Our Teachers

Hello! I am Rachel Ben-Ezra, the founder of Mami Daycare Wonderschool. I was inspired to start my own program so that I would be able to spend more time with my children at home, while also helping my community at the same time. My program has been in operation since 2012. My assistant, Ruti was a preschool teacher in Israel for 40 years.

Testimonials

“Mami Daycare is so great! Rachel and Ruti really love the kids, and it shows in everything they do. Our daughter would be so excited to see them every day. The kids have so much fun, singing, doing crafts, and learning. Rachel cooks nutritious meals for the kids and sends parents the cutest pics. They really nurtured our daughter and taught her good manners. We can’t say enough good things about our experience there!” - Sarah

“Mami Daycare is the next best thing to leaving your kids with family. They provide the kids with nothing but the best! Homemade food, learning, singing and fun, all done with love in a safe and CLEAN environment (so important for a clean freak like myself). My kids always look forward to going to daycare and name Ruti and Racheli along their best friends.” - Melody

“So it has been over 3 years that my son is been to Mami Daycare, and yesterday was his last day. It’s time for me to say a big thank you to Racheli, Rutie and Iafa. They took care of my son like he was their own. My son loved going to daycare everyday and I felt safe leaving him there. Pre-school is his next chapter starting Monday, and I really hope that he will like the new place as much as he liked Mami. Highly recommended daycare for all. Thank you for everything!” - Asaf

Philosophy

At Mami Daycare Wonderschool, we believe in the importance of community, and that a child’s development begins in the home. Children should feel comfortable to play and learn through using their senses and explore the world around them in a safe environment.

The children will be welcomed by an attentive and loving team who will use their childcare experience to make your child feel right at home.

Location

Mami Daycare Wonderschool is located on a quiet block in a welcoming single family home in the Valley Village / North Hollywood neighborhood.

Children will spend most of the day outdoors in my private yard, where they have plenty of space to run around and explore.

About our program

Mami Daycare is equipped with child-safe interiors, new child-friendly equipment and amenities to ensure complete safety, security as well as health and hygiene of children. We also provide kosher hot meals which are freshly prepared on a daily basis as well as breakfast and afternoon snacks.

Mami Daycare is dedicated in providing an enjoyable and educational environment. The best way for a child to develop more knowledge is to combine learning with playing. Therefore, our Mami Daycare logo is designed with shapes and colors. Infants are just starting to learn about the world around them. Their development is growing rapidly, and by introducing them to shapes and colors through playing, it captures their attention while helping them, learn at the same time. We are aware that every child develops according to their own needs and abilities. And that is why, we involve shapes and colors in everything we do, from reading a book, dancing, singing, playing or doing arts in craft. Surely your child starts identifying and memorizing these important skills. We also encourage by saying the shapes and colors out loud as we explore in our daily routine.

We also value and respect the parent’s needs as well. Choosing the right daycare for your child is very important. We at Mami Daycare create a trusted, professional, and reliable relationship with each parent. We truly believe and are always mindful of the power of love and the special magic of having fun.
