We have had a great experience at Silvia's Daycare. As first time parents we were not sure what to expect or even how to pick a good daycare for our son. Its location in our way to the office and the size of the facilities made the decision for us. We were lucky ending up with her. We did not want a place that would teach only discipline or how to follow rules but somewhere which focus on providing affection and confidence to the little ones as well. 

Caregivers and the teacher in Silvia's daycare are very sweet. Silvia also cooks yummy food for babies and toddlers. We sometimes need to ask her some tips because my son says the lunch in daycare tastes better than what we cook at home. They provide breakfast and lunch. It's a big help for us who both work. We are also very touched by their understanding smile when we sometimes cannot avoid arriving a bit late after work. They are not like some other daycares charging late-pick-up fee, as we hear from our friends. 

Silvia and her staff have created a nice structure and a warming environment where we have seen our son learn and grow. Our son started going there as an infant and once he could walk properly got graduated to the toddlers group. It is a nice setup where toddlers from difference ages play and do activities together. They sometimes have different groups depending on the activity. The small ones learn a lot from the big guys in the group. Over time the small ones become the big ones and they also learn to be patient with the new little ones coming. It was our case because our son stayed there till he was 4. He was lucky to share his life with a very diverse group in age, gender and background. When he got a little brother we were amazed how sweet he treated him from the beginning. He knew he needed to be careful and patient because newborns do not know a lot things. 🙂 That came definitively from Silvia's and their loving environment.

Along the time when he joined the toddlers' group, he learned to do artworks, to read alphabets, to be confident to "show and tell" in front of other kids, He usually tells us many things he loves doing in the daycare and we have been surprised by how much he learned and enjoyed there.

The facility is very near a playground and they send the kids there regularly. They make toddlers wear bright color T-shirt showing details of Silvia's Daycare so it seems they are safer. We always forget the name of the playground because for us it is the "daycare playground". We also make good friends with other parents who send their kids to Silvia's Daycare. Kids play and parents chat, this is what we love to do after work on weekdays. We go there on weekends quite often too because it is our son's favorite place to play and sweat.
