Norwalk, California

Your child deserves a home, not just a facility.

At Santos Family Child Care, every child is known by name, nurtured with intention, and raised as part of our own family — because the earliest years shape a lifetime.

A warm and safe childcare environment

Family

First, always. Every child is treated like our own.

About Us

A place where children are cherished, not just watched.

We provide a safe, structured, and stimulating environment that encourages curiosity, builds confidence, and fosters the social and emotional skills children need to thrive — both in the classroom and in life.

Our Services

Care that grows with your child

Infant Care

Gentle, responsive care for babies from 6 weeks old. A secure bond with a consistent caregiver builds the foundation for lifelong emotional health.

Active exploration through play, language, and movement. We nurture independence, curiosity, and the social skills toddlers need as they discover the world.

Preschool Prep

Building the skills that matter most — literacy, numeracy, focus, and social confidence — so your child enters kindergarten ready and excited to learn.
