Reflections and Resolutions at Wendy's Daycare in Murrieta

The beginning of a new year is a meaningful time at Wendy’s Daycare in Murrieta. It’s a chance to reflect on a year filled with learning, growth, and special moments including the joyful Christmas celebration we shared with our children and their families at the end of the year and to look ahead with intention and excitement. As a trusted home daycare serving Murrieta, Temecula, Menifee, and Lake Elsinore families, we are grateful for the relationships we’ve built and the traditions that bring our daycare community together.

Our Resolutions for the New Year

1. Continuing to nurture children in a safe, kind, and supportive environment: At Wendy’s Daycare, creating a warm and welcoming space is always our top priority. We are committed to continue providing a calm, loving home daycare environment where children feel secure, respected, and encouraged. From infants through preschoolers, each child is supported emotionally, socially, and developmentally, allowing them to grow with confidence, curiosity, and independence.

2. Providing nutritious, farm-to-table meals that fuel growing bodies: Healthy nutrition plays an important role in early childhood development. That’s why we proudly serve balanced, home-cooked meals and snacks each day. Our menu focuses on wholesome ingredients and kid-friendly flavors, including farm-to-table recipes featuring fresh eggs from our very own chickens. Families appreciate knowing their children are enjoying meals that are both nourishing and thoughtfully prepared.

3. Delivering creative and engaging lesson plans: Learning should be joyful, hands-on, and inspiring. Our 2025 lesson plans took children on exciting journeys—from butterflies to dinosaurs and everything in between—sparking curiosity through stories, crafts, science activities, music, and play-based exploration. Looking ahead to 2026, we’re excited to expand on our children’s favorite topics while continuing to embark on new and exciting themes. By building on what kids love most and introducing fresh ideas, we keep learning engaging, meaningful, and fun. Our lesson plans are designed to support early literacy, problem-solving skills, creativity, and a lifelong love of learning.

4. Celebrating everyday moments: While milestones matter, we believe the everyday moments are just as important. Whether it’s learning to share, mastering a new skill, or building a friendship, we celebrate the small wins that help children grow in confidence and joy. Encouragement, positivity, and laughter are part of daily life at Wendy’s Daycare.

   
   

Reflecting on a Joy-Filled Year

As we look back on the year, our hearts are full of gratitude. We are truly honored to support families throughout Murrieta, Temecula, Menifee and Lake Elsinore and we deeply appreciate the trust parents place in us to care for their children during these important early years.

Enrollment remains strong, with only a couple of highly sought-after daycare spots currently available. This reflects the close-knit, family-centered environment we’ve created and our commitment to consistent, high-quality childcare for local families. Your referrals are most appreciated to fill these spots.

One of the most meaningful highlights of our year is our annual holiday celebration, a tradition we’ve proudly continued for the past eighteen years. The photos shared here (from Christmas parties past and present) capture the joy, excitement, and sense of community that make these moments so special.

What makes our holiday celebration especially meaningful is that it welcomes parents, kids and old daycare families to reconnect. Our biggest celebration of the year is one we share together. Welcoming parents into our daycare environment strengthens relationships, builds trust, and creates lasting memories for children and adults alike. Watching children proudly celebrate alongside their families is one of the most rewarding moments of our year.

At Wendy’s Daycare, holidays are more than celebrations because they are also learning opportunities. We intentionally incorporate holiday-themed lesson plans into our curriculum to spark excitement and curiosity. Seasonal stories, crafts, music, and age-appropriate discussions help children connect learning with real-world experiences in a way that feels fun, engaging, and memorable.

A Look Ahead at 2026

As we move into the new year, we look forward to continuing our traditions, expanding our curriculum, and creating even more meaningful moments with our daycare families. Our commitment to providing high-quality childcare, nutritious meals, engaging lesson plans, and a supportive environment remains stronger than ever.
