Little Hoppers Daycare Llc

"Little Hoppers was easily the best daycare I've worked for. After 6 years in centers and feeling like I didn't belong, Little Hoppers quickly became a home away from home with how easy-going and comfortable the in-home daycare was. The children were always smiling and interacting with each other kindly throughout the day. Not only was the environment extremely friendly, but the children were the best group I've worked with. They picked up manners quickly (using their sneeze catcher and cough catcher, saying "please" and "thank you", etc.), and overall were an incredible group to work with. The staff at Little Hoppers also contributed to the positive environment with how collaborative and friendly they were. Every day at the daycare felt easy thanks to the support they provided. I genuinely enjoyed the drama-free atmosphere for a change, as my old centers were nothing but drama among coworkers. Again, easily the best people I've worked with! The same applies to the owner, Jim Cassar. Jim was a very accommodating boss who also knew how to be fair. His expectations were always reasonable, and his pay was generous compared to other daycare options. Requesting time-off was never a challenge, either. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Little Hoppers and already miss the children's smiling faces, the comfort of the home, and my coworker's and boss's constant interest in myself as a person. Highly recommended whether you're looking for work or to send your child(ren) to a daycare you can trust!"

"We have been sending our daughter to Little Hoppers since May of 2022 when she turned 1. We will also be sending our new born son there in a few months. She always has a huge smile on her face at drop off when she sees Jim and runs to give him a hug. Every time we see other kids being picked up/dropped off they are always happy as well. They have been very flexible in all her schedule changes such as her transition from 2 to 1 naps, and I loved that she was able to have her own room/crib/baby monitor. She has been humming the ABCs, counting and comes home learning new sign language which is so sweet! The daily summaries are helpful to know her mood, how long her naps were, poops of the day, and she looks like she's having a great time in the picture. You can always reach out during the day to check in to make sure day is going smooth. It's always hard leaving your baby with someone else but I do feel I trust them and she is in good hands!"

"My daughter attended little hoppers as an infant. We were very pleased with the level of care she received while she attended. Jim and his staff are wonderful, and my daughter always arrived happy to see them in the mornings."

"We’ve had a great experience with Jim and the Little Hoppers team. In the time our child has been in their regular care we’ve seen improved language development (ASL & verbal) and better social-emotional skills. Our kiddo looks forward to going to daycare to see friends and caregivers. Communication has been consistent with the staff with daily emails summarizing activities. The structure at Little Hoppers has helped our kiddo thrive."

"We have been with Little Hoppers for over 7 years and truly feel like part of the family. We started when our son was 8 weeks old and he continued to go until he started Kindergarten. Even after starting at Kindergarten, we will send him to Little Hoppers on school breaks and over the summer as he loves and misses "Uncle Jim" which shows how much he cares for the kids. When we had our daughter, she attended as well from the age of 8 weeks and has already been talking about how much she is going to miss it when she starts Kindergarten next year. Jim and his staff really care about the kids and it shows by how much our kids are impacted when they aren't able to attend. We feel that they have taken all precautions necessary to keep the kids safe and us informed. Any time we have questions, regardless of the time of day, Jim has been available to answer our questions. I would highly recommend Little Hoppers Daycare and have to several families over the years."
