"We were so thankful to have such a loving and caring place to take our daughter to while we were at work. Emma started at Grace Iino when she was 4 months old and stayed until she was about 2 1/2. The Center's convenient location, good hours, and wonderful staff made the transition to being working parents so much easier. In fact, since Emma is our first child, the Center really helped us with things like how to potty train her, too!” --Dean Matsubayashi & Kim Kawaratani
Update as of November 2011: Grace Iino Child Care is now fully enrolled. To find out about the waiting list, please contact Rocio Hernandez, Grace Iino Director at (213) 617-8596.
