Licensed Since 1996
For nearly three decades, we’ve been committed to going above and beyond state regulations to deliver exceptional care. Our goal is simple: to help children grow in confidence, build strong social skills, and develop a lifelong love of learning while giving parents peace of mind.
Healthy Bodies, Healthy Minds
Children learn best when they’re fueled with healthy food. That’s why we provide CACFP-certified meals and snacks daily, including breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snacks. Menus are balanced, kid-friendly, and designed to support energy, focus, and growth.
Every child enjoys meals carefully designed to meet nutritional guidelines while keeping flavors kid-friendly and enjoyable.
We take dietary needs seriously, offering substitutions and safe alternatives to support children with food allergies or sensitivities.
Our breakfast, lunch, and snacks are created to provide steady energy and focus, helping children stay engaged throughout the day.
By introducing a variety of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains early, we encourage children to build lifelong healthy eating habits.
Words from Our Families
At Bay Area Child Development Center, we believe the best measure of our success is the trust and happiness of our families. From peace of mind to lasting friendships, hear what parents have to say about their experience with us.
I absolutely love this daycare for my children! When my daughter first started, she had a tough time transitioning, but the staff was always reassuring. Now, after two years, she enjoys it so much that she sometimes doesn’t want to leave! They adore all their teachers. Knowing my children are happy and well cared for brings me peace of mind every day

We couldn’t be happier with Bay Area Child Development Center! The staff is truly AMAZING to my Elio — very caring, attentive, and always going the extra mile to ensure that each child feels comfortable and loved. You can tell they are passionate about what they do, and it shows in how they interact with the kids. The environment is warm, welcoming, and safe, which has given us complete peace of mind.

My son has been going here since he was about 6 months old and i have loved it there. Teachers are very understanding and help you with any transition you may be wanting for your child. The director Mrs. Shelby and the office manager Mrs. Amanda are so kind, very reassuring and are always open to hear any concerns. Highly recommend.😊
