Since joining the…read moreSaplings class, we've seen such beautiful growth in him--thanks to the nurturing environment and meaningful interactions with both his incredible teachers and classmates. The joy on his face when we say "time to go to school" is priceless. The moment we walk through the doors, he lights up, and it's clear he feels safe, loved, and excited to learn. That kind of happiness doesn't happen by accident--it's a reflection of the incredible care and dedication from the amazing team at this location.

The teachers have been there forever (low to no turnover) and absolutely love on your kids and - even better- want what's best for them. They view your family as humans (not a paycheck or number) & will truly go above and beyond to meet any and all needs to support all of your family. Between my 5 children this is the 5th preschool we've attended and my last 2 absolutely will never attend any other preschool. They value academic education thru art, music, sensory and small group activities; and place emphasis on emotional growth through research based social/emotional programs. They engage community/family involvement by having parents night out, family movie nights, and holiday themed events. Thank you PVCS for treating us like family- we love you!

Amore preschool is the best daycare! After spending the first year at home with my baby, to say I…read morewas nervous to enroll her to return to work is an understatement. I toured the school and met Ms. El after seeing the reviews here. My 20 month old has been here for some time now and I cannot express my gratitude for the women that work here enough. My daughter went from crying when I dropped her off (due to the change) to now wanting to stay past pickup time sometimes. All of the employees are super sweet and treat the kids like their own. My daughter loves Ms. El, Ms. Jaylen & Ms. Emily. One day Ms. Emily was walking up to the preschool and my daughter did a happy dance. Even the staff that are not her direct teachers know her by name and care. You truly get to see how great the staff is through your child's comfort. They also communicate quickly and in detail through the app and upload pictures daily. Their routine gives the kids the consistency they need. They have an outside play area as well. I cannot recommend this daycare enough to any parents that need a safe, nurturing and learning environment for their babies or children.

Both of my daughters have gone here for a few years now, and it's been such a wonderful experience…read more The director is amazing -- so hands-on and clearly dedicated. You just know she puts in a ton of work behind the scenes to keep things running smoothly. The teachers are the best. They truly love what they do, and it feels like more than a job to them. My girls adore their teachers, and they're kind of like their little second family. They talk about their teachers outside of school a bunch so it really has a positive impact. The classrooms are always clean, which stood out to me when I toured several schools at the beginning. There's always a great mix of activities, and the kids spend plenty of time outside getting fresh air. Between my two daughters, we've had a child in every age group at some point, from infant to pre-K, and the care has been consistently great. When one of my girls had a phase of some behavioral challenges, the staff worked with us as a team to figure it out instead of pushing us away. Within a few days, things got better and she moved on from that phase. That's the kind of personal touch you get with a smaller school. They send pictures and updates, and it's just such a comforting feeling to know your kids are safe, happy, and having fun every day. We love Amore!

We are so thankful for all the wonderful teachers and staff who have been part of our girls' lives over the years. Highly recommend Children's Learning Adventure!!!

We had two amazingly beautiful years here with Ms. Bobbie and Ms Karla in the Primary Room. Family owned and operated has never been more defined than at Rainbow. You will become family. They are truly interested in not only the growth and development of your child but how the family unit as a whole is functioning. Your child will be loved and well taken care of as their social, academic, and physical skills explode. How incredibly blessed we are to have had the opportunity to spend two years with Rainbow. We don't want to leave but are only doing so for a higher grade level.

The classrooms are beautifully organized and nurturing, and the community feels like an extension of our family. We feel a sense of partnership with our guides and value their developmentally appropriate input (assistance with potty training especially!!)

But seriously: I did a tours for my 3 year old daughter at many different preschools and this one stood out as the best one by a long shot! As soon as you walk inside, everyone greets you in a calm, caring, and JOYFUL manner.

I completely trust that this preschool will be the perfect fit for my daughter and my daughter seems to agree- she cried when she had to leave!

The campus itself is super cute and set up very classroom style, which I think is a positive experience for young kids all of the kids and teachers were fully engaged and so happy. They also have a community area for kids to eat lunch to get them used to cafeteria style, which I thought was super cool and their meals are on the healthier side compared to most childcare centers. They additionally have some extracurriculars that you can pay extra for like dance or art for about $10 additional a week. They are on the slightly more expensive side, but honestly very reasonable in comparison to other childcare centers in the valley. If it was a little bit closer to our house or in a more convenient location, we would be sending our children here.

I had my son here for two years and unfortunately it did not work out…read more I do love how friendly the girls are up front (there are some great women there) and it makes for a good atmosphere for the parents but the daycare seemed to have a high turnover rate with teachers and just an underlying toxic tone. I saw one teacher not being very patient or friendly with a child and later she was moved out to help with other activities (thank god). Another younger teacher would stomp past us and not even smile as if she hated us and her job. I understand my son made friends with a boy who seemed to be a troublemaker so he was difficult but the way the school handled it was by putting him up front in time out nearly everyday, and the teacher accosting me and telling me that he needs assessments as if he's special needs and then moving him down to half days only. I left in tears one day because of the way the teacher treated me. We transferred to the Scottsdale School and my son is thriving ! He has been learning SO much, the teachers have been there for years so they don't have a high turnover rate and my son loves going. I feel great dropping him off and they all love my son and he's super popular in school. We have had ZERO issues there. I do realize other people have good experiences here but I just always felt super off and stressed dropping my son off at this daycare. This daycare seemed to have a negative attitude towards my son (which may have been justified because of negative influences) which made for a somewhat threatening environment for him. Just know if a daycare is not working out then you can always find a better environment for your child. Young children are very influenced by other kids in the class so getting them into a different school may be appropriate.
