I have always felt a natural inclination to care for and protect children. To be able to contribute to their physical, emotional, and academic development, always keeping in mind that they are not small adults but growing human beings who need our greatest support, with love and patience. I made an expression of mine: "We can educate and discipline with love".

“If children feel safe, they can take risks, ask questions, make mistakes, learn to trust, share their feelings, and grow.”
~ Alfie KohnHere’s the inside scoop from other parents that have worked with Ms. Australia.
Having Australia to look after my little one was really wonderful. She looked after him since he was 8 months and until past his 2nd birthday. All this time, she really gave him the loving care and attention a little one needs. Leaving him with Australia every morning always gave me peace of mind - knowing that he was well taken care of, given delicious healthy food, enriching activities, and that he was well napped. And this transpired in his happy and relaxed face every afternoon when we picked him up. We miss her dearly and wish her all the best in her new daycare.
Ms. Australia was such a wonderful first experience to have in a daycare. We were looking for a family feel when it came to our childcare for our son and Australia exceeded our expectations. From the care she gave him and the yummy home cooked meals we could not have asked for a better experience. She and her family were so welcoming and my son was overjoyed to go there every single day!
Australia is such a loving and dedicated educator. She cared for my two daughters since they were 3 months old and has become like a mother to them. I love that they were also able to learn Spanish while in her care! She's so great with young children. I would recommend her to any family searching for care.
She is wonderful. Words aren’t enough to describe how amazing she is. She cares for my daughter as if she was her own. I am truly blessed to have found her.
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.

There are 3 home daycares in Norwood. 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.
