A good daycare program gives parents extra support in the years before school starts! When I had my son three years ago, I realized how difficult it was to find care, especially since I worked off hours and needed flexibility. It was a real struggle, and I want to help parents who are facing that same challenge. I have experience with kids not only as a mother to a three-year-old, but as a teacher’s aide and a daycare assistant. I’m proud to use my skills to help kids reach their goals and potential and support families with less traditional schedules!
We are flexible here, and our days are all about the kids and what they are interested in. One thing we do almost every day is music time – the kids love listening to their favorite songs, jumping around, and being able to get their sillies out! We also spend a lot of time outdoors, having fun with sensory play and exploring nature. We love to see how the seasons change and do activities around them, like hunting for colorful leaves in fall and plants and bugs in spring. Arts & crafts are another fun time of day here, and the kids love to bring their work home and show people at home how much they are learning!
My program is unique in many ways. I really get to know each child so that I can figure out what works for them and make it happen! My home is a comfortable place to learn and play, with a backyard space for outdoor fun! Kids learn through play here, and there’s always lots of creativity flowing - I love encouraging children into the mindset where they are ready to use their own imaginations! Another benefit I offer is help with potty training – I was able to train my son early and easily, and incorporate what I learned with him into my program to help other kids and families.

“If children feel safe, they can take risks, ask questions, make mistakes, learn to trust, share their feelings, and grow.”
~ Alfie KohnDaycare 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 2 home daycares in Maplewood Historic District. Most care for 6 to 10 children and take both infants and toddlers. All home daycares are licensed by the Office of Children and Family Services, 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.
