Early Discoveries Learning Home

My 3 years old son has been going to Early Discoveries for almost a year now. My son loves going there. The environment is very loving and nurturing, so we feel very safe leaving our little one in their hands. The daycare is very clean and well maintained and it has a very nice area to play with lots of developmental activities throughout the day. The grandmother is very sweet and it feels like my son is saying with his own grandmother.
Liz and her family are very nurturing and caring — they care about things like other my son ate properly today. I would highly recommend this day care.

I could not say more positive things about Early Discoveries. We feel very privileged to have found such a wonderful Day Care for our son. Andrea and her staff are incredibly warm and professional, the home is extremely clean, the program is well structured and effective, and it is obvious the staff love the children as if they were their own. My son is incredibly happy at Early Discoveries.
When he started nearly a year ago at the age of 18 months, he had a fairly low vocabulary and didn’t show basic social skills. He was incredibly shy and chose to communicate via pointing or informal verbal cues. Now he has a massive vocabulary, in Spanish and English, can count fluently in 4 languages, and is a pro at sharing, displaying manners, and following directions. He loves to do puzzles, read books, and play «pretend» cooking. Early Discoveries teaches the children through play-​based learning, and it has been healthy, engaging, and effective for my son’s development.
Just recently I gave birth to another little boy, and my older son is so incredibly patient, kind, and caring towards his brother. I know his behavior towards his little brother is a direct influence of his learning at Early Discoveries. Baby brother will be starting Day Care at Early Discoveries in January, and we are thrilled they will be together.
We couldn’t be more pleased with Early Discoveries and highly recommend it to any family needing a Day Care for their infant or toddler.

Our daughter has been going to Early Discoveries since she was 9 months old and it has been a blessing for all of us. As working parents, we wanted to find a place where we knew our daughter would be well taken care of and get to learn both Spanish and English. Early Discoveries met all of our expectations and more. Liz Andrea, Liz Esther and their mother Mirella have taken great care of our daughter. The day care is clean, bright and cheerful. They make healthy home cooked meals for the kids and do an amazing job nurturing their development. It is so obvious they genuinely care for all the kids and our daughter is extremely happy going there during the week. I highly recommend this daycare.

I can’t say enough positive things about Liz and her family! This lovely family has been taking care of my son since he was 4 months old (he is a year old now) and I was fortunate enough to have found them! My son loves Mireya (the grandmother who is one of the caregivers) that he wanted to stay with her one day last week instead of coming home with me! If there is anyone I don’t mind Aaron wanting more than Mommy, it’s definitely Mireya — it shows how comfortable and happy he is there! I am in management consulting so my hours can get hectic oftentimes. This daycare has been so flexible with my busy schedule by allowing me to drop off my son early and pick him up late at times. I trust Liz and her family so much that I can feel at ease with my son’s care and can focus on work at work. I don’t know what I would do without them… thank you all so much for all you do for my little boy!

Looking for daycare is a painstaking process, so I was at my wit’s end when I came across Early Discoveries. After visiting many disturbingly dingy home-​care locations where I was having a hard time understanding how someone would give these people a license, I decided to start checking out preschool-​type locations. So when I drove up to the Early Discoveries home I was disappointed to see that it was a house, as the pictures online made it look more like a preschool. But I figured I’d go in anyway. And I’m so glad that I did!
While a family does live there, they’ve adapted their home so that the entire back portion is dedicated to the children. The adorable set up is like a little school, yet because it’s a family-​run business (Andrea, her sister Esther and their mother being the primary caretakers), it has the cozy feeling you look for in a home-​care setting. On that first day we checked the place out and I got to see how Andrea interacted with my daughter I was sold.
All three women are sweet and patient and loving to the children. There seems to be plenty to do/​play with, they listen to music in both English and Spanish, they teach the kids Spanish, they don’t watch TV, the place is very clean (one of the key things I look for) and most importantly, the kids always appear happy. I know my daughter loved it there. She’d hardly say goodbye to us when we dropped her off and never wanted to leave when we came to pick her up. That’s the sign off a good daycare in my opinion! Also, they would often give my daughter big hugs and kisses goodbye when we came to pick her up, which I thought was cute. I like the idea of her bonding with adults other than us :)
Unfortunately we lost our spot when I took her out over the summer (I don’t work summers), but I’m keeping my fingers crossed that another spot opens up soon! (I almost didn’t want to write this review because I don’t want someone else’s kid to take that spot! ;) But Early Discoveries is great. It definitely deserves a good review!

I can not say enough positive things about Early Discoveries! Our daughter has been attending day care there for seven months now.
As a working mother, I wanted to make sure that six our month old was in good hands. We immediately felt comfortable with Andrea. You could tell that she genuinely has passion for teaching children. We really wanted to make sure that our little one had a safe, nurturing home away from home. She showed us the schedule of how our daughter’s day would unfold. I felt confident that she would learn things we couldn’t teach her at home — interaction with other children, even Spanish!
Their home is always clean and is filled with bright colorful decorations to appeal to the children. They make fresh food for the children, which impressed me immensely. A great program for development is in place — no matter what the age of the child. Andrea sends pictures and updates of any milestones– so you don’t miss them because you have to work.
They are friendly, thoughtful, and care for our child as if she belongs to them. I have recommended them to friends looking for wonderful day care.

My son has been going to Early Discoveries for nearly three months, since he was four and a half months old, and I have many, many good things to say about them. They care well for my son, they know every development he makes, they train him with his motor skills, and he has been going smoothly from milestone to milestone under their great care!
They are a sister concern of Eagle’s Nest daycare in Sunnyvale, and we were referred to them by a friend. They have started recently, but Andrea and her family had been helping at Eagle’s Nest for a while. Andrea, her sister Esther and their mom are the primary caregivers, and my son loves all of them, as I can see from his wide smile every morning when he sees them.
Their home is super clean, every time I go. They seem to be really efficient with their meals as well. They have a good system of giving me a record of each day’s activity and they bring up any concerns immediately. They have been so good at getting my son to nap regularly, and in starting solid food as well. They took the time and trouble to record his progress there with photographs and made me a book of his photographs for Christmas!
The other kids in the daycare seem very happy every time I go, and the toddlers seem always entertained, either dancing, playing or tumbling– seems to be great fun.
We have been very happy with Early Discoveries and have come to rely on them for a great home away from home for our child.
