Our daughter was 10 months old when we started looking for a very good daycare as previously we had used a nanny. We needed more activities for our daughter and a place where she could meet new friends, be well taken care of, sleep comfortably, have fun learning activities, eat nutritious food and be loved by her new daytime family. Before deciding on daycare, we were worried as our daughter at the time did not sleep throughout the night and during the day, it was extremely difficult to put her to sleep. Also our daughter was a very picky eater as she did not eat baby food even though she was only 10 months old…wanted to eat adult food!
We looked at over 14 daycares and looking back, I can honestly say that Little Angels Child Care not only took all our fears away, but have lovingly taken care of our precious daughter to the point where our daughter can’t wait to go to daycare (she is almost 16 months now). She is always smiling when she arrives at daycare as she knows that she is going to a loving place and that we will be there to pick her up at the end of the day.
Upon entering the daycare we can easily review how often our daughter goes to the bathroom, number of feeding sessions and length of naps. The play area is very large with approximately 10 to 12 kids and 2 to 3 loving day care staff that constantly watch over the kids. The kids are very well behaved and have a good set schedule of play time, eating time, nap time and there is also a park right next to the daycare where all the kids can play.
Our daughter after being in daycare for only 2 weeks, was taking regular naps in the afternoon for 1.5 to 2 hrs and started sleeping longer at night to the point where she now sleeps through the night (10 to 11 hrs straight). The food they provide is also very nutritious including organic whole milk, fruits, vegetables, pasta etc..and our daughter never gets bored of the variety of food.
It is always a difficult choice for parents as we are trusting our precious child to the care of another group of individuals and kids. For a home based day care in Irvine, CA, Little Angels Child care should be at the top of your list as they provide loving care, have flexible hours(7:30 to 5:30), excellent well balanced meals, nice sleeping areas for infants and toddlers and a group of kids that all support each other and play together very well (there is a large window where you can see your kids play without them seeing you).
We are very appreciative of all the care and support Little angels has provided to our precious daughter and look forward to many more years.
