As a full-time working parents with two little girls under 3, finding the right daycare was incredibly important to our family. My oldest daughter, was part of the Happy House family from age 1 to 3, and. My little one is still there. I am highly recommend Ashley’s Happy House daycare! 🩷 I have always believed that before anything else, children need to build a strong foundation within themselves. Feeling happy, safe, loved, and secure, and having teachers they can trust, who are responsive and easy to communicate with, are the most important things when choosing a daycare for my girls. Happy House has given us exactly that. Ashley offers so much more than just childcare. She is incredibly attentive, 細心, patient, 有耐心, and loving, 有愛心. You can truly see how much she loves children and animals, and how much thought and care she puts into everything she does. My daughters have learned and grown so so much at Happy House. From crawling to walking, from babbling their first sounds to speaking their first words, bilingual, Mandarin and English. Prepared them to the preschool day by day. The teachers at Happy House have played such an important role in every little milestone. One of my daughter experienced some speech delays before turning 2, and Ashley and her teachers were incredibly patient and supportive. They consistently encouraged her to communicate and express herself every day. I am so grateful for the extra love, attention, and encouragement they gave her. Another thing I absolutely love is Ashley’s home-cooked meals. She prepares nutritious meals every day and provides a wonderful variety of fresh fruits for the children. My girls have never been great eaters at home, but surprisingly, She eats so well at daycare! At her 3-year-old checkup, her weight was at the 40th percentile. I am genuinely thankful that she has been so well-nourished and cared for at Happy House. As a mom, it is such a relief knowing my children are getting healthy, nutritious meals every day. As working parents, one of the greatest gifts is being able to go to work with peace of mind, knowing our children are in such good hands. The kids are well-fed, have so much fun playing, and learn so much along the way. One of my favorite things is picking my girls up and seeing her happily playing and interacting with the other children. Those little moments really say a lot about how comfortable, confident, and happy she feels there. Daycare creates a wonderful sense of community (Parents group) gives parents opportunities to stay connected, and engaged with each other while picking up their children. This is something truly special. Thank you, Ashely and Justin for being such a special part of my girls’ early childhood years. We are truly grateful for all the love, patience, dedication, and care you have given our family. Happy House really feels like a second home for my 2 girls! 🩷🩷🩷🩷

Sending Evelyn to this daycare was the best decision we made. She learned so much, grew immensely, and was always genuinely happy. Even now, we still visit a day or two every month because Evelyn gets so excited to see Teacher Ashley and always raves that Ashley’s meals are the absolute best! She still surprises us with new things she says, and when we ask where she learned them, the answer is always, 'Ashley!' We couldn't be more grateful. Highly recommend!

We’ve had a great experience with Happy House Daycare over the past year. The teachers are caring, responsible, and genuinely love the children. Our child is always happy to go to daycare and has made great progress in many areas. We also really appreciate the homemade meals — our child eats very well there, which gives us a lot of peace of mind. The teachers share plenty of photos every day, and communication is always timely and smooth, so we always know how our child is doing. We’re very grateful for all the care and support from the teachers and would highly recommend Happy House Daycare!

We’ve been with Happyhouse since our son was 13 months old, and he is now 2 years and 8 months. We have had great experience here. The teachers are loving and patient, they really know and care about him. His language has grown so much, he is now a super talkative boy who sings songs, tells us about his day, and has become much more independent. We love hearing him come home with new Chinese and English words and songs. Most importantly, he is always happy to go to school. Happyhouse really feels like a second home to him. ❤️

With good teacher-to-child ratio, the teachers really know each child. They notice the little things: how they’re eating, sleeping, feeling that day, and what habits they’re working on. They don’t just supervise the kids; they actually sit with them, play with them, talk to them, and patiently teach them. I especially appreciate how they help the kids develop good everyday habits and independence without being pushy. The daycare is also always clean and organized, which was very important to us. I feel comfortable dropping my child off in the morning knowing he’ll get plenty of attention and be well taken care of throughout the day.

During My daughter‘s time here at Happy house daycare, we watched her gradually grow from a shy little girl into a much more confident, happy, and outgoing child. We truly believe that so much of this growth came from the sense of security, patience, and genuine care she received from her teachers every day. Ms. Ashley, the director, and Mr Justin, Ms. Katherine, Ms. Alexia and Ms Zhang are all extremely caring. At pickup, they would often share funny stories and little moments from our daughter’s day, which always made us smile and made us feel like they genuinely enjoyed spending time with her, rather than simply taking care of her. We also loved so many aspects of the daycare itself. The Chinese meals are delicious and wonderfully varied, and our daughter got to try so many different foods here. The backyard has a great variety of toys and play equipment that are frequently changed or updated. Looking back, we feel so fortunate that there happened to be a spot available when we first toured Happy House and that we decided to enroll our daughter. She spent such a happy and meaningful chapter of her early childhood here. Thank you,Happy house family!

We brought our youngest here at one year old after struggling with our previous daycare, and it’s been transformative!!! From day one, Happyhouse treated him like their own child. They understood his food allergies and cooked amazing meals for him, something we never had elsewhere. The teachers are genuinely patient, caring and fun, and they go way beyond daycare. They’ve built a real family relationship with us, and our son has made so many good friends here. The facility is excellent, they always renewed toys and play equipment, great thoughtful activities, and they send photos throughout the day so we always know what’s happening. Honestly, our son has thrived here. He’s gained weight, grown taller, sleeps well, and even behaves better than he does at home. It’s heartbreaking that we had to leave, and we genuinely miss them. Everyone here is amazing. They deserve all the recognition in the world. I couldn’t recommend them more highly.

We are incredibly grateful to Happy House Day Care and especially to Ashley and Justin for the wonderful care they provided to our son from 1.5 to 2.5 years old. One of the things that stood out most was their bilingual curriculum. Through daily activities, songs, story time, and conversations, our son was exposed to both English and Chinese in a natural and engaging environment. It was amazing to see how much language development and confidence he gained during his time there. The bilingual approach helped him build a strong foundation while making learning fun and interactive. The daycare also offered a variety of enriching activities, including arts and crafts, music, outdoor play, and educational games that kept the children engaged and excited to learn every day. We could tell that Ashley and Justin put a great deal of thought and care into creating meaningful learning experiences. Another highlight was the homemade food. The meals were always fresh, nutritious, and delicious, which gave us great peace of mind knowing our son was being well cared for throughout the day. Ashley and Justin created a warm, loving, and safe environment that truly felt like a second home. They treated every child with patience, kindness, and genuine care. We are thankful for the positive impact they had on our son's early development and highly recommend Happy House Day Care to any family looking for exceptional childcare and a strong bilingual learning environment.
