"My daughter started at Over the Rainbow when she was about to turn 3. We had just moved to the US by then, and she couldn´t speak a word of english. Lauren and her staff did an incredible job to teach her, not only a new language, but also social awareness and self confidence. She truly developed and had so much fun during her time there. Even after she left we got invited to different holiday events, so that she could still see everyone. She´s now in Kindergarten, but still talks about her friends and teachers at Over the Rainbow. Will forever be greatful for her time there!"

"If you love your kid, this is the place you want your child to be! Here your child gets the tender love and care they deserve! My son went here with a smile on his face every day, and never wanted to leave as all the kids here love their time together. If i have more children in future they will definitely be coming back!! Teachers are amazing, kids learn many different things, great location. If all child care centers were like this, there'd be more happy parents around!"

"We have had a wonderful experience with Over the Rainbow. Our son, (our first and only child), began going when he was six months old. At the time, he had never been looked after by anyone else apart from my husband and myself, and was shy in larger group settings. A month after he started at Over the Rainbow, we attended his cousin's first birthday party--an event that previously would have been very overwhelming for him. Despite children of all ages running around, he was very engaged. Over the last two weeks we have had a lot of family visiting for the holidays, and everyone has commented on how happy and sociable he is. I credit Lauren and her team for these huge improvements in how he feels around other children and strangers. Beyond the ways in which they have helped my son develop socially, I really appreciate how much effort Lauren, Gaby and Rose put into making sure my husband and I are well-informed about our son's day. I love knowing when he has napped and how much he has eaten, while my husband really loves the photo updates. As first time parents, the team's communicativeness has been a huge help in making us feel comfortable leaving our little guy in daycare. Prior to enrolling him at Over the Rainbow, I had debated leaving my job to stay home full time, but seeing the ways he has grown around the other children has convinced me that we made the right choice. Given her extensive childcare background, Lauren has also been very helpful in making suggestions on different activities and baby gear to try. Lauren really goes the extra mile in organizing fun activities for the kids in a safe, cozy environment. The Halloween party and holiday potluck (complete with a visit from Santa) were so cute to see, but the day to day structured activities are very well thought out too. Based on our experience, we would absolutely recommend Over the Rainbow. Leaving your child with someone else is probably one of the hardest decisions you will make, but Lauren and her team make it much easier. We can't thank them enough for everything they do!"

"Over the Rainbow is a lovely home daycare where my daughter went for almost a year. At previous daycares she was tentative to enter and generally unhappy when i left her, but at Over the Rainbow she literally ran into the house and started playing with her friends. The additional benefit of feeding the kids was amazing and not to be overlooked. I knew everyday that she was in good hands. She loved her teachers and loved Over the Rainbow...it made me feel okay about being a working mom."

"My daughter went to Over The Rainbow for 3 years and it was like a home for her. It was the perfect transition from being home with me to start her education process. She made good friends and learned a lot. I completely recommend Over the Rainbow!"

"Our son has been at OTR since September. He LOVES it. The teachers are amazing, most of the activities are outdoors, and they've got plenty of space. This is our son's third daycare (first was in a different city, second shut down because of Covid) and he adjusted immediately to it. It's so sweet seeing him run into greet the teachers each morning. He brings home more artwork than I know what to do with, and we get daily photos of their activities. It feels more like a preschool than a daycare and I've been impressed with how much all the kids learn and grow on a weekly basis. The teachers also worked really closely with us to ensure our kid was able to sleep well there, which was really important to me. Feels like all the families at OTR take covid seriously and are doing all they can to keep the kids and teachers safe. We've been very happy with OTR and would recommend it to any other family looking for a place that will nurture their child."

"This was my son's first daycare/preschool experience and he has loved going there! All of the care providers are loving and they have created a close knit environment where they plan outings with the families and holiday parties. They always plan fun arts & crafts and provide a healthy lunch and snack. I can't say enough wonderful things about Lauren and her team!"
