My 1 year old son started daycare here in August and he absolutely loves it! The teachers are all very involved and everyone greets him when he arrives. They aren’t just ‘babysitting’, they are teaching them so many things. They keep you updated throughout the day with photos and notes. We couldn’t be happier and know that while we’re working our son is well looked after. We love one of his teachers so much that she now babysits for us outside of daycare. We’ll send all of our children here while we live in Fairfax.

Sparkles daycare is amazing there are tons of great staff from Ms. Danielle handling my payments and enrollments to Ms. Ivory taking care of my 7 year old helping with virtual learning and staying focused as possible. To passing Ms. Ashley's smiling face in the hall ways and she's always friendly and open to conversation . To the lovely ladies (Ms.Elizabeth, Ms.Geovana, and Ms.Trinity ) taking care of my wild and active 7 month old in the infant class. I really love this daycare its so clean and upkept the staff feels like family I would recommend them to everyone if i could.

The Sparkles daycare is full of great teachers and staff. My kids enjoy going every day. Ms. Danielle is always willing to assist with any questions and concerns and is very knowledgeable. Ms. Ivory is my son’s favorite teacher. My daughter loves all the games and activities that they offer. Again great staff and so helpful during these covid times.

My child will be turning one this year and has been going here since she was 3 months old. The teachers love your child as if they were their own. I am completely confident that they are receiving the best care! She has advanced so much and learns quickly by watching the other children and her teachers teaching her. I would recommend this place as as childcare center that really adores and treasures your child.

My kids love coming here. Danielle is the best! Every time you walk in she’s there greeting you with a smile. She treats my kids like her own. Not only myself but my kids feel more than welcomed here. The whole staff here is nothing short of amazing. A few of my kids favorite teachers are Ms.Ivory, Ms.Jenni and Ms. Maize. All of them have had a positive impact on my kids lives. Being a single mom is tough, but with all of their help they make life a little easier. I wouldn’t send my kids anywhere else!

My son absolutely loves going to Sparkles. He is currently with Miss Gladys and absolutely adores her. She is so involved with the kids and the projects she does with the children are wonderful. He’s only two and comes home telling me about all the things he’s done during the day. I am a teacher and work with him at home but I am constantly amazed at what he is learning in his class at school. We have had nothing but a great experience at Sparkles since I started him here at five months old...almost 2 years ago. All the teachers seem to really love and care for the students. We will be very

My niece who is 6 and my nephew who is 3, has been going to Sparkles! for almost 2 years now. My niece really enjoyed summer camp last year and during the school year benefits from the tutoring program they offer. My nephew when he first started was very shy and kept to himself but after a week he started interacting more with the children and teachers. They help a great deal with potty training and made it fun for him. I can tell her learning a lot and is very excited about school because every time I see him he tells me about what he learning in at school. I would highly recommend Sparkles to

I love Sparkles, the staff is amazing, my son loves it, and the teachers are very lovable with the kids. We just moved to Virginia and had a very bad experience in a previous daycare, my two year old loves his teachers and everytime I drop him off all the kids in the classroom are extremely happy. They sing, they dance, play outside, ride around a buggy inside the daycare and you can see how the teachers really care about the kids. The admin staff is extremely helpful, my husband and I have very stressful jobs and the daycare provides extended hours if needed, automatic debit payment(which is great
