I have 2 children - my oldest is 8 and my youngest 16 months. My youngest Mali has been with Ms Jenell and Ms Vita since she was just 3 months old. It was heartbreaking for me to leave this tiny little baby in full time day care so young. My oldest stayed home with me until she was almost 2. All that being said Mali is a happy and healthy little girl. I feel like I leave her with my family everyday. Sylvan Nursery offers her a great routine that makes her feel secure. She has grown from a little tiny baby to a toddler with the help and guidance of Ms Jenell and Ms Vita. They helped me get Mali eating and now they are working with her on eating at the big kid table. She is obsessed with books and her vocabulary is constantly improving - I credit Ms Jenell and Ms Vita with this. I love that the kids go outside and play twice a day. I pick Mali up and she has dirt on her jeans and "the roses" in her cheeks. I think that is GREAT!! Plus she sleeps well. I love that Ms Jenell cooks for the kids everyday - I love the aromas I smell as I walk in the door to drop Mali off in the morning. Bottom line - I love Ms Vita and Ms Jenell like family. I trust them with my little girl. I know they love her and are as excited to see her grow and change as I am. Plus, my 8 year old regularly tells me how mad she is that she didn't get to go to Sylvan Day Nursery - they say trust a child's judgement.

Ms. Jenell & Vita have been taking care of our 2 sons from the time they were 3 months old, they are now 4 and 2 years old. In all these years, Ms. Jenell and Vita have been there for our children, providing them with the best environment possible, an environment that is safe, loving, stable but also happy, positive, stimulating and enriching. And although our children have very different behavior and personalities, Ms. Jenell and Vita have been able to handle their different needs and interests and bring the best out in both of them. Ms. Jenell and Vita are truly wonderful ladies. We trust and love them like family and so do our sons.

My two children (one and three years old) have attended Sylvan Hills for five months and I couldn't be happier. I leave each morning knowing that they will be fed and cared for, but most importantly, they will be loved, listened to, encouraged, protected and exposed to new things. Miss Jenell and Vita are extremely warm and loving and they are experienced, knowledgeable and trustworthy. I am so lucky I have found a loving day care for my kids with such reasonable prices.

My 1 ½ y.o son has been a part of the Sylvan Hills Day Nursery family since he was 4 m.o. I don’t use the word “family” loosely. Miss Jenell and Vita love my child as if he were one of their own. He has thrived under their care. And I consider their place in our lives a blessing. Guilt is a part of every working mother’s daily emotional rollercoaster ride. Knowing that my son is with two of the kindest and giving women I know makes it easier to deal with mine. God willing, Kid No. 2 will be a part of this awesome little family, too.
