About The Staff
Hi, parents! I’m the owner and director of operations of this nurturing child care and early childhood education program. I’m a mom of 2 with 23 years of professional experience. My team consists of moms with many years of child care experience, so we can definitely relate to your needs and concerns when it comes to finding high-quality care for your little one.
We understand that it’s very hard for working parents to balance the requirements and responsibilities in their lives. That’s why it’s so important to find support! We are dedicated to providing high-quality care that helps each child grow up to be upstanding members of society. We ensure that they are prepared for the different challenges that may come.
Curriculum
A to Z Fun Care uses an approved, researched-based, and age-appropriate curriculum. At our daycare, your child will learn something new every day in a safe, loving and nurturing environment. We strive to meet your child’s physical, intellectual, social, and emotional needs by consistently working with parents in an open, honest way. We focus on allowing children to grow and learn through play and in a safe, loving environment.
We offer a variety of activities that are geared to the ages, interests, and abilities of the children which address all four development domains: physical, socio-emotional, cognitive, and language. The learning centers include a library, blocks, dramatic play, art, discovery, toys, games, music, dance, cooking, and computers.
When your child is with us, you can be at peace knowing that they are accepted, respected, and stimulated. Patience, sharing, responsibility, compassion for self and others, and teamwork are some of the values that are emphasized throughout each interaction.
Program
We’re open all throughout the year from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm, Monday through Friday. We accept infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, between the age of 0 and 6 years old. Our program offers full-time and part-time care, as well as before and after school care. We also serve homemade healthy snacks, which are included in the tuition. In the summer, we have a fun summer camp program!

A to Z childcare has been such a great experience for our son and our family. He enjoys seeing his teachers and friends everyday. They communicate with us daily. Our son shows us all the things he learns at the childcare like play, communication and being social.

We moved to MD 4 months ago and I am so glad that we chose AtoZ funcare for our kids. We love all teachers at our current location and both my kids get very excited to go to school every morning. What I like the most about this daycare (on top of loving teachers) is their education program! My older boy (4.5 yr old) has been telling me what has been learning every day and you can tell teachers really care about their development!! You won't regret choosing this daycare for your little ones :)

Our daughter has been in multiple daycare facilities over the past few years due to several family moves. At her last facility she developed a fear of entering the building which lasted the entire year but always seemed fine at the end of the day. We were nervous about beginning a new daycare because we never understood her fear of going to the last school, but after only 3 days of going to A to Z, she stopped crying at drop off and began running in the door each morning! Leila, Dolly, and all the caregivers at A to Z really made such a positive impact on her. We are genuinely grateful for the loving community which Leila has built and how that has translated to our daughters view of going to school everyday. She knows that she is beyond loved everywhere she goes and can really continue to learn and grow as an individual! Thank you Leila!!

Picking the right daycare is never easy, and is even harder in the middle of a pandemic. We have been very fortunate to find AtoZ Fun Care. Leila patiently answered all of our questions and worked with us to pick the right time to start daycare for our toddler. Leila and her staff are very professional and welcoming, and our little one loves her daycare. Weather permitting, they spend time outside. They provide a written report everyday with a log of activities, diaper change, nap time, food and snack. They also provide breakfast and lunch, and the lunch is homemade. The facility is also well kept and clean. Me and my wife definitely recommend A to Z Fun Care.
Response from the provider:
Thank you dear Masoud for your kind words. I really appreciate it. we love our little princess so much.

We love A to Z Fun Care! Our son has been going there for 6 months, starting when he was 19 months old. The daycare is spacious and always meticulously clean. They spend time in the classroom every day and also have plenty of free play time as well. They provide breakfast, lunch and two snacks. The teachers are amazing and are so sweet and loving towards the kids. We are very happy and definitely recommend A to Z Fun Care!

Our two-year old son has been in A to Z fun care for almost one year. We are so happy and feel lucky to choose this family daycare. The owner, Ms Leila, is one of the most impressive early childhood education teachers we have ever met. She is a warm, easy-going and enthusiastic lady, and truly responsive to kids. She taught our son how to be a well-behaved nice person, taught him lots of basic knowledge, numbers, colors, shapes, and so, so much more. The assistants teachers, Ms Mimi, Ms Kate and Ms Mini, are excellent too. The kindness and patients in which they show to my son is outstanding. For our little one, Ms Mimi and Ms Kate are more than teachers. They look just like his grandmas. They gave our son lots of attention, warm words, and hugs. With Ms Leila and her team's kind help, our son fit into the new environment very soon, and now, he is so excited to go to the daycare and feels completely happy, safe, and secure there, which really means a lot to us.

Our two-year-old daughter has been at A to Z for over a year and is truly flourishing. It's a very loving and warm environment. Everyday we drop her off we feel as though we're leaving her with family. She can't wait to see everyone every morning and is so ecstatic to tell me what she did every afternoon when we get home. Leila and her team are meticulous and truly take pride in what we have found to be a great program.

We have two children who both started attending A to Z around 4 months old. We are very happy with our experience. Leila and Mimi have been treating us like family since day one and Kate and Karla have been just as wonderful since they joined. Their love for kids and what they do truly shows. The space is large and has separate designated rooms for reading & learning, playing, and napping. Everything is kept extremely clean. There is also an outdoor play area that is well maintained. They follow a curriculum and conduct regular projects with the kids. When Karla (part-time) is there, she teaches Spanish words. They provide meals & snacks and Mimi cooks nutritious lunches, which is such an appreciated bonus. Feedback and updates are generally well communicated and Leila is always willing to schedule a phone call or meeting if you have any questions or concerns. Overall, we know that they love & adore our children and our children love them and we couldn't be more at ease taking them there every day.

My twins have been attending A to Z fun care since September and this was our first time trying out a daycare. Leila, Kate and Mimi just feel like family and I feel very much at ease leaving my kids there. Leila updates me with videos and photos of kids frequently and I really appreciate that. My kids always seem happy and look forward to going there. I loved how A to Z is organized. It's very clean and well lit up and always organized. My kids always come home with new projects and always surprise me with new things they have learned from the daycare. I highly recommend this place.

My kid has been there almost one year and this place originally was referred via my friends. Overall it's a wonderful place for little kids, people here are super friendly. My kid always saying "Leila, Mimi, Kate, swimming, okay?" at night before she goes to sleep, which meansshe likes to play with "Leila, Mimi, Kate, swimming". That shows everything. We appreciate Leila, Mimi, Kate's hard work and a five-star to this place.

We started bringing our daughter to A to Z at around 9 months after moving to Potomac. I toured a lot of places and was very impressed with how clean the facility was and how inviting the space was. I loved that there was a separate area for sleeping. Since my daughter still relies on a few naps a day, it was important for me to find a place where she would feel comfortable napping. The sleep facility is so nice at A to Z and is separate from the play and classroom areas. There are a lot of things for the kids to do inside and out - from play time, to classroom time, to arts and crafts, to outdoor fun on the playground set. Leila, Mimi, and Kate are wonderful with the kids and I could tell after my first day how much the children love them. My daughter is one of the younger children at A to Z, and it is so nice to see her look up to and learn from the other kids. Leila is very good about communicating with the parents via text or email or phone and her childcare experience is exceptional. The location is also great for anyone driving on 270/beltway for work.

My son is 19 months old and loves going to A to Z! The space is bright, open, and very clean. The teachers, Leila, Mimi, Kate, and Karla, are so loving and treat my son like family. He learns new songs and his vocabulary has really expanded. Leila is great about communication and we feel very lucky to have found this second home.
