Elsa Childcare is a small family day care located in the hills of Oakland where your child will enjoy top quality care. Elsa is a trusted child care provider and a proud mother of two children. We provide early childhood education for children in a home like environment that will be conducive to a child’s total growth and development. Our program offers care from 3 month to age 5. Our purpose is to build a strong relationship with the child and family and offer continuous care.
