Our Daycare

Just Like Home Family Daycare is not just a daycare, we are a safe place for your child to learn and grow.  We believe that children are collaborators and learn through interactions with their peers combined with the classroom. We have created a family friendly environment that is safe for all ages, aesthetically pleasing without being overstimulating, and serves as a “third teacher” to the children within.
