I obtained services from this family / home daycare, dayhome and I find that:
"Ms Carol is the best out there, that’s why I have entrusted all my 3 children in her care. Ms Carol balances the day with structured learning, playtime and outdoor fun. The children are met with much care and nurturing and learn to interact positively with one another. I feel my children have had such a great start in life from attending her daycare. Because of Covid I decided to keep my daughter with Ms carol for her jk year and she has learn so much in her reading, writing and math! If you want the best care I highly recommend Ms carol!"

"Ms carol is the best in town!!! Both of my kids have been with ms Carol since last oct!!! The first thing after breakfast they do is putting cloth on and ask us to drive them to ms carols!! My Finnish in laws are very picky about everything and they loves ms carol, they have been talking about how great ms carol is after just the first visit!! I mean u can tell if the person really loves the kids, and the most important thing is the kids will never lie!!!

"Carol looks after my son during the school year when I work. She is incredibly patient and energetic with my son who has amazing amounts of energy! Her home is clean and welcoming. Her young daughters love helping her with the young children. She is a thoughtful and considerate daycare provider who sends me photos and updates each day. Her outings with the kids are fun and educational. I am happy to report that my son loves going to daycare every morning and usually hates to leave Carols house.
Thank you Carol for your hardwork and your care! You're awesome!!

"I've Known Mrs Carol since the first day Neil started daycare at Armadale Montessori School at the age of 2. I still remember Neil's first day. I left him with a broken heart, his crying lingering in my mind. I didn't know what I was doing in the office for the whole day. At the end of the day, when I came to pick him up, I saw Neil staying peacefully, though tired, in Mrs. Carol's arms. I knew I was lucky to have found the right person for Neil.
Day by day, Mrs. Carol became Neil's best friend and lover. And one day, Neil called Mrs. Carol his school mommy. I'm so grateful that each day I could go to work with peace of mind knowing Neil is always in good hands.
Mrs. Carol treats every kid like her own. She is the one who always holds the crying baby like a mommy. And that's why Neil gets jealous when there is a new kid in the classroom.
When Mrs. Carol decided to open her own home daycare this summer, without hesitating for even a second, Neil became one of her first students. She was fully booked for the summer within a week or so.
Now every day it's a joy for Neil to go to Mrs. Carol's house. Every morning Neil confirms with me, "are we going to Mrs. Carol's house NOW?" Apparently he is afraid of me sending him to somewhere else.
As a mother, you would wonder what your little one is doing at school: activities, learning, eating, playing or even sleeping. Now with the pictures Mrs. Carol emails to me, I don't need to guess any more. I know Neil is having so much fun, meanwhile learning new stuff each day: numbers, letters, colors, birds, crafts, sports...
Kids at her home daycare will definitely benefit from her many years' experience in teaching Montessori materials.
Mrs. Carol's home daycare is very well organized, clean and has a very comfortable environment. As a bonus, her husband, John cooks delicious and nutritious snacks, lunch with ingredients bought from Costco, her beautiful daughters Melissa and Jessie help around with kids like sisters.
I highly recommend Mrs. Carol's home daycare if you need someone who cares about your little ones, has a passion for teaching young kids, and need your little ones to get more attention than in a school."

"Thank you so much Cindy..
Neil and myself have a special bond :)
I remember neils first day and your first day Cindy ,
You both were crying that day , I didn't know who to hug first :-) .
But of course we did group hug ,then Neil took the lime light .
From that day on he has grown in so many ways and I feel so lucky to be apart of not only Neil but his beautiful family .
Summer is so much fun and Neil is getting along well with his new friends .
I wish you and Neil all the best in his new school in september :-) x x x x

"Hello,
Mrs Carol is an exceptional childcare provider. I have known her since my daughter started at Armadale Montessori Shcool last year. As she mentioned the Montessori shcool is moving. So I had to get an alternative for the summer. Mrs. Carol has started her home daycare business which was great for me. My daughter loves going to her place and enjoys being with Mrs. Carol. She is so much fun, enthusiastic and help as much as possible. Mrs. Carol also teaches the kids academic subejcts related to their age. Her home daycare is kept very clean and tidy at all times. Her family is also very friendly and nice. The option I chose included Lunch and snacks which are healthy balanced meals. Mrs. Carol is very patient, kind and grows a special relationship with each child. I will recommend her to anyone I know in need of her services."
