"The personal care and education provided by New Moon Daycare has exceeded our family's expectations. We knew our two daughters
would be safe and well taken care of, but the personal attention, music, art, socialization, and language development has been
phenomenal." Corbett Elsen - Corte Madera, CA
"We feel very fortunate to have had both of our daughters experience the loving environment of New Moon Daycare. We have referred four different families to New Moon because of the kind, caring, wonderful staff. Director Vera Teixeira is very personable and professional. It is evident that each of the staff develops a close bond with every child, and they are always delighted to see our older daughter when she visits on occasion. We’ll continue to recommend New Moon even after our 2-year old has moved on to pre-school."

"This is the third year I will be sending my son to New Moon Daycare, and if I could continue sending him there forever I would. Vera and her girls are kind, loving, understanding, friendly, and organized. We spent a lot of time researching where to send our son, and from the instant I walked in the door I knew New Moon was the place he would go." Erin Cooney - San Rafael, CA
As a new mom going back to work for the first time, I was incredibly nervous to leave our daughter with someone else to look after her. It quickly became clear that Vera and the other women at New Moon Daycare were taking great care of her. When we picked her up at the end of each day she was well rested and happy! It is so reassuring to see the people taking of you child excited to see her when you drop her off in the morning and hug and kiss her goodbye not wanting to see her go when you pick her up at the end of the day.
She started at New Moon when she was 4 months old and is now two. As an older child, stimulating environment is perfect for our very active little girl. Every day she brings home an art project and they keep her busy with a combination of music, reading, art, outdoor play and trips to the park and library. I can't believe the things that she learns each day. When we found out that we were going to have another child we made sure that Vera had room for us and it was an amazing relief to know that our second daughter was going to such a loving environment with amazing, capable women to look after her. We feel very lucky to have our children at New Moon Daycare and will be sorry when it is time for them to go on to preschool.

We feel extremely lucky to have our eldest daughter at New Moon Daycare. The amount she learns from Vera and the New Moon women is astonishing. Just in the last couple of months, she's surprised my husband and me with the fact that she's learned the alphabet, how to sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, the concept and behaviors of "being nice", and the process of sharing by first asking to share. Even her art has dramatically improved! It's the thoughtful and robust programming week over week that has truly helped our child flourish and accelerate in development. As a baby who spent the first 14 months exclusively being cared for by family due to Covid concerns, she had a harder time transitioning to daycare. But Vera and the women who work there always made drop-offs easier by making sure she was met with excitement, sometimes literally cheering, and a quick distraction. We celebrated each little milestone as the drop-offs became more seamless, and felt completely supported by Vera throughout the process. Now drop-offs are a breeze and when we pick her up at the end of the day, she often attempts to stay and play longer. Eventually, when she says "bye" to Vera and the women who work there and her friends, she does so person, by person - it's clear she has developed special bonds with everyone at New Moon. When our younger daughter joins her sister at daycare at 6 months old, we know she will be not just well-cared for and stimulated, but also loved.
