About

CURRENT OPENINGS: All ages! We also have specific part-time spots for any age on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Saddle Creek Children's Den is a licensed in-home daycare and preschool in Burtonsville, MD. My child care facility is located in the Saddle Creek neighborhood, near McKnew Local Park, McKnew Rd and Cedar Tree Dr. Your daily commute to work will be hassle-free since I have easy access to Sandy Spring Rd (route 198), Columbia Pike (US-29), Maryland State Route 200, and the I-95.
About Me:
I'm the owner and main caregiver of this charming family child care and preschool program. Like you, I’m also a parent, a mother to 3 children (my eldest is a 20 year-old who’s in the military, my second is 19 years old, and the youngest is 10 years old). I can certainly relate to your child care needs and concerns. I create a safe and happy environment where they can feel loved! I’ve been in the early childhood education field for 11 years. I was a substitute teacher for 5 years for another licensed daycare and a caregiver at a church daycare for 6 years. I’m very passionate about child care and really enjoy working with kids. I want to nurture them and help them develop valuable skills at an early age. Your little one will be in good hands at all times because I’m CPR & First-aid certified.
Program:
Saddle Creek Children's Den is open all throughout the year from Monday through Friday between 7:00 and 6:00 pm. I follow the Play-based learning approach to make learning more fun and exciting. In addition to English, I can also teach your child Amharic upon request (note that my daycare is not a bilingual program, but this is still a wonderful opportunity for your child to be exposed to another language and culture, if you wish). I provide full-time and part-time care for infants as young as 3 months, as well as toddlers and preschoolers up to 6 years old. I serve morning and afternoon snacks to all kids attending my program (both included in the tuition). I also maintain a peanut and tree-nut free environment to avoid possible allergies. I’m excited about meeting you and your little one. Please contact us through CareLuLu to schedule a visit!

We have been at this daycare for almost a year now, and my daughter has been SO happy here!! My daughter can be quite shy with anyone other than me and my husband, but she quickly took a liking to her, and now gets so excited every time we pull up to drop her off for the day. The caregiver is incredibly kind and loving, and has become like family for my daughter. I love having peace of mind knowing my daughter is safe and so well cared for while... more

My child has been attending this daycare for over a year. She is a wonderful daycare provider and goes above and beyond to meet the needs of the children. My child has autism and she does such an amazing job with her and accommodates her needs. I feel at ease when knowing my child is with her.
Response from the provider:
Thank you for the review.

My son has been attending this daycare for the last 6 months. She has made him feel right at home from his first day, and it shows. He is always happy to see her when I drop him off. She is great with communication and has always treated our family fairly and with respect. We can't say enough good things about this daycare!

Thank you for taking care of my son who truly sees you as mum. The owner pays attention and takes great care of every child like her own. I always feel settled when I leave my son with her each day. May the Lord continue to provide strength to fulfill his will in raising future generations.

My daughter has been going to this daycare since April. The staff offers a friendly, kind and caring approach to looking after my daughter. The daily activities help to develop my daughter's learning as well as lots of playtime. They love her and treat her as their own and every morning she wakes up super excited to go to "school" because she wants to see her teachers and friends. Their communication is wonderful and are always there to help... more

She is one of the best caregivers. My daughter is always excited to see her in the morning. She is very professional, patient and caring. Her place is very safe and secure. My daughter has learnt a lot ever since she started going to her. I am happy with my decision of enrolling my daughter in her program. I highly recommend her.

I know the caregiver as a friend long before I became a mother and I used to be impressed by how patient, dedicated, attentive and caring she is with her kids. Hence, I didn't even think of any other places to send my kids whenever we needed. My son(now first grader) is so attached to her to the extent of calling her as his second mom. Spending time with her gave him the chance to learn a lot including the Amharic language. We still send (part... more
