TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
MY FAMILY HAS BEEN ATTENDING BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL CHILD CARE SINCE FEBRUARY OF 2007. I HAVE TO SAY, WE COULD NOT BE ANY HAPPIER!
SANDRA MCCLAIN HAS BEEN EXECELLENT ROLE MODEL AND AN EXCELLENT TEACHER FOR MY CHILD. SHE HAS A TRACK RECORD FOR KEEPING ME INFORMED AND UP TO DATE ON HOW MY CHILD IS DOING SOCIALLY AS WELL AS ACADEMICALLY. MS. MCCLAIN HAS IMPLEMENTED AN EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM USING TOOLS SUCH AS HOOKED ON PHONICS AND KUMON. THIS PROGRAM PREPARED OUR CHILD FOR KINDERGARDEN. HE STARTED HIS FIRST YEAR PERFORMING WELL ABOVE EXPECTED STANDARDS AND HAS CONTINUED TO EXCEED, PERFORMING AT THE TOP OF HIS CLASS! WE ARE EXTREMELY HAPPY THAT SANDRA HAS HELPED OUR CHILD TO GET A GREAT HEAD START IN REGARDS TO ACADEMICS.
OUR FAMILY PUTS SO MUCH TRUST IN SANDRA AND THE CARE THAT SHE GIVES TO OUR CHILD. WE ARE GRATEFUL THAT WE FOUND HER! OUR CHILD, NICHOLAS, HAS BECOME CLOSE WITH SANDRA OVER THE YEARS. SHE IS FAMILY TO US!
I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL CHILD CARE TO ANYONE LOOKING TO ENROLL THERE CHILD IN DAY CARE!
SINCERELY,

TO WHOM THIS MAY CONCERN,
IN JANUARY 2008, MY WIFE AND I DECIDED TO MOVE OUR SON, AUSTIN (THEN 18 MONTHS), FROM A LOCAL CHILD CARE CENTER TO SANDRA MCCLAIN’S BEFORE AND AFTER CHILDCARE. AFTER INTERVIEW WITH SANDRA WE FELT VERY COMFORTABLE AND CONFIDENT THAT SHE WOULD PROVIDE EXECELLENT CHILD CARE SERVICES. WE ARE HAPPY TO SAY THAT SHE HAS EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS. SANDRA OFFERS AN EXCELLENT EDUCATION CURRICULUM, AND PROVIDES MANY HOMEMADE MEALS AND HEALTHY SNACKS. HER HOME IS ALWAYS CLEAN AND KEPT CHILD PROOF.
MANY THANKS,

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
AS A MOTHER, I AM VERY SKEPTICAL OF WHO TAKE CARE OF MY CHILD WHILE I AM AWAY. THERE IS SO MUCH TO WORRY ABOUT AS A PARENT AND FINDING THE RIGHT CARE FOR YOUR CHILD. SANDRA IS WONDERFUL AT WHAT SHE DOES AND PROVIDES ME WITH COMFORT WHEN MY CHILD IS IN HER CARE, SHE TREATS EVERY CHILD LIKE HE/SHE IS HER OWN AND GOES ABOVE AND BEYOND TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE PARENT AND CHILD, AND THAT IS WHAT I LOVE MOST ABOUT MS SANDRA. SHE GENUINELY CARES ABOUT THE CHILDREN AND WORKS A VERY FLEXIBLE SCHEDULE TO EXTEND HER CARE BEYOND JUST THE “TYPICAL CHILCARE” MONDAY-FRIDAY, 7AM-5:30AM SHIFT. MOST CHILDCARES LACK THE ESSENTIALS OF WHAT CHILDREN NEED AT A YOUNG AGE AND PLAY MORE OF A BABY SITTER ROLE. AT CORDELIA BEFORE AND AFTER CHILD CARE, SANDRA PROVIDES A STIMULATING CURRICULUM TO GET YOUR CHILD KINDERGARDEN READY AND EVEN BEYOND THAT. BEFORE MY DAUGHTER ATTENDED SANDRA’S SHE HAD TROUBLE WITH HER ALPHABETS, WITHIN A WEEK OF BEING THERE SHE WAS ABLE TO FLUENTLY SAY ALL OF HER LETTERS. I CAN PROVIDE A LIST OF WHAT I LOVE ABOUT CORDELIA BEFORE AND AFTER CHILDCARE, YET WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE ALL OF THE THINGS THAT I ENJOY ABOUT THE SERVICE ENRICHMENT AND RECREATION ARE BIG TO ME AND I LOVE WHEN MY DAUGHTER TELLS ME ABOUT HER DAY WHILE SHE ATTEMPTS TO SAY ATTEMPTS TO SAY HER NUMBERS IN SPANISH. I HAVE HAD A LOT OF “IFFY” FEELINGS AND EXPERIENCES WITH PAST CHILDCARE THAT MY DAUGHTER HAS ATTENDED AND WITH SANDRA THAT “IFFY” FEELING IS NOT APPARENT AT ALL. I CAN SAY WITHOUT A DOUBT THAT SANDRA MCCLAIN IS ONE OF THE BEST CHILDCARES OUT THERE THAT STILL EXIST, WITH HER YOU WILL FIND WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AND MORE.
VERY TRULY,

AS A SINGLE FATHER RAISING A SON ALONE, I CAN NOT EXPRESS HOW MS SANDRA HAS BEEN A BIG INPUT IN MY SONS LIFE. 6 YEARS REALLY HAS FLEW BY, MY SON WILL BE GRADUATING FROM THE 6TH GRADE IN 2013. THANKS TO MS SANDRA MY SON TEST SCORES ARE AWESOME, MY EXPERIENCE WITH THE CHILDCARE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN SPECTACULAR, 4 DAYS A WEEK YOUR CHILD WILL BE STUDING THERE LESSON PLANS THAT SHE IMPLEMENTED IN CORDELIA BEFORE N AFTERSCHOOL CHILDCARE. SHE WILL BE GREATLY MISSED WHEN MY SON GRADUATES. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK SANDRA FOR OTHERS THAT MAY COME YOUR WAY. MAY GOD BLESS.
THANKS!

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
AS A MOTHER IT IS ALWAYS VERY DIFFICULT TO TRUST ANYONE WITH YOUR CHILDREN BUT I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT OUR EXPERIENCE OVER THE LAST NEARLY FOUR YEARS WAS ONE THAT GAVE ME RENEWED HOPE THAT THERE ARE STILL GENUINE CARE PROVIDERS THAT EXIST TODAY AND ONE OF THOSE INDIVIDUALS WITHOUT A DOUBT IS MISS SANDRA MCCLAIN, WE WERE FIRST MADE AWARE OF MISS SANDRA’S SERVICES THROUGH THE CHILD CARE COUNCIL REFERRAL SYSTEM. WE WERE IN NEED OF A CARE PROVIDER AND WERE NEW TO THE AREA SO WE IMMEDIATELY BEGAN THE INDIVIDUALS SUGGESTED FOR OUR AREA. AT THE THAT TIME OUR DAUGHTER WAS JUST TRANSITIONING FROME PRE-SCHOOL TO ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AND WE WERE SUDDENLY IN NEED OF TRANSPORT AND HALF-DAY CARE. WE CONTINUED CALLING THE PROVIDERS SUGGESTED AND WE CAME ACROSS MISS SANDRA’S ESTABLISHMENT NAME AND AFTER OUR FIRST CONVERSATIONS AND MEETINGS MISS SANDRA REGARDING OUR NEEDS I KNEW SOMETHING WAS DIFFERENT ABOUT HER AND WHAT WE COULD EXPECTFROM HER WOULD BE DIFFERENT. SINCE THAT TIME SHE HAS ALSO PROVIDED TRANSPORT AND AFTER CARE FOR OUR ELDEST SON DURING HIS ELEMENTARY AND MIDDLE SCHOOL DAYS.
MISS SANDRA HAS NOT ONLY LOVED OUR CHILDREN AND CARED FOR THEM AS IF THEY WERE HER OWN BUT AS A PROFESSIONAL SHE PROVIDED EXEMPLARY CARE PROVIDING A CLEAN AND SUITABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR THEM AND THE OTHER CHILDREN PRESENT TO THRIVE AND GROW IN. MISS SANDRA’S HANDS ON APPROACH, FAIR DISCIPLINE TECHNIQUES AND HEALTHY LIFESTYLE HAVE TRANSLATED INTO EXCELLENT CARE FOR EVERY CHILD THAT ENTERS HER HOME.
WHILE WE HAVE HAD TO REMOVE OUR CHILDREN FROM MISS SANDRA’S ESTABLISHMENT DUE TO LOGISTICAL CHALLENGES WE STILL MAINTAIN RELATIONSHIP WITH HER AND LOOK TO HER FOR EMERGENCY CARE. SHE IS STILL LISTED AS A VIABLE CONTACT FOR THE BOTH OF OUR CHILDREN THROUGH THE SCHOOL SYSTEM SHOULD THE NEED ARISE FOR HER SERVICES.
WE WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND MISS SANDRA MCCLAIN AS A CARE PROVIDER FOR ANY CHILD NEEDYING DAYCARE OR TRANSPORT IN THE CORDELIA-GREEN VALLEY AREAS.
TRULY YOURS,
MOORE FAMILY
