I’m very grateful for the experience my son had in preschool at Hakuna Matata. It was his first time attending daycare, and in the beginning it was hard for him to stay, but the teachers were incredibly supportive and caring. Having cameras in the daycare also helped a lot—when I left him crying, I could later see him happy and engaged with his teachers and classmates.
My son grew so much during his time there. The teachers were the ones who helped him transition out of diapers, and they showed great patience encouraging him to eat his meals. At home he can be a bit picky, but at daycare he started eating everything. He would always arrive and leave with a smile.
Unfortunately, we had to change daycares because we moved, but we will always keep beautiful memories of the year he spent at Hakuna Matata. The teachers and staff were always helpful, kind, and willing to support us. Thank you very much for everything!

We joined Hakuna Matata after a recommendation from a family member who works in reviewing childcare centres. No regrets! Everyone here treats each other like family. All the teachers and centre leadership know each child by name. They support your child’s major milestones. They keep us up to date with monthly calendars and newsletters specific to your child’s classroom. The optional live feed program was also great to relieve new-mom anxiety when you’re first introducing your child to daycare. Overall great experience. Will continue to keep my daughter and future children in this centre!

My 3 year old daughter went to Hakuna Matata Child Care Center and was in preschool class. I am thankful for getting a spot at this center. Below are the reasons I like this center:
1. Her teachers were very kind and loving.
2. In-house cooked fresh meal.
3. Very clean and secure premises.
4. Facility to see your child online while your child is at the Center
5. Disciplined routine for the kids.
6. Fun activities for kids around festivals.
7. Devoted and accountable owners
The nap time was quiet time on bed, and my daughter didn't want to nap every day, so she was given toys and coloring papers on bed. This helped her to keep busy during nap times. I also started waking her up earlier in the morning so that she would be sleepy around nap time, and it helped a few times.
I am thankful and would highly recommend this Center.

I’m really disappointed with my experience with this daycare’s enrollment process. I received a call letting me know there was an open spot and we scheduled a tour for the very next day. I rearranged my schedule to make it work, only to be told the morning of the tour that the spot had already been given to someone else.
At no point was I informed that the spot was being offered to multiple families or that it could be taken before my tour. If I had known, I would have acted faster or asked for an earlier tour. This lack of communication felt unprofessional and left me feeling misled and inconvenienced.
Families deserve transparency when it comes to something as important as childcare spots.

I’m so glad I chose this daycare for my daughter. She was very strong-willed in the beginning and cried a lot during her initial days, but the teachers’ patience and care helped her adjust beautifully. Now she enjoys going so much that she even misses daycare on holidays! The warm, homely atmosphere, along with the excellent hygiene and safety standards, gives me peace of mind knowing she is cared for like at home. A heartfelt thanks to the Toddler 2 teachers and the management for making this journey smooth not just for her, but for us as parents too.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Hakuna Matada Childcare! From the very first day, the staff made us feel welcome, supported, and completely at ease. It’s clear that they truly care about every child and go above and beyond to create a warm, nurturing, and safe environment.
Our child has absolutely thrived here — socially, emotionally, and academically. The daily activities are creative, engaging, and thoughtfully planned to encourage development in all the right areas. We especially love the frequent updates, photos, and open communication. It really helps us feel connected to what our child is doing and learning throughout the day.
What stands out most is the genuine love and passion the caregivers have for their work. They’re not just “watching” kids — they’re helping shape little hearts and minds with kindness, patience, and dedication.
Great job Vinay and team for such an amazing daycare!!
We are so grateful to have found Hakuna Matada Childcare and couldn’t recommend it more highly. If you’re looking for a place where your child will be loved, challenged, and cared for like family, this is it.

My son spent 2 years at this daycare and has thoroughly enjoyed being part of the program. Their biggest asset are the educators who are extremely caring and invested in the child, they make the effort to know each child and bond with them and not just treat their profession as a job.
Other Pros : They have an in-house kitchen unlike a lot of other centers.
Camera access is always handy to watch your child and be involved in their day.
The administrator and the owners always welcome feedback and take the time to connect with families. They are also extremely particular about security and access to the center.
We will always be grateful to Hakuna Matata for nurturing our child.

Hakuna Matata Child Care Center was recommended to me by a friend; I just took a visit, felt the positive vibes, and registered right away. That day, and today being the last day of my daughter at the day care, I remember the journey of two and a half years being very nice and smooth. The staff was always very welcoming. No questions went unanswered. The center was always clean and well maintained with a bright and cheerful setup. I was always confident about leaving my child in good hands while at work. I am so very happy to have selected this place, which stands out for its exceptional customer service and high-quality environment.

We’re so grateful to this daycare for giving our child a spot when we needed it most, and on such short notice. From day one, the staff have been caring, professional, and truly attentive to his needs.
What stood out the most is how much confidence our child has gained since joining. He used to be very shy, especially around other kids, but now he talks and interacts comfortably with children his own age. It’s been amazing to watch him grow socially and emotionally in such a supportive environment.
Thank you for making such a big difference in our child's life! Highly recommend to any parent looking for a nurturing and reliable daycare.

We’ve had a wonderful experience with this child care! When my daughter started at just 1.6 years old, the live camera access gave me so much peace of mind—I could check in anytime and see how she was doing.
The center is always very clean, well-organized, and structured. The teachers are kind, patient, and caring, and they really make an effort to connect with every child. They also follow a clear daily schedule, provide healthy meals, and even introduce early learning activities, which is amazing for kids as young as 2–3 years old.
I truly feel my daughter is safe, happy, and learning every day. Highly recommend this daycare!

We’ve had a wonderful experience with this daycare! The facility is always clean, bright, and well-maintained, with spacious rooms that give the children plenty of space to play and learn. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming — you can tell they truly care about the kids.
One thing I really appreciate is how well-managed everything is. The management team is always on top of things, from communication to daily routines. The drop-off cutoff time of 930am helps keep the day structured, which has been great for keeping my child on a consistent schedule.
Another huge plus is the live stream camera access. Being able to check in and see my child throughout the day gives me so much peace of mind, especially during the early weeks of transition.
Overall, I highly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a clean, safe, and well-organized environment for their child.

Our daughter joined the preschool program at Hakuna Matata last year, and we've been extremely happy with the experience! Entire teaching-administrative staff is warm and friendly, the environment is fun and nurturing, and we've seen amazing growth in her language, independence, and social skills.
What really stands out is how well they prepare kids for the next stage — it’s more than just daycare; it truly feels like a preschool that builds a strong foundation for Montessori or kindergarten.
Thank you to the amazing team for making such a positive impact on our daughter's development, Highly recommend!

We have been very blessed to have our son at Hakuna Matata Daycare Center. When we first had to put our son in daycare, as you can imagine, we were very nervous to leave our son in the hands of someone else. But with the staff, Mr. Vinay and his wife, we felt comforted knowing that they were providing the best care they could. Also know that they are parents just like us, we felt validated and understood when we had any concerns or questions. It’s also very helpful that they have a live camera feed in each class which provides the extra sense of comfort. So thank you to Hakuna Matata and their staff.
