Ms. Ariana and her team are the best! She is so loving and provides so many great opportunities for the child’s overall development. They do all the stuff you’d normally think of like singing, dancing, reading stories, art, outdoor play, and learning colors, ABCs, & 123s. And then also so much extra – they do yoga, meditation, Spanish, and baby sign language. They provide wholesome, nutritious, home-cooked food and provide lots of love and attention to each child. And they even share daily pictures and videos with parents so we can see what our little ones are up to while we are at work. My daughter went there for almost a year, and we could not have been happier. Such a lovely daycare 🙂

My son has been going to Natura for about four months now after being referred to us by a friend who happened to be one of Ariana’s first children when she opened her business. My son acclimated very well to daycare and has already learned a lot of skills in the few months that he has been there. Natura also posts a lot of Instagram stories on their private parents-only account so we can check in to see what our kids are up to throughout the day. We see what they eat and the activities they take part in. There is plenty of variety and I can see that the children are learning colors, the alphabet, music, cooperating with each other, etc., and there is plenty of playtime outside.

We have so many great things to say about Natura and Miss Ariana. First, the space is amazing – I wish we had an outdoor space like theirs! Our son and his buddies genuinely seem to love playing outside. Next, Miss Ariana runs a smooth running ship. Important updates are given through the app, naps, snacks, and meals run like clockwork, she is strict about her illness policy (which is great, especially now), and our little guy never came home with unexplained injuries. Even during drop off and pick up, she focuses her attention on the kids instead of chatting with parents, which is a great policy that we really appreciated. If we ever needed to communicate something, she was readily responsive and available by phone or email.

It was a nerve-wracking experience when it came time to find a daycare for our daughter and we are so thankful we found Natura. Our daughter has been attending every day for nearly a year and from the first time she walked in she has been totally at home there. She loves the staff – Ariana and Carla are wonderful and her face lights up to see them – and has made good friends who she talks about every night. Our daughter takes a real joy in counting, singing the alphabet and going through colors – and she’s not even 2. We have been really thankful to have found Natura, as we have such a trust in the staff and the friends our daughter has made there.

Our child has been attending Natura ECD for almost two years since he was just over a year old. Ariana and the other teachers have always been great with him and all the kids. He learns so much everyday. He loves playing dress up with all the costumes and jumping on the trampoline. He is exposed to and even eats tons of food that he won’t try for us at home. He’s learned to be polite and share with his friends. We definitely feel safe and confident leaving our little guy with Natura everyday knowing that he’s going to be learning and having fun.

We feel so fortunate to have found Natura! My daughter is almost 2 and has been going to Natura four days a week since February. All the teachers are wonderful and I’m constantly amazed by how much she is learning there. Ariana and the rest of the staff have been very responsive to all our needs and I know that they genuinely care about all the kiddos. My husband and I feel so grateful that our daughter’s first experience with a “school” environment has been so overwhelmingly positive. But most importantly, it obvious how much she loves it there. She is excited to go to every morning and runs in the door with a big smile on her face!
