We completely loved Mamoda and would recommend her to anyone! We heard about Mamoda from a friend and our son started with her when he was 10 months old. Throughout our time with Mamoda, our son thrived and loved every minute he spent with her! His face would light up at the sight of her and he barely noticed when we would leave. Some nights, he didn't even want to go home...seriously:) Mamoda provides a very caring and loving facility for... more

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! We moved our 2 year-old daughter from a previous in-home daycare to Mamoda 14 months ago, and we could not be happier with our decision. Our daughter is shy and does not take to "strangers" easily, but when we first met Mamoda to visit her facilities, our little one smiled at her right away and by the end of our 15 minute visit, when Mamoda asked for a hug from her, she jumped into her arms. Outside of the facilities being... more

We absolutely adore Mamoda! Our daughter started with Mamoda when she was 3 months old (over a year now), and from the beginning, it felt like a perfect fit. Mamoda is very patient and attentive, treating each child as if they are her own. At pick up, she updates us with how our daughters day went and sends texts/pictures throughout the day. Her home is clean and in a safe neighborhood. Mamoda has been very flexible and accommodating with... more

We heard about Mamoda from a neighbor on the same street when we struggled to find a reliable and trusted daycare provider for our then 4-month old son. After meeting with her, we immediately knew that we found the perfect place for our son. My son has been under her care for almost 8 months. He likes her very much! When we pick him up every afternoon, he is very happy and satisfied. Mamoda is always ready to follow our special food requirement... more

Our daughter has been going to Mamoda since she was 3 months old (she's 9 months now). We are so happy and grateful to have someone like Mamoda watching her everyday. As first time parents, we were nervous about...well everything, however, it was apparent from our first meeting with Mamoda how much she truly cared about the kids that were in her care, and that put us at ease right away. She sends pictures and text messages to let us know how our... more

Our son has been with Mamoda over a year now. He started with her at 3 months. We are so happy and thankful to have Mamoda watching over him! She is extremely patient and thoughtful. Our other children have been in a daycare center previously and this has been our first experience with an in-home provider and we couldn't be happier. It is such an advantage to have the same person caring for your child each day and in a loving and home... more

My daughter has been with Mamoda since she was 10 months old (over a year now). I remember the first day I dropped my daughter off and Mamoda was so thoughtful and supportive towards me. She even texted pictures and updates throughout the day (and couple of weeks), making me feel at ease. Her facility is always super clean, bright, and inviting. Mamoda is the most caring, nurturing, and amazing caregiver anyone can wish for! My daughter... more

My son started under Mamoda's care when he was 3 months old and has been with her for 2 months, and I couldn't be happier. As a first time mom, I was terrified at the thought of leaving my child somewhere when it was time for me to go back to work; however, Mamoda eased that fear and immediately took him in as a member of her own family. She runs her business professionally but ensures each child has special attention. The home is very clean and... more

We cannot say enough about how wonderful Mamoda has been. We are new parents and were very worried about finding the best day care for our son. Mamoda has been everything we could possibly hope for and she took care of us as much as she took care of Luke. We started our son with her when he was three months old and he just turned 10 months and it's been so nice having him in her care. She understood our worries in the beginning and put us at... more

Mamoda was amazing. She took care of our first son when he was about 6 weeks old. Due to an unexpected move, we could only keep Thomas with her for a month, but it was a wonderful experience. She is so calm and patient. I wish we could have taken her with us when we moved.

Mamoda entered our lives during a challenging time. Having just moved to the area and needing to find care in short order, she was there to meet our needs. Her flexibility and compassion have been such a calming presence in our lives. When our son is with Mamoda, we know that he is well taken of and in engaged with in a meaningful and loving way. He is so at ease with her that he does better with naps and potty learning at her place than he... more

We have been with Mamoda for just6 months but feel like we hit the jackpot in childcare. She has taken great care of our son and I feel very comfortable leaving my son with her. She is very caring and is very knowledgable in home remedies and recommendations on many 1st time mom questions.

My two children have been going to Mamoda for 6 months. She has been great! Very flexible, loving, nurturing and just a great person. Both of my children love her and are happy to see her everyday. She makes wholesome meals for them and they are thriving under her care. I would recommend her many times over. I am able to go to work and not worry about how my kids are fairing in her care.

I am happy to recommend Mamoda as a very caring provider. We began taking our son to her childcare at about 1.5 years. Mamoda helped to ease the transition for our son by being extremely loving and attentive to him at that time. She also communicated frequently with us at that time to let us know how he was doing. Though we moved on because we felt our son was ready for a more structured setting of a school at 2.5, he mentions how he wants to... more

My son has been cared for lovingly by Mamoda since he was 3 months old and we could not be happier. Mamoda is not only patient and kind, but clearly has a special gift with children. My son loves arriving to see her every morning and has a wonderful time each day playing with friends and learning new skills. As others mention in their reviews, We've really appreciated Mamoda's flexibility with drop off/pick up as well. Mamoda came highly... more

Mamoda is a wonderful child care provider. We received rave reviews when we found her and she has lived up to those reviews. Our son Ben started with her at 9 weeks old. He is always happy and smiling when we pick him up. Her facilities are comfortable, clean, and she clearly loves every child in her care. My husband calls her the "baby whisperer" because she has a very special connection to children.

Mamoda is a wonderful childcare provider and we feel fortunate that she cared for our daughter for 3 years! Mamoda was always very attentive, caring and provided a nurturing environment for our daughter. Our daughter thrived in her care and I would highly recommend Mamoda to anyone looking for childcare.

We have been taking our daughter to Mamoda since she was 8 weeks old. Mamoda was very understanding and patience in answering all our questions and requests. Our daughter loves going to Mamoda and seeing not only her but the other children as well. Mamoda takes the time to give each child the attention and care they need. We have been nothing but happy since we started.

Our daughter has been with Mamoda since she was 4 months old and we couldn't be happier (nor could she). This in-home daycare has been the perfect environment for new parents/new baby. Mamoda takes time at the beginning/end of each day to talk with each parent about their child's day. Each child receives a great amount of attention and love from Mamoda. My daughter is very excited to go each day. The best part of using Mamoda's services has... more

I am so pleased to recommend Mamoda. My son, Hunter, was with her for about 1.5 years just prior to starting pre-school. Mamoda is an excellent provider for babies and toddlers! She is kind and loving. Her center is clean and bright and she is always very concerned about the children for whom she provides care. Hunter always looked forward to being with her. Mamoda keeps to good childcare habits and routines and is very flexible with parents and... more
