About Us

Like you, I worried about who would take care of my children

Having a baby brings great joy to the family! But when both parents work a question arises: who is going to take care of the baby while we work?

That was the question that prompted me to start this project many years ago... Who would take care of my baby so I could work?

Of course we looked for a Daycare, but after having a terrible experience in one, and with a heavy heart, we decided we should do it differently.

Let me tell you a little more...

Since I was a child, I had a passion for teaching children. I even had a group of little ones that I taught with the help of some relatives who brought me books so I could teach them. I also spent my free time taking care of my neighbor's children... And I was the one who asked her to do it!!

When I had my first daughter I had a lot of trouble finding someone to take care of her. I went from one place to another looking for a good place and in one of them she was mistreated by one of the people who worked there.

By the time I had my second child, my husband and I decided that it would be best for me to stay home with the children so we could be sure they would be okay. So we did and I decided to get my child care license in 1995.

That's how I started this beautiful journey. The first year I had two or three children in my care. Then I had to move to another city. With a lot of fear of starting from scratch, I reopened again, now in West Covina, and in the first month I was completely full thanks to the recommendations of the parents of the wonderful children in my care. They were all very happy with the treatment and care their children received and I was (and am) happy to be able to serve so many people doing what I love.

From that moment until today the quota has remained full and I have always had a waiting list. Nowadays it is not only me. I have 6 people helping me, as well as my husband. All together we make this dream possible every day.

Likewise, my heart has remained full of small and big experiences every day that allow me to grow as a caregiver, as a mother and as a woman.

Thank you very much to all the families who have trusted me for such an important task: the care of their little ones.

Founder & Director

All my life I have been passionate about teaching, educating and caring for the little ones.

When I was faced with the need to find someone to take care of my little ones while I worked, we did not have good experiences... But as everything bad has its good side, that led us to create this wonderful space that has been home to hundreds of children over the years.

Sowing love and knowledge in the hearts of the little ones to build a bright future.

Rating of 4.9 on Yelp!

My wife and I are very pleased to have found Lorena’s Family Day Care. It has only been three weeks since we started taking our one year old daughter and we feel she is safe and in good hands while we are away. We also like the fact that Lorena provides only home cooked meals and has activities that will keep our daughter busy throughout the day. We could not have asked for a better place to care for our daughter.

Thanks to Lorena and her assistants!
