Gunston Children's House, Lorton

We absolutely loved it here. My son Jordan, was at the daycare for almost 2 years. We only left because we ended up moving out of state. I can’t say enough about the daycare owner. We always felt safe, dropping our son off and knowing he was going to have a fully productive day. What I love most was how genuine she is as a person, and how well she took care of the children. I can also say that my son learned so much as far as colors, numbers and language skills. I was surprised when I went to start flashcards with him, thinking I was introducing him to word and pictures, and he knew them already. My son absolutely adored her, and even though we’ve been gone for three weeks, he still asked for her. Compared to other home cares I think the best part is the fact that they’re almost always open. I don’t recall her being closed a week or two for vacation being closed and most of the American holidays are open as well. That was a big plus as a parent having a break during those holidays. If you’re looking for an intimate care setting for your child with someone who genuinely loves children and it’s not just a business for them, this will be a great place and you know that they will be learning and nurtured as well. We miss her so much

The caregiver is great. our daughter loves going there and we believe it to be a great place for here. I toured larger daycares and believed them to be dirty and impersonal.

This provider is absolutely phenomenal and we feel so fortunate to have found her! She has such a gift with children, and our son was comfortable with her right away when he started at this daycare. With her background in healthcare, we always know that our son is in safe and responsible hands, even in the context of COVID-19. We are moving out of the area and only wish we could have stayed with her longer!

My baby goes to Daycare excitedly everyday. She blows kisses to the provider. My baby loves her. That is a sign that she is well taken care of. The Daycare is very clean and tidy. During COVID quarantine she took the proper measures to keep the children safe. If I have another child, I would definitely choose this provider in a heartbeat. She is so loving and warm.

This provider takes exceptional care of our two-year-old daughter. She cares for her as if she is her own. Also, she teaches her numbers, letters, and reading. We can see the difference in what our daughter has learned since being in her care. The facility is very clean and there’s plenty of room to play and learn. The provider is very nurturing to our daughter and to the other children as well. We love her everyday “warm and welcoming” smile when we drop off/pick up our daughter. We trust this provider and highly recommend her for quality and safe care for any child.

My son started attending this Childcare at 10 weeks old and we couldn’t love her more! This provider is so helpful with the different transitions we are going through like starting solids. She keeps the room spotless and organized, and my baby is so well taken care of at the end of the day. He loves her!

We have been sending our daughter to this daycare for 6 weeks now and we are so happy to have found this provider. We had toured a few others the same day but upon walking into this provider's home the choice was easy. She is very warm and friendly and always happy. She is very communicative with us on status updates and how the day was spent. Her home is very clean and bright and cheery. She speaks so kindly to the children in her care and you can tell she loves each and every one. Our daughter gives her a big smile when we arrive in the mornings so we know the feeling is mutual! We highly recommend this provider.

We knew this was the daycare for our kids as soon as we walked through the door. This daycare has the warm family feel that we were looking for in a daycare. We are very comfortable leaving our kids with this providerc., as we know she is giving them the best care. We drive almost 30 minutes to take them to this daycare as we feel it is the best place for our kids to be while we are at work.

There's no greater comfort for a parent, and a child, than to be greeted by an enthusiastic smile every morning at drop off at day care. My daughter is so excited to go to this daycare every morning. She's happy at drop off, and happy at pick up! We are so blessed to have found this provider, she's loving, caring, and always with a bright smile on her face. Her daycare is extremely clean, which is amazing for a daycare btw, my daughter is always kept clean, fed very well, and naps on schedule. She's learning her letters and numbers, sings, draws and colors! The daycare is safe, S. is very attentive to my child's needs.. we could not ask for any better! Thanks to this provider!
