About Us – Fairfax's Trusted Daycare
Welcome to Little Heaven Daycare, where nurturing care has been a cornerstone for two decades. My name is Aline Santiago, and for the past twenty years, I’ve had the privilege of providing loving care for the children entrusted to me. Supported by my amazing family, I’ve pursued my passion for childcare since 1995. Here’s what that means for Fairfax families: you’re getting a trusted provider who’s been around long enough to know what really works. At Little Heaven Daycare, we offer quality childcare in a warm and loving environment, catering to children aged six months to four years old. Whether you’re coming from down the hill near Manor School or up near the Fairfax Cascades, we welcome you. Fairfax parents love that we’re just a short drive off Sir Francis Drake Boulevard — easy to reach when you’re juggling the morning rush. Honestly, we’ve built our reputation one Fairfax family at a time, and that connection matters to us. We hear this a lot: “I wish I’d found you sooner.” And we’re just glad we can be here for your little one.

CARING
ENVIRONMENT IN FAIRFAX
Little Heaven Daycare fosters a caring environment, adapting to individual learning styles with visual, auditory, tactile, and kinesthetic educational tools for holistic growth. In Fairfax, where creative, outdoorsy families thrive, we blend structured learning with the kind of hands-on play that matches the community's spirit. Think sensory bins with local pinecones, story time with books about Marin's redwoods, and a cozy setup that feels like home — because for Fairfax kids, learning should feel natural, not forced.

Just a safe, calm environment where Fairfax families can feel completely at ease dropping off their little ones before heading to work or running errands around town.
FAIRFAX HOME DAYCARE
Little Heaven Home Daycare is devoted to surpassing the educational expectations, guaranteeing that every child reaches academic success within the comfort of a home-based learning environment. Fairfax parents value that personal touch — the kind you just don't get at big corporate centers. We're small by design, so every child gets real attention. Whether your kid is exploring the alphabet or learning to share toys, we meet them where they're at. It's the Fairfax way: personal, connected, and built on trust.
Little Steps, Big Leaps in Fairfax, CA
Our Toddler Journey program paves the way for toddlers as they explore sensory discovery and grasp the wonders around them. Tailored engagement ensures strong bonds and honors individual milestones. Our spaces brim with books chosen to spur language and speech development. Creative expression flourishes through finger painting, music, and pretend play, while structured activities strengthen their burgeoning motor skills. When they graduate from this program, they emerge with a Bright Beginning, ready to embrace the grand adventures ahead. For Fairfax families, this means your toddler gets a slice of that small-town magic — even as they build the skills they’ll need for preschool. We’ve seen Fairfax kids go from shy to confident right here in our living room. It’s a beautiful thing.
