About Us
Hi parents, welcome to Horizon Hill Bilingual French Daycare, my home daycare in Potomac, MD! I’m the owner and main caregiver, and I am a mother of 4 children with 15 years of experience. I hold an Associates’ degree Business Administration and have my first-aid and CPR certifications. I run our family child care program with my assistant who is also a mother of 4 children! I started my career in education as a French teacher for school-aged children in Montgomery County. I then decided to focus on early education, and worked at several child care centers and preschools. Taking care and teaching young children has always made me happy. I love spending time with children, playing with them, and helping them learn. That's when I decided to open my own home daycare! My goal is to help young children build the skills they need to learn and grow through patience, nurturing and dedication.
Curriculum
From infancy to preschool to kindergarten, at Horizon Hill Bilingual French Daycare, your child will engage in fun and exciting early learning activities, specifically designed to meet her or his developmental needs. During our daily morning circle time, the children practice saying their names, learn about colors, and enjoy reading a book of the week. We also incorporate flashcards into our routine to help them learn essential skills they'll need for preschool. We offer a Bilingual French daycare, and our approach exposes your child at an early age to a second language. This has been proven to help children become more flexible problem solvers in a multicultural world. We focus not only on social and emotional skills, but also on movement and motor skills.
Our Program
We offer full-time and part-time daycare, for infants as young as 3 weeks old, and also provide care for toddlers and preschoolers up to 5 years old. I can provide drop-in child care as needed, and we do offer before and after school care for older children, up to 12 years old. We’re open from 7 am to 6pm, Monday through Wednesday and from 7 am to 5:30 pm, Thursday to Friday. Transportation can be arranged and we provide lunch and snacks to the children in our care (we’re a peanut-free and tree-nut free daycare.)
Our Facility
I've invested in my daycare facility to create an inviting and stimulating environment for children. Our bright and spacious area features excellent lighting, designated spaces for art and circle time, as well as wall decor along with educational posters and children's artwork. We keep our toys, puzzles, and hand games neatly organized on a large shelf. Additionally, we have interactive walkers and bouncers to help young children learn about colors, shapes, and numbers.
Location
Horizon Hill Bilingual French Daycare is conveniently located near the I-270, across from Horizon Hill Park in Potomac (we’re between Potomac and Rockville, near the Fallsmead Elementary School and Robert Frost Middle School.) Please call or send an email to schedule a visit, I look forward to meeting you and your little one!

In the short time since my son started at this daycare, he has been well loved and happy! The caregivers are warm, affectionate, knowledgeable, and extremely communicative.

We love and are grateful for this daycare. She is a kind and fun-spirited educator who is dedicated to creating an inclusive, creative and fun environment. She offers structured curriculum where kids have circle time, art/crafts, and plenty of outdoor activities. We also really like that she communicates with parents on a regular basis and provides daily report for your kid. She prioritizes specialized attention to kids to support their individual growth.

We are so blessed we found this daycare! This is my daughter Julia’s home away from home. They treat Julia like their own daughter, giving her love and safety and home cooked meals! They take the babies outside all the time and on field trips and do water play in the summer. We highly recommend this family childcare program.

She is such a fantastic teacher. she always read to my little girl, took her on walks, helped her develop her fine motor skills, and the best part for me was that she really helped us with getting our daughter to solid food! I will be here till pre-k!

We were thrilled with the care our daughter received. She was excited to go to see this provider each day. She was nurtured and cared for with devotion that made me comfortable and confident to leave her each day. I am grateful for the thoughtful activities, kind encouragement, and engaging child development materials that this provider used daily with her. I would recommend her facility to someone that is looking for a loving caretaker that will foster educational, emotional, and social growth.

I feel that my baby girl is in great hands with both the providers at this daycare. They are loving and warm-hearted. They go out of their way to help children and their parents feel comfortable. I recommend this daycare without hesitation.

My daughter is in the best hands with this provider! As a first-time mother, I had such anxiety about leaving her at daycare, but any worries abated in the first week with this provider. She and her helper truly care about each child, a sentiment mirrored by my daughter, who gives them big hugs and smiles at drop-off and pick-up. I get a full report every day, so I feel very aware of my daughter's progress and overall health. The provider's home is in a safe quiet Potomac neighborhood, with sidewalks throughout and a small park at the end of the street. I would recommend this child care to any other parent, wholeheartedly!

This provider is truly the most incredible care provider I could ever hope for. My husband and I cannot imagine a more attentive, thoughtful, energetic, loving, and responsible person to take care of our precious child. She provides an incredibly nurturing environment that fosters growth and development. The individual care and attention that she provides for my child never ceases to amaze me. As a working mom, I thank my lucky stars every single day that my child is in her care.

This daycare provider is very tentative with our daughter's needs. She has a helper who is also very good with the kids. She only has 3 children right now, so we feel she can dedicated personal time with each individual.
