Parent Reviews
Our son has been at the daycare from age 2 and is now 4 years old. The staff is loving and caring. The program blends just the right amount of play and educational material. Older kids get opportunities to care for the younger ones. Everyone gets plenty of outdoors time, lots of love and healthy meals. We could not be happier with this daycare!
We absolutely love Angelina’s daycare. Our son has been attending for a couple of years—he feels safe, happy, and is well-nurtured by the warm and inviting environment Angelina and her teaching staff have created. We couldn’t be happier and are constantly surprised by how much he is learning and growing everyday from a caterpillar to a beautiful butterfly. Thank you for being such an important part of our Bernal community.
Angelina cared for my two kids (ages 4 & 3) and they absolutely ADORED her. She is really good at what she does, an absolute natural with the kids, and was easy to communicate with and get along with for us. She kept a good schedule/rhythm to the day and always sent pictures of my kids making meatballs, doing outdoor crafts and going on neighborhood outings. Our kids went on to be in preschool every day and we miss having regular Angelina time!!!
Angelina is a wonderful, loving childcare provider. We were so excited when she started her own daycare! At her previous job, she cared for my son full-time for more than two years. That center closed unexpectedly, and Angelina stepped in to care for a group of the kids full-time while also opening Caterpillars a Mariposas. The metaphor is so very true, too - she has helped my son grow into a butterfly. Angelina has fantastic hours for working parents, cooks nutritious food, and loves to get the kids outside as much as possible. I cannot recommend her enough!
Angelina has cared for our two kids for the past five years. She’s amazing with kids of all ages. She always has your child’s best interests in mind. There’s something truly magical about her interactions with children. Angelina is very involved in the local community, communicative with parents, and just an all-around trustworthy and good person. She is so creative with kids’ projects/art/extracurriculars. Her daycare space is incredibly clean, kid-centric, organized, and close to Bernal parks and library. Her hours are working-parent friendly and she provides all meals and snacks (such a blessing!). She’s been accommodative when we’ve had work trips or events that require extra hours or flexibility, which has been a lifesaver for us. We couldn’t recommend her daycare more!
Angelina is very good at what she does her daycare is very clean and she is very good with the children she has watched 3 out of 4 of my children and I would highly recommend her to watch your children she is very good at what she does and has been in the daycare field for 15 plus years
