Children playing outdoors in a safe environment

Founded on love, built on trust

Juanita's Daycare Home has been a cornerstone of early childhood care in Lexington, North Carolina for over 15 years. What started as a passion for nurturing young minds has grown into a trusted community resource — a place where parents hand over their most precious possession with complete confidence.

Our home-based setting means smaller groups, familiar faces, and a level of personal attention that large centers simply can't match. Every child here is known by name, understood by temperament, and encouraged to grow at their own pace.

Our Programs

Programs designed for every stage
of early development

Each program is thoughtfully structured to support cognitive, social, and emotional growth through play-based learning in a nurturing home environment.

Infant Care

Gentle, responsive care for babies 6 weeks to 12 months. Individual feeding and sleeping schedules, tummy time, sensory play, and constant one-on-one interaction in a quiet, secure environment.

Toddler Program

Active exploration for toddlers 12 months to 3 years. Language-rich activities, early motor skill development, potty training support, and safe outdoor play tailored to each child's milestones.

Pre-Kindergarten

School readiness for children 3 to 5 years. Early literacy, numeracy, social-emotional learning, and structured group activities that build the foundation for a confident start in kindergarten.

After-School Care

Reliable after-school supervision for school-age children. Homework help, structured recreation, snack time, and a calm environment that keeps the evening stress-free for working families.

Summer Enrichment

Keep learning going all summer long. Themed weekly activities, outdoor adventures, arts and crafts, and educational field trips that prevent summer slide while keeping kids engaged and happy.

Custom Scheduling

Full-time, part-time, or drop-in — we fit your family's rhythm, not the other way around. Flexible hours to accommodate work schedules, school calendars, and unexpected needs.
