Takoma Park/SS child care needed immediately

[Anonymous]

Quite unexpectedly we find ourselves moving from VA to MD in less than a month! I have two children 3 1/2 and 9 mths who will need full day care, no later than July 1st but probably starting in June! Any recommendations are welcome - daycares, in-homes and nannies will be considered. I would like to have them in the same place, but it is not necessary. Please help!

Thank you!

I'm guessing they are full, but I love Takoma Park Cooperative Nursery School.

We didn't find much center wise for under 2. I know there are
In homes but we haven't used one.

Our twins are 2.5 and for over a year now they have been attending daycare at Mi Palacio, directed by Marisol Espinosa. Marisol has been running the daycare center out of her home, but is opening a center in the basement of Trinity Episcopal Church on Piney Branch Road in Takoma DC in early April, and there are openings available for new friends to join us.

We have been very happy at Mi Palacio, and our children are thriving in the warm, caring environment. Our kids go outside at least twice per day for walks in the neighborhood or to play at a nearby park. They also go to the neighborhood library regularly for story time. They do arts and crafts, story time, and they have circle time with Spanish songs our children frequently sing at home. At age 2.5, our children speak Spanish about as well as they speak English, which has been really neat to see.

Details:
- The center has openings for children between the ages of three months to five years old
- Full Spanish immersion program
- Hours of operation are 7:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M.
- New location: 7005 Piney Branch Rd., N.W. Washington, D.C 20012 (basement of Trinity Episcopal Church, a.k.a. "stone church".) The entrance to the daycare is on Dahlia Street. The new center is about 3 blocks from the Takoma Park Metro.
