Ms. Soidiver

Play-Based Learning

Children are full of endless potential. It’s truly incredible to see what they’re capable of when given a safe environment that they feel supported in. Every child requires something a little different, and it’s so rewarding when you, as a caregiver, can help them find their confidence and passion. As a parent and a foster parent, I have seen the impact that care, patience, and education can have on a child’s life. When you give a child a chance, they will undoubtedly surprise you.

Ms. Carla

Bilingual Daycare

Children are at the heart of everything. They are our hope for the future. They are the core of our local communities. Creating an environment that contributes to the overall growth of young children is one of the most rewarding things a person can do with their life. When I was raising my own children (who are now in their 20s!), our house was always “that” home in the neighborhood, the one that all the kids flocked to, the one where everyone had a good time, the one where everyone felt safe and nurtured. To have other parents trust you with their children is an immense privilege. It’s also incredible to get to know the neighborhood through the eyes of these kids.

Ms. Leana

Infant Care

As a daycare provider, it’s my number one priority to create an environment where children learn – from me and from each other! I have two boys of my own and I have seen how much growth happens just from the two of them playing together, using their imaginations, and working through challenges that come up. I work hard to create an environment where these kinds of interactions can happen, so that children are developing both social and life skills as they go through my program. I love seeing the smile on a child’s face when they are playing with friends, learning, and having fun, and I treasure all the “a-ha” moments that I’m lucky enough to be part of.

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.
