3 Best Day Cares in San Diego, CA

Moonlight Daycare is truly one of a kind. From the moment we met Ms. Mattie, we were impressed by how clean, organized, and welcoming her home was. But what truly makes Moonlight Daycare special is Ms. Mattie. She is an absolute gem. She is so positive, gentle, and full of love for every child in her care. Our son has been with Ms. Mattie for two years, starting with her when he was just 10 months old. Throughout that time it was so clear that she genuinely enjoys what she does. I felt as though my son was being taken care of by a family member, more than just a daycare. Ms. Mattie is also truly an educator, and engages kids in learning through play, while also helping them become thoughtful, respectful, and helpful toward one another. We are so sad that our son is aging out of Moonlight Daycare, but we are so happy to have found Ms. Mattie and would recommend her to anyone needing full time daycare.

Our 2 year old son went to Moonlight Daycare for a little over a year and we absolutely loved it. He really needed help with his social skills and confidence with kids his age and Ms Mattie was so helpful, patient, and kind with our boy. You can tell she loves her daycare kids and has so much expertise and knowledge to share with parents. We are so sad we are moving and having to leave Moonlight Daycare and Ms Mattie, but we are so grateful for the time our son had with her.

Since our two kids have been going to Moonlight Daycare, they have been learning so much! Our 2.5 year old comes home singing new songs or counting, and is always talking about how much fun she has at Miss Mattie’s house playing outside with her friends. Our 18 month old is always in a happy mood at drop off and pick up. Both kids are so social and we have Mattie to thank! Mattie truly knows how to support them throughout all stages of development, from learning talk to potty training, and we could not be more grateful to have her as part of our village.

I was in town for a conference and in need of childcare after mine fell through. Ximena and ABC little hands were there when I needed them and went above and beyond to make sure I could attend my conference and feel safe leaving my daughter there. They sent photo updates that were very appreciated and made drop off and pick up a breeze. I’d highly recommend them to anyone who needs help with childcare especially at the Convention Center while staying in that area - it was a walkable distance from my hotel. Plus since they covered breakfast and lunch that was one less thing I had to plan and coordinate. Thank you Ximena and ABC little hands.

I am so happy we chose ABC Little Hands for our daughter. She started at 4 months old and very quickly the ladies that work there became part of our extended family. My daughter is now turning 2, and always has the biggest smile when we drop her off. She is learning her numbers, letters and lots of fun curriculum. I am really impressed with her growing vocabulary in both English and Spanish! She always comes home clean with a fresh diaper and the pictures they send are some of the best that have ever been taken of my daughter. We would easily make the choice to send her here again.

Ximena and her staff were wonderful with our twins. Caring for twins is no easy task, but they were attentive, loving, and made us feel completely at ease. Our children were happy and well cared for, and we’re grateful to have found such a reliable and trustworthy team. Would definitely recommend if you are in the are and looking for quality care.
