Home Away From Home Too Child Development Center Inc.

I love home away from home. I have two boys in the daycare. My boys are well taken care of during the school day while I work. They are well fed and the teachers make sure their needs are met always. Shout out to Ms. Joy and Ms Spencer and all the staff that make sure the kids at the center are taken care of.

I just finished a walk-through With Ms. Joy and she was phenomenal. First, I want to thank her for allowing my mom and I to stop by during their staff development training. I heard so many good things about the School in NW, that when I found out they had 24/7 I immediately wanted to stop by. Ms. Joy was very knowledgeable on the process of going to DHS to get a subsidy voucher and what to start working on to get enrolled as quickly as possible. The building looks small on the outside but it's huge on the inside. Its a lot of space, it smells fabulous when once you enter the door. The staff all greeted me with a smile and made my mom and I feel welcome. I was able to briefly speak and meet with my child's future teachers. The teachers explained their curriculum, Food program, potty training assistance, and how to use the parent teacher app (Brightwheel).

It has been a month since my baby started at Home Away From Home Too Child Development Center, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From day one, the warmth and care shown by the teachers made the transition so much easier. The staff is attentive, nurturing, and truly invested in each child’s well-being. I appreciate how patient they have been in helping my little one adjust, and I’ve already noticed growth in her development. The environment is clean, structured, and filled with engaging activities that support early learning. The teachers are dedicated and communicate well, always keeping me updated on my child’s day, which gives me peace of mind. And I must say, Ms. Joy, the center’s director, is exceptional. She is passionate, hands-on, and ensures that every child receives quality care. Her leadership is evident in how smoothly the center runs and how well the staff works together. I’m so grateful for finding this center—it truly feels like a home away from home!”

I have had the pleasure of having my twin boys enrolled at Home Away From Home Child Development Center since they were infants. From day one, I have been consistently impressed by the care and attention provided by the staff. The teachers and caregivers have created a nurturing and stimulating environment where my children have thrived. They have been incredibly supportive in helping with potty training, providing guidance, and encouraging my boys through every step of the process. This has made what could have been a challenging time much smoother and more manageable. Daily notifications through the Brightwheel app keep me updated on my children’s activities, meals, and even diaper changes. It’s reassuring to know what they are up to throughout the day and to see photos and videos of their interactions and learning experiences. The personal attention and genuine care shown by the entire staff have made a world of difference. My boys have developed socially, emotionally, and intellectually thanks to the rich curriculum and diverse activities provided. It’s clear that the team at Home Away From Home Child Development Center is dedicated to the well-being and development of each child. I couldn’t ask for a better place for my twins. The peace of mind I get from knowing they are in such capable and loving hands is invaluable. I highly recommend Home Away From Home to any parent looking for a reliable, caring, and engaging childcare center.

As a parent whose older child attended Home Away From Home Child Development Center and now has younger children currently enrolled, I’ve had the unique perspective of witnessing the center’s evolution and consistent excellence over the years. When my eldest attended, I was impressed by the nurturing environment and the quality of care. Now, with my younger children enrolled, I can confidently say that the center has only improved. Director Joy Okolagbodi has been instrumental in driving these positive changes. Her vision and dedication to early childhood education are apparent in every aspect of the center’s operations. Joy’s approachable nature and extensive expertise make her a trusted leader who genuinely cares about each child’s development and well-being.
