Bridgette was incredibly responsive and on top of every DMV detail throughout the entire process. Any time an issue came up, she knew exactly what needed to be done and guided us through it quickly and clearly. Her knowledge of the industry and the dealer licensing process is outstanding, and it showed at every step. If you're looking for someone who not only provides excellent educational services but also truly helps you navigate the real-world challenges of getting licensed, I highly recommend Bridgette. She knows this industry inside and out and is a tremendous asset to have in your corner.

Around 10am it was sunny out now it's back…read moreto being gloomy and raining every so slightly, but enough to wet my glasses and a need for some mini windshield wipers. This weather has brought me inside to shied myself from the rain. The Department of Education is located on the Corner of Capital Park near the rose garden. It was built in 2002. It is the first state office building to incorporate an underfloor air-distribution system and is the state's first design-build office building. At least 25% of the building includes recycled materials, the lobby's marble floors were salvaged from the Library & Courts Building, circa 1923. They received the Leed Gold in 2003 for being a U.S. Green Building. In 2006 they received the Leed EB Platinum award. What does that all mean? The California Department of Education's green building efforts align with the California Green Building Standards Code (See Title 24, Part 11). This code sets mandatory measures for public schools and community colleges, covering energy efficiency, water conservation, material use, and environmental quality ICC Digital Codes. As an example, new or major renovations must meet specific performance standards for lighting, HVAC, insulation, and site design. For more information google cal green info. It's got nice architecture. Next time I'll take some pictures of the architecture. Today I just focused on the public space inside, the lobby. The lobby is toasty warm compared to the outside and there is a nice sitting area on the side of the wide-open windows. The windows are nearly floor to ceiling. To keep you safe they have a stand for purell hand sanitizer, but at the same time there is a sign that says don't touch the artwork. On the outside walking in there is a warning that weapons and all sharp objects are prohibited. They have 2 giant murals up. Transforming California Schools: Superintendent's Initiatives and the 50th Anniversary of the individual with disabilities education act. They have a small sign about Save Our Water. If you are a visitor you are instructed to sign in with security with a photo id. Jud Fine is the creator of the artwork in the lobby. It's of a beautiful lizard and a ball or pendulum hanging from the ceiling.

Why is the website so archaic and unnecessarily complicated that it was more confusing than my advanced calculus final? What gives? And no phone number or even chat function. Email form to get any question answered. In the private sector this would never happen. Because no one would ever work with a private company that made working with them so difficult. I have been a Vice President in the private sector. Why is it more difficult to become a substitute teacher than it was to get a VP level job? This is insanity. No wonder people don't want to do this. Months to get it done, and every step is a bureaucratic, nonsensical, not user optimized pain machine. It would be funny except people have to deal with this horrible agency and website for their jobs! Worse yet, I could recommend 20 developers who for $50k could optimize all this and have it done in a week which would make all these problems go away. But no. It's the state, so they'd probably spend $5mm and still get it wrong.

The staff is very attentive and caring, and they always make sure the kids are fed and well taken care of.

The staff is completely unqualified, inattentive, and unable to provide even basic supervision. Children were left without proper care, and it was clear that no one was paying attention to their needs or safety. The owner is extremely unprofessional, rude, and seems to care only about making money rather than providing a safe, nurturing environment for children. There was absolutely no sense of compassion or responsibility. This place caused trauma for my child, and I would never recommend it to anyone. It was a horrible experience from start to finish. Stay far away.
