The Garden of Virtues558

We started our sweet Julia with Natalie and Gana when she was 6 months old. Four months later and we feel so lucky that she gets to spend her weekdays at Garden of Virtues. They are very caring, nurturing, organized and thoughtful. The children spend time outside, are well fed and very well cared for every day. Music day, a lot of interactivity, toys, games and big smiles on all the faces! These wonderful people know how to take good care of children and we are so grateful.

This family daycare is the answer to everything you would want. Natalie and Gana are patient and loving and have taken wonderful care of our 1 year old son. They are very conscious of stimulating him appropriately and encourage him to play and safely experience his environment. Everyday- he spends time outside, naps well and eats a full meal. Once a week, they have a music teacher and now he claps his hands and dances to the beat!!!!! It's always a challenge to get him to go home. Dropping him off in the morning is never a problem, he happily goes to Gana. I feel very fortunate to have found this daycare.

This is a wonderful environment for kids. It's homey and warm with an open and safe deck for outdoor play. We love that our son gets a lot of attention and also gets a lot of interaction with kids. Ghana and Natalie are very knowledgeble about children and are so loving to our son. It's so nice to take your child to people that you can give your complete confidence. The kids at this daycare are sweet and well-behaved and genuinely seem happy, which, we think, says it all.

Natalie and Gana have been taking such good care of our son since he was 15months old (he is now 21/2). We love the the fact that this is a small, home daycare so our son gets lots of attention and affection in a home-like setting. The food they provide is always healthy and abundant; Natalie and Gana always make sure our son gets a well-rounded meal everyday. There is a huge, gated deck in the back where the kids have outdoor time everyday (weather permits). Thanks to Natalie and Gana my son was party trained in two weeks because of their patience and preserverance. In short, we couldn't be happier that our son is being cared for at such a loving and nurturing place.

Our daughter has done so well at this wonderful family daycare. Natalie and Gana are so genuine in their care for the children and focus on keeping the kids healthy, happy and active. You will not find a better facility - clean, bright and spacious with a wonderful private deck. We definitely recommend the Garden of Virtues!

Natalie & Ghana take good care of my daughter, and I recommend them highly. They made sure she got enough sleep when she was younger, helped her take medicine when needed, and always give her lots of love and affection. Now that she's older, they are encouraging physical activity, music time and "art" (playdough, coloring and painting) time. Leaving my daughter everyday is tough, but it's made easier by their caring attitudes.

My husband and I feel so lucky to have found Natalie and Gana's place. It has so many good points, it's hard to enumerate them. The caregivers' love for the kids is apparent, and it is definitely mutual. The children are all well adjusted--they get along, play together, and share easily. Our son loves going there every day and seeing his friends. Also, once a child is on solid food Natalie and Gana provide everything, even milk (organic and often from Straus Family Creamery!). They provide cereals and fruit in the morning and make the well-rounded midday meals from scratch! Natalie, Gana, Tania, and Marina (the two other caregivers) also provide good educational foundations--this is very important to them. Our son has acquired language like crazy and he could count to 10 before he turned 2. But they make it fun! They also do music classes and that has really showed lately in his interest in playing his toy piano and singing. In short, I've loved seeing our son grow in this place (he started when he was 7 months old and is now 2) and we feel good every day about the choice we made in care for him.

Natalie and Gana are great childcare providers with 18 years of experience. The children learn and play in a clean, safe and nurturing environment. The facility is very secure (private entrance with a security camera at the gate) and has a huge backyard patio for outside play. I love the fact that the daycare is small so each child gets the individual attention and affection they need. Most importantly, my daughter looks forward to going there each morning. The huge smile on her face when she is greeted by Gana, Natalie and all the other children is the best proof that this is a wonderful place.
