Ms. Yadira

Academic Prep

When it comes to working with children, experience can make a big difference! My career in childcare started in an early intervention program, and that position was just the beginning of a wonderful ten years (and counting) as an educator. I have a unique teaching philosophy that really encourages children to explore, and I know how to offer encouragement and gentle redirection when it is needed. The children and I really develop a close relationship, and our environment is truly one of mutual love and respect. What I love most about working with children is welcoming students into such a wonderful space every day, seeing their smiles and joy as they play, and being part of so much learning and growth.

Play-Based Learning

Children have this magical ability to constantly surprise you. After many years of babysitting and having three children of my own, you would think I’ve seen it all, but every child really is a unique puzzle. It is so rewarding to put the pieces together—to find out what makes them click, what makes them comfortable, and what makes them happy. Every child learns a little differently, but once we work together to find the environment and methods that work best for them, there is no limit to what they can accomplish here.

Ms. Jocie

Play-Based Learning

Before I opened Little Heavenly Moments Daycare, I worked for thirteen years as a medical assistant—with a specialty in pediatrics—and raised two daughters of my own. I love taking care of people, and I bring that same mindset to my program. I want children and their parents to feel safe, understood, and nurtured. It’s about getting on their level and meeting kids where they are. I think my love for kids and caretaking comes from growing up as the youngest of seven siblings. By the time I was old enough to care for children, I had lots of nieces and nephews running around. Now I have twenty-seven! I think it’s such a treat to help children grow into beautiful adults.

Play-Based Learning

Connecting with children at their own level is so important! In my home daycare, we learn in many different ways – through songs, art, books, and play, and I’m usually right alongside them during these activities! I feel a lot of joy being part of so many learning experiences and milestones. The small size of my program means that I really get to know what makes each child unique. I was lucky enough to discover at a young age how rewarding it is to interact with and teach young children every day. My very first job was at a daycare center! Having my own program doubles those rewards because of the trust and relationships that develop with caregivers and families. We really work together to make sure their children are happy, thriving, and excited to come to ‘school’ every morning.

Ms. Suleica

Montessori Approach

Every child is special in their own way! My very first job was in childcare, and I have been doing it ever since. After eighteen years of being around children, I really know how to give each unique individual the chance to grow and shine. My program is open to all, and my mission is to educate children so that they are well prepared for a life of purpose, integrity, and academic accomplishment. This is what I love most about working with children – knowing that I am giving them valuable tools for their life journey and a strong foundation in learning.

FAQs

Your family is unique to you, but some of your questions might not be. 😉 Here’s what most parents want to know when starting out.

What is NeighborSchools?

Hey there, nice to meet you 👋 We’re a new-ish startup that helps new-ish parents find daycare.

We know how hard finding good child care can be - especially for first-time parents. But really good care is what gives you the peace of mind to go back to work and feel confident that your child is getting the stimulation, socialization, and support they need to learn and grow.

So we created NeighborSchools to make this piece of parenthood a whole lot easier. We say “easier” because, let’s be honest, it’s still a big thing to figure out, but working together we can help you find some good options, understand the whole process, and choose a program you’ll feel really good about.

How’s it work?

Most first-time parents don’t know exactly what they’re looking for, so we created a simple survey that will ask you questions about your lifestyle, your daily routines, and your preferences for child care. We’ll then share 3 personalized recommendations that we think might be a good fit. We’ll also give you a timeline that maps out when we would suggest you start touring programs, choose a daycare, and pay a deposit to secure a spot. Your timeline is based on when you want to start care - so you set the pace, and you decide when you’ve found the right match.

Is there a cost?

Nope. Our daycare recommendation service is free for parents. The other half of our business is helping these small-scale daycares with software and services that handle all their administrative tasks, like online contracting, payment processing, and licensing requirements. Before NeighborSchools, services like these were only designed for large corporate child care centers, and part of our mission is to level the playing field for small, independent child care programs. That’s why we picked the name NeighborSchools - we’re all about making child care more personal, more human, and more equitable for the incredible individuals who do this work and care for our children.

How do I know if I’m ready to take the survey?

Generally, if you’re here, you’re ready. The survey lets us give you 3 recommendations to consider, but it’ll also help you better understand what factors to consider, and what questions to be asking right now. It’s simple things like where you live, your child’s date of birth, when you want to start care, and if you have any preferences around program philosophy or language of instruction. If you’re planning 6+ months ahead, it’s a great way to get started, and if you’re hoping to start daycare in the next 2-4 months, it’s definitely time to get started. Click here to start the survey.

How do I know if a daycare has openings?

Each program has a limited number of spots for each age range, so we need to know your schedule and child’s age before we can share availability. The survey covers these basics, as well as factors like drop-off and pick-up times to make sure that recommended programs fit your daily routine. Once we know your child’s age and schedule we can share rates and costs as well.
