Aleya’s In-Home Day Care

I am writing this review in support of Aleya as a childcare provider. We sent our son to Aleya when he was 4 months old and I returned to work. Our son had a lot of trouble taking a bottle at first and Aleya was extremely patient with him. She worked tirelessly to help him eat from a bottle and kept us well informed the entire time. She updated us during the day at our request and was extremely invested in him developing these skills. Aside from our tribulations with the bottle, Aleya is a warm and caring individual who has been so nurturing and loving with our son. Aleya is always interested in what the doctor says at our son’s check-​ups, to make sure he is growing and doing well. She is dependable and kind; she provides a warm, loving, and safe environment for our son. We cannot recommend her enough.

I’m a south Arlington mom moving to Fairfax County and I wanted to leave a recommendation of our in home day care provider on the border between Arlington and Alexandria near Del Rey and Shirlington. Over the last year, she has been fantastic with our infant, now toddler. Aleya allowed us to use cloth diapers (which I think she regretted), but always made her best efforts to treat our daughter like a member of her family. She keeps her ratio low on purpose 3:1 (one toddler is her daughter) to make sure the kids are her priority. She provided breakfast, lunch, and snacks for our child after she turned one and even introduced new foods after asking if we were open to it. She is a sweet loving woman, licensed and accredited by the county, and she will be missed by our family. It is a in home day care, so the facility was smaller and less fancy than a full daycare but Aleya kept the home clean and safe for the children.
