We had our 2 year old son at Playful Discoveries for a little more than a year. Concisely put, the best environment that we could possibly have had for our child. We had to move because we moved residences, and my son remembers Tatiana and Baba to this day almost on a daily basis, and we as parents miss that special care that he was afforded at Playful Discoveries. It is a very clean and safe place, with every aspect of a child's all-round growth taken care of. We would very strongly recommend Tatiana's care for any parent looking for a place for their child.

My son (almost 3) has been at Playful Discoveries Daycare for a year. This daycare, conveniently located in Bethesda, is very friendly and safe home environment. Ever since my son joined this daycare, he has been extremely happy and have made huge progress in his communication skills. His everyday environment promoted and challenged his learning capabilities and his creativity. He has been constantly playing and learning and he was always fed with healthy meals and snacks.
I strongly recommend this nourishing environment with a highly caring, responsible and gifted care giver,Tatiana. We are sadly leaving Bethesda because of Work relocation and we will surely miss everyone at Playful Discoveries.

We are so happy with Playful Discoveries. Our 1- and 3-year old have been attending Playful Discoveries for about a year now. All of the caretakers are very engaging with the children, and we always feel completely comfortable leaving our kids in their care. We are getting very positive feedback from our kids as well. The food is fantastic: very healthy, organic, home-made food. The play areas are full of light with quality toys. Our kids also enjoy playing in the fenced backyard. We are very happy with Tatiana, the owner. She is a great caretaker and teacher. She was very helpful in potty training our son, and she gives great feedback on how the kids are doing. The art projects she does with the kids are wonderful. We have experience with two other home daycares, and this is by far the best one around. We highly recommend it.

My son has been attending the Playful Discoveries daycare for about half a year now and I am very pleased with it. The place is very clean, safe, and offers a variety of fun activities/toys. My son has learned and matured so much. Not only he learned letters, numbers, expanded his vocabulary in both English and Russian, but has learned to share, take turns (in progress:)),and play with others. Children play outside a lot, wich is very important for me. My son eats more variety of healthy foods now thanks to freshly cooked home meals and fresh fruits and vegetables kids are offered daily. Every day, when I come to take him home,he wants to stay longer and play with his friends. I couldn't find a better place to take care of my three year old. Tatiana (the owner and teacher)is loving, patient, and has a talent for teaching. I strongly recommend it to any parent searching for a safe, caring, and nurturing environment for their child.
