Parent Reviews
Our son spent a year with Ada starting at 9 months old. This is a dream daycare. The most caring teacher, fun and thoughtful learning activities, hot homemade breakfast and lunch, Spanish immersion, and truly so so much love. Ada genuinely cared for my child as if he was her own and I’m forever grateful for the support. Bring your child here, you will have zero regrets!
We were incredibly lucky to join Little Friends shortly after it opened in 2023! Our daughter started here at 3 months old and I could not have felt more comfortable leaving her in Ada's care. Ada is kind, patient, and loving with the children she cares for. She helped my daughter learn and grow at so many stages of her development. She's helped my daughter transition to solids as an an infant and learn potty training as a toddler. For the older children, Ada organizes a schedule, giving kids the opportunity to practice circle time, arts & crafts, and open play. My daughter has left with excellent vocabulary for her age in both Spanish and English despite only speaking English at home. The Little Friends space is clean, safe, and fun for kids and includes a protected outdoor space just off the main room which the kids love to run around in on warm days. Drop off and pickup always went smoothly. Meals provided are homemade, balanced, and look very tasty! Ada often works with her mother, Carla, who is also fabulous. Child : daycare provider ratios always felt more than adequate. Ada is incredibly flexible with adjustments to schedule or need for other family members to pick up or drop off my daughter. Ada shares pictures regularly throughout the day, communicates clearly when our daughter needs any supplies replenished (diapers, clothes, etc), and is easy to reach over text message throughout the day. We could not recommend Ada and Little Friends more highly. This is a fabulous daycare run by a thoughtful, knowledgeable, kind woman. Congratulations, Ada, on more than 2 years now running an amazing daycare!
My daughter started at The Little Friends Childcare last month and we couldn’t be happier! Ada is such a nice, kind and caring individual and our girl is happy to meet her every morning. The place is small but cosy and equipped with a lot of toys, books, games and art supplies. The apartment has a secure outside area and every day is packed with fun activities and tasty meals. I feel very comfortable leaving our girl there every morning and Ada has been very accommodating to our needs. I recommend Ada’s daycare 100% and wish her all the luck in the world.
Thanks for the support and I’m very happy to have Athena in my daycare. 💗
