This place is truly a gem! After attending another daycare, we were looking for a safer, more professional environment for our daughter, and we found exactly that here. From day one, the staff has made us feel supported, valued, and confident that our child is receiving exceptional care. I have to give a special shoutout to Ms. Fatima in Infant Room A. She made our daughter’s transition so smooth, and the bond they’ve built has been incredible to watch. My daughter absolutely adores her—and sometimes when Ms. Fatima is holding her, she doesn’t even want to come back to Mommy right away! 😊 I also cannot say enough about Jack, the Assistant Director. My daughter was born with a clubfoot and currently wears boots-and-bar braces as part of her treatment. The staff has been wonderful about following her specific care instructions, which means so much to our family. One experience, in particular, speaks volumes about the level of care here. On a Friday, my daughter’s braces were accidentally left at the daycare. Because consistency is critical to her treatment, I was worried about her missing even one night. Without hesitation, Jack met me at the daycare after 9:00 PM and opened the building so I could retrieve them. That act of kindness and dedication ensured my daughter stayed on track with her treatment, and it’s something I’ll never forget. Between the caring staff, live camera access, excellent communication, and the genuine love they show the children, this daycare has given our family tremendous peace of mind. We are so grateful to be part of this community. 10/10 experience—highly recommend!
Maryka CarterJun 11, 2026Jack is the assistant director and he is the best! He has been so helpful, understanding, and enthusiastic about having our little one join. All the teachers have been so Smiley and welcoming every time we’ve come in for a preview.
Jade KleinpeterFeb 25, 2026Amazing daycare! My 1-year-old has grown so much since joining Children of America. Toddler A teachers Ms. Naya & Ms. Nina are patient, caring, and help my child learn new words and songs. We really appreciate them!
Sabrina GrayDec 5, 2025This was my daughter’s very first daycare experience, and I couldn’t have picked a better place! In her current classroom, Two B, Ms. Sidarrieca and Ms. Jasmine have created a nurturing atmosphere filled with patience and creativity — from story time to hands‑on learning projects. My daughter has adjusted so well thanks to their care. I also want to recognize Ms. Iyana, Ms. Zainab, Ms. Charlene, Ms. Pam and Ms. Laverne, whose love and dedication made our experience even more special. We are truly grateful for the genuine care and commitment all of these teachers show every day.
RynishaDec 4, 2025Beyond in love with this daycare, I never felt my kids were 100% safe and care for at any other daycare until I put my daughter in children of America. My daughter is in Ms.Fatimah class Infant A and she cares for my daughter as if she’s her own, my daughter is crawling and standing early and is close to walking at 8 months! she also keep me informed about everything, when I drop my daughter off she lights up seeing her teacher it’s a wonderful feeling as a mother to know your child is safe! #infantA
Nina CarterDec 2, 2025Where can I start! My baby has been here since he was 6 mos old, I loved his first teacher sm, and now he is with Ms Charlene and she is also amazing! From the day I toured she made me feel so comfortable and it was her who solidified my choice of COA. She's great with my son and I can tell she genuinely cares for all the children in her class. I see her from the cameras sometimes playing with and teaching the babies in the class and they seem so engaged. Anytime my son has had an accident or there's been any issue (him not feeling well, soiled clothes, etc) she's been very communicative and reassuring and seems genuinely concerned about his well being. Front staff is also great; I love Nicole, she's very kind and helpful! Overall I'm beyond happy and grateful for all the staff here who love on my baby while I have to work. I even referred my coworker! If you're on the fence, choose them, you won't regret it!

Is CHILDREN OF AMERICA CHESTNUT HILL a licensed child care provider in Pennsylvania?
- Yes. CHILDREN OF AMERICA CHESTNUT HILL holds Pennsylvania certificate 102699358-0001, listed as "LICENSED" by the Office of Child Development and Early Learning in Philadelphia County. The current certificate runs to December 11, 2026. Confirm current standing at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch before enrolling.
What is CHILDREN OF AMERICA CHESTNUT HILL's Keystone STARS rating?
- Pennsylvania rates CHILDREN OF AMERICA CHESTNUT HILL STAR 3, on a scale of one to four where four is highest. That tier took effect on February 22, 2026. Keystone STARS measures programme standards such as staff qualifications and learning environment, not inspection outcomes.
Does Pennsylvania record a negative sanction against CHILDREN OF AMERICA CHESTNUT HILL?
- No. The state's provider dataset records no negative sanction against CHILDREN OF AMERICA CHESTNUT HILL at the time the record was published. That is a single field in a snapshot, not a full compliance history, and it is not the same as a clean inspection record. The licensing inspection detail is at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch.
Does CHILDREN OF AMERICA CHESTNUT HILL accept child care subsidy?
- Yes. CHILDREN OF AMERICA CHESTNUT HILL holds a subsidy agreement with the state. The agreement covers these age groups: Infant and toddler, Preschool, School-age. An agreement means the provider can bill the subsidy programme, not that a funded place is free today. Eligibility is decided by your Early Learning Resource Center, Early Learning Resource Center for Region 18.
Does this page show inspection results for CHILDREN OF AMERICA CHESTNUT HILL?
- No. Pennsylvania completes at least one unannounced inspection a year at every licensed provider, and publishes the results through the provider search at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch. Those results are not included here, and there is no open dataset of them, so nothing on this page reflects CHILDREN OF AMERICA CHESTNUT HILL's inspection history either way. Look the provider up there and read the licensing inspection record.
