CURRENT OPENINGS: All ages!
Welcome to Glenallan Children's House, my small home daycare in Silver Spring!
I’m the owner and caregiver with 12 years of experience. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Early Childhood Education and an Associate's Degree in Business Administration. I’m also a mother of three, and I am CPR and first-aid certified. I care for infants as young as 4 weeks, and for toddlers and preschoolers up to 5 years old. I also provide before and after school care for older kids, up to 12 years old.
My family child care program offers various flexible options to accommodate working families. I can provide full-time daycare, part-time daycare and drop-in care if you only have occasional needs. My daycare hours are from 7:00 am to 5:30 pm, Monday through Friday, and I provide peanut-free snacks to the children in my care (included in the tuition).
Glenallan Children's House is located near the Glenallan Elementary School in Silver Spring, off Randolph Rd. We’re also close to the John F. Kennedy High School, the Glenmont Shopping Center, and the Glenmont Metro Station. Please call or email to schedule a tour, I look forward to meeting your family!

We joined this daycare when our daughter was 11 months old. As a first time mother who had stayed at home with our child until then, I was very nervous to leave her. Those concerns were quickly allayed when we first met and interviewed the owner. Our daughter instantly seemed at home.
A year and a half later, the staff has played an integral role in the development and growth of our child. From the beginning, they have helped to create and... more

We have loved having our toddler at this day care! The providers are so caring and attentive, and they offer a great mix of play/fun, outdoor time, structure and learning. Our son has grown and learned so much since starting there almost two years ago and has had a blast every day. We always feel confident that he is in loving, capable and safe hands there and recommend 100%!

I'm so happy I was able to find this provider for my daughter. My daughter has been attending this daycare for 6 months and she loves her teachers, she runs towards them with a big smile every morning. I was very nervous at first, but with time I was able to trust them and see the way they care for my daughter with much love and kindness. The provider is always open to listen and reassure me if I have any concerns or questions and that says a... more

This provider is amazing! I was nervous about leaving my 6 month old when I had to return to work, but she made it so easy! Now my son is 1 and he has a giant smile on his face at drop off when he sees her. He is clearly happy there and the love she has for the children is so evident. I don't hesitate for one moment leaving my child there.

The owner and her team are amazing and so welcoming. They are truly like our extended family and my child (infant) absolutely loved this daycare.
One of my biggest worries when looking for childcare (like most first-time working moms) was finding a safe, and loving environment for my child. Once we met her we were no longer worried. With her and her daycare we felt a sense of genuine warmth and commitment to children and their development.... more
Response from the provider:

We feel INCREDIBLY lucky to have found this daycare provider (and her wonderful team) for our son. He gets excited as we pull up every morning and can’t wait to go inside. He’s made wonderful developmental progress on every front since starting with her six months ago, and it’s clear that she views childcare as not just a job but a passion / calling. The peace of mind we get from leaving him in such capable hands everyday is priceless.

The provider and the other teachers give a lot of love and personal attention to the children. Our son had trouble taking a bottle at first, but they worked with him until he got it (and invited me to come nurse at lunch times in the meantime). They were also willing to learn to use our cloth diapers (pockets), which they immediately mastered. We toured 6 different home daycares and none of them felt right until we met this provider. We are so... more

Our 2/y/o daughter has been with this provider since she was an infant, and LOVES this home daycare. The operator and staff treat her like family, and the environment is the most loving we've had of any care option we've experienced with our three children. She's learning above her developmental level, and is nearly potty trained at 2 thanks to the efforts of her caregivers. Highly recommended.

This provider is an amazing teacher! Our daughter has been attending her daycare since she was 4 months old, we couldn't be happier with the care that she gets. The daycare space is bright and clean. This provider has a wealth of experience working with young children and the results are clear with our young daughter. We feel very lucky to have found T. and her daycare.

This is an amazing teacher. Our daughter started with her at 4 months old and we have been very impressed with this provider. and her daycare. The daycare space is bright and clean. She has an immense amount of experience working with young children and we clearly see the results of that in our daughter's development. We could not be happier with the care that our daughter receives.

My child enjoys going to the daycare. I have peace of mind everyday as, she, not only has a chance to do her homework and get help from this provider with the tutoring, but she also gets to play with the other kids. She looks forward to going everyday. Thank you to this provider's hardwork and dedication. Bintou
