Lydia’s Licensed Daycare

I honestly don’t know where to start. Lydia, Dina, and Nana, and all amazing with our son who is currently 6.5 months old. He’s been going to Lydia’s since he was 4 months old and he loves it there. He’s happy to see Lydia in the morning when we drop him off and just as happy when we pick him up. I can’t say enough good things about Lydia and her staff. As a new mom knowing I was going to have to put our son in daycare was hard. Lydia made the transition very easy. She had us do a trial run for a couple of hours when our son was around 3 months old which was great practice for all of us. When our son started daycare she sent me pictures to show me how he was doing and in every picture he was smiling and having a great time. I would recommend Lydia to anyone who is looking for quality childcare. All of them genuinely love our son and everyday I have peace of mind knowing he is in the best of hands! Thank you Lydia, Dina, and Nana for everything you do for our son! We wouldn’t want him with anyone else!!!

My son has been at Lydia’s since he was 8 months old. He is now almost 2 and we have been very happy with his care. They are clean and organized. Highly recommend her daycare!

I’ve been meaning to write a review for Lydia. I’m extremely selective about daycare services and interviewed maybe 4 – 6. Lydia was very personable, friendly and flexible. I liked that she had a solid schedule for the children and a CLEAN environment. My daughter Alice was initially upset and frightened with the new surroundings but quickly adapted no doubt because of the atmosphere that Lydia provided. It was very common to see my daughter and other children want to give hugs goodbye which was a great feeling because it showed the level of comfort. She also provided a once-​a-​month «parent’s night out» option (late-​night sitting); my wife and I didn’t get the chance to try it but it seemed like a great idea and I wish we took advantage.
Overall I highly recommend. I don’t Unilocal much but for Lydia I’m very happy to give a review. I can’t say enough good things about her, just a fantastic experience.

I’m so impressed my Lydia and her wonderful staff! When moving to San Jose, I felt very unhappy with the home based childcare I was finding and interviewing with they all seemed to lack in one area or another. Then finally I found Lydia! She and her small staff are so loving, caring and treat my son (2 ½yrs) as if he was family. He loves going to daycare in the mornings and gives hugs to Lydia and tells me about his fun day after picking him up. He also has been speaking much more and making bonds with the other children positively. I highly recommend Lydia and trust in her childcare abilities!

My daughter just turned 10 months old and LOVES Lydia’s, she has been there for four months and has thrived. Having two educators as parents, will eventually be rough on our daughter, but I believe made us incredibly picky about daycare. As a family, we couldn’t be happier. Lydia and the ladies treat my daughter as their own. She is happy, naps and eats well and even got to see Santa for her first time :). Lydia’s offers a loving, professional, super clean learning environment for all little ones.

I was referred to Lydia’s by a friend (who had taken both of her daughters there). Lydia cared for my son from when he was 4 months old until he went to Jr. Kindergarten. She is so caring for the kids and such a wonderful wealth of knowledge for us first time Moms! I remember when I went to meet with her about watching my son I asked her — Will you love my son? She had no hesitation and said «Yes». I decided then to put him in her care and have never regretted that choice. She has been a wonderful and stable force in my son’s life and we all love her greatly!

My son has been going to Lydia’s since he was 4 months old. He is now 3 and is still going here. I am a nurse and work strange hours and Lydia has been very flexible and willing to work with my schedule and odd hours. My son loves Lydia and the two women that work for her. He gets hugs and kisses and is very loved at this daycare. I have never felt uncomfortable leaving my son here and he has even had to stay overnight.

Obviously, I would leave a 5 star review for my mother, she raised me! But it goes deeper than that…
I have watched my mom run her daycare from a very early age. Now, with a successful daycare of my own I can truly say that I learned everything I know from her. She is loving and nurturing in every way possible. She helps out with my 2 kids as well and there is noone I would trust more to take care of my children.
Take it from me-​the girl she raised-​you will be very happy with the level of care her and her assistants offer to your children!

My toddler son loves going to Lydia’s. They provide personalized child care in a clean, comfortable environment. Would highly recommend!

I was referred to Lydia by my sister who had sent my nephew here for many years. I was very comfortable bringing my infant son to Lydia’s house, which is well kept and clean. Lydia and her staff are friendly and the kids are always happy and calm. My son has now been there for almost a year and loves seeing his friends everyday. I would highly recommended Lydia’s day care for any parent looking for a loving, safe and fun in-​home daycare.

My daughter has been going to Lydia’s since I returned to work from maternity leave. She is now about a year old, and is always happy when I pick her up. Typically there are 3 adults present, ensuring the kids all receive attention. Lydia and her helpers genuinely care for the kids and especially love babies, which made it much easier to entrust my baby to their care.

I found Lydia and her team through a friend about 8 months ago. I spoke with her when I was pregnant with my now 9 month old. Like most moms, I was looking for a caring environment for my newborn. I wanted to be able to drop him off and focus on my job during the day, but know he was receiving just then love he needed. I found exactly that with Lydia and her daycare team. Dylan spent some time there when I was still on maternity leave so he (and I) could adjust to his new environment., which Lydia recommended. I have been back to work for 7 months and continue to feel a great sense of love and care for my son. He is always happy when drop him off and pick him up. Lydia and her team are experienced and professional. Te home is the nicest and cleanest of the 7 in-​home daycares i interviewed prior to choosing Lydia. They do not allow shoes which is important when younhave a crawling baby. They are organized and relay daily updates to me at pick-​up. Lydia is also aware that new moms may need to check in on their babies and is open to phone calls or texts when I’m needing a check-​in during the work day. I highly recommend Lydia and her daycare team to anyone looking for a safe, nurturing, in-​home daycare!

I found her on Craigslist. I was in a bind and needed an alternative daycare because my little one is sick. Now the coughing and the runny nose isn’t an issue per se but at his daycare, if a fever is running, it must subside for 24 hours before they can accept him. I am unable to take off work so I scoured the few resources that I had and began calling.
This daycare is located in Campbell and operated out of a home. There is a separate kids’ area next to the kitchen and the ratio seems to be 1:3, there is another hired help. though I forgot her name but she is soft spoken and friendly.
I came unannounced because that is the best time to check your child. I called during the day to see how he was doing but like most times, he does well w/​others so no complaints from the provider. I say this because my cousin’s son would scream bloody murder if he isn’t next to his mother or father which resulted in providers denying to watch him. I came and see him eating his snacks, clean, and calm so that is a good indicator that he was taken care of.
The place opens 6am-​6pm but can be flexible if you need an earlier drop off or later pickup. I see that overnight and weekend care is an option. The phone # (408) 460‑0716 and (408) 264‑0405.
I wasn’t able to meet her prior but she preferred to meet both the parent (s) and the child. She is very easy to talk to and I felt comfortable on the phone and in person. My little one is better so I would not need to drive 20 minutes, 30 w/​traffic Monday but if I ever need help like in this case, I would certainly return.
