Testimonials
I am writing to highly recommend Galina Galant and Happy Kids Daycare & Preschool for their exceptional home daycare services. Over the past two years my child, Austin, has been under the loving and attentive care of Galina. I have been consistently impressed by the nurturing environment, the well-structured activities, and the genuine concern for each child's well-being.
Galina and her teachers create a warm and welcoming atmosphere where children feel safe and valued. They provide home cooked organic meals, a variety of indoor and outdoor activities, music and movement class, are multilingual, have excellent hours and are reasonably priced. My child has thrived in this environment, developing both socially and academically.
Galina ensures that each day is filled with fun and learning opportunities that cater to the interests and developmental stages of the children. My child always looks forward to attending daycare and often comes home excited to share new experiences and skills.
Communication with parents is another strong point of Happy Kids Daycare. Galina regularly updates us on our child's progress sending pictures throughout the day of daily activities. This provides peace of mind, knowing that our child is in good hands.
I wholeheartedly recommend Galina Galant and Happy Kids Daycare & Preschool to any parent seeking a trustworthy, nurturing, and stimulating home daycare. The positive impact on my child's growth and happiness speaks volumes about the quality of care provided.

We're incredibly fortunate to have found Galina and Happy Kids Daycare. They were recommended to us through a family friend who runs her own daycare in San Francisco for many years. Happy Kids is a Russian speaking daycare but it provides English preparation for preschool. They provide music courses as part of the curriculum and offer a variety of delicious healthy foods and snacks every single day. Galina and her staff are warm, friendly and absolutely LOVE the kids as if they're their own. Our son loves going to daycare and has made a lot of new friends that he tells us about every day when we pick him up. The kids get daily outdoor play time, do arts and crafts projects and they do quarterly performances that are shared with the parents to watch their kids sing, dance and tell poems. I can't say enough good things good things about Galina and Happy Kids Daycare.

Hello all... If anyone is looking for daycare in the San Mateo area, I would highly recommend Galina Galant at Happy Kids Daycare. Our kids have transitioned to her daycare about 3 months ago. We love Galina so much! She is great with our kids, she is prompt to pick them up daily from school, she takes to the park, tutors them with homework, and makes sure the kids eat healthy snacks. She also makes sure the kids are ready for practice and pick up everyday. I am also very lucky to get pictures everyday of how much fun the kids are having.
I was so timid sending our kids to a new day care and trusting someone new, although Galina is AMAZING!!!! She loves our kids as they are her own. She is also very professional and flexible.

My 4.5 yo daughter has been going to Happy Kids for 7+ months now and we are super happy about this daycare! My daughter was never happier about her preschool and it's never a problem in the morning (with the previous daycare she never wanted to go there, and every morning was a trouble).
There is a genuine atmosphere of kindness and care there that not many places have. The way my daughter speaks about her teachers with love and admiration tells me a lot. And it's the best proof for me that we made the right choice.
She also talks a lot about tasty breakfasts and lunches she is having there - which is surprising, since at home she is a very picky eater. After a month there she started eating oatmeal for breakfast and now actually asks me to cook it at home - amazing! And I hear a lot from her about healthy snacks that include fruits and vegetables such as bell peppers and carrots.
Finally, it's a big plus for me that even though it's a Russian immersion place, it has an English-speaking teacher who comes to teach kids some basics of reading and math.
Couldn't be happier and highly recommend to everyone!
We couldn't be happier with the care our daughter receives at Happy Kids Daycare. After our previous daycare struggled to manage her sleep routine and asked us to leave, we were worried about finding a suitable replacement. Galina and her team welcomed us with open arms and treated us like family from day one. They truly care about the kids, providing a loving and nurturing environment that has made a world of difference for our daughter. My daughter loves to go there and looks forward to it every day. We are so grateful for the peace of mind that comes with knowing she is in such capable and caring hands. Highly recommend!
