We’ve had a really positive experience with this in-home daycare. Ewa is very nice, thoughtful, and truly cares about the children.
She is also very understanding and flexible with scheduling, which has been extremely helpful for our family since I work too much. It gives me peace of mind knowing my girl is in a caring and supportive environment.
My girl is always happy to go and comes home smiling. I’ve noticed improvements in social skills, eating habits, and overall development since starting here. One thing I really appreciate is that she makes delicious homemade food, and my child enjoys the meals every day.
It’s clear the children are well taken care of and given attention throughout the day. I would definitely recommend this daycare to any parents looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and accommodating.

Ewa is a phenomenal daycare provider! My daughter attends Ewa’s daycare and she provides a caring, educational, safe environment for kids. My daughter loves going to Ewa’s and letting her creative side show with all of the crafts Ewa has for the kids! Not only does she provide a loving environment with a focus on teaching new topics for children, but she provides delicious home cooked meals that my daughter loves. I recommend Ewa wholeheartedly!

We feel so lucky to have found this home daycare. My son has been attending and absolutely loves it. Ewa the provider is kind, patient, and truly cares about the kids. The space is clean, organized, and full of engaging activities.

I’ve seen such positive changes in my son—he’s more social, confident, and happy. It gives me peace of mind knowing he is in such a loving and safe environment every day. I would highly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for quality care.

Ewa has been absolutely amazing for our twin boys since they started with her at age two and are now five! She’s turned every day into an adventure in a space that’s not only fun but super safe and caring. When it came to potty training, Ewa was a superstar—guiding them from diapers to fully potty-trained with such patience and positivity. It really made a difference, and I would not have been able to do so many milestones without her help!

Also, we’ve noticed they’re way healthier than many of their peers in more traditional daycare settings. Ewa treats all the kids as if they were her own, always giving us detailed updates and sharing their daily highlights. Her genuine love and dedication are so apparent, and it’s comforting to see how much she cares. Thanks so much, Ewa, for all the love and guidance you’ve given our boys during these crucial years!

We are with Miss Ewa for over 2 years now and can not be more grateful and happy with her daycare. Our daughter loves Ewa who is caring and trusting person.
I love her daily routine. I love how she keeps the kids busy every day with different projects plus lots of outdoor activities.
Thanks to Ewa our daughter is ready for kindergarten ( she can count, she knows the letters and sounds. She can read a bit).
She provides healthy and delicious meals every day.
I highly recommend Ewa and her daycare
We are going to miss her ????????????

As a father of two young, energetic kids – a spirited almost five-year-old girl and her curious two-and-a-half-year-old brother – finding the right day care is not just about convenience; it's about trust, safety, and an environment where our children can grow and flourish. In Ewa's daycare, we've discovered a hidden gem that ticks all the boxes and then some.

Ewa's energy and passion for childcare are infectious from the moment you step into her home. She crafts a stimulating environment filled with appropriate toys and activities tailored to each child's interests and developmental stage. Our daughter is engaged in educational games, preparing her for kindergarten, while our son explores under Ewa's watchful eye (yeah, he needs that).

Safety is paramount, and Ewa ensures a secure space, giving us peace of mind. What sets Ewa apart is her genuine love for the children.

In conclusion, Ewa's daycare is more than just a place for our children – it's a second home where they feel loved and encouraged. We wholeheartedly recommend Ewa to any parent seeking quality childcare.

What a difference! In today's world it is hard to find a caregiver who understands what the most important activities for a 2-6yo are. Both of my children were watched by Ewa. I moved my son from a well know daycare since I felt he was not getting enough outdoor physical activity there and at Ewa's he was getting exactly that. Furthermore, Ewa has very good approach to children, knows how to engage them in interesting activities. She treats all children equally and gives them individual attention. This is not your typical daycare place, but a loving and nurturing home where children grow in every direction. Thank you kindly for all you have done for my family. I highly recommend Ewa!

I was looking for afternoon care for our twins their first year of preschool. Ewa had just opened her in home daycare and we went to meet her and I knew after that visit that she would take exceptional care of our children. She definitely exceeded our expectations by far. She provides a wonderful environment where they learn, play with other children and develop skills to prepare them for Kindergarten. This is our last week with Ewa and it is very bitter sweet. While we are excited for our twins to start kindergarten, they are going to miss the fun days that they have experienced over the last year and a half at Ms. Ewa’s.

Ewa provides a caring and friendly environment which makes us feel safe and comfortable leaving my daughter there.
She has a well structured system and a daily routine so she is actually teaching kids and not just "watching" them. She also provides them with healthy meals which makes an even grater value.
We have had nothing but great experiences, she is attentive and professional while providing a loving environment kids thrive on.
