    About us

    At Oliva Day Care, we believe all children are unique. This means we strive to help each child learn according to his or her individual skills and interests rather than relying upon a one-size-fits-all plan. Our goal is to help our children celebrate their differences in a safe environment that promotes awareness, self-confidence, and personal growth.

    Enrichment opportunities are provided through educational activities and games, designed to put the fun in learning. Supervised play time allows freedom to explore special interests and develop interpersonal skills with other children. An enclosed outdoor playground lets kids be kids safely.

    Our founder and director, Vilma Oliva, has an education in early childhood development and over 20 years experience. She is bilingual in Spanish and English. Her team is certified and CPR trained.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How can I help my child transition to day care?

    We recommend that you visit our facility with your child prior to enrollment to become familiar with our facility and staff. We urge you to stay a while on the first or subsequent day(s) to get a feel for our program and to help ease the transition period. However, if you cannot, we understand. It is our job to help your child feel comfortable while in our care, and we take that job seriously.

    What are your hours?

    Open:
    Monday-Friday
    7am-5pm, unless special arrangements have been made.
    Closed:

    Spring Break (March)

    Can anyone pick up my child?

    No. Safety is our priority. Only those listed on your child’s information form are permitted to pick up or visit your child. Should you need someone that is not on the form to pick up that day, you will need to notify us at least two hours in advance.

    What should my child bring to day care?

    When children arrive, they must leave their personal belongings in their assigned cubbies: extra clothes, toys, and other things that do not belong in the house, then they must wash their hands and go to the play area, and they will continue doing the activities that appear on the board.

     

    We are sponsored by a meal program (CCSWF) and offer three healthy meals a day: Morning Snack, Lunch, and Afternoon Snack.

     

    For children allergic to any food, families must tell the operator (Vilma) to fill out a form that must be signed by the pediatrician.
