Giáo viên của chúng tôi

Hello! I am Zahara Causin, the founder of Zahara’s Casita. I was inspired to start my own program because I have loved working with children since I was young. I have 25 years of experience working with young children, in addition to raising my own two children who are now 16 and 23 years old.

Irais Vazquez has extensive education and work experience within the early childhood development field. She graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish and Linguistics degree from Cal State Dominguez Hills. Irais has worked for two years as a Spanish immersion teacher at My Escuelita Spanish School in Redondo Beach, CA, and for two years teaching Spanish Enrichment at the Wiseburn School District. She has also worked as a nanny for families in the Los Angeles area.

Irais and I are not only bilingual but bicultural. Children under our care will learn and practice the beautiful Spanish language, and they will also get to experience some of the rich culture that is so connected to our Southern California life. Both of us have had under our care children starting from newborn to when they leave for school. We are happy to share references.

I am so impressed with Zahara's Casita and feel blessed that our son gets to go there every single day! Everyone is so warm, friendly, trusting, and caring. They love and adore every child. I love the pictures and updates they send throughout the day, and I love that the kids get to run around at the park. I really could not ask for a better daycare situation.

We feel so fortunate to have found Zahara's Casita! You can tell our daughter loves her time there and the teachers that care for her. Every morning at drop off her face lights up when they open the door to greet her. As parents it makes us feel all that more comfortable leaving her in their care for the day when we know she is in such a loving and caring environment.

I could write a novel about how much I adore Zahara's Casita. From the moment I first stepped in, I was struck by their incredible team. Each member exudes kindness, compassion, humor, gentleness, and understanding. Their genuine love for the children is palpable, and it immediately put my mind at ease. Zahara's Casita has truly become a second home for my son, and his happiness there speaks volumes. The array of activities they organize for the children is truly impressive. Their play-based approach, with a Montessori twist, ensures that learning is not only effective but also enjoyable. I'm thrilled that my son is not only picking up new skills but also learning Spanish! It's remarkable to witness his comprehension of the language grow, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to expose him to it at such a young age. Outdoor time is another highlight of Zahara's Casita. I love that they prioritize outdoor play and even incorporate trips to the nearby park into their routine. The teacher-to-child ratio, an exceptional 1:3, provides me with immense peace of mind, knowing that my child is receiving personalized attention and care. Their dedication doesn't stop there; they're even assisting with potty training. It's a challenging task, but their patience and willingness to help my son navigate this milestone is incredibly reassuring. Furthermore, the team's regular photo and video updates are a delightful touch. Seeing my son happy and engaged in his activities warms my heart and reinforces my confidence in Zahara's Casita as his home away from home. I couldn't recommend Zahara's Casita highly enough. It's more than just a childcare program; it's a nurturing environment where children thrive. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found such a wonderful place for my son, and it exceeds all my expectations.

We are beyond grateful that we found Zahara’s Casita and that our son gets to be part of such a loving, engaging, and fun program. Zahara, Irais, and the rest of their team put so much thought, effort, and love into everything they do to teach and engage with the children who they genuinely care about. It is absolutely amazing to see our son learn Spanish and form such special bonds with the team + other children. Zahara + Irais are crucial parts of our village and we feel so lucky for that.

We absolutely love Zahara's -- my child is extremely well cared for and happy there. With that said, the large number of closures (planned and unplanned) that have proven extremely challenging for our family given we both have demanding jobs and no family nearby to help out in a pinch.

Các lời chứng thực

We would like to give it 5 stars. We could not be happier with our experience at Zahara’s Casita over the last 3 years. We have sent both of our kids there and they have been so well taken care of. It is a wonderful place where kids have lots of fun, are attentively cared for, and learn Spanish to boot. I would recommend it to anyone considering sending their kids to daycare and am deeply grateful that we found it.

At Zahara’s Casita, every child is received with genuine love and affection. It is a place where children will experience safety, joy, and growth—in a home environment. The early years are key to the development of a child, and our program provides the essential nurturing and care that your child deserves.

Địa điểm

Zahara’s Casita is located in a cozy, beautiful apartment in the Redondo Beach, CA neighborhood.

We’ve designed our care environment with play and learning areas that allow children to explore various developmentally-appropriate activities based on their interests. Some of our favorite areas include music and movement area (for physical activity and cultural learning), reading / cozy area (for literacy, relaxation, and respite), and art area (for expressing emotions and ideas).

Children will have some outdoor time everyday at a local park or playground. Children need space to run, jump, and move!

At Zahara’s Casita, I want to provide an enriching environment where children feel free to explore and play. The safety of your child will be the top priority, so you can be assured that every space is designed with that in mind.

Về chương trình của chúng tôi

At Zahara’s Casita, we provide a warm, nurturing, and home-like environment where children feel safe, valued, and encouraged to explore the world around them. Our program focuses on individualized attention, early childhood development, and hands-on learning experiences to foster cognitive, emotional, and social growth.

We are a bilingual immersion program, allowing children to develop language skills naturally while embracing cultural diversity. We celebrate community and family connections by hosting family-friendly events and special celebrations throughout the year.

Our specialized approach includes age-integrated groups that encourage peer learning, outdoor exploration, and creative expression through music, arts, and sensory play. We believe that every child deserves a loving space to learn, play, and thrive, and we are committed to providing that every day.
