Casa Lala

★★★★★Liz Copeland

I wholeheartedly recommend Casa Lala to any family looking for an excellent, caring, communicative, and safe daycare, aftercare, or camp for your children! I currently have my two kids in their daycare program and aftercare program and my eldest also attend one day camps and summer camp. The leadership and staff are wonderful, kind, and responsive and my kids have the best time everyday. The field trips and activities during camp are tremendous and both kids have benefited from the Spanish instruction. As a parent, you make lots of decisions - big and small - everyday. Sending my kids to Casa Lala is one of the best choices I’ve made as a parent!

We are so grateful for all the ways that Casa Lala cares for our children! Highly recommend CL's aftercare, one-day camps, and summer camps -- Casa Lala is part of our family at this point, and we consistently return year after year. Our oldest loves it so much that he asks to be the last person picked up from aftercare every day. Summer camps are full of field trips and fun activities for the kids. Lala herself is such a caring, skilled leader -- we know our kids are in good hands with her at the helm. The Casa Lala team has more than earned our trust, respect, and gratitude over the years, and they go above and beyond in so many ways. We appreciate that they also pick up both of our kids from school to bring them to aftercare. They are also always open to feedback and very responsive to parents. Five stars aren't enough!

My son loves Casa Lala! The teachers are nice, and he's made a lot of new friends who don't go to this school, which I think is great for his socialization. Casa Lala is truly a lifesaver for parents when school is out of session but work isn't. The only downside is that they don't offer lunch/meals, but that's nothing a Lunchable can't solve. The staff is organized, and they know all of the kids by name, even if they only come for one day.

Casa Lala has been such a blessing to our family. We moved from out of state and our son was having trouble connecting with new friends. A teacher recommended Casa Lala for aftercare and it was amazing. He blossomed and made friends, created art projects and was just so much happier. On one day camps he is out front greeting everyone! We started sending our daughter once she was old enough and now I joke they know everyone. We go to the park and they start playing with kids they’ve met from Casa Lala. I highly recommend. The staff is highly attentive and the programming is top notch. The kids shout out with excitement when we see a Casa Lala van driving around DC. It’s the little things like that to affirm the kids are as happy with the program as I am.

Casa Lala has been a huge support to us for years as we navigated living in Northwest but having children in school downtown at Mundo Verde. Don’t know what we would have done without it! But it’s not just been a transit help and a place to watch the kids, it’s been a home filled with more Spanish, creativity, energetic play and warmth. Our daughter in particular has loved making crafts and art there for years and will miss it when she ages out, I’m sure. Lala has continually grown and shaped the program to be better and better (including the wonderful camp experiences and field trips) and has always been responsive to our needs when we raised concerns. And the staff is wonderful - each one shows so much genuine affection for the children. It’s a great place.
