My daughter started at KiddyUp when she was about 1 and 1/2 years old. Ms Sherri is not just a day care provider, but loves each one of her kids like they are her own. Working for the school system and having off summer breaks and holidays, my daughter would still wake up every morning asking "Are we going to Ms Sherri's today?" and have a sad expression when it wasn't a day that we were going. She will send pictures ans updates throughout the day and is very flexible with scheduling changes. Would definitely recommend KiddyUp and Ms Sherri!

Our family cannot say enough amazing things about Sheri and Kiddyup Daycare. A little over a year ago we came across Kiddyup on care.com after a bad experience at a daycare facility our little guy was previously at. From the moment that we walked into Sheri's home, we were family. They have become a big part of our family. Sheri is so loving, patient, kind, reliable, and holds such a special place in our hearts. She is always willing to help at the drop of a hat and accommodate your needs. We could never thank her enough for loving and caring for our little guy everyday while he is in her care. Sheri and her family are moving to Nokesville this summer which is a little out of our way but we will continue to make the drive each day so that he can continue to be in her care. Our family would HIGHLY recommend Kiddyup Daycare!!!

I cannot day enough about Sheri Lorenz and KiddyUp DayCare! Being a first time mom I didn't want to leave her to just anyone. I wanted a daycare family to love her and protect her as much we do. I found this in kiddyUp - Sheri truly goes above and beyond to help ease the transition from maternity leave to back to work with pictures, videos, day recaps to helping you sort through this thing called motherhood - as she is a mom to 4 amazing children herself! If you have any thoughts of "is this the right fit" "will they protect her/him as their own" "will they do everything that I do at home for my lo" the answer is YES! I would not change the last 2 years for anything!

Ms. Sheri at Kiddyup literally changed our lives. Our kids had never had success with daycare and they immediately loved going to "Ms. Sherri's". We knew that she was taking care of them like family - which is what she became to us. If you're hesitant about dropping your kids off at a traditional daycare, know that this is anything but "daycare". It's a home with love, learning, and respect. You are literally part of the family when Ms. Sheri takes care of your kids! You know you made the right decision on childcare when you tell your 1 and 3 year old, "It's time to go to Ms. Sherri's" and EVERY time they smile wide and yell 'Yaaaaaay!"

KiddyUp Daycare was recommended to me by a co-worker who had known Mrs. Sheri for 10+ years and sent both of her own daughters to this daycare. References from another fellow nurse and colleague that I trusted meant a lot to me. I contacted KiddyUp and Mrs. Sheri spoke to me at length. At the time, she had no openings but she told me EVERYTHING to look for when interviewing daycare centers and even offered to be available should I have any questions- she did all of this despite not being able to take my son under care at that time. My first impression was, "Wow. This woman is passionate about what she does, and she really cares about children." My husband and I went on to interview other care providers, but nothing was working out. We got a call back from Mrs. Sheri who told us that something unusual happened, and one of her daycare children was going to be moving out of state due to a job relocation and she had an opening if we were still interested. When my husband I went for our in person interview we met her, her husband, all of her children, and the family pets. Immediately, we felt comforted and safe. Nobody else we interviewed made us feel this way. We knew right away that she was our 1st choice. It was the best decision we ever made. My son is now 10 months old and he LOVES going to daycare. KiddyUp Daycare has tons of activities and toys for him to play and interact with, he is physically and mentally stimulated, and he just thrives at KiddyUp Daycare. He actually took his 1st steps there, with Mrs. Sheri! The most important of all though, is the love that she has for all of the kids she cares for. My son is not a paycheck to her. My son is someone she truly cares about, protects, and helps grow. I am forever grateful to her. My husband and I feel very blessed to have KiddyUp Daycare. If you are looking for childcare in the Bristow area, look no further.

I sent my daughter to KiddyUp when she was a year old. I was looking for a home daycare, where my daughter could experience the same type of environment that I could give her if I stayed at home. I did not want a home daycare where she would spend her day stuck in a basement. At KiddyUp Ms. Sheri takes care of the children in the main level of her home. The kids get to go and play outside, go for a walk, go to the library... Above all, Ms. Sheri treated my daughter with love and affection as if she was one of her own children. Ms. Sheri goes above and beyond and although my daughter is very shy and introverted she soon came out of her shell and loved going there!!!! While I was at work, I never had to worry about my daughter because I knew that she was in great caring hands!! I highly recommend KiddyUp Childcare!!!

I have two daughters that have been at KiddyUp Childcare for eight years. My oldest was 2 and youngest was 3 months old when we started at KiddyUp. My daughters have been so happy there and are extremely well taken care of. I even transferred them from our zoned elementary school to one in the same district as KiddyUp to keep my girls with a care provider where they are SAFE and HAPPY! It was a blessing to find KiddyUp and I would recommend this provider to anyone looking for quality, loving, highly attentive care!

My youngest son has been at KiddyUp since 2010, from age two. Having had a very good provider for my older son in a different area, I wondered if it would be possible to repeat those positive experiences a decade later. Turns out, it was more than possible. I couldn't imagine a better environment for the care of my son and it is wonderful to know he is happy and safe while I am away at work every day.
