OPENINGS: We are full at this time.
About Me:
Thank you for your interest in Burnt Mills Manor Children's Place, my home daycare in Silver Spring, MD. I am the owner and main caregiver and I hold CPR & First-aid certifications. I am also a mother of 2 and now that my children are all grown-up, I decided to open my own licensed child care program. My passion and love for kids was the reason why I decided to start my own family child care program. Before opening my own daycare, I worked as a substitute caregiver at another licensed daycare.
Program:
My daycare is open year round, from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm Monday through Friday. I can provide full-time child care for infants as young as 4 months, as well as toddlers up to 5 years old, including children with special needs. I also run a peanut & tree-nut free environment and serve snacks to all children in my care (included in the tuition). I took an online certification to learn about health and safety protocols. I deep clean every Friday and separate toys that children have used and put them in a separate bin.
Curriculum:
My program offers extra-curricular activities such as Arts, Music, Dance, Math, Science, Plants, Puzzles, Letters, and Reading. My space is well decorated and has colorful foam mats, educational charts posted on the walls, a library, lots of toys, and special details like pictures and art projects hanging. I not only get the children ready for school, but I make sure that they are above level. In addition to English, I also speak Amharic and at your request, I can expose your little one to this foreign language. My home has a large fenced backyard, so your child will be able to safely enjoy their outdoor play-time!
Location:
Burnt Mills Park Kids Playhouse is conveniently located in Silver Spring, MD off Columbia Pike/Colesville Rd. I am also a few minutes away from New Hampshire Ave (route 650), University Blvd W (route 193) and the Beltway (I-495). I am looking forward to meeting your family! Please call or send an email to schedule a visit.

They have been taking care of my son for the past 3 years and my daughter for the past year and a half. We were so blessed to find them. They care for each child as if they were their own. I feel like they are family. She keeps the day care clean and tidy and has a fabulous backyard dedicated to kid fun! She gives daily reports on eating, potty, and activities. The kids have play time and also do learning lessons and activities. Again, we have been so blessed to have them and their family in our lives.

I highly value the care provider who looks after my son. She possesses qualities that make her an exceptional caregiver such as being experienced, nurturing, trustworthy, and dependable. She treats every child as if they were her own, displaying love, and patience, and taking the time to connect with each child. She also provides me with a daily report concerning my son's daily activities and concerns if any (that is very impressive and important to me). I am delighted with the care my son receives from her and cannot envision entrusting him to anyone else.

We have been blessed to send our son to this daycare for the past two years. From the moment we first met her we knew that she would take wonderful care of him and appreciated how clean, organized, and thoughtfully decorated her space was. She greatly values learning and works hard to give the children a variety of educational and play-based experiences. Her outdoor space is wonderful and she is very conscientious about keeping it safe and comfortable for the kids. She is sweet and loving as well and we have bonded with the whole family who all show genuine love and interest in our child and his special interests. As a parent, you can't ask for anything more than a place like this!

My 14 month old daughter has been under the care of this caregiver since she was 6 months old and I have nothing but great things to say about her care. There is attention to detail, open communication, and an emphasis on safety that has been extremely consistent our entire experience with her.

Miss S. has created a loving and safe learning space for our son. He started when he turned two and quickly adapted to being at her daycare. She creates routines that help him predict what is happening for the day. She also teaches them a lot of different topics like shapes, letters, animal habitats, and more. He loves playing with the other kids and almost always has a smile on his face when we get to Miss S.'s house. She understand the balance of learning while also having fun and letting the kids engage in imaginative play. She updates us daily on how he is doing. We love Miss S.!

We feel so lucky to have found this provider and started with her when our daughter was 4 months old. Our daughter loves her and is thriving under her care. She provides daily reports and often shares photos or videos from the day. The owner and her assistant have such a way with children, and truly care for each of the kids as their own. Their health and safety procedures give us great confidence, even during the ongoing pandemic and we would trust their judgement in an emergency. There is nothing more reassuring as a parent than to know you child spends their day happy, safe, having fun, and learning. Parents have a true partner and advocate in this daycare owner and her staff.

I absolutely LOVE the care that they provided for my son. The provider was so caring and thoughtful. When looking for a caretaker, I had so many reservations over picking a home daycare. I was full of troubling thoughts like "who would be around my child" "would my child be safe" "would my child be cared for properly"? I have toured many day care centers in the area, As soon as I entered this center, I knew that this place was full of love. The provider’s family quickly became a part of ours. A very CLEAN, spacious, centrally located place. I would refer this daycare to anyone in a heartbeat. I could only wish that all children get to be cared by providers as great as this provider. Thank you for everything that you have done for my precious baby boy.

This is a fabulous home daycare! As a first time mom I was very anxious about leaving my baby in daycare, this provider made the transition into daycare so easy. Her experience with kids put my mind at ease and she’s really helped me by giving me suggestions with my baby’s routines! I can tell that she genuinely cares for my child and my child has seriously bonded with her and all the adults in the daycare. The place is always clean, organized, and full of engaging activities for little ones of all ages. What I appreciate the most, besides the attachment she’s formed with my daughter, is her paper report at the end of the day and the daily pictures I receive. Both the report and the pictures help me feel less sad about dropping my baby off the next day because I know she’s in great hands!
Response from the provider:
thank you so much for your kind words. it was hard to say bye to my little angel. I already missed her. tanks again sy

As a teacher and mother, I was looking for an environment that not only provided love, but also structure and a push to help my daughter continue to grow and learn. This provider has provided that and more. My daughter whom is 2 feels like this space is a second home to her. In the 6 months we have been with her, she has potty trained my daughter, helped to master many primary elementary skills and second language skills . This provider spends a lot of time creating new centers and ways to engage the kids in learning. This is all noted in the reports she provides daily. This provider is extremely loving, dependable, engaging , interactive, structured, and trustworthy. Anyone would be grateful to allow this provider the privilege of taking care of their little one.

For an over protective first time mum like myself, finding the right childcare for my 3 month old son was nerve wracking. After an exhaustive frustrating search I met this provider. She immediately calmed my nerves due to her warm, friendly and inviting personality. Her space is clean and organized and my son warmed up to her immediately. He is now almost a year old and has a smile on his face every time I drop him off at daycare. This provider is engaging, experienced, nurturing, trustworthy and dependable. She treats every child as her own. She is loving, patient and takes the time to connect with every child and provides a daily report of the child's daily activities and concerns if any. I am very pleased with the care provided to my son and could not imagine leaving my son with anyone else but her.
