What THE Clients Say

5 stars by customers

“Absolutely Stellar Childcare Experience at Little Sprouts Daycare!

I cannot recommend Sonu's Little Sprouts Daycare highly enough! From the moment my child started attending, I was blown away by Sonu's meticulous attention to detail and genuine care for each child.The meals and snacks provided are not only incredibly healthy and nutritious but also absolutely delicious (per my child). My child has never eaten so well by himself! Sonu's personal touch is evident in everything she does, from ensuring each child feels loved and valued to celebrating all their milestones, both big and small. ”

— Kripa Rao (Former Little Sprouts Parent)

“My older child grew up during the pandemic with 100% of my time and attention on him. I was very skeptical about sending my younger one to a daycare. I wasn't sure I would find someplace that would give her as much love and attention as I would. Now, I cannot even express the magnitude of my relief that we found little sprouts. My child has been with little sprouts for a year now and Ms. Sonu takes care of the kids as if they were her own children. Every child there is given so much love and attention that they all thrive. My 2 year old absolutely loves going to "school" in the morning, and we can drop her without a single worry in our head.”

— Suvarsha Rao (Current Little Sprout Parent)

“My daughter has been going to Little Sprouts for over 2 years now and it has been the best experience for her. As first time nervous and anxious parents, we went with a recommendation to send our daughter here and could not have been happier with our decision.

Sonu provides the best nutrition packed meals which my daughter absolutely loves. She provides a structure and routine which helps the kids thrive. I have seen my daughters progress in eating habits, nap time, potty training, learning, reading, writing. Sonu goes an extra mile in celebrating kids birthdays maken them feel extra special and also all the festivals!”
