Our DayCaring Family
Staff
"With love and guidance our DayCaring family shares the goal of helping each child grow to their full potential and become creative thinkers, confident explorers and responsible future citizens of the world."
Genevieve Sollecito, Director
As a Marin County native and mother of two
amazing sons, I have been a proud member
of the DayCaring Family since 2003.
I believe that play truly is a child's work,
and I cherish the view of the world
through the eyes of children.
Love, laughter,compassion, and wonder.
Mud, water, sand, and paint.
These are the things children's days
should be filled with. The stories they tell,
the fun we have, and the lessons we learn
from each other is what drives my
passion for my work.

with our precious littles.

Fairfax community where I've lived
over 40 years,and especially to be

every day because of it.

I am Carmel, a stepmom to two children who were DayCaring kids. I recently moved to Fairfax in 2016 and I am loving our community. I play the guitar, do gardening, and love to do all kinds of crafts. Everyday is a new adventure for me and being with kids gives me the chance to open wider possibilities for them to be creative and curious. I am happy to be part of your child's adventures and the DayCaring Family. |
A Note on Local School Choice
Here in Fairfax, we are fortunate to have many excellent public and independent schools. It is our mission to ensure that your child is well prepared for whichever local school best suits your family. Our students have found success and fulfillment at each of our local school options, and we enjoy hearing about their experiences as they move through their education—and even into adulthood. While we do not endorse specific schools, as informational materials are shared with us from local schools, we pass those along to parents and encourage them to follow-up with schools directly based on individual interest. With love and guidance, our DayCaring family shares the goal of helping each child grow to their full potential and become creative thinkers, confident explorers, and responsible future citizens of the world.
