Children greet the day with such good energy and unconditional love. They are excited to learn, and it’s been a lifelong joy to teach them and be a part of their growth. When they hear a story for the first time, it’s like you’ve opened a door into a whole new world for them. When they make a piece of art they’re really proud of, it’s like they’ve figured out how to create a world of their own. (My favorite part of the day is watching the kids light up when they try new foods!) Through a child’s eyes, everything is exciting and magical. It’s incredible to be able to help fuel their imagination and to make sure their bodies are getting everything they need.
Every child in my program is special. Our days are very much driven by the interests of the children. We do have a bunch of regular activities that they love and that also help them develop new skills. For example, the kids are usually drawn to hands-on things like arts and crafts, dance, and playing outside. (We even have a little playground in the backyard with a swing!) It’s so important that each child feels supported and loved every day, but we make sure of it on their birthday! At this program, we love to celebrate everyone’s individuality.
Not only will the children be welcomed into this program with open arms, but their whole family will, too. We all want what’s best for the kids, and it’s such a pleasure to get to know the parents and to work with them as partners in caring for the children. After having four daughters and four grandkids, I understand how difficult it can be to look after small children on your own. I also know that it’s not always easy to find someone you connect with, who you can trust with your kids. Children have always brought such joy to my life, and I wanted to be able to offer them support at a young age while also helping local families. Parents should know that they will always be met with empathy and understanding. We will work together!

“If the child is not learning the way you are teaching, then you must teach in the way the child learns.”
~ Rita DunnDaycare 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.

There are 11 home daycares in Hyde Park. Most care for 6 to 10 children and take both infants and toddlers. All home daycares are licensed by the Department of Early Education and Care, just like preschool centers.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
We’re online Monday - Friday from 8am to 6pm Eastern.
