Quality Child Care That Nurtures, Educates, and Inspires

Every parent wants to find child care that feels like a natural extension of home—a place where their little one is safe, loved, and genuinely thriving. At Talita’s Daycare, we’ve been providing exceptional child care services in San Mateo since 2015, creating a nurturing environment where children develop the skills, confidence, and curiosity they need for lifelong success.

Our child care program goes beyond basic supervision. We offer a comprehensive early childhood education experience that supports every aspect of your child’s development—from their first smile to their first day of kindergarten. Located conveniently at 201 36th Ave, San Mateo, CA 94403 (near Hillsdale Mall), our licensed home-based child care facility combines the warmth of family care with the educational structure of a professional early learning center.

More Than Just Supervision—It's a Foundation for Life

Quality child care encompasses much more than keeping children safe while parents work. According to the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), high-quality child care programs actively promote children’s learning and development through intentional teaching practices, nurturing relationships, and developmentally appropriate activities.

Individualized Attention

We recognize that every child develops at their own pace and has unique needs, interests, and learning styles. Our low child-to-caregiver ratios ensure personalized care and one-on-one interaction.

Holistic Development

We nurture the whole child, supporting growth in social, emotional, physical, intellectual, and creative domains simultaneously.

Safe & Nurturing Environment

Children thrive when they feel secure. Our child care facility provides a warm, predictable, and emotionally supportive atmosphere where children can explore confidently.

Family Partnership

We believe parents are children’s first and most important teachers. Our child care approach includes open communication, daily updates, and collaborative decision-making.

Play-Based Learning

Young children learn best through play. Our curriculum integrates educational concepts into engaging, hands-on activities that feel natural and fun.

Comprehensive Care for Every Stage of Early Childhood

We provide specialized child care programs tailored to the unique developmental needs of infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. Each program is designed to maximize learning, growth, and happiness during these critical early years.

Infant Child Care (3-18 Months)

The first 18 months of life represent a period of extraordinary development. Our infant child care program provides the gentle, responsive care your baby needs to build secure attachments, develop motor skills, and begin exploring the world around them.

Toddler & Preschool Child Care (3-5 Years)

Toddlers and preschoolers are naturally curious, energetic, and eager to assert their independence. Our child care program for this age group channels that energy into productive learning experiences while fostering self-confidence, social skills, and kindergarten readiness.

Nutritious Meals That Support Development

Good nutrition is essential for growing bodies and developing brains. We provide balanced, organic meals and snacks featuring fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy dairy options. Our menus are developed with input from licensed nutritionists and accommodate all dietary restrictions, allergies, and cultural preferences.

Transparent Communication & Parent Partnership

We believe effective child care requires strong partnerships between caregivers and families. You’ll receive daily updates on your child’s activities, meals, naps, and developmental progress. We also offer regular parent-teacher conferences, maintain an open-door policy, and welcome parent involvement in our program.
