Looking for Spanish Immersion Day Care

[Anonymous]

I am looking for a Spanish immersion day care for a six-month old infant in NW DC or close to Takoma Park or Silver Spring. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

My son is 2 and he has attended Little Stars Daycare since he was 9 mo, a home care, in the 16th st. NW area near Carter Barron Park. I can't say enough about how awesome this daycare is and how fantastic it's been for us thus far.

Little Stars provides a full Spanish immersion program and my little guy speaks both English and Spanish perfectly. There are wonderful, warm and loving providers there and the children truly thrive in this environment. The home care is ran by Marilyn Gutierrez and three other providers. There is a separate infant room and the toddlers have a large playroom on the lower level. There is a backyard where the children can play safely and Marilyn provides lots of toys. There are scheduled field trips to the pumpkin patch, fire stations, zoo, just to name a few and a weekly visit to the library for story time.

Little Stars also does a great job of creating a community with the parents and hosting holiday events for the families. It is a diverse and wonderful environment.

Here's the good news: Little Stars is expanding and opening a beautiful little center on Colorado and 14th St, NW this fall. If you are interested in a spanish program, warm loving environment, and a truly caring provider with years of experience, I would recommend you contact Marilyn at 202-441-6227.

Kids Corner in Kalorama is Spanish immersion.

The teachers at Magic Beans in Adams Morgan (owner is Giin) also speak Spanish to the children. Also in Adams Morgan, Lanier Lullabies is Spanish speaking as well. Lanier is a day care center and Magic Beans is a home daycare. There is also David's Star -- but here the teachers seem to only speak Spanish, not English.

This sounds like an infomercial.

I would just do a nanny share with a nanny who speaks native spanish.

Very happy De Colores parent here! They are at 3rd & Sheridan NW, border of Manor Park and Takoma. WONDERFUL program - my son has been in the infant program for one year and we are thrilled. They have been mentioned on this board before - you can do a search for more info.

www.decoloresdc.com.

I've also seen Mi Palacio highly recommended, which is in Takoma. Also on this board.

De Colores does a school-year enrollment process - the next batch start in September. There is likely a waitlist, but you could call to check.

My child also attends DeColores. She's been their fit two years now. We love it.
