Catherine’s Family Day Care

As a single, military, new mother at times my schedule can be very unpredictable Catherine has been a blessing in my life. Since the first time I left my son in Catherine and Elizabeth’ s care they made my son and I feel so comfortable and welcome, I knew I had made the right decision in selecting them as my day care.
My son and I was made to feel like apart of the family, a family that understands my needs, and the needs of my son. I wish that I could better articulate my gratitude, but I’m just not sure where I would be without the fantastic service and love provided by Catherine and her family. The day a had to transfer was sad for my son and me because we left behind family.

For the past 10 years, Catherine and Elizabeth cared for, nurtured, and loved my three children. NEVER once did I experience any problems or have any concerns. My children have basically grown up with Catherine and her family. She is respectful, honest, and highly professional. I trust her and her family 100% with the care of my boys.
I give her the highest recommendation possible!

11 years ago I needed daycare overnight for my 4 month old son. I checked many daycare facilities, including the La Petites and Kindercares all over CV and wasn’t satisfied. Being a teacher, I knew what to look for in quality care for my son. When I met Catherine, I explained my urgent need for daycare and began to cry. She hugged me and said, «Everything will be alright and you can cry on my shoulder anytime». It was destiny from that point on.
She not only cared for my first son, but when I adopted two more little boys ages 14 mos. and 4 mos., she accepted them as part of the family and helped raise them too.
Her home is welcoming, clean, functional, engaging, and purposeful. She has learning games, puzzles, building blocks, books, and the day is highly structured and fun. When the kids play with toys or games, they are held responsible for cleaning up after themselves. Also, when a «kid» issue comes up, they are taught to verbally work out the issue with the assistance of an adult, and if needed, a time-​out is given.
Even though my boys no longer require daily care due to their ages, I frequently drop them off for a week, day, or maybe just two hours so I can run errands or take time for myself. I 100% trust my children and their overall welfare to Catherine, Elizabeth, Alfredo… and Julio!!!

Horrible! Unprofessional! Liars! My son was attending only a few days and maybe the second week he was there on a Saturday. I asked them to please call me if they leave with my son to the store and let me know when he is back. My sons dad called from deployment and asked to Skype us, I rushed to get my son and knocked on the door. Catherine only opened the inside door and spoke to me through the screen and told me my son was not there. Elizabeth, one of her workers had stepped out with him. Mind you, I was not advised of him leaving as I requested. Catherine told me to call Elizabeth. I sat outside her house and called Elizabeth for about 20 minutes and no answer. So I called Catherine back to ask if she could call her and tell her I was waiting and it was important he come soon so he could talk to his talk that he hasn’t seen in 6 months. She doesn’t answer her phone but responds to me through text that Elizabeth left her phone there! Excuse me ?! You have my son and don’t leave with your phone, I was so worried!!! Catherine then TEXTS to say Elizabeth was on her way back… Ummmm how do you know «if she left her phone» Not to go on with my rampage, I waited outside her house for an hour and a half waiting for my son. They got back and Elizabeth says she was at mall with him and asked what time I was bringing him the next day. I THINK NOT!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!

Catherine is amazing with kids of all ages. I started going to her when I was in Kindergarten and stopped when I was in about 6^th grade. Before her I bounced around different babysitters and day cares because they were a nightmare and very irresponsible. You wont have to worry about that at Catherine’s Family Day Care. I loved it so much that I looked her up and took my son there. I remember trips to the park with them and fun crafting activities. I also miss Catherine’s yummy healthy home cooked meals and snacks. I highly recommend Catherine’s Day Care.

Our daughter has been in her home day care for over a year and she just adores Catherine and Catherine treats her like part of the family. It’s clean, well organized and as a daycare provider she has been a huge role in our daughters socialization skills and how she plays, learns and interacts w others. Catherine communicates well with us as parents to let us know how our child does or where our child may need work. And best part is that she’ll often send me pic msgs so I can see my daughter during the day. :) It was hard going back to work but Catherine has made it very easy and looking back we wouldn’t have had it any other way.
