Our daughter Hilsa joined Sawsan's Daycare since September 2017. She has improved SO much in the past year in the caring hands of Sawsan and Salah (Sawsan's husband). First of all, Sawsan kept her place very organized and clean, so that kids rarely get sick at all. Hilsa only got sick once in the past year at Sawsan's. They shampoo their carpets at least once a week. I am amazed at how clean they are! Before joining Sawsan's Daycare, Hilsa was in a daycare center between the age of 6 months to 2 years old, and she was sick every other week at that daycare center. There were too many germs from a large number of kids, and cross infections are very common. We also don't like that teachers at the daycare center changed so rapidly, by the time that the kids get used to a teacher, soon after they get another new teacher, which is very hard for kids to adjust. My husband and I constantly need to take days off to look after the sick child. It was very time consuming and financially costly. We are very happy with Sawsan's Daycare on how clean their facility was inside the house, and in their backyard playground. The small student to teacher ratio (5:1) made a huge difference as well on the kids. Hilsa is well loved by her teachers and classmates. She is always happy, and often doesn't want to leave when we pick her up. Second, Sawsan is a amazing cook. She prepares delicious nutritious foods for the kids everyday. Hilsa loves the food at school so much that sometimes she doesn't want to eat what I made at home, which is great, since I am not a good cook anyway. Many times when I went pick up my daughter, I smelled the awesome delicious aroma in the house and really hope that I was invited for dinner. It's that good! Third, Salah reads to the kids every morning after breakfast and in the afternoon after nap. They do morning circles and talk about the calendar, eg. month, date, day of the week, weather. Hilsa has developed a great interest in reading books, and she would even do quiet readings on her own at home. Hilsa also learned all her alphabets, colors, shapes, and numbers 1-10 in the past year at Sawsan's Daycare. They have many educational toys for the kids to play, such as puzzles, big legos, kitchen, cars, etc. Kids can always find something they would like to play with. Sawsan also taught the kids some simple yoga moves, and Hilsa enjoys that as well. We are very glad to see Hilsa's improvements while at Sawsan's. We were very lucky to have Sawsan and Salah to be Hilsa's teachers. They prepared Hilsa so well for the upcoming Pre-K program in the fall. We highly recommend Sawsan's Daycare to our friends and anyone in the neighborhood.

Sawsan and Salah are like family to us, we are so grateful for them. We put our names on their waiting list 9 months prior to the end of my maternity leave when we were living in FL. The available reviews were enough for me reach out and join their waiting list. Little did we know how incredibly lucky we were to find them. When we moved back- we toured many childcare centers in the Quincy area and met another in home care provider. Nothing compared to our first meeting at Sawsan’s. We felt instantly at home. The love and care they provided to our son from that day on is unbeatable. They truly take in every child as if he/she was their own. They provide a loving environment, that is fun, stimulating, and academic. Their family values matched our own by making sure he was active and having fun, socializing and learning. Our son LOVED seeing them everyday. I cannot have imagined going back to work without Sawsan’s daycare in our lives. They kept us in the loop with everything he was up to during the day. We felt like we had true partners in raising him. As if all this wasn’t enough….. when our son started eating solid foods he got to partake in the weekly menu provided by Sawsan. He was being introduced to the healthiest of meals. My husband and I would often joke that we wanted to go join him for lunch. Our only regret was finding our first home so far south of them. Even after our move, we continued to drive an hour in rush hour traffic 2 X a day for 6 more months, just so our son could be in their care. They are truly family and we look forward to keeping them in our son's life even if he can’t go see them everyday anymore.

One of the hardest things for ...

One of the hardest things for me to search for was looking for a care provider for my son. Juggling between working, studying for my master’s degree, and residency, it was extremely difficult to leave my first newborn with a complete stranger for 10 hours every day. Trust can be a big issue, and finding someone who is trustworthy to look after your most precious valuable is not an easy task. I can say with utmost confidence that Sawsan and Salah have my complete trust and allow me to be away from my son for many hours with peace of mind. Sawsan and Salah cared for my son since he was a newborn, and I cannot thank them enough for their unconditioned love and great care. Having my sonas a first newborn, I am grateful to Sawsan for her motherly tips and advice on his health and discipline. I sense my son's anticipation and eager every morning on our way to Sawsan’s daycare. I also look forward to picking him up at the end of the day and listen to his enthusiastic description of his full exciting day. I appreciate the healthy and organic food they provide, storytelling time, outdoor activity, projects and puzzles they prepare, and dancing time they have throughout the day. They also provide projects and programs that stimulate the children’s individual thinking, creativity, and problem solving. Their daycare has helped my son to be outgoing and very social. I’m proud to say that my son speaks clearly, knows all the shapes, colors, numbers, and nursery songs and has also completed potty training within a very short period of time with their help. In a family oriented atmosphere, my son has not only been in a playful, fun daycare, but also have been well educated and gained manners at an early age. By the end of each day, I pick up my son well-fed, clean, and has spent a wonderful time. I have known them for almost 3 years, and I can say with all honesty that I cannot find a better place for my son to be safe, healthy, and happy. Sawsan and Salah, with all my heart I cannot thank you enough for your kind care and great support!

My husband and I are so gratef...

My husband and I are so grateful to have found Sawsan and Salah! They have watched our son Teddy since he was 4 months old. They made my transition back to work easier than I could have imagined. Our son Teddy looks forward to seeing them every morning and has a huge smile on his face when we walk up to the door. They take such great care of our son and the communication they provide is unmatched. They provide the kids with a safe, clean, fun environment for the kids to learn and explore. They have lots of toys, books, and educational activities and encourage outside play and music time. The kids at the daycare are very lucky to have the most delicious healthy food to eat. I am amazed with the level of professionalism and care that my son receives. They truly love each and every child. We feel blessed to have our son in their care and could not have asked for anything more.
