East Garrison Maya Child Care - Marina, California

Marie Wolf

Our (almost) 4 year old has been attending East Garrison Maya Childcare for about a year now and our 14 month old has been there for about 3 months. We are so grateful to have found this excellent daycare! Farhana and her team are loving and gentle and are excellent caregivers. They have ample education, training, and experience in early childhood development. They use structured lesson plans but maintain a close and nurturing environment. My children love them and their peers like family. They’ve cultivated a beautiful little community. I have experienced many caregivers who do a fine job but you can tell that it’s just a job for them. For Farhana, it’s clear that caring for children is her passion. We could not feel more fortunate to trust her with the care of our little ones.

The center is very well kept and thoughtfully organized with little ones in mind. They prioritize the health, wellness, and safety of the children. The hours of operation are excellent and allow us the flexibility we need for two working parents. They are excellent communicators, offering pictures, videos, and written (text) updates throughout the day. Anyone who is nervous about leaving their babies for the first time can rest at ease! They could not be in better hands!

Starting daycare was such a big step for us, but Ms. Farhana and her wonderful team made it feel so much easier. I can tell my little one is in such good hands and truly cared for. The place is always spotless, which really puts me at ease, and their curriculum is amazing. I’ve seen such a difference in my child’s social and motor skills since starting here. It’s also such a relief not having to worry about packing lunches and snacks. You can feel how much love and attention goes into everything they do. The staff is so warm and loving—so grateful we found them!

I’ve been working with Farhana for about 3 months now, she is very kind and loving with all of the kiddos. I have 8+ years worth of experience working with kids and I need to say that she is very much aware and attentive in every aspect. She is very strict on hygiene and safety of all the kids. She ensures that everyone be treated the same while also making sure every child feels loved and safe. Safety is her main priority along with teaching kids good life habits to the best of her ability.

Such a wonderful daycare! Farhana and her staff really go out of their way to make my girls feel loved from the moment they walk in the door. My girls are always excited to go to daycare.

I especially appreciate the communication throughout the day with videos/pictures/updates, their lesson plans that promote language development/social-emotional skills/movement, and the nutritious meals they provide. The daycare is really clean, they bring much attention to keeping things as sanitary as possible. They also have a great range of indoor/outdoor activities and endless arts & crafts that my girls love bringing home. Thank you for encouraging curiosity and cultivating a love of learning!

The staff at East Garrison Maya Child Care are amazing! Farhana staffs her daycare with caring, competent, loving, and safe people. She greets each child and parent with a welcoming spirit and I know my child is safe and is in good hands.

I am a mother of 3 and have never used childcare for our toddlers until our third baby and I am very please with the care and education that is provided. We get daily photo, video, and text updates so we know what's going on and see our baby is having fun, eating healthy, making friends, being active, and resting well.

These women are literal angels and offer so much love and support not only for our kids but also for us parents! By knowing our children are in a safe and loving environment while we are away at work gives us a reassurance we have made the right choice by choosing East Garrison Maya Childcare for our little one!

My son has been going here since Feb 2024. We have seen improvement in his vocabulary and his conversation abilities. Ms Farhana takes care of him and all the other kids in her care very well. It is evident when your child wants to go to daycare on off days and look forward to meet and play with his friends and teachers everyday. I receive daily update on his activities in form of pictures and videos and that's the best part seeing your child happily playing even when you aren't around. The teachers are loving and caring which impacts your child development.

My son has been going here since he was 9 months. They are great! Everyday they play outside and my son loves all the food, snacks and Farhana’s home cooked meals! Farhana even sends little videos of the kids, which is so nice. We came by on his birthday because they threw a little birthday party for him!

Ms Farhana and her staff are fantastic. The children are well cared for and her food.is great. She has a detailed curriculum and lesson plans she sends out routinely. She also keeps you connected through videos and pictures of the child in her care. She is responsive and pleasant, and my son loves her. Would definitely recommend!
