I would definitely recommend this daycare, my child was super well cared for, Ana the owner, Rosy and Angelica are amazing. They took care of my child like it was there own my child always came home cleaned and feed meals are provided and her payment rate is reasonable considering other daycares around the area. My child also leaned a lot. Ana provides a cleaned and safe environment for the kids and has a good-sized yard for the kids to play in during warm weather. Ana is super professional and sweet and definitely loves what she does. It's definitely her passion to take care of the kids.
karina perezOct 25, 2024I was so lucky to find this daycare and Ana. She treated my child like her own and taught her so much. I was always kept informed on what happened during the day and was notified immediately if anything came up. She kept the children engaged with crafts, circle time to read and going on walks. My child was always happy and excited to get to daycare and had so much fun. They played outside in the snow during the winter and had water games during the summer. Ana made amazing and fresh food everyday for the children. We were sad when we had to move and not see Ana and her family anymore but we are so happy to have known them for the years my child was in her daycare.
Tabitha SorrocheSep 19, 2024My kids, Mason and Ryder, attended this daycare from ages 9 months (Ryder) and 1.5 years old (Mason) until they were both 5 years old. The love, care, and patience that Ana has shown my children have been incredible. She provided them with nourishing meals—breakfast, lunch, and snacks—and even to this day, my kids still ask about her. They say things like, “Why can’t we go to Ana’s?” Both of them are now in kindergarten and 1st grade, yet they still remember Ana fondly. Ana gave our family peace of mind every single day while our kids were in her care. She is so much more than just a daycare provider, and I pray that all families with little ones can find someone like Ana to care for their children.
Verlande CelestinSep 11, 2024“Little Explorers Day Care is truly the best! I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a safe and loving environment for their children. Both of my kids attended, and it quickly became a second home for them. Ana is absolutely amazing—my oldest adores her, and the two wonderful assistant ladies are just as fantastic. I always felt confident and at ease knowing my children were in such great hands.”
Flora NueSep 10, 2024I sent both of my kids to this daycare for two years. Ana and her team are outstanding! My kids thrived there. Even meals are home cooked and fresh-both of my kids now love veggies. Thank you Ana! We miss you.
Mimoza MeholliSep 10, 2024I started bringing my daughter there when she was around 2 years old. A very nice experience, Ana is very responsible and she took a good care of my baby. Even now during school break I sent My daughter there and she is very happy. Highly suggest👍
