Parent Reviews
We love the Sunshine House on 18th! The wonderful staff takes such good care of our child. We appreciate that they prioritize learning, creativity, and outside play.
We couldn't say enough good things about The Sunshine House on18th! Our son has been going there for the last 4 years and has established great friendships. The staff are amazing and we know he is well cared for there. I love that they advance students into the next class by accounting for age as well as developmental milestones. The curriculum is play based which has helped my son thrive. I know that they love him and want him to be well prepared for when he starts school. The teachers are great about giving timely updates, including parents and posting a lot of pictures!
I sent my son for summer camp at Sunshine House, and wow! What an awesome experience for him. The opportunities he had within the camp, the field trips they had were fantastic. Couldn't have asked for a better summer camp for my son to go to! The staff was amazing and really connected with the kids. I would highly recommend the Sunshine House on 18th!
I don't even know where to begin! Sunshine House has been a blessing in disguise to my family! My children started going here 10 years ago, and to this day this center still has the same amazing director, quite a few of the same dedicated and loving teachers and the passion for learning goes above and beyond! If you are looking for a place that provides high quality care, has a passion for educating and feels like home, then look no further! Thank you Sara and your team for being exceptional!
I'm so glad we found a place that feels like home. The teachers, staff, and other families truly care about one another and the success of each child. I also love that we can get real-time update information throughout the day electronically (as much or as little as we want). It puts my mind at ease to have a strong sense of community and comfort dropping off my child each day.
via SunshineHouse.comThey are more than a day care center--Sunshine House E 18th St is a home away from home for my child and I. The entire staff works with the philosophy that childcare is also about families and relationships. They make sure to communicate with me and get to know me and my wishes for my child just as they make sure to get to know my child for who she is. We are a team. The children at Sunshine House are happy, well cared for, respected, and loved so that they can learn and grow to fulfill their potential as little human beings.
