Huge shout out to Ms.Neeraja for always putting the kids first and looking out for their overall well being. From all the events they do for kids, to working with parents based on each child's needs and ensuring social emotional learning, the teachers here put in so much effort in taking care of their students that I highly recommend this center for any parents looking for early child care. Special mention to Ms.Sheila who teaches kids with immense patience and always has their back. Ms.Jinu, Ms.Sara, Ms.Kanika, Ms.Chamu and Ms.Richa have all been very attentive and very hands on in our child's learning journey. We are so glad we found this place and very happy with how our child has grown here. Thank you to all the teachers here for creating a safe and caring space for little ones.

A special mention to Ms. Neeraja for maintaining the school so well and for always being approachable and supportive.

Another thing we truly appreciate is the flexibility and understanding with parents' timings and schedules. It really helps working families.

Every day, our daughter is involved in activities that help her grow and learn. From creative art, food prep, science experiments and paper crafts to making custom keychains, the projects are fun and developmentally helpful. There are also so many programs and projects listed in the newsletter we receive regularly. They do a wonderful job helping her build strong fine motor skills, and Fridays are especially fun because of dance day, which she looks forward to each week. What really stands out is the staff. Ms. Hamina and Ms. Kendall are genuinely kind, sincere, and caring. The teachers are always going above and beyond for the kids, and we always feel comfortable knowing our daughter is in good hands. Ms. Hamina keeps me updated throughout the day, which I really appreciate. I was nervous about putting my daughter into daycare at first, but she has had such a positive experience. She adjusted quickly and actually loves daycare! All the other kids are so good to her and each other. We are very grateful for the care and enrichment they provide and would highly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a nurturing and engaging environment for their child.

In just a short time, our daughter has gotten to experience so many fun activities--visits from police officers, a fire truck, the East Bay SPCA, cooking classes, and a new learning theme each month. Last month, they even put on an art show featuring all of the kids' artwork, which was such a thoughtful touch and a proud moment for us. We also really appreciate the cozy, home-like environment--it feels safe, welcoming, and perfect for young kids. Most importantly, our daughter absolutely loves going every day, which says it all. We're so thankful to have found Little Feet Preschool and highly recommend it to other families!

My son used to go to another preschool in the area. He started in Nov 2023 and would still cry…read moreduring drop offs till I changed it in July 2024. He also showed other give-away traits like giving up quickly on facing challenges, constantly looking for my approval in whatever he did as if he was doing what he was only to please me or other authorities. if another kid accidentally spilled something or did something similar, he quickly categorised it and announced that he/she did a bad job, as if to pass on the blame before he was blamed for it. Tell-tail signs of fixed mindset. Once he did not want to do his letters so the teacher threatened him that mom won't come to pick him after lunch. He was devastated to say the least. All this was all way too alarming to me. So I decided to change his preschool/daycare. Luckily for me I came across Shooting Starts through neighbours and it has been life changing to say the least. They let the kids be kids and give them space to be loved and also get their energy out. Now my son has stopped calling out other people for their mistakes. He takes pride in saying "it's okay". He doesn't give up on figuring out how to do something. If he can't then he asks for directions and tries again. And then he takes pride in saying "Mumma I tried and I tried, and now I can do it!". During drop offs, the same boy who used to cling to me like a monkey till July 2024 and cry and beg to not to be left at preschool, he runs off and sits with his fiends and teachers. And he started doing that within a week of changing schools!! Threatening 3year olds to learn their letters will only make them averse to studying. Teachers at Shooting starts take a better route and make all of this fun for the little guys. I would give them ten stars if I could. They have been life changing and promoted a healthy growth mindset in my little boy.

He's so much happier, more engaged, and genuinely excited to go to school every day. The morning drop-off teachers are fantastic - always warm, welcoming, and attentive. It sets such a positive tone for the day. The toddler teachers in the 18-36 months room are equally amazing. He's learning so much - new words, songs, social skills and we've seen real growth in his confidence and communication. We also really appreciate the cleanliness and organization of the classroom. Everything feels well-maintained with lots of age appropriate toys for kids to play with. A huge plus at this daycare location is the schedule flexibility. With an early drop-off at 7:00 AM and closing at 6:00 PM, the hours are incredibly accommodating for working parents in the area. Highly recommend!

Love the way teachers like Ms Maria, Ms Shubhra, Ms Mai, Ms Vasantha, Ms Amy took care of all the kids and also at the same time taught them boundaries and behaviours and art classes, dance theaters.

After only touring the facility, I will let you know what I witnessed…read more 1. The facility is dirty. From the floors, walls and the bathrooms the children use. I cannot imagine what the kitchen looks like where they prep the snacks. The paint was noticeably chipping off the walls and floor molding. It is not kept up like many other facilities in the area. 2. The outdoor play yard has minimal shade. They do have sun sails up but they do not provide proper shade for the children. 3. I didn't see any children smiling or having fun when we looked into the 2s, 3s and 4s rooms. It was a quiet room, but not in a good way. 4. There were many other safety concerns but the main issue I saw that needs to be addressed was that there were clear wall tacks used on the hallways to hold up art and other things. Toddlers walk the halls and it's a huge safety hazard to them. Tacks always fall off walls and it just takes one toddler to toss it into their mouth in a split second. Using tacks and tapes on the walls is definitely not to code and a violation of safety standards. 5. They are planning on adding infants to the room that has children up to age 2. I haven't seen this done anywhere else. It's a health and safety hazard to have infants with 2 year olds. Do not send your infants here. 6. This was the least racial diverse facility I have toured. It might not be a deal breaker for some, but it is definitely something to consider as it is something to give most parents pause. 7. While the lady who gave the tour was nice enough. She mainly walked me to the rooms and set me down in her office and asked if I had questions. She didn't tell me about their curriculum, enrichment opportunities, ratios, or what makes them stand out against the many other preschools in the area. Perhaps it's because they do not. I am surprised parents send their children to such an expensive facility that is lacking. Parents should do surprise visits to check on the wellness of their kids here. Visiting this place made me so sad for the children who are stuck in these rooms all day-- especially the room with the 2 year olds.

My son went to this daycare for about a year in 2023. Our experience was a mixed bag…read more The good - It's my son's first daycare and he had a relatively smooth start here. Michelle and her crew are experienced, and they did create a cheerful environment for the kids. The bad - Sloppy day-to-day operations, or so we suspect at least. We could only speculate because the daycare was never open-door to parent visits (aside from the after-hour tour before we enrolled), but there were clear signs: (1) after the final checkout we found our son's steel mug missing, and it sounded like the crew didn't even remember seeing it - makes us wonder how they manage each kid's personal items. (2) Apparently, kids get to watch TV the last hour-ish before pickup every day. When we asked about this, Ms Michelle was 100% unapologetic. ("If you have concerns with that, I can totally arrange for your kid to stay in another room before pickup.") The ugly - The tuition uses a monthly rate without any adjustments for days off, and in December 2023, they're open for a whopping total of FOUR days - which isn't great, but nothing unethical I think, as they did share the calendar beforehand. We happen to be traveling the entire December, so we gave the 30-day notice for an end-of-November checkout. To our surprise, this was considered by Michelle an unfair (?) attempt to circumvent the December rip-off, and she insisted that we receive 5 fewer days of care in November. She would also go out of her way and type a "holiday notice" customized just for us. For context, the schedule has a 5-day off for Thanksgiving that's moved to December instead, and the daycare's open for the week of Thanksgiving. We were given a customized fake schedule that says they're closed during that week. We happened to be traveling, too, so it wasn't a huge issue, but the shady practice and bad attitude by Michelle did leave a bad taste. No, Ms Michelle, you can't claim people are "taking unfair advantages" when all they do is try to stick to YOUR established schedule. The care provided during Thanksgiving week was part of your schedule, simply as that and not a "benefit" that you selectively bestow only to those paying $2,000 for 4 days of care in the next month.
