“So lucky!“
“Our daughter was with Kimi since 5.5 months. Kimi was an amazing addition to our village and helped us in so many ways. You get a genuine experience with Kimi and she becomes part of your family. Kimi provided lunch and snacks for our daughter everyday. She worked to develop curriculum once our daughter was almost ready for preschool. Kimi even potty trained our daughter, which was an amazing bonus! She has a wonderful outdoor area and rotated toys often to keep everyone engaged. We are so grateful for Kimi and Little Explorers!”

“Grateful“
“Our son has been with Kimi since he was 7 months old, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. Kimi is warm, attentive, and treat every child like family. The small, homely setting ensures enough attention and a nurturing environment.
The place is clean and filled with toys and activities that promote learning and development. Our son loves the variety of toys and activities to outdoor play.
Kimi also provides healthy meals and snacks, which is a huge plus.
We have to leave due to moves when my son was 2 years old but he still wants to go back whenever possible. Highly recommend Kimi if you are looking for daycare for your little ones.”

“A life saver!“
“Our son had been with Kimi since he was 6 months old and he loved seeing her every morning! She is so caring and loving of all the kiddos and I know that my son was well loved, well fed, and taken care of in Kimi’s care. As an anxious first time mom, I felt such a relief to have found someone I trust 100% with my child and somewhere he felt safe and happy! Sadly, our family relocated and we all miss Kimi so much but we were happy to leave space for another lucky family to fill our spot 🙂 ”

“Can’t Thank Kimi Enough“
“We can’t say enough good things about Kimi and her wonderful in-home daycare. From the moment we met her, we knew our daughter was in caring, nurturing hands. Our little girl had some initial challenges adjusting to being away from us, but Kimi’s patience, kindness, and nurturing approach helped her transition so well.
Kimi runs an immaculate home with age-appropriate toys and activities to keep the kids engaged and learning. She has a true gift for childcare, and our daughter looked forward to going to Kimi’s house every day. As parents, we had complete peace of mind knowing she was being so well cared for.
More than just an exceptional childcare provider, Kimi became a friend to our family over the years she watched our daughter. We continue to keep in touch with her even though we have since moved away. We are forever grateful to have found Kimi and cannot recommend her highly enough to other families seeking in-home care. She is truly one-of-a-kind!

“So Thankful“
“Kimi helped to raise our daughter Niyah from the time she was 7 months until we had to move when she was just over 2.5 years old. Niyah loves Kimi, going to daycare, and was always happy and smiling when we picked her up. I would highly recommend her services to anyone – we really miss seeing her everyday and any kids are lucky to be in her care..”

“Been with Kimi a long time!“
“We have been at the little explorer with Kimi for 3 years. Our baby started with Kimi when she was 5 months old and yesterday was her last day with Kimi, now that she is 3.5 years and will start pre school Monday. I cannot express how sad we are to leave Kimi for pre school. She is more than a day care provider, she became a friend, a family member, someone who will be alongside you during this journey. She will care for your little ones as they were her own.
She spoil them, give them tons of love, they do a lot of activities. It’s an amazing place for them, with tons of things to do to help them develop. Indoor / outdoor, they won’t be bored. The daycare is always clean and she often renew the toys so the kids always have new things to explore. Our only hope now is to get a second kid so we can go back to Kimi.
There were tears when we said good bye, it has been an amazing 3 years. We love this daycare and consider ourselves extremely lucky to have found her. A gem.

We have a simple billing system which allows you to pay for services on a monthly or yearly basis.
