Smarties Childcare

This is a great little daycare! I go here to pick up kids that I babysit, and I am really impressed with their staff. First of all, this daycare is a «Spanish immersion» place, so all the staff speak Spanish fluently, and they speak only in Spanish to the kids (even the wittle babies). It’s great to see a little 18 month old completely white, blonde hair blue eyed boy ask for «agua» and say «hola» upon greeting me. Second of all, and the thing I am most impressed with, is their menu. These kids eat like kings! Everything is made in-​house, fresh, daily, by their amazing cook (s). I take snapshots of the menu every week so I have a general idea of what types of diapers I’ll be changing, and the items are all things that I deeply desired as a child growing up in Chicago’s slums, eating cafeteria «food.» I’m not sure how much it costs to enroll your children here, but I do know that many of the parents are very happy with their children’s care at this place, and you can’t put a price on that…(or can you…).

My son was the second child at Smartie’s Childcare. I really am grateful for Bogna and all that she did for me and my son. As a first time mom, I wanted the best environment for my infant… and I definitely found that with Smarties!

My son (3yo) just transitioned to Smarties after being at the Clifton School since 4mo. I couldn’t be happier. The staff is wonderful. The class size is small and my son started repeating spanish words after his first day!

This is the second daycare my son (16 months) has attended and the difference is astounding. The teachers actually love their jobs and are great with the kids. I love that my son is learning Spanish, eating organic and being treated well. Bogna has an A+ facility, very happy and would recommend this daycare.
P. S. Also the rates are not through the roof as compared to «montessori» schools.
