Flora Child Care

My son Max went to Flora & Jack when he was 2.5 years old and he is 4 now. He spent a very happy time there. Flora was very patient in guiding him into his new environment at the beginning. I’ve also seen her take a walk with new children by hand many times when I dropped off or picked up my son to increase their sense of security. Jack is very smart and helpful. He helped Max a lot to talk and quit diapers. They have a huge number of toys, all kinds of types. Max always can find something he loves. And he was so happy to get presents from Flora and Jack on his birthday and Christmas. They also provide healthy lunches. That saves my life! They have dumplings, pasta, rice, meat, veggies, etc. I don't have to worry about cooking every morning while my son eats well.The couple really love children and put a lot of effort into them. I appreciate the care they take of Max these years.

Between my two kids, we’ve been going to Flora & Jack for the past 6 years! Both my kids have thrived in their care. They were so helpful to guide both my kids and us as first time parents initially. Then, with the pandemic, really couldn’t have been more grateful to know my child was under the most caring and safe environment. It’s been such a blessing dropping off my kids to what feels like loving family members. My 3 yo still asks when he’s going back to “ his auntie Flora”. My kids have a very strong Mandarin foundation which I really credit Flora and Jack for. My son in particular was very stubborn about potty training and of course with their expert guidance have had no issues now. 
 

We couldn’t recommend Floras childcare more. We miss them dearly already. 

After suddenly losing a spot for 15 month old, finding Flora was a miracle and it honestly was the best thing that could have happened. Our son went here for about 9 months, and the only reason we left was to enroll him at the same preschool as his older sister. 

Flora and Jack were amazing and provided a safe  and fun space. They did so many activities with the kids and also spent a lot of time playing outdoors. They sent pictures so we could see all the fun too! Meals were provided and our son was definitely well-fed. 

We would highly recommend and are so grateful for a wonderful experience.

Our son went to Flora and Jack's daycare when he was 14 months after a 6 months waiting list and it is well worthy. Although we ended up moving to east coast after a short 2 months, Flora's daycare is definitely one of the hardest thing for us to give up. We still miss their daycare and feel that we may never be able to find one as great as theirs again. Here is just a small portion of the long reason list:
1) our son loves them and happy to go there after only 2 days--kids love them in general;
2) they pay great attention to every kid and found out issues that we as 1st time parents didn't notice;
3) you can see your kid almost real time since they post kid activity everyday:). We captured so many great moment due to their efforts. As a 1st time dad, I don't want to miss a thing;
4) they are professionals, they hold formal children's education degrees and really provide guide not only to the kid but to their parents;
......
Their daycare is absolutely a gem in Albany and I will recommend them without reservation.

Flora and Jack are absolutely amazing!!  They open the door with the sweetest, most welcoming energy to the kids.  They plan fun craft for the kids during the day, and it absolutely makes my work day to see the cute pictures that Flora sends to me while I'm at work.  They have so much patience, kindness, and joy in watching my daughter and the other kids.  They keep things super clean, yet very stimulating (always something new they plan).  Plus, my daughter is learning Mandarin which is a huge bonus for us!! This was a big reason we chose Flora's Daycare as we wanted our daughter to be exposed to Chinese.  Flora and Jack also speak English,  and they have diverse kids that attend their day care.  I am blown away by how much heart Flora and Jack bring to their daycare.  I would never guess it was the end of a day when I pick up my daughter, as they are still smiling away and eagerly share updates about her day.   I truly can leave my daughter with confidence that she is nurtured and well taken care of!!  I highly recommend Flora's Daycare wholeheartedly!! 

My daughter was in Flora Day care from when she turned 1 to 4. She was well cared, nurtured and well feed while she was going there, As a working Mom, I always have worries about having someone else taking care my daughter, but Flora and Jack ensured me by making sure that they looked out my daughter like their own. She was potty trained when after she turned 2. She always make various arts and crafts that she took home. Their place is spacious and clean, and children are in general very happy. They made their own food for the children, so fresh food all the time. They also enrolled in California food program, and thus, guarantee balance meal for you little ones.
