Dear Renee, Words cannot express how grateful we are for you and all you do for our girls. From Lennon’s first day 2022, we knew ama Goose was someplace special. Thank you for providing such a happy, safe, and nurturing environment for our children to learn and grow. Being away from the girls while we work is really hard, but knowing they’re with you gives us such peace of mind. You make drop-off easy because we know they’re in the best hands! Thank you again, for everything! We hope you have the most wonderful and happy holiday with your family. Please enjoy this much deserved time off (and we’re sure you need it –our girls are a handful! 😂) All our best, The P. Family

*Hi Ms. Renee, I posted the review on google and here is also a copy for you to post. xoxo 🫶🏾
We LOVE LOVE LOVE Ms. Renee// Mama Goose Daycare!!! This has been the best daycare my child has attended. I was a new mom worried about putting my child in daycare like most parents are. But Ms. Renee made the transition so smooth and fulfilling. It was easily the best decision my husband and I have ever made. Ms. Renee treated my daughter like her own. My daughter cried to go there and cried when getting picked up, it was unbelievable. My daughter came home saying a new word everyday and her motor skills improved day by day. Ms. Renee makes daycare feel like a second home for our daughter. She’s comforting, nurturing, trustworthy, and everything you need in someone that will basically be raising your child with you. We appreciate Ms. Renee and our time spent there. We wish our kids can stay with her forever! xoxo The Jackson Family 2023

Dear Ms. Renee,
I think it may be impossible to put into words how much you have meant to our family the last four years.
your love and care for Levon and Graham was beyond what I thought possible. You also help to guide and show Adam and me how to be good parents.
Thank you for the years of advice, for the hugs for our boys and the endless shacks and all of the laughs. You and Rosie are a big part of our story.
I hope you will continue to stay in touch. If there is ever anything we can help with; do not hesitate to call!
Love, Anne & Adam May 2022

Thank you for giving the kids dance parties and a constant flow of bubbles!
And most of all thank you for opening your heart to our family. ❤
We love Mama Goose Daycare!! Our son has been here since he was 5 months old and Ms. Renee is just the best. She provides a comfortable, loving, caring environment at her in-home daycare. I don’t know where I would be without her as she truly keeps my mind at ease knowing my son is safe and happy while I’m at work.

Thank You, Ms Renee
For your patience…day to day,
For every tear you wipe away,
For little hands you gently hold,
For all the stories you have told,
For your consoling, tender heart,
And all the wisdom you impart,
For silly songs & quiet times.
For peaceful naps & nursery rhymes,
for teaching children how to share,
For being kind and being fair,
For every shoe that you have tied,
And thoughtful words that instill pride ,
For all the sweet things that you do,
to help the children all year through,
For being there in place of us…
We’re grateful and we’ll always be!!!
With Love Always,
Jennie, Rob, Eli & Sadie

Dear Ms. Renee
We would like to “thank you” for being a wonderful caregiver to our two children. When it was time to find someone to watch our children, we were stressed as we knew no one in the area. The only people we trusted to watch them were grandparents. However, when we met you, we knew your warm an nurturing personality, along with your many years of experience were perfect for our children. It was an easy decision to send them to Mama Goose and one that no doubt shaped the kids they are today. We will forever be grateful for your time, patience and love for our children. They will always remember your daycare with fond memories and we will always consider you their third grandmother.
Thank you again for all you have done for us…
Love,
Jake, Amy, Ezra & Evelyn 2017
Our daughter attended Mama Goose from 3 months old until all most 3 years old! As working parents, we couldn’t have been happier with the care she received. Ms Renee was always accommodating to us, and made things stress free! Our daughter really grew while under the care of Mama Goose, and learned so much in the time she was there. We would recommend Mama Goose to any parent!

~Dear Ms Renee,
This letter is from appreciative grandparents whose granddaughter has just completed more than two years at your program and has now “graduated” into a Montessori program.
Perhaps you will want to share this letter with parents who are considering having their child attend Mama Goose.
Having witnesses both the care and the growth of our granddaughter since the time that she began to attend your program we ++strongly recommend++ your program.
Parents, you should know that Mama Goose offers a ++nurturing and loving++ environment and importantly in a home atmosphere, not a day care atmosphere.
You and your staff relate to each child separately and treat them as individuals.
++As our granddaughter grew while attending your program it became apparent that she has been instilled with manners, politeness and a caring for others that will be important lifelong qualities.++ She usually says please when she wants something thank you when she gets it and cleans up her play area with few prompts after she finishes an activity.
Thank you for all that you have done for our granddaughter.
Sincerely yours,
Eileen and Dick 2013
Miss Renee offers my daughter a nurturing, warm, and very flexible environment. Kaelyn is so happy to see “NeNe” every morning. Miss Renee treats all of the kids just like they are her own. It is so comforting to know my daughter is cared for in an environment of love and respect.
“After spending time with Ms Renee, I want to stay and play too.”

Philosophy
My program follows a play-based / child centered philosophy. I believe that children learn social, cognitive, and emotional skills by exploring new experiences. My environment is responsive to the children in our care. Thus allows your child to gain success through a wide range of age appropriate activities and opportunities based on their interest to help facilitate their learning and engagement. Its simply a child-centered preschool program, children are able to choose activities based on the current interests. Learning activities such as creative arts, literacy, numeracy, social studies, science, etc. are presented to children through play. This encourages children to play, facilitating both social and emotional skills along the way.
