About Us

We are two sister-in-laws who felt the need for a small, high quality, peaceful, caring,  family owned After School Program. So in October 2009 we decided to open Maxi’s After School Program and by Feb 2010 we had our first clients. We have been very happy with that decision from that moment on. We both take so much joy from doing this. It feels great to see a child be excited to come to Maxi’s and feel right at home, to be able to provide a safe environment for the children, with the two of us  right there making sure everyone is treated with kindness and respect. It is wonderful to observe how children take so much joy out of learning.

 And Maxi is Auntie Fariba’s little dog, who all kids fall in love with and remember his name before our names. He is very good with children and loves their company.
