Our son was enrolled here for a year until we had to move for work. We enrolled our son here when he was 3 months old and he absolutely loved it. He was excited to see his teachers each day, he learned a bunch of stuff as well. The staff was always friendly and accommodating to his needs. They also took extra caution when it comes to the health and safety of our son. We would recommend this place in a heartbeat we were sad to move away.

I highly recommend Happy hearts! My oldest just graduated from the 4s class and is off to kindergarten. My youngest started in the baby room and has moved up to the 2s class so we have experienced care through all ages and have been impressed every step of the way!The teachers are caring and kind - my youngest often doesn’t want to leave at pick up! My oldest has learned so much in the 3s and 4s room and I have no doubt about his preparedness for kindergarten. He is able to write his name, count to 100, recognize all letters and is even starting to spell and read. The teachers also helped potty train my youngest!The facility is well kept with plenty of toys and games for the kids to enjoy. We love the parties for all occasions and they really go above and beyond to provide a fun environment for the kids. The splash days in the summer are a big hit!The rates are super affordable and the quality of care is excellent. A winning combination.

I am so grateful to have the opportunity of sending my child to Happy Hearts for two years. I loved this place and so did my child. As a parent I deeply appreciate the staff being nice and caring, and the Director really cares about the children and works with the parents. I’m grateful for their hours. The facility is well thought of, rooms separated to keep the ages apart, but structured so that the teachers are able to help each other out. My child was happy and that made me a happy parent. I recommend it to all parents in the Herndon area.?

Happy Heart is the best! We have two children (3yr old and 1 yr old) who have been attending since they were 6 months old and they both love going there! We are blown away how much the kids have learned as well. The teachers and ownership are professional and have been flexible with our schedule. The facility is clean and tuition is affordable. They are the complete package. I highly recommend.

We started at Happy Hearts in the pandemic quarantine and loved it so much that we placed our six month old there. Unlike any other daycare, they let you stop in at any time to sit with your kids. They serve two meals and two snacks. all with vegetarian options.

As a lead teacher for the babies room, I have seen our students go from learning to sit, eat, walk, and finally graduate on Friday. It has brought so much joy to me to see them grow and flourish with each passing day. I feel an overwhelming sense of pride in seeing their transition. All the hard work of teachers and cooperation of parents has brought them to this point. I wish the kids best of luck for their future endeavors.

We couldn't be happier with Happy Heart Children’s Center, a place that has become a second home for our toddler over the past year and a half. From the moment we brought our then three-month-old to the infant room, we knew we had found something truly special. The staff's warmth, dedication, and genuine love for children shine through in every interaction, making it a nurturing environment for our little one. Since then, our child has transitioned to the toddler room with ease, and we’re very pleased with the caregivers in this room too!The caregivers at this childcare center have gone above and beyond to create a safe and engaging space for our toddler to grow and learn. Their expertise in early childhood education is evident in the thoughtfully planned activities and age-appropriate curriculum they provide. It's amazing to witness our child's development as they eagerly explore new concepts and skills, all under the guidance of these incredible teachers. We also appreciate their efforts to celebrate diversity, especially as a multicultural family with a biracial child. They also do a great job of updating an app to keep us informed of daily activities, upcoming events, food intake, naps, etc.The facility itself is well-maintained, clean, and equipped with age-appropriate toys, books, and learning materials. The outdoor play area offers ample space for exploration and physical activities, ensuring children get plenty of fresh air and exercise. We feel reassured knowing that our little one is in a safe and stimulating environment.In summary, we highly recommend Happy Heart Children’s Center to any parent seeking a loving, nurturing, and enriching environment for their little one. The dedicated staff, tailored curriculum, and the sheer joy our toddler experiences make it a truly exceptional place. We are immensely grateful for the positive impact this center has had on our child's early years and look forward to many more cherished memories to come.

My child attended this daycare for a little over 3 months, started in the infant room and moved to the toddler room. We did not have a positive experience. One of my biggest issues with the school was the security. The front door was never locked, it didn’t matter the time it was always unlocked, and there were many times when I walked in that there was nobody at the front desk. My child was constantly left in his dirty diapers for well over the 2 hour change period. Typically changed after 3 hours so it was a constant struggle with diaper rash. He contracted hand, foot, and mouth within his first 2 weeks, when I notified the school they felt they didn’t need to notify the rest of the parents in the infant class because supposedly nobody else was showing signs. The toddler room was ran more like a baby sitting service and lacked any type of educational components. My final straw was I picked my child up from school and as usual his diaper was dirty and face a mess and when we got into the car he started crying when he saw a sippy with water in it. Stopped crying as soon as I handed it to him which was odd. When I got home I found his water bottle in the bottom of the bag still full from the morning.

My 8 month old son has been attending Happy Hearts since he was 12 weeks old. All of the teachers in the infant room are loving and kind with the babies. I drop him off every morning knowing he’s well cared for. I most enjoy the structure to his routine that he has been given. I also enjoy seeing Miss Hinna and Miss Naghma when I drop him off and pick him up because they tell me about his day and how he’s doing. My baby loves coming here and smiles as soon as he sees his teachers.

My son attended Happys Hearts for a year and a half. We would have stayed but we moved to another state.I loved the school and his teachers so much. His teacher Ms. Antoinette and Ms Saira we amazing. Their teaching style and curriculum were definitely made to make sure my child was ready for the next level. The directors Ms Azmat and Ms Lakshmi were very welcoming and always assisted to the highest level possible. The rates were the most affordable in the area and they also did pickup and drop offs to the elementary schools in the area. Thank you ladies so much for everything. You will be missed and I truly wish you all the best. Thank you

Nov 2022 update: My kids love Happy Hearts! My baby is 11 months old and nearly jumps out of my arms every morning because she's so excited to go into her room. We love her teachers - Hina and Naghma are great and very organized. It's a calm and safe environment for littles. I would recommend it whether you have a newborn, toddler or preschooler.2020: My boys have been going to Happy Hearts for a year and love it! The great hours and affordable cost plus morning preschool are why we chose it. My kids were previously at a daycare that (at 1 and 3) they hated. It was amazing to see the transformation when we came to Happy Hearts. The older one adores his teacher and missed her so much during the shutdown. The younger one yells "YAY!" every time we turn into the parking lot and races into his room every morning.The teachers are all great and I am very impressed with how they relate to the kids. My husband and I have been thrilled by the progress my older son has made in writing and math. I love that it's a diverse community and my kids get to know a variety of people. I would definitely recommend this daycare!

Both my daughters went to Happy Hearts starting from infant program so I have been a regular at Happy Hearts for last 5 years. The teachers are very caring and excellent at handling children. Both my kids were comfortable and happy going there. They loved the well designed daily activities and the good food. The owner is very active in the day to day operations to ensure quality and knows all the children by name. I would highly recommend Happy Hearts!!!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience at Happy Hearts! Ms.Hina and Ms.Nagnma make us feel like our baby is their absolute favorite. They do a great job of communicating with the parents and taking the time at the end of each day to tell us how our baby did. They know and understand the personalities of each child. As a first time mom I was nervous to select a daycare, but dropping our baby off in such great hands where I know she is loved and loves to be is so reassuring. Our daughter claps her hands when we walk down the halls in the morning and is always reaching out for her teachers. Happy Hearts is truly a special place and we are so lucky to have found it!

I have used this daycare for a little over 7 years, for all 3 of my children. I remember when I was originally searching for a daycare with my first born. I had visited 3 other centers, but when I walked into Happy Hearts I just knew this was the right center. They have taken excellent care of my kids the last 7 years, from infancy through pre-k, and now with virtual learning also!!The staff has always been amazing, I can literally feel the love they have for my boys. Always so excited to see them, and concerned should they have to miss a day due to illness. The curriculum they use is high quality, and comprehensive. When my 1st son went to kindergarten, I knew he was more than ready due to what he learned in Pre-K at Happy Hearts. I have no doubt my two younger sons will also be ready when they make the transition from preschool to elementary school. Happy Hearts owner, Azmat Ahmed, and the staff also have been incredibly flexible with my schedule. As an RN my schedule changes every week, sometimes more than once, and they always worked with my schedule...priceless!! The pricing is extremely competitive, to be honest, the best I have come across for the peace of mind this center provides me and for the love they selflessly give to my kiddos!!I have recommended family & friends to Happy Hearts, and I will continue to do so. If you are looking for a daycare/preschool I am telling you this is the place!!
