Hello, and welcome to My Little Angels daycare of 20 years, where we teach a comprehensive curriculum. Our program offers a true early childhood education environment where our students learn numbers, colors, shapes, sing songs, enjoy creating crafts, and story time. Our facility is bright with students’ family pictures and artwork hanging on the walls. There are many toys and activity sets for infants and toddlers. There is a circle time center and tons of learning curriculum posted. Our space feels like a preschool classroom or learning center, and we use flashcards, posters, books, and more to ensure children are learning. I take pride in having a wonderful childcare space with a kitchen, play area, many arts, and crafts, as well as a spare guest room for napping. Personal Development: I strongly believe in teaching manners and how to be good friends. My goal is to send them off to kindergarten, socially responsible and emotionally mature when they become school aged. I also have a beautiful and very friendly Golden Retriever! COVID Safety: My COVID procedures include using sanitizer spray and wipes throughout the day and washing hands before and after snacks and lunch. I clean my diaper station and other surfaces with bleach and water.

Spring Knolls embraces a play-based learning philosophy in a cooperative community while focusing on the &quot;whole child.&quot; Through the power of play, our experienced and dedicated staff help children thrive in the five developmental domains: social, language, cognitive, fine motor, and gross motor skills. Located in downtown Silver Spring, Spring Knolls is for ages 2 through pre-K that offers half-day (9am-12pm), full-day (9am-3pm), and beginning in fall 2023, extended day options (9am-5:30pm). Play-based learning is, essentially, to learn while at play. Whether it is building with blocks or playing with plastic animals in the sand table, the child solves problems and learn new skills while doing something they enjoy. The child directs the learning experiences based on their innate curiosity, furthering their understanding of the world and people around them. A cooperative community means that parents are directly involved with the administration of the school. All parents help in the school operations, from marketing to facilities upkeep.

The Montessori School of Washington (MSOW) is a small, nurturing environment for children aged two to six. Its curriculum is based on Dr. Maria Montessori's philosophy. MSOW aims to introduce children to the joy of learning at an early age and assists the child in creating an inner order. This self-discipline becomes the basis of freedom, within a framework, for children to learn through their senses according to their growth timetable and level of interest. By achieving continuous success in learning experiences, the child will develop self-confidence and competence, which will carry into maturity. When children acquire self-mastery and self-respect, they then respect others. TUITION ASSISTANCE INFORMATION - MSOW is committed to broadening access for families who might otherwise not be able to afford a high-quality Montessori preschool experience. For this reason, MSOW pledges to set aside at least 25% of all open slots for families eligible for the subsidized childcare/voucher program. MSOW is listed in the My Child Care DC directory under our business name, “The Montessori School of Washington.” To support our military families, we continue to receive fee assistance payments from Child Care Aware and the Military Child Care in Your Neighborhood (MCCYN)

Maggie C. says "I'm happy to recommend MSOW. My child attended school there from age 2-5 and we had a great experience. The school is warm, loving and focused on the...
