Green Day Care is a baby and toddler's oasis! Nurturing, neat, colorful, small, safe and sunny with a great outdoor space, Tsering Yangchen's facility is a place where day care feels like a gift to give your child. My 1 year old is thriving under Tsering's tender, attentive care--learning sign language, increasing his spoken vocabulary through songs, books and play, socializing with others, and even discovering how to play on his own. Tsering gives ample attention to each child (up to 5), makes sure everyone is well fed, hydrated, stimulated, and rested throughout the day, gives each child time on her lap and lots of hugs, goes on daily walks, and passes on her calm, loving demeanor.

Some things to know: snacks and drinks are provided but meals and formula are not. Prices are competitive. Tsering's kind husband lends a hand from time to time, holding babies or playing with the kids. Tsering keeps a good relationship with the adults, too--she is flexible, fair, approachable, and honest. I give her my highest recommendation and a great deal of respect.

Currently, Green Day Care has space for full or part-time children 12 months old or older. Check out her website, then give her a visit: www.tseyanggreendaycareelcerrito.com/index.html

I highly recommend Green Daycare!! Tsering Yangchen and her wonderful husband Jampa started this brand new home daycare this summer. My daughter started there full time in August when she was 4 months old. I was very hesitant about leaving her with anyone when I went back to work, but I know that Tsering is the best daycare provider that we could have. Our daughter absolutely loves Tsering and is always happy and playing or being read to when we come to pick her up. Tsering is very accommodating and has worked with us around our personal requests. She is a very caring and nurturing woman who takes the children on walks, sings songs to them, teaches them colors and shapes, and baby sign language! I even get a picture message or a text letting me know how our daughter is doing throughout the day. You can tell that she loves our daughter as well, and we feel very assured while she is in her care. Call her so you can come and visit!! Tsering- 510-610-1711 green-daycare.com

An Enthusiastic Recco for GREEN DAY CARE

Ever since I first met Tsering more than 5 years ago, it has been her dream to run her own family daycare. This fall she opens her home and her arms to welcome your child to Green Day Care.

I am a mother of 3 who was fortunate enough to have my two youngest children blossom under Tsering's care. Today they are confident, kind and share without hesitation.

The children followed a daily routine that was predictable, yet never boring. We often joked that we were sending them off to ''the Baby Spa'' where they would be indulged them with music, art and even the occasional massage. All this was within the framework of regular naps, healthy meals and age appropriate limits. I credit Tsering entirely or shaping them into great nappers, adventurous eaters and respectful listeners.

I remain so grateful that our family has been blessed with Tsering in our life. Now it's your chance! With the highest regard for children, she will love your baby like her own and be your blessing too. Susannah

I would like to recommend Tsering Chen and Green Day Care, a new home based day care in El Cerrito. Tsering cared for my daughter (along with two other children) for 2 years since she was 4 months old. She was the most loving and hardworking nanny that we could have ever asked for. In addition, she had a special gift for connecting with children. While babies, the children's days consisted of singing, stories, outings and baby massages. No matter what the activity Tsering was always finding subtle ways of teaching them about the world around them.

Over the years we became very close with her wonderful family. She has a very loving husband and two great sons. Green Day Care offers care for children age 4 months to 4 years old, from Mon-Fri 7am to 6pm. Her home is newly renovated and well arranged for the children's care. Tsering is CPR, First Aid and pediatric certified. I can assure you that your child will be in a loving, stimulating and happy environment. Joelle
