Couldn't say enough good things about Ellen's home daycare. It's a loving and nurturing place for the little ones to grow. Ellen and her staff (Jane and Mary) are very caring, attentive and responsive. They not only care about the kids, but also the parents being like a family. My son had so much fun and enjoyed Ellen's home day care a lot. I highly recommend Ellen's place for your childcare need if you are in the Acton area, and wish you good luck in finding a spot there.

Ellen and her staff are exceptional!
Our daughter started attending Ellens when she was just over a year old in September 2020. We pulled our daughter out of a larger, center-based daycare in the area in March 2020 and were looking for welcoming, home-based care starting Fall 2020. Our anxiety was heightened during this time due to Covid however, the precautions that Ellen and her staff took and continue to take have been exceptional and have made us feel very safe.
Although our daughter attends part-time, she wakes up every morning asking to go to Ellens! Our excitement to go to Ellens each day attests to the welcoming environment that Ellen and her staff have created. They treat each child in a loving manner, as if they were their own, which is extremely reassuring as a parent.
Ellen and her staff fill each day with fun activities and learning experiences. These learning experiences are inclusive to all the kids in attendance! It is amazing to see how they differentiate the monthly themed activities for all developmental stages. Their new outdoor space is fantastic and they take any opportunity to get the kids outdoors multiple times a day!
Communication with families is also fantastic. She uses the Daily Connect app to communicate eating, changing and sleeping notes in real time throughout the day. Her daily picture collages and videos that are shared through the app are also amazing. We love getting these visuals throughout the day as well as showing them to our daughter at the end of the day. Ellen is also very responsive via text and through the messaging function on the app. She communicates monthly themes and changes to specific days/ routines consistently.
We feel so fortunate to have found this community. We have met families that we know will be lifelong friends!

Both of our children have spent their infant and young toddler years with Ellen, Jane, and Mary and we have absolutely loved our experience. They are all so loving and enthusiastic! We love seeing the photo & video updates throughout the week. The team is great with providing developmentally appropriate activities for each child. The outdoor space was renovated in 2021 and is exceptional! During the COVID19 pandemic Ellen has continued to update & follow protocols to help protect our children and families which we have appreciated since #2 started at 3 months old during Fall 2020. When leaving my infant with a caretaker, my hope is that they will love my child as I would in my absence and I truly feel like Ellen, Jane, and Mary do this with consistency. I highly recommend Ellens Home Daycare to parents in the area!
