We are an in home drop in daycare located in Springfield, VA. We are minutes away from the Franconia Springfield Metro Station, I-95 interchange, Old Keene Mill Road slug lines, Springfield Towne Center, and Kingstowne. We operate under a smaller capacity (no more than 4 children), in order to give more one-on-one attention to the children in our care. Our goal is to provide a fun and safe learning environment for your child, while encouraging social, emotional, intellectual, and physical development. Your child will receive quality personal and individualized care in a warm and loving home, where they can feel safe and happy while building confidence in a new environment. Our home is designed to provide both a nurturing home atmosphere along with large dedicated areas for the children to actively learn and play in; a stimulating environment with spacious rooms rich in color giving each child an exciting world full of opportunities to explore, learn, and grow. Furthermore, we maintain a low teacher to child ratio. Therefore, your child will receive a nurturing foundation for development and encouraging environment for your child to reach their full potential. We have a large fully fenced, child friendly backyard, equipped with fun and safe playing equipment. Well balanced nutritious meals and snacks are also offered to your child. We incorporate lots of fun activities into your child's daily schedule including arts and crafts, free-play, structured-play, music, song and dance, painting, coloring, various creative and educational projects, and much more. Additionally, for children ages two and three, we offer an age appropriate preschool curriculum. Because of these points, we feel we are able to provide the best of both worlds (learning and fun, all in one). Our family daycare meets all the requirements established by the Fairfax County Office for Children. We understand that you are trusting us to care for your child, and we take this responsibility very seriously. We look forward to the opportunity to care for your child, while providing a positive influence in their life.

I moved to the Springfield area last month and now have space available for new children! I am located on Backlick Road with easy access from Franconia-Springfield/I-395/I-95/495. I have experience watching children of all ages. From newborns to infants to children beginning their first day of school! Each day is a bit different here at Ambreen's Home Daycare. Depending on the ages of each child, I work together with families and establish a wide array of activities that stimulate both the mind and body. Some days may begin with morning songs and story time, followed by learning games and many other fun daily activities. My daycare focuses on the children having fun while learning in a collaborative and positive way. I strive to help children of all ages develop good manners, strengthen social skills; and to encourage creativity from within. As a family-centered home daycare, we work to strengthen the relationship between children and their families. We do our best to understand and exceed each child and their families expectations. We have two available slots beginning September 6th. Please message to set up a time to further discuss! References are also available upon request.
