A Montessori-Inspired DayCare & Preschool

Our Approach

Our primary goal is to keep your child safe, healthy, and happy with loving care from infancy to preschool.

At JamaJaz, we provide a loving, nurturing, safe, and clean place for your little children to be when they are not with you. We love holding, snuggling, and nurturing little babies. Being with toddlers brings us great joy, as we love to watch them explore, grow, and learn new things.

about us

For You, With You

We love to talk to mommies and daddies about their children. We want parents to be as much a part of the JamaJaz family as they would like. Our facility is very flexible with scheduling so that working parents need not worry if they want to pick up their child early or need additional care for a special situation. We understand that these situations arise, and we are here to help!
JamaJaz aims to create a home-feel environment for each child. Being very child-centered, we maintain a fluid structure to the day that is easily adapted to the needs of a child at any moment.

What Parents Think

My family loves JamaJaz! Our son, Copper, is almost 8 months old and started attending JamaJaz when he was just over 3 months old. We met with them while I was pregnant and was very nervous about daycare for our baby. After one meeting, all my nervousness went away and we were so excited to have found such a loving and caring place.

Copper gets really excited the mornings he goes to JamaJaz and is a very happy boy when he comes home.

My daughter went here from 3-4 years old.  She loved it and finally made some friends. She is on the spectrum and the administration was very accommodating allowing her aide to come with her and adding visual aids support for her.  We are sad she out grew the daycare on a permanent basis.  We still have her coming for drop-in or school breaks.  She still loves it.  We had her 4th birthday party there.

…As a first-time parent, I was worried about where my daughter would be spending her days while I am at work. Of course, in the beginning, every morning felt like a Monday: my baby would get stranger anxiety and tear up when I handed her over. Now, when we get to JamaJaz she recognizes the faces, smiles and gets so excited! Venetia, and especially her staff, provide a loving and fun environment for the kids…
