Small-scale child care in Walker Valley

Ms. Thania

Montessori Approach

Young children are so welcoming and fun to be around. They’re excited to learn new things, and that energy is great to be around. What we do at my daycare is create a supportive environment for the kids to shine in. I really look forward to welcoming new people into our community. After working as a daycare assistant for several years, I then worked with my mother at her daycare practice. Eventually, I took over the program. Caregiving has always been a family matter. I have three children now (ages 3, 6, and 13), and sometimes they’ll join us for music time. One son even plays the piano for the little kids. When we’re all singing and dancing and making community together—that’s the best part.

In this mixed-age group program, children get the socialization, stimulation and support they need to learn and grow.

Play-Based Learning

Children learn so much from interacting with each other. Our environment is set up for learning and growth, and I work with parents to make sure every child is happy here! I started working with kids as a babysitter to my nieces – and now I have children of my own as well. As an auntie and a mother, I have learned how to give kids a nice balance of independence and guidance, and use this knowledge daily in my program. Kids in my program become more independent as the days go by!

Academic Prep

A daycare should be a happy, positive place to be! I work with parents and families to get to know each child, so I can give specialized care and attention. We like to celebrate in my program, whether this is having a birthday party with decorations and activities, or just singing and dancing and having fun together. I began working with children as an assistant and worked in two different daycare settings before starting my own program - so I have lots of experience and love working with children! The very best part of what I do is seeing the happy expressions on the children’s faces when they are excited about an activity that we are doing together – each and every one of these smiles is a precious gift to me!

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.
