Age-Appropriate Programs for Every Stage

Infant Care
Ages 8 weeks – 12 months
Our infant care program in Gaithersburg gives your baby the gentle, attentive care they need in those crucial first months. With small group sizes, your infant receives individualized attention, sensory exploration, and responsive caregiving that supports healthy attachment and development.

Our toddler daycare program nurtures curiosity, language growth, and social skills through hands-on play and structured routines. Children in this group benefit from our bilingual daycare setting, naturally absorbing both English and Farsi as they explore, create, and connect.

Our preschool program prepares children for kindergarten with early literacy, math concepts, and creative arts — all delivered in a nurturing home setting. As a bilingual daycare, we give Gaithersburg, Rockville, and Germantown preschoolers a head start in two languages.
What Makes Nahid Child Daycare Different
Families from Gaithersburg, Rockville, Germantown, North Potomac, Montgomery Village, and across Montgomery County choose us for reasons that go beyond licensing.
-
Bilingual Farsi & English Environment
Children at our bilingual daycare grow up hearing and speaking both English and Farsi (Persian) naturally. Research shows that early bilingual exposure builds stronger cognitive skills and cultural awareness — a true gift for life.
-
Home-Cooked Meals & USDA Food Program
Every meal and snack is freshly prepared in our kitchen and follows USDA Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) guidelines. No packaged cafeteria food — just wholesome, nourishing meals made with care.
-
Small Groups & Individualized Attention
As a licensed home daycare, we maintain intentionally small group sizes so every child receives the one-on-one time and responsive care they deserve. Your child is never just a face in a crowd.

A Typical Day at Nahid Child Daycare
Every morning begins with a welcoming circle time where children greet each other, sing songs in both English and Farsi, and ease into the day with a sense of belonging. Structured learning activities — including early literacy, art, and sensory play — are woven throughout the morning, followed by healthy home-cooked meals and a restful nap time tailored to each child's schedule. Afternoons bring outdoor play in our safe backyard, creative projects, and storytime, giving children a healthy balance of energy and calm before pickup. Nutritious snacks keep little ones fueled all day, and our warm, home-like atmosphere means your child feels comfortable, confident, and ready to explore.
