What Parents Say

We in love 🥰
We've been with Kolibri daycare for over 2 years and loved it a lot! Home made food, very kind and nice owners, I could ask my questions any time I needed. We had great holiday celebrations with them where kids were performing for parents with poems, dances and songs. These are one of the sweetest memories from the daycare. The New Year celebration was always a big hit! Besides, there was a good educational program where kids were taught the abc's and they were doing crafts and arts a lot. During the first months while my son was getting used to the place, we were always in contact with Elina and Alina to be sure that everything is fine and he got used to the place very fast despite us thinking it would take longer and would be more painful. Really greatful for a couple of years when my son was taken good care of!
I took my youngest daughter to this Daycare for several years and have never regretted my choice. Children in this Daycare are always surrounded by care and attention. Children are always clean, well-groomed and fed on time. Every day, the entertainment program for children is alternated with the Educational Programs. Children are taught to draw, write, read, children sing, children learn poems, songs, dance, walk together. The food was always at the highest level, all the products were organic and every day everything was cooked fresh for the kids. In a word, the atmosphere in the Daycare was such that the children were given peace of mind, knowing that they would have a good day there. I recommend this Daycare for young moms and dads, where you will not know any worries about how your child spends the day.
A Loving and Enriching Daycare Experience! Kolibri Daycare was an incredible place for my daughter for several years, and I can’t say enough good things about it. This family-owned daycare truly feels like a second home. The warmth, kindness, and dedication of the staff create such a nurturing environment where children feel safe, loved, and encouraged to grow. One of the standout aspects of Kolibri is its bilingual program. The way they seamlessly incorporate language learning into daily activities is amazing, giving children a wonderful foundation in multiple languages while keeping learning fun and engaging. The memories we’ve made at Kolibri are priceless. From the thoughtful activities to the personal attention each child receives, it’s clear that the staff genuinely cares about every little one in their care. The love and effort they put into creating a welcoming and enriching space shine through every day. If you’re looking for a daycare that feels like family, where your child will thrive in a warm, bilingual environment, I highly recommend Kolibri Daycare. It’s truly a gem!
Our family is really happy with this daycare! The staff is caring and attentive. Our child loves going every day. The facility is clean and well-organized. Communication with the staff is excellent—they always keep us informed and address any concerns promptly.
