Recent parent reviews
I am beyond grateful for independent toddler childcare. Since starting here, my 16-month-old has progressed so much in ways that truly amaze me. He is exposed to a variety of engaging, age-appropriate activities every day that support his development, confidence, and curiosity. What means the most to me is how happy he is — he genuinely looks forward to coming to school, which speaks volumes about the loving, safe, and nurturing environment the caregivers create. Seeing him excited to arrive and content when he’s there gives me complete peace of mind as a parent. The care, attention, and dedication shown to each child is evident, and the experience has been nothing short of wonderful. I feel incredibly lucky to have found a place where our child is not only cared for, but truly supported and encouraged to grow. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a positive, enriching daycare experience

Olivia SerranoNov 2, 2025I can't say enough good things about ITC. My daughter started at 16 months and has been so loved and nurtured there. The staff come up with fun activities everyday and are so caring. I love that it's a small group of kids of varying ages, and very affordable for this area.
Rachel OldingJul 27, 2025We would love to thank Sharon and Maisat for their time, effort and support they show our son while attending Independent Toddler Daycare. We were so happy to find this daycare especially after the pandemic they welcomed him with open arms and took good care of him. What we loved about this daycare was how personal and distinct this daycare is with the kids and their learning experience. Our son learned so much and we are nothing but grateful!!! Thank you, thank you!
