Hi, my name is Rabia, and I am the director and owner of Giggles Academy. I am a proud mother of two wonderful children and the reason to peruse my career as childcare professional. I started my childcare career in 2002 and I quickly realized how much I enjoyed teaching and caring for children.

My daughter has been going to Giggles Academy for 1 year now and she loves it! She doesn't want to leave when I come to pick her up at the end of the day. Rabia, her family, and the staff have created a great place for kids to learn and play. Rabia is sure to communicate anything she needs from us or things that we need to know. They also use the LifeCubby system which allows you to see what/when the kids ate, when diaper changes and naps took place, and what lessons are being taught. For the older kids not using bottles, they also provide all of the meals and snacks, which is great because it

My family and I had just moved to the area and were looking for an at home, family focused daycare and that's exactly what we found in Giggle's Academy. I found them online and was amazed at how they made me feel like part of the family from the first email through every other interaction with Ms. Rabia and her family. They were always accommodating to my family's needs and made us feel safe leaving our 3 year old daughter with them. My daughter was happy to go everyday and would greet Ms. Rabia with a hug and smile very morning. When I picked her up, she would want show me around the center because

Rabia is great at communicating and is very responsive with any parent needs. I love that I can see the lesson plans, meals, naps, bathroom habits, and other daily activities. The parent newsletter helps me keep up with concepts my child is learning, and gives me fun ways to interact with my daughter at home. As a working parent, I treasure the photos and videos I get of some of her best moments, and I most especially appreciate the love the whole Sohail family shows. I know I am leaving my daughter in the attentive, loving hands of people who are really more like family. My girl who gets sad when

I was used to large corporate childcare centers, but am very glad that I made the switch to home-based care with Giggles Academy in Renton. My daughter still says she doesn’t want to go to “school” in the mornings, but she’ll “go to the nice lady’s house.” Both kids are really enjoying the experience and appear to be learning more at Giggles Academy in a short time than they did at the larger center.

Returning to work after the birth of my son was the hardest thing I have ever had to do. Giggle Academy came to the rescue! The warm, caring environment that Giggles provides is second only to a mother's love. The peace of mind that comes with knowing my son is receiving special care from someone who truly cares for his well being and development has made all the difference in the world. Giggles has made it possible for both mother and son to flourish in their new roles. We are so grateful for Giggles Academy!!

My daughter has attended Giggles Academy since January 2018. She will be 4 in July, and was one of Rabias first kids! Although the initial transition to childcare for my daughter was challenging, and made for many tears during drop offs the first month, Rabia was supportive, and tried to make it easier on both of us. She would text happy updates of my daughter, and using the life cubby app that Rabia participates in, I was able to view my daughter's progress throughout the day. My daughter now calls it "going to school" and loves going to play with her friends. The preschool curriculum has been
