About us
Hello!! My name is Saida K. Said and I have been a licensed family childcare since 2008. My husband Marghani A. Haaji is my full-time assistant and the facility manager. We love caring for your children.
In 1998, I started volunteering at the YMCA childcare center. I enjoy educating children and helping them grow with a positive self-identity. Since then, I did childcare for private families.
In May, 2008, I became a licensed childcare provider and began my own in-home childcare. The joy of watching the children grow for the seven years, the love of teaching children, providing them daily care and watching them grow, has been extremely rewarding . This is my dream job. I thank all my families for allowing me to continue to teach their children.
I continue to take classes and workshops each year in all aspects of Childcare and Children’s Health, Safety, Development and Learning.
