Shooting Stars Daycare proudly adheres to the highest standards of education and caregiving. This is a licensed home daycare business located in San Carlos, near Mission Trails National Park. My life has been dedicated to caregiving, specializing in infants and toddlers. I've made a career working closely with parents as a Nanny for their babies for the last 20 plus years. Once I had my daughter, I knew in my heart a home daycare is my dream come true. I absolutely love working with children everyday. They constantly remind you of the simple pleasures in life and I feel so grateful to be teaching the next generation. I earned a Bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education, Labor Doula certified, and almost certified as a sleep consultant. A combination of education and experience has taught me the most beneficial ways to help teach and care for our kiddos. I believe we offer so much more than other daycares. Each child is so different and this daycare considers the needs of your unique child. Their schedule is tailored to their everyday needs.We will be setting developmental goals to work towards together each month. Your child won't be forced to adhere to the other children schedule. They will have their own room to nap in. I believe this is very important! Especially for the infants since their schedule changes weekly, even daily depending on how their night went. The best part of my job is growing a strong bond with the parents and their child. I love each baby as I would my own. That is what they need and that is what I will provide. As a parent, peace of mind is one of the best gifts knowing your child is being loved while being educated and stimulated for their individual growth. I've been committed to providing a supportive environment where our child can thrive. Soar like a shooting star in the sky! Please keep reading to learn more about our daycare and I'd love to learn about your family too!

Hi Parents, My name is Francesca Sanfilippo (formerly Sciuto) and I have been running a licensed and insured, in-home daycare in my lovely home in the Mission Hills area for over 32 years. I am and remain current with my CPR and First Aid certifications. I consider myself to be a loving, nurturing, energetic, and hands on caregiver who treats my children as I did my own. It is common for me to have parents bring their second and third children to me. I specialize in infant toddler care. I am bilingual in Italian/English. I have been licensed and registered with the State of California Community Care Licensing referral list for 29+ years and I have a perfect record from licensing! My home has easy access for drop-off and pickup. I limit my care to three children to insure that each child receives my personal love, care, and attention.

Spacious outdoor learning environment Separate nap room (Personal crib or toddler bed.) Multicultural Curriculum with Yoga and Gardening Lessons All Staff has Child Development Degrees Music and Movement Turtle Exhibit and Pet Chickens Affordable rates - rates include healthy homemade meals Hours: 7:30 am to 5:30 pm We have positive reviews Healthy Toddlers Care mission is to provide a program which considers the intellectual, creative, social, emotional and physical development of the whole child while fostering curiosity, confidence, and compassion in an academically rich environment that inspires a lifelong commitment to learning. We believe that a safe, stable, healthy and culturally relevant environment is crucial to a child's growth. Through the cooperative partnership of parents and staff, we provide a model of community that will sustain and enrich our children throughout their lives. FAQ Q: What age range do you accept? Generally, we only accept infants who are 18 months and older. However, we may make an exception for a child who can walk and feed him/her self. If your child doesn't have these skills, it's best for you to sign up for our waiting list. However, we will except school age students for drop-in purposes. We understand that families need services when their school may have an extended holiday break or school closer dates. Q: Do you have a cut off age? Yes. Our enrollment cut-off age is four-years-old. We strongly believe that children need to graduate from childcare to preschool at age four. Just as students in an elementary, middle and high school are usually grouped by age, we find that the four-year-olds are ready to break away from the toddlers and infants to prepare for kindergarten. Q: Do you accept part-time enrollments? I was thinking of using a childcare service for two or three days a week. As a family childcare home, we have a limited number of students we can enroll. It doesn't make sense for us to allocate space for part-time students. You are welcome to enroll your child on a full-time basis and not send him/her every day. But we do charge full tuition for every child regardless of the number of days he/she attends. Q: What are your hours? Our regular hours are from 7:30 to 5:30. Ther
