Recent parent reviews

  • We are extremely happy with the care and service our children receives at this daycare. Giselle is caring, professional, and always make us feel comfortable knowing our kids are in good hands. We truly appreciate everything she do for our family and would highly recommend her daycare to other parents!

  • My daughter Alice has been attending My Little Star Daycare for almost a year, and I have nothing but great things to say about Giselle and her daycare! ❤️ The daycare is always very clean, and that has been such a huge plus for us. My daughter barely gets sick, especially compared to her previous daycare where it felt like she was constantly getting sick. Alice has also learned so much with Giselle, both in English and Spanish. I absolutely love all the artwork and projects she brings home. It’s so nice to see how much she is learning and growing! I highly recommend My Little Star Daycare. It truly is a hidden gem! ⭐️

  • We absolutely love My little star daycare! Giselle is caring,patient and truly treats the children like family. The bilinguel program is a wonderful bonus. I especially love the small group setting because eeach child gets so much individual attention. I highly recommend My little star daycare to any parent looking for someone they can trust with their little ones!

  • Miss Gizelle she is the most respected and understanding. She just teach the curriculum and she don't push nothing on kids that against morals and values. She is already my neighbor I love her for the person she is so positive friendly and my son love be around her and he love do home work with her like he complain if she didn't give him work، cause he love to learn. Also if any family muslim like me you will love her she respected that we don't celebrate or do some things that not muslim so she make sur to not do it on there presence and if they will be in that day she will let you know to not bring your kids . So I recommend her daycare to anyone friends and family 👪 she is the best.

  • It is unfortunate to have to say this because we had such high hopes for our kids being in Giselle’s care. After only half a day at the daycare she sent my girls home, claiming she didn’t know one of them had meltdowns/tantrums. She is 3 years old, of course she has tantrums sometimes. This was after we made it clear to Giselle that our daughter is very sensitive and is in the process of getting evaluated (for what, at the time, we didn’t know). Come to find out later that neither of my kids wanted to eat much (such is bound to happen in a new place), and then she wondered why they both got a little out of pocket. On the list of “offenses” was that the 3 year old refused to sleep, which is a problem for her because all the kids have to nap at the same time. I totally understand that Giselle is on her own there so she has a specific plan of action that she can handle, and it is absolutely her right to refuse service. However, the things she said and her reasonings for why we were not welcome back did not make sense. And after only a few hours! No second chances. Absurd. Good luck to anyone whose child is in her care and isn’t the perfect child she is looking for.
