Q&A with Ms. Maryjean
What inspires you to care for young children?
A home daycare should be a positive and happy place for children to spend time in! One of the most important parts of being a home provider is teaching children to care for one another and be kind to each other. We work on kindness and cooperation every day in my program, and it’s an important part of the special community we create together! I began working with children when I was just twelve years old, as a babysitter for families in my neighborhood – and even then, I had a real passion for taking care of children. That passion has only grown stronger over the years! Being part of so many children’s lives is such a joy.
What’s a typical day like at your daycare?
Children thrive when there are set routines in place! Our typical day unfolds around a schedule that is consistent and helps the children transition to different activities easily. Of course, we have plenty of fun built into that schedule! We do all kinds of activities that allow kids to enjoy themselves and learn new things - arts and crafts, cooking, educational worksheets, backyard games and play. We also spend alot of time outdoors – there is nothing like fresh air and exercise to create a happy mood and positive energy! Circle time is another special part of our routine - the kids really look forward to having time to get together and share. There is just so much to look forward to in every day we spend together.
What’s one thing parents should know about your program?
It takes a whole lot of people to raise a child up! I work with parents and caregivers as a trusted partner and work hard to build these positive relationships. This helps connect my program with the kid’s lives at home, and it models to the children how important it is to communicate with each other and treat each other with kindness and respect. It’s so deeply meaningful to me to think about the impact my daycare program has had on so many children – and this certainly goes both ways! I once had a ten-year old write a letter about how I inspired her in her life – and what a wonderful gift that letter was! There have been many special moments like this over the years, and they all bring joy to my heart.

“It is time for parents to teach young people early on that in diversity there is beauty and there is strength.”
~ Maya AngelouRates & 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.
