Christine is amazing!! So happy we decided to hire her to tutor our 6 year old with his reading. We…read moremoved to Lafayette over the summer and received feedback from my son's 1st grade teacher that his reading was below grade level. We is a young 1st grader, a middle child, and had been in a french school environment, so it was not a surprise for anyone. The teacher didn't think we needed to seek outside help just yet, but I decided to see how a session with Christine went anyways. We got into a routine and have been seeing her weekly for the past 6 months. My son LOVES Christine days!! And.. he is now beyond 1st grade reading level. More importantly, he is confident with his reading and really enjoys it. Thank you Christine!!

Just to update - my son is now entering his senior year at a private college prep high school.

I credit the many hours he spent with Christine as critical in our journey. Early intervention makes an enormous difference.

We've been part of the Kidz Planet family for six years with our two children, and we can't say…read moreenough great things about this school. The teachers and staff are caring, patient, and truly invested in every child. The school is well-run, communicates regularly through the app with updates and photos, and hosts fun family events throughout the year. We also have to mention the food--our son graduated two years ago and still says Kidz Planet had his favorite meals! We're so grateful for the love and care our family has received over the years and highly recommend Kidz Planet to anyone looking for an amazing preschool.

She would come home every day singing new songs and excitedly sharing the games she had learned at school. As first-time parents navigating the daycare world, we couldn't have asked for a better place than Kidz Planet. Celia and the team were nothing short of amazing. One thing that really stood out was their communication system. Whether it was for security updates or general news, their consistent updates and the photos they shared were incredible. It made us feel so connected to her day--we'd review the photos together and talk about everything she did. The level of detail and care in their communication was truly unmatched. Thank you again to the entire Kidz Planet team. Our daughter misses you all so much!

The teachers are uniquely caring, patient, and organized. They've built a warm, safe space where our sons have truly blossomed into more confident, independent, and happy little boys.

It is a non-profit and run by veteran educators and people who are passionate for Chinese/Taiwanese culture. It takes a village to run education and my top reasons for staying at this school are below. 1. The curriculum: It is well thought out and one of the teachers actually designed and wrote the textbooks! I absolutely love it. They also offer Traditional or Simplied textbooks so parents can pick their preference. 2. No affiliation with religious groups: Some Chinese schools in the area are affiliated with Churches or other religions and my family isn't religious. So this school makes the most sense for us. 3. Parental involvement: We love parents here help out, volunteer and chip in to make the school run better. The principal and his wife have dedicated their life to run the school and parents/volunteers help bring the school forward. What is most important to us is my son enjoys learning and can understand Chinese. He has picked up quite a lot and enjoy coming here every Saturday. When I just recently took him home to Taiwan, my parents were impressed with his Chinese and can communicate with him. To me, that is a major plus!
