Thanks for your post.

As the founder/director of a new Spanish Immersion Childcare Program in NW DC close to Silver Spring and Takoma Park I invite you to visit www.decoloresdc.com to learn more about the program.

I started the De Colores Spanish Immersion Program because I had great difficulty finding high quality Spanish immersion childcare for my own daughter, who is now three. I am a native of Buenos Aires, Argentina and taught art for several years at Centronia/DC Bilingual Public Charter School in Washington DC prior launching De Colores.

I've taken a two step approach to starting the business: first, I licensed my home for day care and have completely remodeled the lower level (with direct street access and private entrance) to provide care while we prepare our larger site.

The larger site will be at 6216 Third Street NW, Washington DC (close to Takoma park and one block from the Takoma Community Center) and will accommodate approximately 20 children, ages 0-5. We are just beginning the build-out and licensing process and hopefully will be fully licensed and ready to go by early Summer 2008 (although everything is subject to the DC Inspection Process, which in my experience, is a bit unpredictable).

In the meantime, I am providing care at my fully licensed and insured home-based facility. My assistant and I currently care for two infants (ages 8 and 10 months) full-time and we are joined by my three-year old daughter after 3:00 pm. My daughter currently attends the Latin American Bilingual Montessori School on Military Road.

At this time, I have two openings for toddlers, who according to DC regulations, must be 30 months or older. If you're interested in 1:1 or 1:2 Spanish immersion with a focus on the arts for your toddler, this is a great opportunity.

I am also accepting names the enrollment list for the larger facility.

Once again, all activities, instruction, music, etc, are conducted in Spanish. Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions or to arrange a visit. Email is the best way to get in contact with me.

Thanks in advance for your interest.
