Nancy's Hearts & Minds Childcare

Established in 1991, Nancy's Hearts & Minds Childcare has provided quality childcare for families on Los Angeles' westside for over three decades. Our program was founded by Nancy Felix, who began with a small, family-oriented setting for six children and has grown to accommodate up to twelve children aged 15 months to 3 years. We prioritize creating a nurturing environment where children's basic needs are met alongside personalized care tailored to their age, development, and temperament. Our philosophy centers on learning through play, environmental interaction, and positive guidance. Nancy's educational background in English, Forestry Science, and Early Childhood Education informs our approach, which emphasizes social development, creativity, and structured yet flexible routines.

We maintain a safe, stimulating space that encourages both structured activities and free play, incorporating music, art, and age-appropriate themes chosen collaboratively with children. Testimonials consistently highlight our warm, family-like atmosphere, reliable care, and the positive impact on children's confidence and social skills. Our flexible scheduling options accommodate full-time and part-time needs, with transparent pricing for morning and full-day sessions. We remain committed to continuous learning, with Nancy currently enrolled in creative writing courses for young children to enhance our curriculum. Our testimonials reflect deep trust from families who credit our program with providing invaluable social experiences and developmental support for their children.
