Parent Reviews
Based on our experience Ms Latifa is an excellent daycare provider that one can find. Our son started with her when he was 14 months old and adapted really quickly. He has now been there for about 6 months and walks up the stairs every morning to knock on her door and give her a big hug. She is a warm and welcoming person, and kids feel really comfortable with her. She cooks meals for them everyday, makes fresh bread and at the same time plans for activities based on different themes to keep them entertained. This is great as it not only makes it easy for us but mainly allows peer influence to get kids to try everything. I have no doubt my son is loved and safe there. I would definitely highly recommend Ms Latifa for anyone looking for childcare.
Latifa is a wonderful daycare provider. I feel at ease knowing my child is in her care. My eldest son attended her daycare, and now with my second son, there was nobody else I wanted except her. The children love her. Latifa is very nurturing and attentive. The home is safe, clean, and she keeps the children engaged with activities every day.
Ms. Latifa is the most amazing person ever. My daughter is two and a half now, and she's been going to Ms. Latifa since she was three months old. As a parent, I remember feeling nervous about leaving my child, especially when she was so young. Ms. Latifa reassured me, saying, "Do not worry, your daughter is safe, and she's going to be taken care of." Since then, I have been at ease because she takes the best care of my daughter. Ms. Latifa cooks well for her and even shares meal recipes with me that my daughter enjoys at daycare. My daughter loves going to her. Every morning, even when my daughter is giving me a hard time getting ready, when I mention of going to "Mama Latifa" excites her. She always exclaims, "Yay, Mama Latifa!" She absolutely loves her. Even on weekends, my daughter asks, "Mommy, Mama Latifa?" Ms. Latifa is truly heaven sent and the most amazing human being. She has a motherly love that she extends to my child, and I've seen how she interacts with other kids as well. She's like that with every child in her daycare. Taking my daughter at her daycare was the best decision ever.
Your kids will always remember “Mama Latifa”. My daughter always describes Latifa as the best teacher ever, and I second this.
Latifa is very nice and takes good care of the kids. My kids love her so much. Always rushing to go to “mama Latifa’s house”. I recommend it 100%!!!!
