OPENINGS: We are full at this time.
Welcome to Wheaton Forest Park Playhouse, my licensed family child care and preschool program in Silver Spring, MD. My home is near Wheaton Forest Park and right off University Blvd W (route 193). I also have easy access to Georgia Ave (route 97), Dennis Ave, and Sligo Creek Pkwy, so your daily commute to work will be very convenient.

About Me:
I’m the owner and main caregiver of this nurturing and high-quality early childhood education. As a mom of 2 and a licensed child care provider with 25 years of experience, I assure you that your child is safe under my care. I’m also CPR & First-aid certified, as well as MAT trained so I can administer medications.
Program:
Wheaton Forest Park Playhouse is open as early as 6:00 am to 5:30 pm, Monday through Friday. Please note that our standard hours are 7:00am - 5:30pm with not more than 10 hours of care provided each day, but we can open as early as 6:00am for an additional fee. My program offers various flexible options, such as full-time and part-time care for newborn babies, as well as toddlers through preschoolers up to 5 years old.
For families only looking for occasional child care, I can provide drop-in care. I also offer before and after school care for school-age children up to 12 years old (my home is near Glen Haven Elementary School). All kids attending my program are served with peanut and tree-nut free lunch and snacks and these are already included in the tuition.
Curriculum:
My little students enjoy participating in extra-curricular activities, such as yoga, exercise & fitness, and baking. My assistant speaks Spanish and in addition to English, she can teach your child this foreign language (my daycare is not a bilingual program though). The community park is very close to my house and if the weather is nice, I bring the kids there where we spend our outdoor playtime.
I teach my little students ABCs, numbers, shapes, how to read, and how to spell their names. I also have a coloring activity and a learning worksheet every day. For before and after school kids, I help them with their homework.

She is honestly amazing! Her facility is neat and clean. She's very informative on my daughter's progress and gives informative advice on how to improve her development. My daughter is in her clingy stage as of right now, however, she enjoys spending time with her.

I am able to go work knowing that my son is being well cared for and safe. My son, who has special needs (autism) has been going to this daycare for approximately seven years. The play area and bathroom are always clean and well-furnished. The caregiver follows through on specialized instructions. My son always looks calm and happy when I pick him up at the end of the day.

Over the years I have know the owner and she has been a caregiver to my child and nieces and nephews. I recommend her highly, the environment is safe, loving and educational and she goes above beyond for both child and parent.

The owner is a very caring care provider. I would ask daily about my child and she would give positive and negative reports based off my child’s behavior and give pointers about how some issues can be resolved and she is also very big on safety as well. She gives a variety of activities for my child
