History
Maria Teresa's Babies Started as a home day care center in the Aurora Highlands Neighborhood just a few blocks from Pentagon City in 1989. In 2005, we purchased an old home along 23rd Street in the same neighborhood and with a massive remodel; we opened our enrichment center with a Spanish immersion program and our healthy mind/healthy body philosophy. This remodel included many safety features for a daycare center including having a state of the art sprinkler system, 24-hour Carbon Monoxide Monitoring System, Fire Alarm monitoring system and everything required by State and County regulations. We also added a humidifier for the entire building that works in conjunction with our heating system so that children will be comfortable during the dry winter months even if this was not a requirement by the State or the County. We strive to make the children as comfortable as they can be. This is truly a home away from home.
