If you are looking for an experienced, licensed, loving, highly qualified, affordable, former elementary instructor to be your daycare provider, STOP! Your search is over! I stumbled upon Janna when searching Care while my current provider was on maternity and so happy I called! She was immediately inviting into her home, knowledgeable about what our daughter's age group and special needs, and so very creative with her lessons and projects. My daughter is almost 2 and has learned so much from Janna in the short year she has been with Janna's Family Child Care. Janna is responsive to emails during the day as well as understanding when things pop up and routines are out of sync. She sends out daily communication, helpful reminders, and notes the upcoming month's events through a monthly newsletter. My husband, also a high school instructor, loves her curriculum based teaching and hands on love she receives. I enjoy the creative aspects Janna brings to her children's weekly routine and of course the love and care she gives to our daughter during the work week. Janna is exceptional and certainly a top daycare provider in the city!

We would HIGHLY recommend Janna's Family Child Care. She runs a cirriculumn based daycare and as a former elementary teacher, she's uniquely equipped to understand the learning milestones children in her care should be meeting to prepare them for school.

She is extremely easy to work with and very responsive by either phone, text or email. She happily answers any questions you have about your childs day and development. She's very organized and each day has a structured schedule with a mix of learning and play.

She sends out a monthly newsletter which describes the lessons for the month, which also gets sent to our parents (our choice), so they can be kept in the loop. They love it.

Janna's also a wondering photographer, and as an extra bonus, we get some candid photo's of our daughter!

We can't say enough about the difference we see in our daughter in the time she's been with Janna. We see incredible growth both mentally and emotionally.

We were initally drawn to Janna because she has a degree in eductaion, was a former teacher and seemed very "on top of things". It was important to us for our daughter to be in a home daycare enviroment, have a cirrriculmn based program and have a low child ratio. Janna met all these criteria and much more.

This recommendation does come with some experience. We visited over 20 daycare providers (mostly inhome) before we found Janna. It was obviously from the beginning, this was the right place for our daughter.

We'll be staying with Janna for all the reasons above, but most importantly, because our daughter is thriving and very happy at Janna's Family Child Care.
