Ney Street Family Day Care

Cecilia has been taking care of my son since he was 3 months old. Now, he is over a year. He just loves Cecilia and the staff that takes care of him. They just take care of him with so much love and care. I have no doubt that he is in good hands.

We couldnt be happier since finding Ney St Daycare and meeting Cecelia Chavez. Our daughter Evelyn adores her. We were nervous at first, sending our little one off to daycare, but we knew after how happy and content our daughter was after coming home on the first day, that we had made the right choice. One thing I noticed right away that I really love about Cecelia is that she reports back at the end of every day, and tells us how Evelyn did, what she ate, if she slept, she’s just very on the ball. We know shes not just watching the babies but she’s really engaging with them. Cecilia cooks healthy meals for the children and speaks to them in spanish and english, plays, reads and sings to them, she is just amazing. Honestly, one of the sweetest people I have ever met. We feel so lucky to have found her. Our daughter is so happy there and we feel so comfortable dropping her off knowing that she in such good hands. We just love Cecelia!

We have been thrilled to have our son attend Ney Street Family Day Care for the past year. He started when he was 1year old. It was the first time that I left him in the care of anyone other than immediate family, so I put a lot of effort into my choice! Cecelia is an amazing woman and care provider. What really sold me and continues to impress me is her genuine love of my son (and his of her). Her overall character is very honest and authentic, this is not just business. The children are extensions of the family, with her mother-​in-​law and daughter greeting the kids when they are home. She creates an environment that allows children to learn about themselves and the world around them with a smile and confidence. To top it all off, she is very flexible if you need extra hours. She always wants to help. I heartily recommend this day care!

I am very lucky to have found Ney Street Family DayCare! My son is the most precious person to me and I wanted to find a safe and LOVING daycare for him. After calling several facilities, I wasnt quite comfortable. Thank goodness I remembered that my friend who also had a son, was using a daycare.
My friend described Cecilia and her helper as very loving women. She also described how knowledgeable they are in child development and that they create a fun and natural learning environment. She also described that Spanish is mainly spoken and that cook very healthy hispanic food.
After my friend described all of the above, I was pretty much sold. My friend then concluded that she 100% trusts Cecilia and her family. This says the world coming from my friend who is as protective of her son like I am.
I called Cecilia within a few minutes and I knew this was going to work out. By the second day of my son attending Ney St Family Daycare, I could. tell my son was happy to be there.

We love Cecilia Chavez and her family and helper Evelyn at Ney Street Family Day Care. They are just such kind and affectionate and wise people. They are experienced and calm and confident and the kids are just visibly happy and at home there. Even the littlest ones really seem to feel part of the community. They do art and story time and singing and walks and Cecilia cooks good food for them. They have a nice sized playroom and a pleasant outdoor space with a little play structure and garden.
It is conveniently located at Ney and Congdon, a couple of blocks from Mission Street, just south of Bernal Heights and Glen Park.
I visited several family day cares and researched many more, but I really got the best feeling about this place, and my son loves it. Cecilia is just not online or connected to ways to advertise, so she has openings and is very reasonably priced. I happened to find her through another parents’ post on the Glen Park parents listserv from a couple of years back.
Cecilia is so loving and sweet with both the smallest infants and with older toddlers. I believe she is flexible on part-​time vs. full time and also offers evening care for those who are interested.
