Q&A with Ms. Rachelle

What inspires you to care for young children?

Kids love to learn, and teaching is such meaningful work. I have two children and lots of nieces and nephews who I’ve cared for over the years. I also have experience in a school setting, working with children with autism. I’m patient and kind and have always wanted to have my own home daycare! Being able to give guidance to families and offer my home as a wonderful place for kids to spend their days is so special.

What’s a typical day like at your daycare?

Kids learn in many ways, and a good daycare has lots of opportunities to get ready for elementary school! In my program, we are play based and have a set schedule for our days - with lots of time spent outdoors. My home has a nice big backyard for outdoor activities and fun. Being around other young people is important and kids learn so much from each other, especially social skills, sharing, and compromising. My home is a wonderful place to learn and grow, and most kids stay in my program right up until it’s time to go to kindergarten!

What’s one thing parents should know about your program?

I have lots of experience with kids and love teaching. I believe that every situation can be a learning opportunity! I can remember a time when my son put his new books and toys in a bucket of water and left them to soak after reading a book about a dinosaur who was hot and needed a bath. I saw this as a teachable moment, and It really struck me on that day how much kids are able to learn - even from their mistakes - if we take the time to teach and approach them with patience and love. This is what I do for my daycare kids every day.

Rates & 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.

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.
