We are so lucky to have found Mattie. Reasonable amount of kids, no screens, home-cooked meals, lots of outdoor time year around. She means so much to our family and has helped raise our children for the past 5 years, through the pandemic. I could not recommend a better provider and partner!

My son attended Sunshine Family Child Care as an after school child and occasionally during the summer. I always knew that Ms. Moreno was taking care of him- and loving him- as her own. She is very motivated to ensure that the children have healthful meals and enjoy outside play time. As the children get older, she modifies activities to suit their development- for instance, as a late elementary school age child, my son had to help with the "little kids"- assist them with washing hands before lunch, or helping them to put away toys before naps. He learned about responsibility and contributing to everything happening smoothly. I also really appreciated that Ms. Moreno spoke in Spanish to him, reinforcing the Spanish that he was learning through school. I ALWAYS refer parents to her!

As soon as we toured Sunshine Family Child Care we knew this was the perfect place for our daughter. Our almost two-year old has been coming here since she was 12 weeks old. She absolutely loves going to daycare (sometimes she doesn't want to leave) and as a working mom it means the world to me to see her happy and thriving. I am so pleased she is learning so much while having fun playing with her friends! We consider Matilde a part of our family and are so grateful we found such a safe, loving, and nurturing environment for our daughter.

Miss Matilde Moreno is a very good caregiver. She has been taking care of my son for more than one year and, I do not have any complain about how she is taking care of him. My son is always happy to go there. Today is Sunday and he is asking for her and his friends at Sunshine Family Child Care. If you need someone to truth with your kind you should call her. She is very caring and lovely. Before her, I was afraid to live my son with any babysitter but now I do not have to worry about him. I truth her and I love the way she is taking care of my son.
Response from the provider:
Hi Arlette; thank you for your comments i really appreciate your trust, we love you and your son thank you. Matilde Moreno
