About

CURRENT OPENINGS: For children 2 and up only! We also have specific part-time spots for 2 years old and above on Fridays from 8:00am to 6:00pm. Next full-time infant opening is anticipated in November 2025!
Hi parents, welcome to Great Oak Square Children's Place, my home-based daycare and preschool in Falls Church, VA. My child care facility is located in the Stafford Kelly community, in the Great Oak Square neighborhood. I’m located right off Annandale Rd and have easy access to major roads, making your commute very convenient: Hillwood Ave (route 338), S Washington St (US-29), and Arlington Blvd (US-50).
About Me
I’m the owner and main caregiver of this quality child care and early childhood education program. I’m a licensed provider with 24 years of professional experience and CPR & First-aid certifications. As a mom of 5, I can relate to your concerns when it comes to finding a nurturing and safe learning environment for your little one.
Program
Great Oak Square Children's Place is open all throughout the year from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Monday through Friday. Before and after school care also both available for school-age kids, up to 12 years old (my home is close to Graham Road Elementary School and Timber Lane Elementary School). I offer full-time and part-time care for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers between the age of 3 months and 5 years old. I’m part of the USDA Food Program, and I provide lunch and snacks to all children in my care (both meals are already included in the tuition). Due to possible allergies, I run a peanut and tree-nut free environment.
Philosophy:
My daycare uses the Play-based teaching philosophy to make learning more fun. However, my young students learn more than just the ABCs. I teach manners and how to use magic words such as "please" and "thank you." They exercise and have outside play. I can also teach foreign languages such as Urdu, Hindi, and Spanish in addition to English (however, I don’t run a bilingual or language immersion daycare). Thanks for reading my profile, please contact me through CareLuLu to schedule a visit. I would love to meet your family :)

We have been so happy with her care and feel lucky to have found her. We have been with her since our daughter was 14 weeks old. She clearly loves our daughter like her own, and has also been so helpful to us as first-time parents. We like that she intentionally limits the number of children in her care, and feel that everyone gets her attention. Our daughter is always excited to see her and the other children and we have always felt that she... more

As a young family, we absolutely love her. More importantly, our son loves her. She provides a strong level of familiarity and safety for all the children she cares for during the day. She has the perfect location, her home is always clean and safe for all the children and we know that our son has learned so much during his time from her teaching. Lastly, we know that she has a long withstanding history with her parents and children. We hope to... more

I’ve been sending my little one since she was 4 months old and you can tell how much she enjoys being at daycare. The owner and her family are super caring and loving. I have no worries about her safety, as this daycare is clean and trustworthy. Highly recommend if you’re a first time parent or have an infant!

This daycare is a wonderful place. it’s very welcoming, clean, and safe for the kids. Faith is always excited to go to daycare and she always has a smile when I pick her up afterwards. The provider herself is a wonderful lady and I can tell Faith really likes her. I’m grateful for the daycare because I know Faith will be happy and safe there.

This provider is absolutely amazing. She cares for our son with such compassion and flexibility to adjust to his schedule. Very knowledgeable and experienced with all ages. Would recommend to everyone. With COVID-19 still very active we would like to see an extra level of sanitation and cleanliness with a little more space to stay distant but we understand that can be hard task while caring for the children. Would have been 5 stars otherwise. We... more

This provider has been so great with my daughter. Since the first day my daughter met her, she was comfortable. She enjoys going there to spend time with this provider. This provider always makes sure to keep me updated with how she is doing. I know my daughter is happy with the care she gets.
