Our experience with Modern Education Family Daycare has been incredibly warm and reassuring right from the start. From the moment our baby joined at just 3 months old, we felt so welcomed and at ease. Joyce is amazing! She's so caring, knowledgeable, and always full of positive energy each morning we drop our baby off. Our baby has been a better napper at home since going to daycare. I like that the daycare isn't overcrowded, so my baby can receive more personalized care. We love getting daily updates and photos from Alex.
Alex is our main contact and administrator and he's very responsive. He always answers our questions and provides us with any paperwork we need. We feel our baby is in great hands at daycare.

This place has been such an important part of our son's growth, development, and key to our family's wellness. Both of us back to full time on site work was upcoming and it was already hard for my wife and I to balance our hybrid work schedules and take care of our son. We felt it was early but we needed full time care. We were looking for a smaller day care center to ensure that our son got a great balance of adult attention and the opportunity to make new friends. We are grateful and impressed with the healthy meals and snacks included with the affordable monthly tuition and the end of the week pictures for our memories. We've noticed that he is able to feed himself easier, keep himself busy for alone playtime, settle down for naps/bedtime, and is a bit more comfortable being away from Mom. I would recommend this place for families looking for structured, nurturing care, with healthy habits, and at an affordable price in the South SF and surrounding areas.
