About Me

With 30 years of experience in the daycare and childcare industry, I am deeply committed to creating nurturing, safe, and enriching environments for children to grow, learn, and thrive. My expertise spans early childhood development, individualized care, and fostering positive relationships with both children and their families. I am passionate about supporting each child’s unique potential through hands-on learning, play-based activities, and a warm, attentive approach.

I graduated from Mira Costa College with a certfication in Assistant Teaching, in December 2024. I also hold a CPR and First Aid certification, and I stay updated with the latest research in childhood development and early education best practices.

Throughout my career, I have worked in diverse daycare settings, from small family-run centers to larger educational organizations, consistently prioritizing children’s well-being and development.

In my role as a caregiver and early childhood educator, I focus on building strong partnerships with parents to ensure that each child receives the best possible care. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident and at ease knowing that their child is in capable hands. Whether it’s guiding toddlers through their first steps in socialization or supporting preschoolers as they develop critical thinking skills, I am dedicated to nurturing every child’s emotional, cognitive, and physical development.

I believe that play is a child’s natural way of learning, and I integrate this philosophy into everything I do. My approach combines structure and flexibility, ensuring that children are engaged in activities that foster creativity, curiosity, and problem-solving while promoting healthy emotional growth. By building a foundation of trust, respect, and fun, I aim to instill in each child a lifelong love of learning.

Every day in childcare is an opportunity to make a lasting, positive impact, and I am thrilled to be part of each child’s journey. I look forward to continuing to grow professionally and to partnering with families to provide the highest quality care and development for their little ones.

Experience and Certification

With over three decades of experience in childcare, our founder, Karla, brings a wealth of knowledge and dedication to every aspect of our daycare. A graduate of Mira Costa College with a certification in Assistant Teaching and a CPR and First Aid certification, Karla ensures your child is in the best hands.

Bilingual Care

We take pride in being a bilingual daycare, offering care in both English and Spanish. This not only supports children from diverse backgrounds but also fosters early language development, providing your child with a valuable skill for the future.

Fresh, Homemade Meals

Nutrition is a cornerstone of our care. We prepare wholesome breakfast, lunch, and snacks daily—never frozen, always fresh—so your child receives the energy and nutrients they need to grow and learn.

Engaging Activities

From educational sessions designed to develop critical thinking and social skills to daily playtime and hands-on creativity, our program is structured to balance learning with fun. Children enjoy outdoor activities, such as trips to parks (with parent consent), as well as in-house celebrations like birthday parties and our annual 'Get to Know' parent events.

Nurturing Environment for All Ages

We welcome children from infancy through kindergarten, tailoring care to each age group’s unique developmental needs. Whether guiding toddlers as they take their first social steps or preparing preschoolers for their educational journey, our family-centered approach ensures every child feels valued and supported.
