"Sunshine Day Care is a wonderful place for your child to be cared for taught important life skills. My son Love has been going there since he was 6 months old and I have never had to worry about him and have always gotten updates and pictures. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure your child is safe and is always coming out a better child daily. Staff is always quickly updating and alerting of any daily changes or fun activities for the day. Your child will always leave with a smile on their face and you wont regret enrolling your child here."

"We started Sunshine New Britain Home Daycare when our little one was just 6 months old. Cris made the transition easy and comfortable for me as a first time mom. My little one is now 14 months old and he enjoys going to daycare to learn and socialize with his friends. Communication is great and I enjoy the photos and videos sent. I know my little one is safe and care for."

"I truly cannot praise Cris (the owner) highly enough. She has been absolutely wonderful with helping our young daughter thrive and grow over the past year. Cris prioritizes creative activities, music, dancing, and fun for all her kids. She is like a second mom to my daughter while I must be at work, and I’ll always be grateful! If you have the opportunity to bring your child into Cris’ care, do not hesitate. She is a wonderful person and treats the kids like her own. Check out her instagram (same name as the daycare). God bless."

"Miss Chris is the best, she is so passionate and loves children. My girls went on vacation to see my parents. Whenever they come back, will surely check in with her to see if she has any opening. My girls miss her and talk about her. She is a good mum to the kids."

"Sunshine New Britain Daycare is truly the best daycare ever! I am more than grateful that my boys got to experience the amazing care they did from Cris! She is very caring, loving, and as involved and excited for every one of their milestones no matter how big or small. It truly feels like home at Sunshine Daycare. If you get the chance for your little one to attend here, TRUST ME you won’t regret it ❤️"

"Miss Cris is amazing! My son was with her for almost 2 years. She is very sweet and kind to the kids, my son absolutely loved her so much and would be excited to go to “school” everyday. Her home daycare is beautiful and well taken care of with different play areas inside and outside! She does try to do lesson plans and crafts with the kids. She even helped me potty train my son! I absolutely love her and her home daycare and would have stayed even longer but I wanted my son to start preschool and prepare him for kindergarten. I would recommend Sunshine to anyone!"

"I couldn’t be happier with this daycare!! Both my children love there! My son started when he was around 4yo and my daughter started when she was 10 months old. Cristiane is a great caregiver, always attentive, kind and you can tell she loves what she does!! The kids follow a routine that includes playing/interacting with other kids, nap time for my daughter, learning activities and lunch/snack time, which I truly appreciate it!! I highly recommend it!!"

"If you are looking for a place where your child will be safe and happy, then Sunshine Day Care is the best place for you. Being at work, I don't worry about my son because he is constantly getting updates on what he is doing at the moment. Sunshine day care understands how important a routine is for a child, so they use a special application to let you know what your child is doing at a certain moment, which is a great help to continue this routine over the weekend. Christiane is like a part of the family to us and her love for children in daycare is noticeable as soon as you see her! this is not a daycare this is a paradise for children !"
