Casa Silvestre is a small in-home daycare with a 1 provider to 3 children ratio. We currently have three very social toddlers from 12-15 months and are looking to add one more. Additionally there's a 3 year old and a 5 year old that participate in their own program, and have their own care taker. We are looking to add another toddler to the mix. I am Diana, manager and owner, and together with Camila and Santiago, we care for the children with love in the best way we can. Our focus is on keeping children's stress levels low to protect the development of their nervous system. Children receive high quality food home made with mostly organic ingredients in a family meal setting. We provide a dedicated nap room ensuring children get the rest they need to grown and achieve their developmental milestones. Kids have multiple spaces to explore, including a shaded backyard with sensory play stations and garden. Our Spanish immersion program envelops children in language through songs and stories in our daily story time. 📍 Conveniently located near 580 and 880, close to Laurel District and Mills College 📍 2307 64th Avenue, Oakland, CA 94605 🌐 casasilvestreoakland.com

Little Bud Family Daycare and Preschool is a bilingual program serving children ages 1 to 5 years old. We aim to provide a safe, enriching, engaging and diverse space for children to reach their developmental milestones. It is a place that values forming connections above all else. To us, nothing is more vital than the relationship between administration, teachers, parents and families all for the success of our young learners. Our lessons and activities follow the developmental guidelines as outlined by the California Preschool Curriculum while using the Emergent Curriculum approach. The Emergent Curriculum approach is a student-driven method of learning where teachers form close relationships with the children and offer activities based on the specific interests of each cohort. This offers children deeper engagement with their learning process and unique developmental needs. Along with activities, projects are designed following monthly themes to let children explore different topics and gain a wider knowledge base. Through our carefully curated lessons, activities and projects, our students learn to be curious explorers, independent thinkers, and self-confident individuals who are models of positive behavior while learning in a multicultural environment. Our spacious outdoor space allows students to finesse their motor skills, form friendships with other age groups, and develop crucial social-emotional skills such as knowing how to compromise and communicate. Little Bud Family Daycare and Preschool offers daily Mandarin circle time and lessons to those students and families who are interested. We welcome students of all cultures, backgrounds, and ethnicities. If not participating in the Mandarin program, we offer alternative activities. Based on the number of student enrollment, we also offer language enrichment for non-Mandarin families.

A Preschool and Kindergarten in Union City, CA, running successfully since 30+ years, providing Montessori Style Early Childhood Education. Currently serving children age 2 through 6 years. For us, every child is unique and our amazing teachers know that care starts with making one-on-one connection with each child so they can know his/her specific needs and what matters for a child. This is how they help every new child become a part of (what we call) Adventure Montessori Academy (AMA) Family! Montessori style teaching, in fun way and by doing it, instead of just being told on what or how things are. Children learn from each other and teachers act as catalyst. Supervised indoor play introduced in the daily curriculum where there is learning every moment, every day and where teachers also continue learning from situations they see and this helps them as well get better and better over time. Age specific curriculums help us ensure our children keep loving what they do, continue learning and get solid foundation to (finally) get to Grade 1, as they grow with our care. We are a Childcare Center where both, the staff and management believe that Feedbacks are Blessings (good or bad). No one is perfect but we can always try and get closer to that by listening to our parents and learning from every situations. We would've never got to 4th decade of being in Union City, if it were not for our parent's love, support and their continuous feedbacks which enabled us to be here. Current Maximum Capacity: 60 children. And we're so excited for an Infant Center (kid's age 6 weeks to 2 years) with a target additional capacity of 36 kids coming by early 2026!!
