Quick answers to the questions we hear most

All ages, from infants through 12 years old, in a warm mixed-age setting. Our heart is in the toddler and preschool years — and siblings are always welcome.

Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Please plan to drop off by 9:00 AM so the day can settle into its routine. Need earlier, later, or weekend care? We offer early mornings (before 8:00 AM), evenings, weekends, and overnight care by reservation — something almost no home daycare in the Valley does.

Full-time monthly tuition is $1,500 for infants (0 to 2), $1,350 for toddlers (2 to 3), and $1,250 for preschool (3 to 5). Part-time (3 days) runs $1,100 / $1,050 / $1,000, and drop-in days are $100 for any age. School-age rates on request. Tuition is slot-based, so it reserves your child's spot year-round.

All meals and snacks, plus our arts and movement enrichment. There are no hidden add-ons.

We provide all meals and snacks — healthy, home-cooked, and allergy-conscious. You're always welcome to send food for allergies or preferences. For infants under one, you provide the milk, and we suggest sending your baby's food too.

You bring your child's specific brand of diapers and wipes. Children's skin reacts to unfamiliar products, so we don't substitute.

By the book — California's book. Babies sleep on their backs, in their own crib or approved play yard, with nothing in it but a firm mattress and a fitted sheet. We physically check every sleeping child under two every 15 minutes and write each check down. You'll fill out an Individual Infant Sleeping Plan with us at enrollment.

Keep your child home for fever, vomiting, diarrhea, or anything contagious, and they can return after 24 hours symptom-free without medication. We do a gentle health check each morning and tell you if we notice anything.

Yes, with a careful written process: you provide the medication in its original container, with written authorization on the state consent form, and we log every dose. We can't accept medication requests by phone or text.

Flat monthly tuition on auto-pay on the 1st, through our parent app. Same amount every month.

Yes — 10% off the second child's tuition.

$25 for each 30 minutes, or part of it, after 5:00 PM. But if you've reserved evening care ahead of time, it's not a late pickup — it's extended care, billed at its own rate, no fee and no guilt.

Please do. For the children's safety and privacy, tours are scheduled after hours, when no children are on the premises.

Through our parent app — daily updates and photos — plus quick check-ins at drop-off and pickup.

Mostly play-based, with a special focus on movement, music, and the arts, woven together with early math, literacy, and kindergarten readiness.

Constant supervision. A door that stays locked. Regular fire and earthquake drills, logged. Authorized-pickup only, with photo ID until we know you. Every adult in our home is background-checked, and a qualified backup caregiver steps in if Elham is ever ill. Our license and safety notices are posted on the wall.

Your child's diapers and wipes, two labeled changes of clothes, any food you'd like to send, and sunscreen with your written permission.

Ask us for our daily schedule and follow the same rhythm at home for a week before starting. For infants, start with half-days — a gentle beginning makes a confident settling-in.

Tour first, then a conversation. Then the enrollment forms, the registration fee, and the deposit to reserve your child's spot.
