About

CURRENT OPENINGS: All ages!
Spriggs Run Playhouse in Woodbridge, VA is a family child care and preschool program located in the Spriggs Run Estates neighborhood. This home daycare is right off Spriggs Rd and Minnieville Rd, only a few minutes drive from Dumfries Rd (route 234) and the I-95.
About The Staff
Hello parents! I'm the owner and lead teacher of this nurturing child care and early childhood education program. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics and CPR & First-aid certifications. I also have experience since before opening my own licensed daycare, I used to do home tutoring and worked at 2 child care facilities. I'm also a mom of 2, so I have lots of first-hand child care experience with my own kids, and I can relate to your concerns when it comes to finding the best second home for your little one.
Curriculum
Spriggs Run Playhouse follows the play-based learning approach that allows children to learn through play. Our program also focuses on early academics and leadership, as well as socio-emotional development. We have lots of age-appropriate educational materials and toys, so kids are having fun while learning at the same time. They also love to participate in our cooking and gardening "extracurricular" activities. We have a large open space with bright colors, a library, a circle time area, and a separate nap room, and educational charts are posted everywhere. Our daycare has stations for learning, crafts, blocks, and dress-up that children can use during free play and structured learning time. We also engage our little students in yoga, board work, writing their ABCs, and reading books. If you want your children to learn a foreign language, we can teach him/her Farsi/Urdu in addition to English (however, please note that our daycare is not a bilingual program). I'm planning to hire another language teacher to come once or twice a week and possibly a Music teacher as well.
Program
Our daycare and preschool is open year-round from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday, however, standard rates cover only up to 8 hours of care per day. We can provide full-time and part-time care for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers between the age of 3 months and 5 years old. For school-age kids up to 10 years old, we can offer before and after school care. Children attending full-time are served with lunch and snacks, which are already included in the tuition.
Facility
I know there are lots of home daycares available for you to choose from, but I've invested a lot in my facility: I have 2000 sq. ft. of space that is dedicated for the daycare, so there's enough space to maintain social distancing (children in the daycare are always at least 6 ft. apart). My child care facility is divided into different stations for children to engage in various activities. It includes: * infant center & play area * playground/indoor gym (which has a basketball, slide, bowling, etc.) * different learning stations (Reading, Math, Science, Art, etc.) * classroom, music center & library * homework area for 4 years old and above * nap room with cribs and changing table * cots for 2 years old and above * full kitchen in the basement that is dedicated for the daycare We also have open spacious windows throughout the basement, so children can get plenty of sunlight, which is a good source of Vitamin D to boost their immune system. Thanks for reading about my daycare, I look forward to meeting your family in person :) Please send an email or call through CareLuLu to book a tour.

Spriggs Run Playhouse is an extension of our family! We've been enrolled for almost 3 years now. Our boys have absolutely thrived in their care. The daycare offers a structured play-based learning model. It is set up with stations all around the center for different activities such as yoga, the book/reading corner, the classroom table (for arts & crafts and learning lessons), the snack & meal table, the toy/play center, etc. There's a large indoor gym for physical activity on the days they can't play outside in the lovely backyard or go on one of their long walks in the quiet & safe neighborhood. There's a kitchen for food and snack prep and full-size windows which let in plenty of natural light. The center also offers a separate infant nap room which provides a quiet space to the younger kids to rest up as their schedule dictates. This daycare is SO organized, clean, and safety is always a top priority. The caregivers are attentive to the children and provide them with lots of love. There's a mutual respect between the kids and the caregivers that sets Spriggs Run Playhouse apart from other daycares. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Spriggs Run for caring for our boys!

This caregiver is wonderful. My child loves going every day. Her home is clean and safe with ample amount of materials for the children to play and learn. Everyday my daughter comes home to tell me what she has learned. I would recommend this daycare to anyone.

We are very happy with her care. Her center is large and extremely clean. She prioritizes outside time and keeping the kids active. Our daughter is thriving educationally. She has progressed so much. She is so kind, flexible and has good communication. She absolutely loves the kids in her care.

The owner is an excellent caregiver and her childcare center is top notch. Our son loves going to daycare because the environment is clean, safe, and filled with genuine care. He comes home happy and has learned a lot since he began attending the daycare. It is immediately obvious she takes pride in her work and the kiddos are the ones that benefit the most. If you are looking for a daycare center, she is easily the best in the area.

An excellent environment for any child to grow up learning in. We have had our child there since 2021 and would recommend this center to anyone. Center is always clean, organized, has an indoor play gym and instructors are just like family.

The owner runs the best daycare facility and makes you feel like you are leaving your child with family! My child has been with her since 2021 and the facility has always been spotless, fun, and full of love from all the teachers. They emphasize learning through play and the indoor gym provides an outlet for hyper little ones even on the rainiest and cold days. I trust her and her assistants whole heartedly with my child and highly recommend her facility!

My son started attending Ms. S’ daycare just a month ago now and the improvement and advancements he’s made is amazing. He turned 1 two days ago, where they made his day a very special one. The changes he’s made since beginning are just astonishing. finding someone I could trust with my child was so important in finding his provider. as soon as I met Ms. S I knew she was the one. the love she has for the children radiates and I never have a worry when leaving my son in her care. Her center is beautiful and education based and it shows! i feel so lucky to have found this place.

Ms. S’s daycare has been an absolute godsend, she genuinely loves each and every one of her kids. She keeps her facility immaculate and our daughter asks to go to daycare as soon as she gets up in the morning. Her assistant are super helpful and also two of the nicest ladies of met. At our previous daycare our daughter was constantly rushed to get her morning routine going and rushed to get out the door in the afternoon before other parents came and constantly being told what not to do instead of what she could be doing instead. Ms. S. and her assistants take their time with Sophia and it really shows.

The provider and her staff is wonderful with my children, ages 2 and 5 months. My two year old is kept busy with learning activities, social play, and physical activity and my 5 month old has much opportunity for purposeful play and holding/cuddling. The facility is spectacular, with tons of toys, while kept meticulously clean and well organized. The atmosphere is very professional but yet feels personal and homey. We are very lucky to have found this provider!

She is wonderful person who provides a loving atmosphere. It will not take your child long to adjust to such a caring environment. She also teaches kids very good and while having many engaging activities planned throughout the day. We are so happy to have found the perfect home away from from home for our son. 100% recommended.

My son loves going to her daycare. Finding a daycare that gives me peace of mind was extremely hard, that's why I'm so happy I found this daycare, in the midst of the pandemic. My son loves the facility. She's sweet, loves the children, the facility is beautiful and clean. She is amazing and I know my son is safe, cared for, and learning.

We are so happy to have found this provider! She’s very caring and that’s a great comfort to me that my son is being well care for while I’m working. She has a background in education and is passionate about teaching our child. He’s two years old and has learned so much, from letters to picking up after himself (yes!!). She even provides nutritious, healthy meals. It is VERY clean and very safe there. There are lots of play areas and my son loves going from station to station. I really cannot say enough good things about her and her school/daycare.
