Daycare in Coachella, CA That Feels Like Home
Bilingual Program (English and Spanish)
It is a warm morning on Grapefruit Boulevard. A mom grabs fresh pan dulce from Las Tres Conchitas, the first panadería in Coachella, and buckles her toddler into the car seat. She has one hand on a coffee and one eye on the clock. Work starts soon. Before that, she needs to know one thing: that her baby will be safe, loved, and learning all day. If that sounds like your morning too, you are in the right place. Families all over Coachella trust our daycare to care for their children like our own.
We are Susy's Family Childcare. We run a small, licensed home daycare a short drive west, near Indio and Bermuda Dunes, and we have cared for Coachella Valley kids for more than 20 years. Parents from the Pueblo Viejo murals area to the neighborhoods off Avenue 50 and Avenue 52 bring their children to us. Why? Because we speak your language, we cook real food, and we treat every child like part of the family. This page is all about daycare in Coachella and how we help your family.
Coachella is proud of its roots. You can see it in the colorful Pueblo Viejo murals downtown and hear it in the César Chávez Street shops. Your child should feel proud too. That is why we teach in both English and Spanish every day. Little ones sing, count, and read in two languages. This helps them start kindergarten strong and stay close to their family and culture. Our teachers weave early literacy and language development into play, snack time, and story time, so learning never feels like a chore. Babies hear both languages from the very start, which is the best time for young brains to soak them up.
What are Families Say About Us
Our Daycare and Preschool School Programs in Coachella
Infant Daycare
Handing over your baby is hard. We get it. That is why our infant care is calm, clean, and full of cuddles. We keep our group small, so your baby gets real one-on-one attention. We follow safe sleep rules, we talk and sing all day, and we send you updates so you never feel out of the loop. When your little one starts to crawl, pull up, and babble, we are right there cheering. Our infant daycare for Coachella families gives babies the gentle start they deserve, close to the parks like Rancho Las Flores and Bagdouma where you take them on weekends.
Toddler Daycare
Toddlers are busy, curious, and full of big feelings. We give them room to move and rules that keep them safe. Your child will paint, build, dance, and play with friends. We help with sharing, kind words, and big-kid steps like using the potty. Every day has a rhythm, so kids know what comes next and feel secure. As your baby grows, they move up into our toddler program without missing a beat, because they already know us and we already know them.
Preschool and Pre-K
When your child turns three, big learning begins. Our bilingual preschool for ages 3 to 5 gets kids ready for real school. They learn letters, numbers, colors, and how to be a good friend. We keep screens off and hands busy with blocks, books, art, and outdoor play. As kindergarten gets closer, our Pre-K kindergarten readiness classes help kids sit, listen, write their names, and feel brave on the first day of school. Coachella parents tell us their kids walk into kindergarten ready and proud.
RCOE, CalWORKs, and GAIN Subsidized Care
Good childcare should not break the bank. Many working families in Coachella qualify for help through RCOE, CalWORKs, and GAIN programs. These programs can cover part or all of your childcare cost. We accept these families and we are happy to walk you through the paperwork step by step. If you are heading to work or school and need trusted care you can afford, ask us. We will help you find out what you qualify for so money worries do not stand between you and quality care.
Flexible and Drop-in Daycare
Work in Coachella does not always follow a nine-to-five clock. Fields, packing houses, and festivals all keep their own hours. When your schedule shifts, we try to shift with you. We offer flexible drop-in daycare when space allows, so you have backup on the days you need it most. Just call ahead and we will do our best to make room.
Healthy Home-Cooked Meals
Kids learn better when their bellies are full of good food. We cook fresh, healthy meals right here, not out of a box. Think warm, home-style plates like the ones you grew up on. Picky eaters slowly learn to try new things because they eat together with friends. You never have to pack a lunch or worry about junk food. We handle the meals so you can handle your day.
Safe, Licensed, and Close to Home
Safety comes first, always. We are a fully licensed family childcare home. Our staff is trained in CPR and First Aid, and we keep a low child-to-teacher ratio so no child slips through the cracks. Coachella families who visit Temalpakh Farm or grab birria at Jalisco Restaurant know how much this town values family. We share that same value every single day. We are only about fifteen minutes up Highway 111, an easy trip on your way to work.

Yes. Licensed homes like ours are inspected and follow state rules. Our staff is CPR and First Aid trained, and we keep our groups small for close, caring attention.
Come See It Before You Decide
Photos of a daycare tell you very little. Ten minutes standing in the actual space tells you almost everything — whether the kids look comfortable, whether the person in charge knows their names, whether you can picture your child there tomorrow morning.
Bring your child. Watch what they do when they walk in. Ask about the license, the ratio, the meals, and what happens on a hard day. Then go tour somewhere else and compare, because you should.
