Michelle C & Melinda have been just fantastic to deal with on the admin side. Michelle is always so quick to answer any questions, helped us out a ton, she's awesome. The teachers: special thanks to Ms. Ellen, Ms. Kiersten, Ms. Amariya, and Ms. Jasmine. Ms. Cheryl, Mr. Joey, Ms. Angelica, Ms. Lena, Ms. Rai are all fantastic and been a pleasure getting to know them. Our kids will miss them all, they have been so fantastic. Shout out to Mr. Chris too for all he does. I hope COA knows how great this team there at Oceanside, they really care and made a big impact with our kids.

They always have fun events and things going on, last nights Christmas party was the best so many activities for the kids! Snow sensory tables, writing letters to Santa and pictures with Santa!

Her experience has brought so much joy to all of us, very grateful for Ms. Diana and the whole team!

This school is an absolute dream for my children. I know that the other school families would agree…read morewith me. My children look forward to Mondays. AAALC has recruited the most incredible teachers. The class sizes are small and the instruction is very individualized. As a professional working in schools and a mother of 3, I have encountered many schools claiming to individualize the curriculum, but this tends not to be the case. AAALC creates classes based on the academic and social/emotional level of your child. They have highly experienced staff on sight that can tutor your child if needed. Each semester your child can choose from an out-of-the-box selection of electives and the school events are wonderful! I am beyond grateful that my children are growing up in such a positive environment that truly fosters the love of learning!

If I could give this place no stars, I would. My daughter attended this establishment at 9 months…read moreold in 2021. Due to COVID, parents were not allowed to go in to drop off or pick up so I never really saw what was going on besides the horrible video camera access they advertise. In the infant room, babies were "rocked" in their cribs for nap by the teachers using their body to bang the crib on wheels against the wall. There were few times the teachers were actually interacting with the babies. Even the director, Megan, would step over the babies and not acknowledge them. This was my daughter's first time at a child care facility and the directors told me it could take a few months for her to get use to the new environment. About a month in they gave me a bullet list implying my daughter was special needs. I took the note to my daughter's doctor, and she dismissed the idea. They are not professionals that can diagnose and yet they were doing that to my then 10 month old daughter. She then was moved to the one year old room and things did not get any better. Her teacher tried to tell me to let her be more independent at home and let her play alone. I am at work all day without my daughter and I was being told I couldn't give her attention... The food that was given to the kids could never be explained where it was from or what they were serving. Things were given to the kids that are a big no for one year olds (whole grapes, popcorn, sliced bread) and the teachers did not watch the kids while eating. They were either on their phones or their backs were turned away. When I questioned the directors on things I saw on camera, they always made excuses for the teachers. Oh and don't ask questions because then you'll be kicked out without notice, which is what happened to us. Never once heard or saw the owner either. He is just collecting everyone's money. This place was a horrible experience.

This school has been a wonderful experience. Great facility that is well kept. Very warm and…read moreinviting classrooms. Very large and safe playground areas. A webcam system that is secure and works well. Really great curriculum that keeps the kids having fun and learning. They come home with some really cool and creative arts and crafts projects. The decorations for holidays and parties that parents are invited to attend, pumpkin decorating, book fair, Kona Ice day, water days in the summer, story time soccer camp, picture day, all these are done very well and with the kids in mind. Really great inclusions that the kids really enjoy and look forward to. There is a syllabus of the curriculum that you can follow and the kids really do learn a lot. The best part of the school is the staff. They employ educators who really enjoy their jobs and being around the kids and treat the kids wonderfully. Melissa and Meghan in the front end are super friendly and excellent communicators. The classroom teachers are all great with the kids, Ms Jackie and Ms Ruth are just to name a couple that our daughter loved playing with. Picking out a daycare/preschool for your children can be incredibly stressful. I have looked at many to find the right one and tiny turtles is perfect. The price is a little more than others we had looked at, but we are very happy we chose tiny turtles. It includes healthy meals and snacks and milk. I'd rather pay a few dollars more a week to know my kids are in the best environment possible for them. I've personally recommended this school to all my friends who have young kids, which many of them have since enrolled. Hope this was helpful.

My class credit became useless when the teacher left, and I thought it was a no-brainer to transfer that credit to another class, especially since I mentioned it to the owner while signing up over the phone. Yet, that didn't happen. Then, the workshop I took a day off for was canceled because I was the only participant. I understand things happen, but a sincere apology or an attempt to make it right would have meant a lot. It's not just about the credit or the class; it's about feeling valued. I hope that they use this as a chance to really connect with and take care of their community.

Teresa or what the children call her affectionately "T.T." Is the most effective swim instructor I…read morehave come across in my experience as a mom of 3 kids. Teresa's approach is loving and trusting but with the right amount of "tough love" that teaches the children how to survive in any water survival situation. My 2 year old most recently was tested in a real life situation when she lost her balance on a pool step and fell backwards in the pool; she instantly almost naturally knew to float on her back with her chin up until she knew she was near the pool wall to grab on. My child would never have learned this skill and most importantly done it under pressure without the teachings of "T.T.". The thing that impressed me the most when I first met Teresa was the fact that this special lady is truly in the business of teaching children to swim because she wants to save lives-and I know for a fact that she is every time she gets in the pool to teach a child! I will forever feel blessed that our paths crossed.
