Burnt Mills Knolls Playhouse, Silver Spring

We feel incredibly fortunate to have met this caregiver. My daughter attended her daycare for over two years, and my son is currently enrolled. She is amazing—loving, caring, and dedicated to her work. She has built a spacious, clean extension to her home for the daycare, filled with natural light and fun activities. The facility includes its own bathroom and a separate bedroom for naps, as well as a large backyard with a slide and swings. This child care provider genuinely cares about her business and the families she serves. She organizes events that bring everyone together and is exceptionally generous and kind, creating a wonderful community. The children always look happy and are kind to each other. I cannot recommend her and her daycare highly enough!

may daughter LOVES this provider! she is so happy to go everyday and can not stop talking about her day when I pick her up. My daughter reached many of her developmental milestones early, which is no doubt due to their care and instruction. highly recommend!

It is a nice and friendly place. The caretakers are very good with kids and follow parent’s instructions. They maintain cleanliness at the facility. My son seems to be happy and really liking the place.

As a FTM you get super nervous as to who watches your child outside family, but I am truly lucky to have my little one be watched by this provider and her staff. This provider and her staff are the best. They have a developed a bond with my little one and my little one loves going everyday. The other kids are kind and always willing to play with my child despite the age difference. Her place is clean, bright and cheerful and she's and her staff are attentive to my and my little one's needs. We are very happy here.

Our 2 year old has been with this provider since she was 6 months old and absolutely loves it. This provider has a great setup for both infants and toddlers, including great outdoor space which the kids love. Most importantly, the provider is warm, kind and a wonderful child care provider; she is visibly excited to see our kids everyday and that feeling is fully reciprocated.

This provider is an exceptional day care provider. The place is extremely clean and her care for children is deep from her hurt and it is reflected on how she handles them. I am grateful I find her care for my daughter. Thank you!

We happened upon this daycare when our original daycare plans unexpectedly fell apart my first week back at work! Luckily, she only recently opened her daycare and had some infant spots available, so she was able to take us in the very next day. I'm SO glad we found her. She's so kind to us and our son. You can tell she really enjoys having him there and that he's well taken care of. She keeps a detailed record of his activities throughout the day, which she gives to us when we pick him up. (This is particularly wonderful since I'm one of those annoying moms that is a slave to my baby tracking app.) She also sends us pictures of him throughout the day, which as a first time mom I LOVE! She's been so accommodating, letting us start on such unexpected notice (she only found out we'd be starting there at 7pm the night before we started) and even opening during a snow day so we could make it to work. She also pays a lot of attention to safety and even asked our permission before doing tummy time with our son. She's so thoughtful! Because her daycare is still pretty new, all of the toys and pack n plays are in excellent condition. (The pictures on this website are an accurate reflection of the great shape everything is in.) Have I mentioned how lucky we are that we found her!?!

Wonderful daycare service.
