rules. My son has been building up more confidence and he clearly told us he's ready to go to preschool. It's really sad to say good-bye to Rio daycare, on the last Friday, they held a nice good-bay party for my son. I think it's such an important moment for my son to experience it so he knows he's moving on. I can't express how much I appreciated, I can only leave this review to whoever is looking for a daycare in Burbank. This is a place you won't regret to send your kids to. read more

Rio was the first daycare that my son ever went to. It was a hard transition for the both of us but after a few weeks he was all smiles. They get plenty of outside play time which my son loves and they do lots of arts and crafts. It's also roomier then any day care we have visited. It feels open and clean. Rubina also sends plenty of pictures! Thank you Rio for caring for my precious little man. read more

The staff here are amazing. My son Greyson has been going here for over 3 months. Since he's started he's learned to play with other kids.

Rio is such a wonderful place, and I am thankful we found it. The people there are so sweet and genuinely care for our kids. They do such fun crafts and lessons. I am constantly amazed how much my son knows (he is almost 2 1/2) because of theses terrific women that take care of him, and my daughter (9 months). And you can tell. The kids LOVE going here. They always have big smiles when we drop them off, and are greated with warm smiles and hugs in return. Thank you, Rio, for all you have done for my kids. We feel so lucky to have them with you. read more

Great daycare. My 20 months daughter has been at Rio Child Care for 3 months. I'm glad we found Rubina ( the owner of Rio child care) in Burbank. She listens to the parents' request. She prepares homemade dishes and snacks for kids. She has a huge backyard with full of toys that kids can play with. Parents also receive pictures during the day. My daughter also get along with other kids very well, often she doesn't want to leave when I pick her up. She also learns to wave and say bye to Rubina when we leaving, which make me feel comfortable, think that my daughter had a great day there. I would recommend anyone who lives in Burbank or works in one of the studios send their kids to Rio Child Care. read more

So glad I found Rubina and her wonderful daycare. I started my 18mo old a month ago and she LOVES coming here everyday. She especially loves Ms Nellie and she has formed a bond with her quickly. My little one has since learned so many things since she started and has become so vocal and social. This place is a gem for kids and parents alike! read more

We're so lucky that we found Rio for our 18-month old. We had a traumatic experience with a previous daycare and my daughter hated going but with Rio I can really see the difference in my toddler. Now, she's excited to go and is almost always in a great mood when I pick her up. Rubina, Nellie and Lilit are patient and warm towards the kids. They really take the time to plan activities to keep them engaged. I've seen the kids do morning exercises, water play, arts and crafts and have dance parties. They have a nice outdoor/backyard area with lots of toys which my daughter loves. Rubina also sends updates and pictures which I appreciate. And they're very flexible with our schedule too. We are so thankful to have found this place and would definitely recommend to other families. read more

Rubina and her team are the best. They care deeply, are gentle and kind, and play with and teach the children. They also make wholesome, homemade food. Before Rio, I searched and could not find a place that I felt comfortable with. But we have had our baby with Rio for about 9 months now and they feel like family. I know she is safe there and also having fun. Thank you, Rubina, Nelly and Lily! read more

Our 8 month old daughter has been going to Rio Child Care for a few months and they've been amazing! Robina and Carmen shower her with love and when we pick her up she's always happy. They send daily photos and updates as well as a schedule about how her day went. Its not easy dropping your child off with someone else but they've made us feel comfortable and we know our daughter is in good hands. read more

My baby is 11 months old and she is going here since a month. Rubina is such a sweet lady. She keeps me updated with my baby pictures time to time. She takes care of them very well. I can see that my baby is more active then before. My baby loves her food too. As a mother I trust Rubina and I am pretty sure that my baby is in good hands. We are very glad that we found this place. read more

My daughter started at Rio about 3 months ago when she was 6 months. She used to have separation anxiety but the teachers were so patient with her and now she's thriving. She's excelling with her gross motor skills, she has quite a few words for her age and she's an excellent eater which I must credit to Rio for providing a great environment for her developmental needs. Most importantly, she has a smile on her face when I drop her off and I have complete trust that she's in good hands. They also text us pics of her which is a nice bonus. We feel very lucky to have found Rio! read more

I am expecting and was looking for a child care place for a while but nothing fit my standards, so i went to this place as my friend recommended 'cause she is taking her child over here and she was always telling me how satisfied she is. Well i can say exactly same, i loved the place!! the atmosphere, the place by itself is so cute and clean, a lot of fun stuff to do , the lady is so so lovely and nice . Well i needed a place that i'd not be worried about my child , and a place that my baby would want/love stay too- i can surely say that i'm this is the one! read more

I know Rubina and her family well as my son was the first child at Rio Child Care in 2017 when Rio was opened. Rubina, her family and her staff are a loving group of people that have a passion for taking care of young children. They have always taken good care of my son and always go the extra mile to give him what he needs. He is almost 4 now and is still happy waking up every morning to go to Rio. I am especially grateful to Rubina for taking so good care of him during this awful pandemic. I don't know what I have done if they were not around. Thanks so much for your help! read more

Our daughter started at Rio about 3 months ago right around her first birthday. The experience has been nothing but amazing for her and us so far. They were very patient with her adjustment to new faces and a new environment. Now she just jumps out of our arms and starts playing the second we drop her off. Nelly, Rubina, and Lilly are very caring and foster a nurturing environment. Our daughter comes home with an increased vocabulary and accelerated gross motor skills which she learned at daycare. They have a lot of fun outdoor activities for the kids. Rubina sends us several pictures throughout the week and we love seeing our daughter so happy. She also communicated promptly with us when our daughter wasn't feeling well. We are so lucky to have found this daycare in the middle of a pandemic and love seeing the big smile on our daughter's face when she is there. read more

We LOVE Rio Family daycare! They are an answer to our prayers. Our daughter has been going here since she was 6 months old and is so happy and smiley when we pick her up at the end of the day. I can't say enough good things about the women who work here. Rio Family Daycare you rock!!!! Thank you read more

Amazing day care! Our baby loves coming here, food is great, location is perfect, staff is beyond great. We never pick up our baby dirty or hangry. Rubina the owner sends pictures to parents of what kiddos are doing through out the day so we dont miss our precious moments with our babies. They are very clean. When we bring our baby boy there he runs there...we absolutelyLOVE it... definitely one of the kind care!!! read more

Great child care, I'm glad my kid is attending this facility. Very nice staff. I recommend to everyone

My son has been at Rio Child Care since October and I'm very happy I found it! I was concerned about leaving my son with someone else because he had only known my mother and me since his birth. But with Rubina I knew he was safe and in good hands. Sometimes it's hard to get my son to leave because she has much better toys than at my house and a great back yard with everything kids love. She does arts and crafts with the kids and just started potty training my son (he's 14 months). She's also helping out with teeth brushing as I'd like him to start brushing 2x a day. She has lots of experience with kids (3 of her own) and you can tell she loves her job. I would recommend Rio! read more
