"5 stars (and more)
Since day one, I've been head over heels for this school. Everyone who works at Intiwasi is simply amazing—always supportive and helpful. I cannot even compare to our old school; this is on a whole other level. You can tell that so many who workthere, including the director, have their own kids here, and everyone puts a lot of thought and care into everything, from the meals to the curriculum. I feel totally comfortable leaving my little ones here, and seeing them happily walk into school every day fills me with joy and confidence. I can't recommend this place enough!

"I wanted to find a place where my son would be comfortable, happy, safe, and thriving. After our first visit, I knew that Grandmommy's Place was the right choice for us.

He was loved and well taken care of, which is all any parent could ask for when they are away at work....

"We've been sending our daughter to Nathalie and Bensimon Family Child Care for the last 3 years -- and it's the best parenting decision we have made. Nathalie is structured but loving, and our daughter comes home learning everything from painting and letters togardening and baking challah/pizza. There's a range of ages at the daycare but they do a great job of giving every child individual attention.
Bensimon Family Child Care uniquely cares about each child -- and specifically Nathalie has become a friend and an important part of our daughter's birthdays/recitals, etc.. We are grateful to this daycare for supporting our family and preparing our daughter for the years ahead. ...

"My son attended Happy Nook from age 10 months to 2 years. In that infant stage, my most important criteria for his care was that he was loved - and at Happy Nook, he was - in spades. During daily check ins it was clear that Priscilla and co. genuinely knew andcared for him and loved watching/helping him reach new developmental milestones as much as I did. I am so appreciative of the personalized care he received - and how easy it was to focus on my work/day knowing that he was in attentive and excellent hands. I also loved the amount of socialization that he was able to experience, forming lasting bonds with the other children; the amount of outdoor play that Priscilla’s home allowed - and the indoor toys/activities that kept him busy and happy; its convenient location; his early exposure to Spanish; that he always had healthy meals and snacks; the list goes on. I’m forever grateful for finding Happy Nook when I did and for the time my son spent there. ...
EXPERIENCED, REPUTABLE, AFFORDABLE CHILDCARE, IMPECCABLE REFERENCES!
"How I Treat Others Is My Opinion Of Myself!"
I am a highly experienced grandmother who provides loving childcare for newborns, infants and toddlers to 3-years of age. I limit my childcare to 3 children at any one time.This allows me to provide individual attention to each child, which I believe, is of the utmost importance.
I am a Home Care Provider. This type of care is known as Family, Friend and Neighbor, California (FFN) License Exempt Providers.
Home Care providers care for the children in their families as well as the children from two to three other families, not to exceed six children total. I only watch three children at any one time. Children go to the providers home for care. Home care providers are not licensed, they are usually very small and may only have your children and their own.
My home is located in a safe, family oriented area of Westchester, completely childproofed and kid friendly. I provide all childcare services from my home setting and guarantee it would be difficult to find a cleaner environment for your little one. Children are nurtured, loved and provided with a variety of stimuli to enhance their growth and development. In addition, I prepare them for the next step with early childhood tools and training plus potty training. Our days include story time, music, arts and crafts, outdoor fun and much more!
Presently, I have a RARE opening to provide room for one more. Preferably, a newborn, infant or child under 1 year of age. I encourage you to make an appointment and see for yourself the quality care I provide. Availability Monday - Friday, full-time. I have a valid driver's license and own an SUV. DMV records and references available upon request. I am experienced with newborns and infants with feeding issues. I have used regular bottles, Haberman feeders and the Mead Johnson bottles for cleft children. I am also certified in infant, toddler and child CPR and First Aid. In addition, I have been fingerprinted and passed background testing. Plus I have completed many ECE courses which I implement. Reasonable Rates!
I have watched Babies with cleft lip & palate, Cerebral Palsy, Cystic Fibrosis & More!

"Dee has a very unique amazing service. It's more of a "nanny share" situation since it's only 3 babies at a time. The babies are safe, happy, and truly adored by her. We sent our baby at 3 months old and he stayed for a year only because we are moving too far away.We will miss this situation with Dee because she is extremely attentive with our baby and we know he loves going to see her and Dave everyday. Could not recommend this daycare more!...

"I can't say enough good things about Ms. Ashley, who runs the childcare along with her daughter Macchi! We feel so fortunate to have found such a special duo because of the love, quality care, and personalized attention they gave to our son. They love him liketheir own! Every day he was exposed to books, music, outside time, and play that encouraged him to explore and reach new milestones. As soon as he saw Ms. Ashley and Macchi at drop-off, he would start smiling. Ashley also understands the challenge of being a new mom dropping off her first baby, and spoiled me with tons of photos and videos every day of our son in action. It was the perfect first childcare experience for our new family. If we hadn't moved cross-country to the east coast, we wouldn't have left their care!
