Jai's family daycare has openings for infant up to 4 years. She has over 20 years of experiences. We are very happy with her and my daughter loves her very much. She's like an extended family to us. She really cares about the kids and emphases a lot on social skills. Jai is the kind of person you meet and feel completely confident and at peace leaving your child with. I highly recommend her.

I cannot say enough good things about Jai. She has over 20 years of experience and has been a godsend to me, a busy mom with no relatives in the area. She took care of my son from 6 months to 3.5 years old, until he started pre-school and she is now taking care of my 13 month old daughter. She takes excellent care of the kids, is very reliable and energetic. The kids loved her. She is hardly ever sick and takes little vacation (perfect for working parents) and is licensed. She is also willing to take care of the kids in the evenings or weekends if you have an engagement or want to have dinner with your spouse. She does this only for the kids in her daycare and their siblings. We are moving out of State in August so unfortunately we’ll have to leave her but we are really going to miss her! She has become part of our family. Contact: Jai, 510-526-8679

I would like to recommend Jai Osatharom’s Daycare which currently has openings. Both of our boys went to Jai’s. One started at 14 months and the other at 6 months and were under her care until they were ready to start preschool. Her apartment is very homey and filled with toys. She also has an outdoor play area. She puts a lot of emphasis on using their words and being polite. There is just enough structure; such as being responsible for their shoes and backpack and putting toys away when they’re done with them. One of her goals is to prepare your child for preschool and she definitely helped our children with this milestone. Even though our kids are in preschool, they happily return during school breaks. We are very fortunate to have had her be such a big part of our kid’s early development. Caitlin & Chris Contact: Jai Osathrom, 510-526-8679

My friend, Jai does home-based childcare business for more than 15 years and she has some openings for infants/toddlers. My children went there until they ''graduated''. She is extremely responsible. I always had peace in mind when my kids were there. She is originally from Thailand and her English is very good. If you have any questions, call her or email me.

My son whent to Jai for one wonderful year. Most of the children (4-6 or 7 children at a time, Ages 1-4yrs old) whom she cares for are siblings of children who have been in her care in the past. If your child thrives in an intimate womby setting, Jai (pronounced ''jay'') is the caregiver for you. She does have a Thai accent, but it does not seem to get in the way. She puts a huge amount of emphases into social skills, empowereing children to use their words,ask for help, say please/sorry/thank you...and ask with words for what they want. Her fee is $150/wk, 7-6pm

Jai’s family daycare has an opening and I would like to recommend her. I cannot say enough good things about Jai. She has over 20 years of experience and was a godsend to me, a busy mom with no relatives in the area. Jai works from her modest 2 bedroom apartment near “El Cerrito Plaza” Bart station, but most of the place is dedicated to the kids with lots of toys and activities for them. She also has an outside play area. My son has been under Jai’s care since he was 6 months old and she’s been great. She takes very good care of the kids; she’s very reliable, energetic, gets down on the floor with them and knows every kid by heart. She remembers everybody’s birthdays and has a gift for the birthday child. I really feel that she loves the kids and thinks of them as part of the family, not as her job. My son is over 3 now and starting preschool. We are really going to miss her! Liliana

My friend, Jai, is looking for children in between infant and pre-K ages. She has been operating this business more than 15 years and very experienced. She is one of the most responsible persons I have ever seen. Both of my children went there and they still want to go sometimes. I think her rate is $30 for a full day and $15 for a half day if there is no change. ( PLEASE double-check the price with her.) She is originally from Thailand and her English is pretty good. If you are interested, please call her. Or if you would like to know specific questions as a parent, you can email me. Rie

My two-year-old daughter's excellent family daycare provider in El Cerrito has an opening for two children between the ages of one and three in her home. She does both full and part time day care. My daughter has been in Jai's care now for a year and a half, and I have only good things to say about the type of setting my child is in. Although Jai (pronounced "Jay") lives in a modest two-bedroom apartment, it is clean, has a nice outdoor play area, and, most of all, the children she watches have become a loving little family. Jai makes many homemade meals, and her daughter Lyn helps with childcare when she comes home from high school each afternoon. The kids are crazy about Lynnie. Many of the children Jai watches have been in her care for years, and some of them, now in elementary school, return for after school care. If you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me. Jai Osatharom's home phone is 526-8679.
