At Lona Child Care, we celebrate the special bond between our devoted team and every little one in our care. Our experienced and compassionate caregivers make it their mission to offer individualized attention—whether through cuddles, playful interactions, or simply being there to share in every smile and giggle. We create a cozy, “home-like” setting where each infant’s unique routine, nutritional needs, and special requirements are thoughtfully honored.
Ms. Tara also practices baby signs to encourage early communication . If you’re looking for a place that blends safety, personalized care, and an environment full of love and discovery, we warmly invite you to visit Lona Child Care and see how we nurture your child’s growth every day.
