CURRENT OPENINGS: All ages!
About Me:
Hi, parents! Welcome to Windham Manor Children's Place, my licensed in-home daycare and preschool in Silver Spring. MD! I’m a mother of 2 with 8 years of early childhood education experience, and I’m the owner and main caregiver of this family child care program.
I hold CPR and first-aid certifications and I am MAT trained as well (i.e. I can administer medication as needed). I also speak Amharic and at your request, I can expose your child to this foreign language (however, please note that my daycare is not a bilingual program).
Curriculum:
My curriculum consists of fun, educational activities such as reading, singing, identifying shapes, colors, farm animals, weather, days of the week, emotions, etc. Every day there is a different table activity that the children do that revolves around the theme of the month.
I also have various interactive playsets that encourage motor skills, and my walls are decorated with learning posters and painted with different colors. We have story and circle time, as well as arts and crafts. We also go outside twice a day when the weather is nice!
Program:
My daycare is open between 6:00 am and 6:00 pm, Monday through Friday. I can provide full-time care for infants as young as 6 weeks, as well as toddlers and preschoolers up to 5 years old.
For school-aged children, I can also offer before and after-school care for kids up to 12 years old (we are close to Jackson Road Elementary school, and we can provide transportation - the cost of transportation is already included in the before and after-school care tuition).
I am part of the USDA Food program and I serve lunch and snacks to all the children in my care (also included in the tuition).
Location:
Windham Manor Children's Place is located in the Windham Manor neighborhood of Silver Spring, MD (between White Oak and Colesville, near White Oak Middle School and Meadowood Park). My daycare is conveniently located for your commute since my home is just a few minutes away from Columbia Pike (route 29) and the Intercounty Connector (route 200).
Thank you so much for reading, please contact us through CareLuLu to schedule a visit and get your registration fee waived!

This caregiver is absolutely the BEST! She is warm, professional, and flexible. Our son has thrived in his physical and emotional development since he began with Windham Manor Children's Place. She genuinely loves our son and he loves her back. He has made friends of different ages, learns from the others, and is always happy to get there. She has also been very supportive and helpful to us first time parents, giving us lots of helpful feedback... more

We needed a before and after care place for our 5 year old who attends an afternoon pre-k but is not yet in kindergarten and this place has been a great fit for that! The majority of the kids are on the younger end, which we expected, but my daughter quickly became a "big sister" to all of them and talks about how much she loves everyone there all of the time. We appreciate how much care and affection/attention our daughter receives from the... more

We are so grateful to have found this Family Child Care! My son loves going to daycare. Everyday when I drop him off, he jumps from my arms to the caregiver's arms without any hesitation & a big smile on his face. Everyone is warm & friendly. My son is well taken care of & I rest assured that he is happy & loved there!

She is a second mom figure to them. We never worry because we know they are in good hands. We highly recommend her service to anyone looking for a dependable... more

It is an excellent daycare if you are looking for a small group daycare. The owner and her sister take very good care of babies as though they are their own babies. They look after babies with care and pay attention to details. Our baby is usually a happy one, but he is always happy to see her when we drop him off at daycare. We can tell that she gives him a lot of affection from the way he looks at her at the time of drop off and pick up.... more

The providers are angels on earth. They are loving and nurturing with the girls, which is so important to me. My little girls are always happy and excited going to daycare, which tells me that they have a lot of fun there. If you are searching for a trustworthy and caring provider, look no further!

My son is always happy and excited to go to this provider. He loves all the toys, other kids, but most importantly, the provider. She shows so much love to all the kids there, I couldn’t be happier or feel more safe leaving my son in her care.

We LOVE this daycare center - and our daughter loves it too! Our daughter has absolutely blossomed since starting at her daycare. We've seen her learn so much since starting and are excited to see her continue to see her grow. She is so thrilled to arrive each morning and is sad when she has to leave each evening because she has so much fun. The facilities are clean, stocked with lots of new toys and educational materials and safe.

The teachers are very friendly, my daughter loves them. She was comfortable around them since the first day! My daughter jumps in this provider's arms every morning and she’s greeted with a smile. It makes me feel a little more comfortable knowing she enjoys being there. This provider is very attentive and is sure to report to me any concerns she has during pick up.

This provider treats the children as her own. She welcomes them everyday with a smile and my child has a very easy transition. My 1st child goes to her. She has a very well run facility that I feel meets all the needs of children.
