My daughter has been going to Schusterland Dacycare since she was 12 months old and we absolutely love it. My daughter sprints into daycare every morning and comes home talking about all the fun things she did that day. She is very attached to the owner Denise and Denise's assistant Elena. They have created a very loving, supportive and enriching environment. My daughter is now 2 and knows her numbers, letter and has an expansive vocabulary. She also understands Spanish thanks to their Spanish immersion program. Daycare provides breakfast and lunch and so the parents are only responsible for snacks. I drop off my daughter at daycare every day with the relief of knowing that she is safe, loved and well cared for! read more

I would rate Schusterland daycare 10/10! The owner Denise is super kind, loving, and warm to the kids. She takes great care of them. My daughter has been with Denise since 6 months old. Over 2 years now. Every single day Denise greets us with a warm friendly smile. My daughter loves Denise and her assistant Elena as well. She has learned so much in the last 2 years, including Spanish. She knows many words in Spanish and can understand fluently. And the very best part - lunch is included!! My daughter is a picky eater at home but at Denise's house she eats rice, beans, fruits, quesadillas and more. I have less anxiety knowing my daughter is happy and safe with Denise! read more

As a first time mom I was nervous about starting my daughter in daycare at 5 months old. Denise and her assistant Elena made the transition very easy. I specifically liked that the infants played separately from the older toddlers until she was of age. Denise's home has a great layout with plenty of space for the kids to play. Unlike other daycares I toured, the babies play indoors for most of the day and have set times when they go outside in the backyard which includes shade. Also, a huge plus is that Denise has a full time assistant which makes the ratio better than any I've toured. Many other daycares only have one provider or someone who helps out for only a few hours. Denise is very active herself and has great energy with the kids. She cooks very healthy meals and even inspired me to start cooking with more plant-based protein. I'm looking forward to seeing pictures from their Halloween party next week! I've never had an issue with leaving my daughter in their care and would recommend them to anyone looking for a safe, interactive, and fun in-home daycare. read more

My two-year-old loves Schusterland Daycare! She has been attending for over a year and I am amazed at how far she has come with her speech and confidence under Denise (and her assistant Elana's) care. It is a loving environment and my daughter runs inside every morning to find her favorite toys and friends. They provide a healthy breakfast, lunch, and snacks so I never have to worry about packing meals. Plus, Denise always throws cute parties for the kids at the holidays (Halloween is the best!) Schusterland is a happy and caring family daycare and I recommend it to anyone! read more

We had a great experience with the daycare. My daughter had very, very happy days with her friends and Denise! I always felt safe to leave my little one in their care. They provide great activities for the kids, my daughter's favorite was yoga time! Happy to recommend this place! read more

If you're looking for a family daycare, Schusterland is fantastic. The kids are very well-cared for and loved by Denise and Elena. Our daughter has been there since she was 6 months old. She's made friends there and has fun every day. It's dynamic, clean and happy. If you're an anxious parent who wants constant updates and worries about every detail, consider getting a nanny. If you want a lovely, responsible daycare you can trust, go to Schusterland on Regent. read more

Our son has been going to Schusterland Daycare for over a year now and we've noticed incredible progress in his development. Our son is learning so much and it shows! He can even count from 1 to 10 now!!! He is always happy when we drop him off, he runs right through the door happy to be with his friends. We've also picked up our son at all different hours and the kids always seem very happy. Schusterland Daycare offers a safe, structured environment that balances learning and fun. We love the fact that every day they have a specific activity scheduled (pajama day, kiddie pool day, earthquake drill, ABC, Music, Dance, etc.). All in all, it's a great place for kids to feel happy and at home. Denise and her staff are amazing! They are very loving and nurturing. They treat each child like their own. We are truly grateful for all the love and care they give our son. We highly recommend this daycare. read more

See all

My daughter has been going to Schusterland Daycare since she was 4 months old. It has been a fun ride all along. Denise is great with the kids. She treats them like her own children and provides a safe environment for them to grow. There hasn't been one day when my daughter was not excited to go to daycare which makes life a little easier as i know that if she's happy I am happy! Thank you Denise for providing my kid with the best second home i could have hoped for! read more

Schusterland Daycare - Denise and her kids - Child Care & Day Care Near Me - Los Angeles, California

My 2.5 year old son has been with Schusterland for the last year. In fact yesterday, August 21, was his 1 year anniversary. It has truly been a great place for my son to go every day and I'm so thankful that they've given so much of themselves to care for my child. Denise, Elana and Luz Maria Thank you for being amazing care givers!! I would recommend Schusterland to any of my friends. They've really been flexible with us and worked with us when we did potty training with my son. I love the fact that they feed the kids breakfast and lunch, even though I generally fed my son before dropping him off, I always knew he had the option to eat there if I was running behind. Denise has been great! read more

My son has been at Schusterland daycare (11160 Regent St) since he was 5 months old. Since starting he has blossomed into an amazing easygoing and super friendly baby which I really think has a lot to do with the wonderful care he is receiving from Denise and her assistant Elana. It wasn't easy starting my first baby at daycare but Denise and Elana made the transition go very smoothly and I immediately felt that he was safe under their care. I highly recommend this daycare! read more

We were scrambling to find excellent daycare for our twin daughters after their previous daycare closed suddenly. We are so grateful that we found Schusterland! Denise is a loving, warm, responsible care provider, and our girls were always thrilled to see her. It's hard to entrust your children to another person all day long, but we always felt comfortable leaving them with Denise. We left only because it was time for our girls to go to preschool. read more

We love this place. Our daughter started coming at 4.5 months and loves it. She tells us she plays, dances and eats snacks! They've been following all of the CDC protocols, and the caretakers consistently wear masks. It's cozy, and the ratio-to-child is so much better than a daycare facility. Take a tour! read more

My daughter has been going here for about 8 months now and we couldn't be happier. She is extremely accommodating of mine and my husband's changing schedule, even extending hours for us if need be. She is very open with us, keeping us updated on the things my daughter has done during the day and she keeps a calendar of activities in clear view so we know what she is doing everyday. She also has an open door policy, so if you ever want to check on your child during the day you can. She gets us parents as involved as possible with family outings every couple of months allowing us to see all the kids in daycare as well as meet all the other parents. And as first time parents, its great to meet who our daughter interacts with everyday. My daughter has learned so much in her time at Schusterland and I can see that she truly loves it there. When I pick her up she is very happy and I can tell Denise and her staff treat our kids right. I would definitely recommend this daycare to everyone! read more

Don't listen to that nasty review. Every daycare charges you for holidays, it's standard practice. My baby is well loved by everyone there. Denise has been wonderfully accommodating of my changing employment. I had to stop for awhile and now my baby goes once to a few days a week. If she was only in it for the money then she would have charged for the time I stopped so that I could start again, another standard practice. Thank you for supporting my family Denise! read more

Schusterland Daycare - Fun time at the park! - Child Care & Day Care Near Me - Los Angeles, California

My daughter has been attending Schusterland Daycare since she was 9 Months old. Since the very first week, my daughter showed immense amounts of development. She loves Denise and her assistants. I truthfully feel safe leaving her with Denise. Everytime I drop my daughter off, she runs to Denise and puts her head on Denise's head. The price is reasonable, $300 per week on a full time schedule; for the care she provides. My daughters safety and development is worth the world and Denise has left me in awe and completely erased those awful Daycare stories from my mind as I know that I made the right choice by choosing Schusterland Daycare. read more

Schusterland Daycare - I love knowing that my daughter is beyond excited to see Denise and her friends! Thank you Denise for the care that you provide. - Child Care & Day Care Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Denise and Elaina took great care of my little one from 4 months to 9 months (only left because we moved across town). They are so nurturing, and had such a positive influence on her development! We couldn't get her to take good naps until she started going to schusterland, and within weeks she slept great at the same time every day, even when home with us on weekends. Then when she started solid food, we couldn't for the life of us figure out how to teach her to use a spoon, but after a week of bringing food to Denise, our baby was a pro! Denise would text her pictures in Halloween costumes in October and Santa outfits at Christmas - very cute. Every morning when I dropped her off she saw Denise or Elaina and smiled really big, which is to me one of the best ways to know how your child is treated when you're not there to see. We will miss them both dearly!!! read more

I'm going to start by providing you with Schusterlands facility number because that allows you to search the daycare on the California department of social services website and see copies of licensing violation citations. I want to be clear that this is not about my personal feelings towards anyone in particular. This about the quality of care provided. This is not a safe daycare. I have filed a detailed complaint and originally wanted to wait until that was investigated before posting this but since I've taken my son out she'll surely be looking for more children and I would hate someone to subject their child to this place based on the current reviews. The facility number is 197409713 This is the link if it makes it easier: https://secure.dss.ca.gov/CareFacilitySearch/FacDetail/197409713. I'm providing this because despite being legally required to post information about these citations and notify ALL parents about these violations and citations Denise will not do so. After licensing visited in April Denise mentioned it in passing only to complain that they had been so detailed and to laugh it off as just a small fine. She never posted anything or provided anything. All childcare facilities (doesn't matter if it's a home daycare or a big center) are legally required to allow parents or guardians to enter during business hours. I asked if I could step inside and Elena told me no but that I could give her my child and wait outside for denise. I told her it's illegal to deny me entry and she replied that she didn't understand what I was saying. I took my child to my car and called Denise to inform her of what had happened. Denise told me that I was welcome to come back at specific times for a short while but that I could not come in while dropping off or just drop in and attempted to justify this ludicrous statement by saying that there's too many kids and too much activity to accommodate have parents inside. Take note: when you drop off you'll be told to hand your child over at the door. When you pick up you'll hear the mad dash to check which parent has arrived then the scramble to bring only your child to the door, your child is then handed out to you with the same statement every single day "he ate well, he slept well, he had a great day". No details beyond that, nothing specific to your child or information about what actually transpired during the day. This includes injuries. My son had a huge bump and scraping on his head after my husband picked him up one day. I asked about it the next morning but no information was given at pick up. Note the pictures that are posted. Some by Denise but of the old facility location, not the current location. Some by parents from the parents from previous events or the old location. One picture of a little girl at the door of the current location. Reason being of course that that mom hands off and picks up at the door. She never makes it past that door. After the initial tour, neither will you. read more

We were so lucky to have Denise and Elena care for both of our children (2 y/o and 6 mos.). They have loved their time there and learned so much under their care. Our son started when he was 4 months old and the amount of Spanish he has learned is amazing. Additionally, his development has surpassed our expectations and we have been blown away by how much he loves going to daycare each day. We would recommend Denise and Elena to anyone with young children. read more

Our daughter attended Schusterland Daycare for over 3 years since she was 9 months old. Our daughter has graduated the daycare about a month ago. We did a lot of research and visits when we looked for daycare providers. And we liked Denise, the owner, immediately as she was very articulate and accommodating. She was a preschool teacher in Mexico, and I believe that she's now completed her preschool teaching program here. This daycare was the ideal place for our daughter as it provides an intimate, house-setting environment. As full-time working parents, we were so thankful for Denise and her staff, because we knew that our daughter was getting lots of love and hugs from them. For babies and toddlers, the covered outside play area was great. Denise is not only a loving, caring person, but she's also a great teacher. Our daughter has learned a lot (colors, letters, numbers, shapes, songs, dance, etc. in English and Spanish). Our daughter now speaks, understands, and sings in English and Spanish very well. Also, our daughter used to bring artwork almost every other day. Other Likes: 1) Schusterland provides breakfast and lunch. 2) Flexible on clothes: some daycares and preschools forbid children from wearing white or nice clothes, but Schusterland doesn't. 3) Seasonal Events and Excursions: Our family loved the pumpkin patch trips and Christmas parties. 4) Great group of Kids: They get along well. Denise and her staff supervise the kids very well. Schusterland Daycare was the perfect second home for our daughter. Some remarks on negative reviews: As for the facility on Regent St., it went through several changes and at one point, the infant area was small in January 2015, but it is no longer the case. The kids have a new room to play. The gate is, of course, locked when kids play outside. And yes, Denise charges fees during her vacation and national holidays even if you withdraw your child before her vacation. This is a standard practice among daycare providers. Schusterland Daycare's contract is straightforward. Denise has raised her fee only once in the past 3 years, if not longer. read more

My son has been going to Schusterland Daycare for one year now. I love the open door policy that I can show up whenever I please to check on him. I love how interactive Denise and her staff are with all the children. Very family friendly and really does feel like a second home to my son. He calls Denise his Denise and that makes me know he's A-OK while I'm at work. read more

We had a difficult experience with the owners of this daycare. Definitely do your research and make sure this is a good fit for your child.

Very unprofessional daycare, Denise was very rude and arrogant with my wife. The first day we left our kid for 3 hours only and he had a lot of rashes, he never had rashes before for the last 1 year. Denise told my wife all the kids here use rash cream and its normal. She also told that if you are not happy you can look for another day care. Second day my wife went to pick up the kid, he was having another child's pacifier and also wearing another kids socks. She complained to Denise and she told her that she can't do anything because there are so many kids. My wife saw another kid who was in isolation and had fallen down and there was no one to help her out, and then the day care employee is asking my wife what happened to the kid. You can just imagine how well is this daycare run. Lastly on the third day we went to pick up the stuff for the baby, Denise she charged us the full $300 dollars even our kid just went there for 2 days. You can imagine what kind of a daycare is this. read more

Denise and her assistants have been wonderful. My 19 mo old son has learned his ABCs, can count from 1-10, and constantly sings nursery rhymes...all of which he learned at daycare. Denise is extremely caring and loving towards all of her kids. Another plus is that they speak to the kids in Spanish! We highly recommend this daycare :) read more

My daughter,Abbey, attended Schusterland Daycare from 6 months until 14 months. We loved that our daughter was always happy at drop off and pick up. I handled pick up and I was shown her "schedule" for the day: when she ate (included ounces for milk), times and naps, and number diaper changes. We chose to do Baby Led weaning with her(you don't feed purees) and Denise was on board to learn about the process so we could continue when it was time for Abbey to start solids. It was easy to see in the interaction with our daughter and the other children how much Denise, Elena, and the other assistants love working with children. Denise is very direct and easy to communicate with and flexible with drop off and pick up. Our daughter came away knowing baby signs, Spanish, and a healthy interaction/play with other children. We are sad that we are moving out of the area and couldn't continue at Schusterland. Thank you for taking great care of Abbey! read more

I have sent both of my children here since they were 4 months old. Denise provides a warmth for the children as well as all of the families, that I feel like she is part of my family! I love this daycare for the peace of mind and care my child gets! read more

My son has been attending Schusterland Daycare for almost 2 years now, and he loves it there! As a first time mom I was very nervous about sending my son to daycare, but I always felt very comfortable leaving him in Denise's hands. It is clear that Denise really cares for all the children at the daycare, and I love that she makes education a priority. Additionally, Denise goes out of her way to foster a great community of parents at the daycare with quarterly gatherings. It's great to get to meet the other parents and see all of the kids playing with each other. Just one of the many ways Denise goes above and beyond! This daycare is really a great find! I can't imagine what we would do without Denise! read more

My daughter has been going to Schusterland Daycare for the past 7 months and she is about to turn one. It is an amazing place. Denise was so helpful to me as a single, working mom putting a baby into daycare for the first time and I have been so impressed with her and the rest of the staff. I'm so happy with the staff. They really love my daughter! And it shows!!! And my daughter absolutely loves it there! I think that this daycare has been a blessing to me. Denise is very flexible with my schedule and my daughter has never had any injuries, is always very clean, and she is absolutely thriving there!!! I've recommended this daycare to others I like it so much. Denise really seems to love what she does, she plans field trips and parties so the other parents can get to know one another. She makes crafts (as if they were from the baby) for holidays. I'm so excited to have found such a nice place for my daughter! Thanks Denise for everything you do. I really appreciate it!! :) read more

Our 15 month old has gone to Schusterland for almost a year now, and we couldn't be happier. We were so comfortable the first time we met Denise, and since then she has continued to show us every day that our child is in the best hands. Denise and her assistants really care. Schusterland is a place where our child feels safe and loved, and some days doesn't want to leave! We love the bilingual environment (well, trilingual if you count baby signs!) and the outside opportunities to get to know the other families too. We're lucky to have found Schusterland! read more

My daughter has been at Schusterland for three years and it has been a great experience. My daughter has a smile on her face everyday when I pick her up and she talks about Denise (the owner) all of the time at home as well. From what I've seen, the owner treats the children like her own. I'm grateful for Denise, and the other parents that I've met who have children attending Schusterland. read more

My son started at Schusterland at the location near Tito's Tacos when he was eight months old. I was so nervous leaving him because I had been home with him his entire life but Franklin and his lovely staff made me feel at ease. The daycare isn't fancy but the teachers are very loving and my son always loved going. He was always fed, clean and taken care of. It's also very affordable and they are flexible with hours, feeding etc. My son also learned so much at the school and he is very ahead developmentally. I also love that he heard Spanish! I would recommend the school! read more

I wish I would have done a better research. Please please everyone read over your contract completely. In the contract it said the Schusterland daycare are allow to change their fees on you whenever they like. Denise told me I still need to pay her for anytime my child don't attend her daycare. Even when she close her daycare for any holidays and when they go on vacation I still owe her. She is absolutely money hungry. She stole $300 from me and said my child can not come back unless I pay more because she now has new parents that she is charging more. Well that is what I get for looking for a daycare on craigslist. She is constantly posting her add on craigslist. My child was always unhappy going to Denise daycare. My child had a deep nail scratch on arm. Yes! I do examine my child every time I pick my child up from Schusterland daycare. My child went there for 6weeks. I am definitely reporting this fraudulent daycare. Its obvious she is running a daycare for money and not for the sincere kindness of the children needs. read more
