A Home Full of Heart
Owen Family Childcare has been a trusted part of the Redlands community a real home where children are known by name, celebrated for who they are, and given the space to grow.
Why we opened our home
We are a mother/daughter partnership for our Home Childcare-Preschool. My Name is Janeil Owen and my daughter is Joy Owen. Our business Owen Family Childcare was born from a simple belief: every child deserves a safe, loving, and stimulating place to spend their days. We opened our home because we wanted to offer something different — a small, intimate setting where children aren't just cared for, but truly known.
What sets us apart from other Home Childcare's is our backyard vegetable garden and fruit trees. The children love healthy veggies Gardening wasn't an afterthought — they were part of the vision from the very beginning. We believe children learn best when they're connected to the natural world, and there's no better classroom than the one that grows right outside your door.
We are licensed by the State of California and committed to maintaining the highest standards of safety, health, and early childhood education. Every detail of our home and program has been thoughtfully designed with your child in mind. We like to prepare babies/toddlers for the next step in growth to be wonderful, thoughtful, caring individuals.
Our commitments to your family
Licensed & Safe
We are fully licensed by the State of California. Our home meets all health, safety, and fire regulations, and we maintain current CPR and first aid certifications.
Small & Intentional
We keep our group small on purpose. We have 3 adults for 12 Children. This low child-to-caregiver ratio means every child receives individual attention, care, and connection every single day.
Nature-Connected
From our vegetable garden to our fruit trees, nature is woven into everything we do. Children learn patience, wonder, and responsibility through hands-on outdoor experiences.
Play-Based Learning
We follow a play-based philosophy rooted in early childhood research. Children learn through exploration, creativity, and meaningful relationships.
