I would like to thank you for the pictures of ******'s birthday. These are memories to keep and cherish. Our thank you extends beyond that. I don't think I can put into words but I want to say that both ****** and I feel very lucky/happy to have our two daughters spend their childhood under your care. We think you are role models for them (as well as for us!) Your support, and attention give us strength to keep going with our commitments with our jobs and life in Rochester. Thank you for all of your love and attention....from your friends, ***** and ****

It's so great to see pictures of the kids having such fun! I know you made ******'s day (week, month, maybe :) She loves to splash in puddles just about more than anything else outside. Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks for making her day :)
-
I just walked by the window and saw you giving **** a big hug, what a great thing to see! You were smiling and so was he. You have a special way with kids and your love for them is obvious
-
Heather,
Just a quick note to say, "Thank you for being you!" Your ability and flexibility are very appreciated! I know they challenge you (and me!) but the toddlers really seem to love you...they called out your name with glee when they saw you this morning!
-
Thanks for bringing her into your home with so much affection - she's blooming!!
-
We always have full trust in you , and you are taking an excellent care of *******
- Heather, Thank you for all that you do with ****** and his class. You bring a fresh look in their lives with your funky music and cool games. I know that ****** really enjoys your company.
- Heather Thank you for being so wonderful with **** and ****** especially when they are tired in the evenings! We appreciate you!
- Heather Thank you so much for your care for *****. She really enjoys the time you spend with her. Also we really appreciate the picture book of ***** that you put together. She loved showing it to us
- Hi Heather, I wanted to thank you for three years of love and care for *****. She has a very strong foundation which will go along a long way in her life.
- Hi, Heather. I was just browsing through your on-line photo album and was thinking about you and the kids. I'm so grateful for the pictures and newsletter and daily updates. It sure makes it more tolerable to be away from **** when I know she's so well loved and cared for at preschool. Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks and keep up the good work.
- I never worried one minute about my child while he was in your care. I know he was in excellent hands, he was very well taken care of and loved every day.
- Thanks for the great time with ***** he seems to really enjoy being with you. We're also very pleased with your care.
- Her dad was so impressed today and excited for *******. He and I both really think *** is doing great at your place, even though it has only been a few days !!! ;)
Thanks again for everything you do!
- I had not had a chance to look at your daycare photo website for a long time. Wow! The pictures are great!!! You do such a good job and the kids all look so happy, plus the activities are such fun and full of learning!
- Thank you so much for sharing your days with us through the photo website and videos! It means so much to us!
- My child is always so happy at the end of the day, most of the time they don't want to go home!
- Wonderful experience, Heather is very patient with my child, my child is always happy when I visit and pick them up, I have no hesitation trusting Heather with my child.
- I have seen how much my child has learned so much more than the average child their age.
- My child misses Heather on the weekends!
- Recreational and learning activities are wonderful here. Heather offers a huge library, puzzles, toys, videos, kids dance to music, go to story time, and a weekly theme to base activities around. The kids also do lots of crafts and open ended art projects.
- We are so so happy about *****'s progress and the amount of effort and love you have invested in him. We could not have asked for anything better for him. He has grown remarkably as a child since Feb and we attribute that wholly to the love, affection and bonding he has developed with you and the other kids.
- No words can express how thankful we are for what you have taught ****
- My child loves to stay at Heather's house, they want to go there every weekend and just love being with Heather and Ryan!
- We know our kids are safe and happy we don't worry about them while they are at preschool. Heather engages the kids in educational and recreational activities. She disciplines friendly without harsh punishment.
- We are very impressed with what our child has learned at Heather's house.
- The activities are great! Spanish, music, toys, books, videos, outside, letters, cards, storytelling, dancing, writing, playground activities, coloring and arts and crafts.
- One thank you card cannot give you enough thank you's you deserve for everything you have done for *****. It has been a blessing to have you in ****'s life and I appreciate everything you do! She grows so much everyday and is learning all the time. She is becomming a little big girl everyday and you are also to thank for all the time you spend with her, helping her to grow into a wonderful, respectful happy little girl. **** is so excited to go to school! She can't wait to see you and all of her friends. I love listening to her at the end of each day telling me what fun she had. Words cannot explain how happy she is coming to school everyday! It also cannot describe for me as her mom, how happy I am to see her like that! If every child could spend a few minutes with you they would be very fortunate and lucky for that time. Thank you!
- I am a childcare provider and sometimes need a little inspiration. Boy- you have sure given me that. You're website is amazing! The children look so happy and engaged and your classroom environment is amazing. Thank you for giving me so many great ideas. Keep up the good work!
- I love how thorough and organized you are! I have looked at over 12 home daycares in Rochester and none of them have even come close to what you offer here. You are so involved with the children and really spend hands-on quality time with them!
- Dear Heather and Ryan
- Thank you so much for everything you have done for ****. She really enjoyed being with you. The only bad thing about this experience is that you have set the expectation bar so high that I won't be able to find a daycare/home like yours! Once again, Thanks So Much!
- Dear Heather
- How can we thank you enough for all you've done for *****. I so deeply value and appreciate the positive guidance and constructive environment you provide. You really are a gem! We'll miss you! Thanks for everything-

- I've seen such a difference in my child since they started your preschool. **** is so happy and confident. She loves coming to your school everyday and enjoys telling me everything she has learned when she goes home in the evening.
- Heather and Ryan provide so much more than my child's previous childcare center did! I'm so impressed with the extra activities and extra love my child receives. I'm just sorry I didn't find First Discoveries earlier!
- So many extra recreational activities! Music class, spanish class, Montessori and Waldorf curriculum, field trips, artwork, show and tell, celebration of international festivals, science, outdoor play, learning toys, books and blocks and much more!
- Heather is amazing with the children she does a fabulous job communicating with the parents. We could not be happier.

- Dear Heather, Ryan and Elia,
Thank you for having my friends around. For playing good stuff everywhere. Playing at the park and getting me ready for kindergarten. I liked having partners with **** and loved playing with **** and *****. I liked helping make play dough. I thank you for being there for others. I thank you for reading stories to us. I'm going to miss you when I'm at kindergarten and everywhere. Thank you for teaching us Spanish and music. I had a good time at Heather's house and we played fun games.
Love, ****
A 5 year old Preschooler
- The girls love coming to your house and we are so lucky to have found you!
- My child really enjoys Heather and Ryan. They say this daycare is so much more fun than the other one. My child seems really happy there. Fondly talks about friends played with and activities participated in that day and is all smiles at drop off time.
- My child loves the walks to the park, books, toys, Spanish and Music class and lots of outside time and insects studies.
- Heather and Ryan are great- My child loves going there!

- Thank you for all you do with ******. He loves coming to school and learning and dancing!
- Dear Heather and Ryan
I am trying to put into words how grateful we are to have you in ****** life. In the chaos of our transition to Rochester, you have been a steady source of loving care for ****. We are so thankful that she has had the opportunity to come to your school! We are amazed how her imagination has blossomed and how much she has grown in the short time she has been with you. **** and I are in constant amazement about how you do it!
Thank you so much for the healthy food, the dancing, the fun crafts and projects, the little notes pinned to her clothes, the blog, the pictures, and instilling in **** a love of learning and nature! A very heartfelt thank you!
- Dear Heather and Ryan, We really miss you! *** still remembers you, she asks me when we are going to visit you. She goes to a preschool in PA, she learns a lot but we really miss your fieldtrips!
- Thank you for taking such good care of ****, she loves you!
- We cannot thank you enough for taking care of our little ****** during the day and teaching him all about the world around him. He loves going to your house in the morning and telling us all about his school adventures.
