We were so blessed to find Stephanie as our home daycare provider for our son. We needed daycare when he was only 4 months old and were terrified that nobody would be able to watch him so that I could go back to work. Well, after finding Caring Corner on Care.com, we contacted Stephanie who met with us only a few days later and she was enthusiastic about taking him in. Here we are, months later, and she has been wonderful. She is very flexible and professional and it is clear that the children all feel like this home daycare is their second home. I can't recommend Stephanie enough.

I highly recommend Stephanie! I sent my son here since he was 6 months - 3 years, my daughter from 3 months - 1.5 years, and I would have continued to, but we moved and I lost my job. My kids always enjoyed being there, were happy and well-cared for. She kept the rooms organized and clean, and was always flexible. Highly recommend, and affordable! I'm writing this review so that other people can benefit from her great care. I was lucky to find her on care.com myself.

Stephanie moved from a commercial day-care setting to at-home service with our first son. When we sent him to Caring Corner as parents who where apprehensive to leave him in anyone else's care, we were expecting to get a good baby sitter. Instead, we got so much more than we imagined in Stephanie. She took the time to not only keep him safe and fed (which was expected), but also spent a lot of time teaching him developmentally appropriate skills and information (which was a wonderful surprise for me, although I guess it shouldn't have been, given her background). He started as an infant and grew into a toddler in her care. We were more than happy to send our daughter to Stephanie when the time came.

I won't gush about her child-care skills, as I concur with everything that Christina V says, and she is much more eloquent than I am. I do want to add on that as a new mom, Stephanie was always there for me as a source of information and support at every developmental stage. I could always ask for advice and know that I'm getting quality answers, based not only on her own children, but also her background, her obvious care for the other kids in her service, and her continual joy in her line of work. Even though my children have not been in her care for over a year now, I still keep in contact with her and always find her willing to help.

It was a sad day when we moved out of state and said goodbye at the door for the last time. For months afterward, my children would ask when they were going to see Stephanie again. To me, that is a very powerful indicator of exactly how great her service is. If we had not moved, they would still be going to her every day.

Wow!!! I really can't say enough great things about Caring Corner. This home daycare/preschool has become like an extended family to us. There is no doubt our kids are in good hands while they are there. Miss Stephanie plans activities for each day that are challenging, engaging, and fun. Some of my kids' FAVORITES are pajama day, Dr. Seuss day, working with the color flashcards, dress-up time, instrument time, and singing. You will never have to worry that your kids are just watching TV all day.

As parents, we are regularly consulted and kept up to date with progress. She works WITH parents, not against them to work through the various stages, whether it is introducing solid foods, potty training, manners, etc. You will see through her interactions with the kids, how caring she is and how quickly kids bond with her. They run down the sidewalk to get inside!! When Miss Stephanie found out that we had visited the Smithsonian Space Museum over the weekend, she did an art project where the kids made rockets and they talked about outer space. This is just an example of how she finds teaching opportunities and helps reinforce learning.

We have referred several of our friends there, and everyone loves it. Caring Corner is the ideal family daycare -- the perfect combination of social interaction with other kids and individual attention. 5+++ stars!!
