Q&A with Ms. Imesha
What inspires you to care for young children?
Kids bring good energy and perspective! They have this ability to bring out the best in people. It’s a pleasure to get to know them as individuals, too. At this age, children are dealing with a lot of emotions—sometimes really big ones!—and it’s vital that they feel heard and understood. The kids who come to this daycare will always have a sympathetic ear to talk to. Children are at the heart of every community, and in opening my program, I hope to help local families receive accessible and great care for their children. Educating the next generation has always been a passion of mine. In fact, I have two nearby preschools that I’ve been running for the past decade. The children in this program will be looked after by a devoted caretaker.
What’s a typical day like at your daycare?
We’re always doing something fun and exciting—while learning at the same time! At this program, we emphasize the joy and significance of reading. Story time is probably the part of the day that we all look forward to the most. The kids become so enchanted by some of the books that we read as a group. The experience of going through a story together is really encouraging to them. It makes them want to read on their own! We also spend a fair amount of time outdoors and working on arts and crafts project. (They love to express themselves with paint!) Overall, we’re really focused on the growth of the children. As a dedicated educator, I strive to prepare the kids for elementary school, the next chapter!
What’s one thing parents should know about your program?
Communication is key! Parents should know that it’s a real honor to be trusted with taking care of their kids, and I want to make sure they feel fully up-to-date on what’s happening in their children’s daily lives. Families will always know what activities and special events are on the agenda. I strive to be their eyes and ears when they can’t be there. Similarly, they should feel comfortable coming to me with any concerns—big or small! Together, we can find solutions and make sure these kids blossom.

“Every day, through engagement in the arts, our children learn to open their imagination, to dream just a little bigger and to strive every day to reach those dreams.”
~ Michelle ObamaRates & Openings
Daycare rates depend on how old your child will be and what your schedule looks like. 5 days / week might get a slight discount, and infant rates are usually more than toddlers’. Finding a spot also depends on age and schedule because each daycare has a limited number of openings for each age range.

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.
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.
