-"My daughter attended Little Munchkins daycare for almost three years and we were so happy with her care. Barbara is professional, caring, responsible and excellent with the children. She is always timely and is clear in her communication. Her house is always clean and she provides the children with a wonderful variety of toys to play with. I appreciate her consistency in bringing kids outside to play in a shady area when it is warm and having the indoor options for play in the cooler months. I appreciate the home-cooked meals Barbara served! I could always tell that my daughter was happy and had a good day when I picked her up. She is always happy to go to “Barbara House.”"

-"I cannot say enough fabulous things about Barbara and her family daycare. I was so nervous leaving my five-month-old in child care when I went back to work, but she cuddled and loved him all day long. As he grew older, she helped him to play with the other kids. When I took him to her house in the morning, he would break into a smile and start to wave before I even opened the door. It was a warm, friendly, homey and safe daycare for our son. Barbara also always gives a detailed run-down at the end of the day, with information on when the baby slept, ate, and what he did during the day. I was so impressed by her memory and organization!"

-"Barbara took care of my daughter for a year while my daughter was 2 years old. Barbara is a professional through and through. Leaving your child with someone is difficult, but I never worried for my daughter when she was with Barbara. Each morning Barbara greeted us with a smile and was a master at the hand-off process. Her home is full of educational toys and activities. The children would spend time inside and outside depending on the weather. At pick up, I found a happy and healthy little girl who seemed to have enjoyed her day. Barbara always described the day in full, including the content of the nutritious meals that she would provide." 

-"My son attended Barbara's Daycare till he was three years old. He loved going to Barbara's everyday and I liked knowing he was safe and well cared-for. The daycare was in a warm home environment with a bright and sunny playroom, and the kids went outside whenever possible. He loved Miss Barbara! He also learned a great deal and socialized with other children, which was important when he transitioned to a more formal pre-school program." 

-" Cannot say enough wonderful things about Barbara. My two year old daughter looks forward to going to Barbara's each day with a smile on her face! I trust her completely and would recommend her highly!"

-"Barbara has been the daycare provider for both of my children-my eldest for the first three years of her life-and has my utmost regard and respect. She has provided the highest quality care we could hope for, fostering a nurturing environment through developmentally appropriate activities and a loving affect that permeates the entire home center. Barbara has made an indelible mark on my life and the lives of my children."

-"Our son went to Barbara’s daycare 3 days/week from age 3 mos. to 3 ½+ years. We chose Barbara’s daycare because of the family atmosphere, Barbara’s loving nature with the kids, and her childcare philosophy (including little or no TV). Barbara’s daycare contributed significantly to our son’s early development—in terms of socialization and the exposure she gave him to music, books, pre-reading skills (e.g. learning to identify and write the letters of the alphabet), arts & crafts (we were so impressed by the things she prepared in advance using recyclables that the kids then assembled and decorated), etc. Our son loved being able to play freely and creatively, with lots of time outdoors weather-permitting. He was always sad when it wasn’t a “Barbara day.” My husband and I felt at the time and ever since that Barbara’s daycare was the perfect choice of all the daycare alternatives. And one more thing, Barbara somehow managed to stay healthy throughout, so that she never took a sick day; as working parents, we were grateful for her reliability."

-"As a psychologist, it was very important to me that my daughter have the chance to form a secure attachment to a daycare provider while also developing relationships with other children. Two colleagues from my graduate program recommended Barbara as they had placed their children with her. When I visited I knew right away that Barbara was the right person to care for my child. She brings years of experience, common sense, humor, warmth, and love to her work. The children were obviously attached to her and she clearly understood each child's temperament and individual needs. Her home is clean and safe. There are several designated play areas filled with toys, books, and activities, but there is a family atmosphere as children have the run of most of the living areas, with supervision. It is definitely a home away from home for my daughter. She is now 2 and has been there since she was six months old, 3 days/week. Her time there has contributed vastly to her social skills, motor skills, creativity, and language skills. I have never had a moment's worry about her safety or well-being when she was with Barbara. As another parent said to me, "She truly loves them like her own children."

-"Barbara is a very warm and loving daycare provided. I left her home knowing that my daughter was in good hands and that she would have lots of stimulation and consistency in a homey environment. Barbara genuinely cares about all the children and is just a natural at what she does. I always really appreciated the detailed rundown at the end of the day of everything that happened with my little one."
