Early childhood education is rooted in relationships. Children learn best in environments where they feel safe, known, and valued — where care and education are not separate, but woven into every interaction.

​

In a licensed home daycare like The Yoyo House, relationships are at the center of everything we do. Small group sizes allow us to truly know each child — to understand their unique needs, personalities, and rhythms. Here, children are not part of a crowd, but part of a community.

​

Unlike larger daycare centers, where groups are be bigger and staff rotation is frequent, home daycares offer consistency and emotional security — two things that are essential for healthy social-emotional development. Children grow in confidence when they see familiar faces, hear familiar voices, and build trusting relationships with the same caregivers every day.

​

The integrated nature of care and education in a home daycare setting means that every moment is a learning moment — whether it's sharing a meal, playing outdoors, or resolving conflicts with friends. Learning happens naturally, through play and connection, guided by an educator who knows how to support the whole child: socially, emotionally, cognitively, and physically.
 

At The Yoyo House, this integration happens naturally, in a way that is harder to achieve in larger, institutional settings.

​

For families seeking personalized, relationship-based early childhood education for toddlers in Clairemont and nearby areas, The Yoyo House, as a licensed home daycare  is a trusted provider of child development and  offers what many centers cannot:

​

• Small groups for individualized attention

• Strong, secure relationships with consistent caregivers

• A calm, home-like environment that feels safe and familiar

• Integrated care and learning focused on the whole child

• A slower pace, where childhood is respected, not rushed
   

Because the foundation of all learning is feeling safe, seen, and loved, we believe that home daycare is not just a practical choice — but an educational one.
