From six weeks. Naps on your baby's rhythm, not a room's schedule.
Arcola
Arcola and Stone Ridge run into each other. If you're here, this is about as close as in-home care gets without being on your street.
You'll make this drive twice a day, roughly 250 days a year — in the dark, in the rain, and some days with a child who doesn't want to go. Five minutes versus twenty-five is the difference between a schedule that works and one that grinds.
From Arcola it's a short run along Route 50 or the Loudoun County Parkway. Doors open at 6:30, which is early enough to hand over and still be moving east before the road fills.
Same county, too — Anita is registered with Loudoun, so there's nothing cross-jurisdictional to think about.
What you'd be driving to
Three children total, one caregiver, no rotating staff and no room changes. Five minutes is a schedule you can actually keep for three years.
From six weeks. Naps on your baby's rhythm, not a room's schedule.
One to two. Fresh air, block towers, and sharing that isn't optional in a group of three.
The year before preschool, spent as the eldest of three rather than one of twelve.

Anita likes to talk on the phone first, then have you come and see the house. No pressure either way.
