Excellent facility with great staff. Our son enjoyed going to Creative Kids Daycare Center for a year and a half before we moved him to a montessori school.

Mrs. Sadia and Mrs. Joji have taken care of my son for more than 2 years now. My son loves going to daycare. The teachers have given him a lot of care and affection. We love this daycare and we are glad to have sent my son here.

My 3 year old and 1 year old attended Sadia's daycare for a year. They both loved being there. Sadia and her staff are incredibly kind, caring and attentive -- you can rest assured that they are in good hands. Every day they have fun activities arranged for the children, including arts & crafts, drawing, story time, songs, playtime, etc... The daycare also has a beautiful large fenced in outdoor area with lots of kid-friendly equipment to play with.
Sadia and her staff have truly created a loving environment where the children thrive, play, and learn. I highly recommend Creative Kids Daycare!

This comment is in reply to Abigail W's post. My son and daughter attend Creative Kids. My son started when he was 5 months and is now a rising 1st grader who attends before and after school. My daughter is now 15 months and started with Sadia when she was 5 months. The center generally has plenty of available parking in the driveway. At times, 3 parent's cars fit during drop-off and/or pick-up. When the drive way is full, I will either wait a minute or 2 for someone to leave or I occasionally park on the street in front of the house. It is a quiet road and I am very careful about loading my children. The house is on a curve, but generally parents park further down. Sadia and her husband have monitored other cars parking in front and have found another parking place for a family member's car. The center's employees may also park in the street, but try to keep their cars away from the drop-off/pick-up area. I have never had an issue or concern about parking at Creative Kids.

It is very dangerous to park and pick up kids, you can't see if another car if coming since the house is on a corner. There is always a Toyota corolla parked at the corner and it makes it much dangerous, We asked the owners of the daycare to not park the car there but nothing has changed. So I really can't recommend this place until they resolve the security issue when they have a car parked at the curve . I will follow up on this review.

Sadia and Joji have been watching my baby girl since she was 5 months old(she is now 14 months.)
We cannot thank them enough for what they have done for Molly. She is a happy one-year-old and I am so calm knowing that she is in such good hands. I love the reports we get emailed to us at the end of the day. Seeing Molly's stats makes me feel like I didn't miss too much.
I love this daycare. The teachers are so loving!!!

Our daughter has been attending Creative Kids Daycare since she was 3.5 months old. She's our first, and I spent countless hours touring daycares in the area during my pregnancy. About 3 months before she was born, I panicked. We had reserved a spot at a daycare center, and all of the sudden, it felt completely wrong. I needed something more nurturing. That's when I found Sadia. I called my husband after first meeting her and said I'd found the right care for our daughter. It's been the same ever since. My daughter loves Sadia, Javeria and the staff as if they were family. She is beaming when I drop her off each morning and a bubbly, happy baby when I pick her up in the afternoon. I was in awe when I picked her up this week, and learned she had been finger painting and working with numbers, in addition to tummy time and reading. She's only six months old! I can go to work each day and focus on my job, because I know she is learning so much, and most importantly to me, is truly loved. I feel blessed every day to have Sadia and her staff - they've helped my daughter absolutely thrive and we couldn't be happier.

Our older son has been at Creative Kids since he was 12 weeks old (almost three years now), and our younger son has been there since he was 10 weeks old. Because of Creative Kids, we've never had to worry about the most fundamental issues: Our sons' safety and whether their being well cared for. From day one, Sadia has made us feel like family. She and her team have been as invested in our sons' development, health, and happiness as we are. It seems trite to say they love them as if they are their own, but it's the truth. Our boys are thriving, and its largely due to the care they receive from Sadia and her team. Creative Kids provides a stimulating and supportive environment for both babies and toddlers. As the children in her care have grown, Sadia has proactively advanced her curriculum to give them new challenges and teach them new skills (colors, letters, numbers, matching, counting -- I could go on and on). My husband and I are so thankful we found Sadia and Creative Kids, and we cannot thank them enough for all they have done for us and our boys.

My daughter started attending Creative Kids at the age of 3 months and is going on 3 years now. My wife and I could not be happier with our experience. It is such a relief knowing how much Sadia, Javeria, and their staff care and love our daughter. It's been great to see how much she has grown in 3 years not just from an academic standpoint but also from a socializing aspect.
They say it takes a village to raise a child and I truly believe that. My wife and I both work full-time, often times long hours, and there were weeks she probably spent more time with Creative Kids than with us. I have come to realize that the fun, smart, brave little girl I am so in love with is just as much a reflection of Sadia, Javeria, and her staff as she is of me and my wife. They have taught her so many things: how to share, how to care for others, the alphabet, numbers, potty-training. I could go on. And they taught her all of those things in an environment that was loving and like-home. To say they treated her like one of your own is an understatement. She has thrived under their love. I cannot thank them enough.

Our daughter Sloane currently attends daycare at Creative Kids. We did a lot of research and site visits to other daycares when we were looking- nothing seemed to fit until we found Creative Kids. We are extremely impressed with the care we have received. We honestly feel so lucky to have found Sadia and her team- we talk about it all the time. Sadia and everyone on staff treats and loves our daughter as if she was their own. It feels like we are leaving our daughter with family.
To give a specific example, our daughter had severe acid reflux from the time she was born until just a few months ago. It was really difficult because she would cry a lot and could not be laid on her back for 30-40 minutes after each feeding. She would also wake up from naps early (usually after just 30 minutes) . Sadia and JJ were so loving and wonderful throughout the entire thing- almost as concerned as Iwe were about the pain our daughter was feeling. I never doubted that they were giving her the extra care and attention she needed.

Our 13-month-old son has been going to Sadia's house for daycare for four months now and we have found his experience to be safe, happy and loving. He's always excited to be dropped off and still smiling when we pick him up 9 hours later. Sadia and her assistant clearly love our son like their own. They cook the kids delicious and healthy food, which is especially important to us. Sadia's home environment is much more comfortable and personal than the industrial daycares. We also appreciate her flexibility with our schedules, which is difficult to find. We absolutely recommend Sadia as a daycare provider.

My wife and I have relied on Sadia and Creative Kids for all three of our children over the past seven years, and we have the utmost respect and gratitude for Sadia and the love, nurturing, and developmental education she provides for the children in her care. I cannot imagine a better experience for our children, and it is clear they feel great affection for Sadia and their other caregivers at Creative Kids.

Sadia and Creative Kids is a wonderful establishment that has provided a loving, safe, and educational environment for all three of our children. We interviewed many, many providers in our search for quality day care. Sadia stands head and shoulders above the rest. She provides a structured day of age-appropriate activities, outside and inside time, nutritious meals, and lots of love. She reads to the children regularly and it shows in their language development and interest in reading. As a mom of an accomplished college student and an early childhood educator, she understands the needs of children AND parents. She has helped us identify the needs of each of our children and has worked with us to help them as they transitioned from infancy to toddlerhood and beyond. We always know that our children are in good hands when we take them to Sadia. Often, they don't want to leave! We have been so thankful to have Creative Kids in our lives.

We interviewed many in-home providers and visited several institutional centers before choosing Sadia and Creative Kids to care for our newborn son in 2008. Philip attended Creative Kids from 3 months until age 3 where he was loved like a family member and he thrived. Unlike my friends' kids, Philip didn't bring home colds and sniffly noses from daycare. When he was little I brought breast milk in bottles, and then Sadia worked with us to transition to rice cereal, milk, and then solid food. As a first time Mom, the support and guidance from Creative Kids felt more like a partnership with the same goal being my son's health and happiness.
