CURRENT OPENINGS: For children 2 and up only!

Welcome to Pleasant Valley Children's Den, our home-based daycare and preschool in Catonsville, MD. Our child care facility is right off Pleasant Valley Dr and Rolling Rd in the Woodbridge Valley neighborhood. Your daily commute to work will be very convenient since we have easy access to these major roads: Baltimore National Pike (US-40), the Baltimore Beltway (I-695), and I-70.
About Us:
I’m the owner and main caregiver of this nurturing child care and high-quality early education program. I’m a licensed provider with 18 years of experience and an Associate's Degree in Education.
I run my daycare with my assistant who has 4 years of experience and an Associate's Degree in Psychology. Together, we steer the operations of our daycare with a shared commitment to fostering a supportive and enriching environment for your children.
Just like you, I am also a parent and a mother to three wonderful children. This personal experience has provided me with firsthand insights into the world of child care. I can also relate to your concerns when it comes to finding safe daycare for your little one
Program & Facility:
Pleasant Valley Children's Den is open throughout the year from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm, Monday through Friday. We can provide full-time and part-time care for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers between the age of 3 months and 5 years old. I can also offer before school care for school-age kids up to 12 years old (our daycare is near Woodbridge Elementary School).
Peanut and tree-nut free snacks are already included in the tuition and provided to all kids attending my program. In addition to English, I also speak Punjabi and upon request, I can teach your child this foreign language (our daycare is not a bilingual program though). Our child care space is well furnished and decorated to make it engaging for children. We have age-appropriate toys, books, puzzles as well as learning blocks.
Please contact us through CareLuLu to schedule a visit. We’re excited about meeting your family in person :)

They have been such a blessing to us. my daughter Meira started with them in Nov 2023. They are both so warm and loving, they are like family to us. My daughter has learned more compassion and love from them, and has become so nurturing. The facility is clean and full of toys and books and everything you could want to keep your child learning and growing. they allow her to discover her world in her own but in a nurturing and supportive, safe... more

Finding this provider was a breath of fresh air in my child care search. She is very kind and nurturing of the children. She takes her time with the children making for a fun and enriching learning environment, and has pride in her work! Within a few short weeks, I could already see the growth and development of my daughter. My daughter has learned to play independently and with others, sharing, and is even responding/cooing to yes/no questions.... more

The caregiver is an angel from heaven! Her loving and caring nature is everything I could ever ask for being a first time mom with a son who was in need of a child care teacher/caretaker. My son gets so excited when I tell him we’re going to see her for daycare. I can see that my son is loved by her and her daughter and that’s very comforting and reassuring. They are very easy to communicate with when needing to alter pick up or drop off times... more

This provider is so loving and sweet. We trust her completely with our little boy and he is always smiling when he sees her. They take great care of him and are so accommodating to our parenting needs/preferences and our work schedule. It’s not easy with both of us working full time but she certainly makes it easier.

We have been with this facility since our son was 8 months old. The experience has been wonderful. It is a caring, fun atmosphere where kids can learn and be loved. Our son is very happy to be here. We could not have asked for a better experience. We are so grateful and would highly recommend to any parent!

This provider has been great! We have our nine month old enrolled with her, and she is extremely caring and just great with kids. We can tell that our daughter enjoys being there, and has picked up some milestones during her care. We can tell she gets a lot of practice moving around, and has become a lot more mobile (crawling and pulling herself up). This provider is very accommodating on timing and very easy to coordinate with. I highly... more

My son always has a smile on his face when he gets to daycare in the mornings. He loves this provider, and she clearly cares about all of the little ones in her care.

We strongly recommend this daycare provider. She has been wonderful to our son, who she looked after from when he was 11 months until 19 months. She has given him the care and attention he needs, such as accommodating a dairy sensitivity and being careful to wash instead of use wipes on his sensitive diaper area. She has been very flexible with her hours and our requests, and is very communicative about how he is doing. Her daughter is also... more

I am absolutely thrilled with this place!!
It is evident upon meeting her. My son is 2 months and I was very skeptical about sending him to daycare due to him being so small. So I did as most parent's do and began searching for the BEST possible provider and was thankful that CareLuLu recommended this place.
The owner is very attentive to my son, she asked for a schedule for his feeding and resting (most providers don't ask), her home is kept... more
