  • This is my first experience sending my first-born to daycare, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better start. Yeli is so warm, welcoming, and attentive, and her staff are just as kind and nurturing. From day one, my daughter—who had only been home with me until starting—transitioned so smoothly and quickly warmed up to them, which meant so much to me as a parent. My daughter started at 1 year and 10 months and now genuinely looks forward to going. She comes home and is able to verbalize what she did throughout the day, which I love hearing. I also really appreciate how supportive they are with potty training, since she was just beginning that journey when she enrolled. Their daily activities are well-rounded and engaging—crafts, outdoor play, structured learning through activities, free play, and nap time. They also provide meals, which is a huge help. Overall, I am extremely happy with our experience here. Yeli and her staff truly feel like part of our village, and I highly recommend Venice Shores Daycare to any parent looking for a caring and supportive environment for their child.

  • Venice Shores has been such a blessing. My daughter has been there since she was 5 months old and has now attended for 3 years. Yeli and team are incredibly caring, attentive, and always makes the children feel safe and loved. The environment feels peaceful, welcoming, and like leaving your child with family. They have fostered my child’s growth through all the early life stages from infancy through toddler and now little kid, with support to develop gross and fine motor skills, as well as speech, social interaction and creativity. I love that the kids do arts and crafts like painting, drawing, and paper crafts, along with going on walks and enjoying outdoor physical activity during the warm months. The daycare is also exceptionally clean and well maintained every day, which gives me great peace of mind. The extended and flexible hours are also much better than many other daycares in the area. Pickup and drop off is very smooth and convenient for working families. I highly recommend Venice Shores for any growing family in the area.

In the same way, I thank God for having found a daycare as it is, which gives a lot of help to my children. A very clean place all the time, you feel an incredible atmosphere, the food made at home very healthy, and above all Yeli and her employees are a love, very friendly and affectionate my children have been attending to this daycare for a short time and they are delighted and have had a very great development. I recommend this daycare as the best!! Where you can leave your children without any worry because they are very well cared for them. My children Kevin & Andy are very comfortable with all of you.

  • I am very much satisfied with with the service provided by this daycare. They are very organized and clean which was very important to me. My two year old always has a smile on her face when I drop her off and when she gets picked up. The personnel at this facility is a beautiful family and loving towards all the children. I am so lucky to have found such caring people. My daughter has learned so much in the past three months and I owe it all to them. They go above and beyond to make sure my munchkin is well taken care of and safe !

  • **Let me start by saying.. THANK GOD for this daycare and the amazing people who work there.!!!** I started bringing my daughter there when she was only 4 months old and even though it was hard leaving her I was confident that I was leaving her in the best hands-It really felt like family since day 1. My baby is 8 months now and I’m extremely pleased with the care they provide my daughter everyday, I wouldn’t take her anywhere else.! I love the safe and caring environment, how loving and nurturing they all are with my daughter, the cleanliness of the place, food is homemade and always fresh, they really make their best effort to make the kids feel at home. I have nothing but gratitude for Venice Shores Daycare … Hands down they are the best thing that happened to us!! 😊🙏🏼
