Recent Review:
Both my daughters attended SonShine daycare before we moved out of state. They attended from infant – toddler ages until we moved.
Firstly, I have to say that my children ate so much healthier there than theydo at home! Haha I was always happy with what Vicki fed them when they started eating solids. Before solids, she happily fed them my pumped milk and pureed food I supplied (because I was THAT mom with my first!).
Second, my children loved going to daycare and always had so much fun. They were given the care, socialization and structure they needed.
I loved receiving daily photos of them. Vicki always got the best pictures! I definitely miss it.
I highly recommend SonShine Daycare to all families who ask for daycare in or around Mission Viejo. I can’t say enough good things!…

My Philosophy:
Knowing that each child is a unique person and helping them to discover their full potential in every area of development is the task at hand. My home and my day revolves around each area of a child’s growth and development. I have centers set up to cover every area of a child’s developmental needs and plenty of space and time for what children learn best from, PLAY! I give each child the time and space for self discovery and discovering the world around them through personal experiences. They learn best by doing. I provide lots of hands on activities. The most rewarding part of this work for me is watching children dream big, reach for the stars, and attaining their goals. I provide the children many opportunities to use their imaginations and discover their own interest. We build on that and I believe in changing the environment to cater to the child’s interests.

OC Playschool

Starting at $55/day
Description:
The first five years of a child’s life are the most crucial for the development of their mental, physical, emotional, social, and cognitive skills. Children learn about the world around them through play. Whenoffered developmentally appropriate activities, opportunities for discovery and exploration are encouraged. It also helps to promote self-esteem and build life skills necessary for growth and development. Our mission at PLAYSCHOOL is to provide the tools and environment that foster self confidence and a life-long interest in learning.
We provide only the best quality care that you can expect from a preschool environment. Our program uses Developmentally Appropriate Practice and will enable children to learn at their own individual pace through play and discovery. At PLAYSCHOOL, we believe in a holistic and developmental approach to education. This means that we believe in fostering the growth and development of the whole child. We want children to graduate from our program with a love of learning, an excitement to go to school, and the social and emotional tools and skills to successfully interact with and engage their peers and any adults.
Our child-led curriculum grows with your child and becomes more advanced as they master more difficult concepts. It is based on things that your child is interested in from their natural environment. This makes learning relevant and exciting to them. Children learn naturally through everyday experiences with people, places and things. Your child will have the opportunity to explore projects and exercise curiosity about fun, engaging and interesting ideas and concepts and learn through physical and sensory experiences, discovery, play, and trial and error.
Play is children’s work, and we firmly believe that. We genuinely care for each and every one of our children, and enjoy seeing them grow, thrive, and develop through our program. We look forward to being a part of you and your child’s life and helping your child build the best foundation for a successful future. Thank you for sharing your children with us….
