Colleen’s Daycare

Colleen has been wonderful. She cares for my 14 month old son, and has watched him since he was about 10 months old. I feel comfortable leaving him every day knowing she will give him the best of care, and that is an amazing feeling. I would recommend her again and again. She does a wonderful job… so much so that I make the drive from the far end of San Ramon to her house every morning and night to drop/​pick him up.

Colleen takes care of my 18 month old daughter. She is seriously, as good as it gets! I trust her completely with my daughter, which is ALOT for an obsessive compulsive, neurotic type-​A mom such as myself to say. I am always on a set schedule and like to keep my kids on a schedule as well, which Colleen does wonderfully. Colleen’s home is very clean and neat (which is something that definitely did not hold true for the other daycares that I visited). You can tell a lot about someone by the way they present themself and the way they maintain their home, and I had an instant-​good feeling about Colleen when I first met her in her home. Colleen is real, and tells you the truth versus whatever she thinks you want to hear, which means a lot nowadays.
My daughter is always happy and well-​rested when I pick her up, which is AMAZING, considering how far she has come. My daughter was (and still is) extremely attached to me, so much that it was difficult to leave her even with my husband for a short period of time. She would scream her head off, leaving me feeling guilty, even just going to use the restroom. On my daughter’s first day with Colleen, she actually napped. This is huge, considering that it is usually so difficult for her to nap when we are traveling and she is obviously in a new, strange place on her first day away. On her seventh day with Colleen, during the dropoff, she went to Colleen with ease, arms held out for Colleen to pick her up, with no tears. This was SO comforting for me, when that happened, I felt great, no guilt, and just total confidence in Colleen. My daughter obviously loves Colleen and so do I. I would definitely recommend Colleen’s Daycare to others.

I have know colleen for 10 years I went to school with her daughter she was like my second mom. So when I started having kids it was only natural for her to watch my girls when I went back to work. It was very hard for me to make the decision to go back to work as it is for any first time mom, but Colleen really was wonderful at making the transition comfortable for all of us! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a child care provider for there kids, especially if you want your kids to be in a loving family home daycare environment. She treats every child like them are part of her family.

Colleen’s daycare is GREAT! When I drop off my girls (5 years and 8 months) it really feels like I am dropping them off at «Grandma» Colleen’s. She treats my girls as if they were her own grandchildren, and enjoys when the kids call her grandma.
My girls go to Colleen’s from time to time as I work from home. Even when they have not been there for a while, my older daughter goes in, says good bye, and starts to play. My 8 month old gets a big smile on her face and leaps out of my arms to Colleen. It is such a great feeling for my girls to be comfortable and enjoy being there.
Colleen’s home is clean and organized. She keeps routines, while at the same time accommodating the childrens’ needs.
I highly recommend using «Grandma» Colleen’s Daycare.

She takes care of my 2.5 and a year old daughters. She’s so awesome. I don’t know what i would do without her.
We found her when my older daughter was 6 months old and started my second daughter when she was only 3 months old.
Even though we live in Danville, i drive 16 miles everyday to drop my kids off to her. Both my girls call her grandma and they love her.
She’s very clean and organized. She cares for them like they’re her own grand kids.
As a parent it’s such a great feeling to leave your children in a safe and very comfortable environment.
We love her and we wouldn’t change a thing.
