I have used this provider for more than 6 months
I found this daycare after being recommended by mutual friends and neighbors to go to Lala's! After touring and asking multiple questions we knew this was the right fit for our family. We really love the community we built at the daycare and the excellent communication we have with Lala about our child's day. Like the majority of us at
Lala's came through word of mouth and excellent reviews. They aren't just a home daycare but truly an early childhood care home that actually loves our children like their own. Because of their reputation and positive atmosphere, we too will be recommending them! :).
We have had our children here for about three years and we have recommended 3 other families who are now at daycare. It has been a beautiful time with this daycare. They send updates every day, there is always an educational activity, when weather permitting they go out to the park/walk/sidewalk/back yard/take a ride on their signature red buggy. It is truly amazing to have a daycare where they work with us for our kids to learn to play with each other, color, preschool basics before their time, and love them as their own. We have a wonderful community with mostly all the parents-and our children get along with others. If there is ever a problem they are always communicative and let us know to correct at home as well. We truly recommend.
My child has special needs and this daycare has been so incredibly kind and accommodating. I leave my child in the care of people who have patience, and want to be there. Other than my family, I can leave to work in peace knowing they are fed healthy food, in loving arms, and in an inclusive learning environment. The peace of mind and gratitude we have is inmensurable. They don’t market as a daycare who have special needs children but that’s because their work speaks for itself. We are moving but we highly recommend and are recommending to our friends and neighbors. The provider and staff care and are upfront with the tasks, duties, what we can do to do to help with our child and it is more than satisfactory for us. Thank you for all you do.
We are very grateful and happy with our daycare. After months of staying on a waitlist, we got our spot in. Couldn’t be happier with the progress in their speaking, and interaction with others. We absolutely love seeing how they are gentle and able to care for others especially younger ones which is very indicative to the treatment they receive at daycare. They eat healthier at daycare than at home YIKES!! Very grateful.
Have been at daycare for more than 6 months. I love receiving photos and videos every week on messages. The activities they do each week is absolutely great: park, racing, arts and crafts, learning songs. That is exactly what we want for our child to experience before eventually going to big school. I love that they have organic, real food to eat, just as they are at home. (Ask to see what their lunch looks like!) just the fact that they are able to grow up with kids of all ages is very wholesome.
I used this daycare for several years. The owner is conscientious and can be very caring, but is also vindictive. Quality of meals and daily experiences varied. The schedule was sometimes unclear, with unannounced closures. Now that my children are more grown, they sometimes get very serious and tell me about how scared and hurt they were when their ears were pulled or water was sprayed in their faces to punish them. As a family who doesn’t do corporal punishment, this has been heartbreaking to hear. We wish we had left sooner.
I have toured this provider's facility, but have not used its services
Absolutely lovely and the cleanest home daycare. I’m on the waiting list but I definitely hope to get a spot in for my son. The meals looked great, the toys, the atmosphere very at home. I really appreciate how the owner is very health conscious about who she lets in to the daycare since the pandemic. Lala if you’re reading this! I hope I can get a spot!
I cannot complain about this daycare at all. They provide my children with fresh home cooked meals, amazing art work and home schooled education. I will always be eternally grateful for the staff’s efforts. The parents in general can be very cliquey but they never leave because Lala’s house is always the best choice.
Lovely staff, incredible work ethic. Make my children feel at home and myself comfortable everyday. There are 2 moms that drive me crazy with their nosiness and cliqueness but the staff rises above it and never lets anyone feel tension. The home is extremely clean and they always go above and beyond to provide a wholesome education for my kids.
