    I cannot say enough wonderful things about this school. The school is under amazing leadership and…read morecare with the current Director that has been there for our tenure. It is also worth mentioning that everyone that works there has a kind heart and truly cares about the growth and the development of the children under their care. The school is safe and clean. Once a year at open house all the kiddos' hard work is showcased, demonstrating the academic and artistic strength of the school and children. We just attended graduation where the children sang in three languages. As a parent, I could ask for nothing more; I could feel the community, celebration of the children's accomplishments, and support of the staff. I am truly grateful and honored to have sent my child here.

    This review is a long time coming and the praise I intend to share is well earned. Our daughter is…read morea typical COVID baby: over sheltered her and indulged. When looking for a day care we asked friends AND also looked for a place where we wouldn't feel judged (do all parent's feel they might be screwing up?) When we started her at Country Hill Montessori her language skills were mediocre, she wasn't very social, and both my wife and I were quite worried. Our worries were ultimately unfounded as from the first day the teachers and staff were extremely patient (both with us and our daughter). She was understandably upset but everyone went out of their way to reassure us AND console her. Over the next week or two she started feeling more and more comfortable and over a year later she actually enjoys going to "school". She has multiple teachers and teacher aides that she adores - and our experience is that ALL of the staff and teachers are wonderful and insanely patient. I'd mention them all but I figure they'll know who they are without mentioning them one by one. At present our daughters language skills have improved exponentially, she has "friends" that she asks about, and we couldn't be happier. While my wife looks forward to when our daughter will move on some day, I find myself wishing we'd never have to :)

The teachers really make an effort to engage the kids and develop in them in a very individualised way. The management is really committed to providing a safe, fun, and loving environment . Very clean with great staff and teachers , very welcoming. My children have been going here for 10 months she never cry once's!! . We always get updated video on how much fun my daughter gets everyday !! She is learning English, Chine and Spanish , gym and kung fu!! And learning how to tell other kids sometimes she need her own space is so important!! I m glad it is not a day care it is a school that kids Constantly learning!!

The teachers are caring, compassionate and dedicated. The trilingual program is amazing as well as the gym and the martial arts!!!!!i enjoyed the weekly emails and photos and videos as well. Covid changed a lot the past year, but they were accommodating in staying open for essential workers. They practiced covid measures as well. I definitely missed out on getting to volunteer, do any field trips, holidays, themed days which isn't their fault, but i was excited to do so as a first time mom. we're sad to leave, but we are confident enough for her to start the next grade.

    We had our 2 year old son here for less than a month, unfortunately our experience was unpleasant…read moreto say the least. They ask you to pack food for meals and will not heat up your child's food so be prepared to pack cold foods only. The staff just seemed annoyed more than anything at my son as he had a hard time adjusting to his new schedule. Just about everyday he cried upon drop off and pick up. Understandably there were growing pains, but even now at his current child care facility he adjusted within 2 weeks. The staff was avoidant when we tried asking questions and when we were able to talk to them (the little conversation we were able to have) they tried to keep it as short as possible with no elaboration. The worst came less than two weeks in. There was an incident that happened which ultimately resulted with my son needing stitches in his face from one of the teachers trying to pick him up from his cot before nap time to change his diaper. The story still is not clear and conveniently there was no video of what happened and no proper incident report was provided even after requested. Hopefully others have a better experience here and everyone can be kept safe in the future.

    Choosing this childcare provider has truly been like gaining a second family…read more From the moment we moved our children here, we were welcomed with open arms. Every question was answered, and the staff took the time to give us one-on-one attention so that we could ensure this was the right fit for our children's needs. That level of care and intentionality made all the difference for our family. They teach and live by seven core values: compassion, gratitude, honesty, love, perseverance, respect, and responsibility. Our children are encouraged to demonstrate these values daily and receive positive praise in real time as well as our children receiving written recognition that is sent home so we can continue reinforcing those lessons as parents. It truly feels like a partnership. In addition, they work with my kids on educational fundamentals such as the alphabet, numbers, colors, and shapes. My children both have asthma, and the staff has been extremely attentive and responsive to their needs. It brings such a peace of mind knowing they are in caring and capable hands. Any time there has been a minor injury--like a bump or fall--we immediately receive a call, an email, and a face-to-face conversation with staff so we are fully informed. Their communication is outstanding. Now that my daughter is school-aged, they continue to support her with care - during breaks- and we feel incredibly blessed to still be part of this community. Since we don't have much family or close friends nearby, this childcare center has given us a sense of comfort and security that allows us to continue working without worry.

Naomi is truly an artisan when it comes to creating beautiful, imaginative spaces for young children. I was completely blown away by the setup, the activities, and the thoughtfulness that went into every detail--and all at such a reasonable price! I had asked for a Frozen theme without the overly commercial feel, and wow, did she deliver. The space was enchanting and perfectly tied into our theme in the most tasteful way. The mud kitchen, sensory station, painting area, customized scented play dough, potion making station, fairy garden, child-sized table with custom mushroom stools, teepee house... there was something special for every single child. Even my ten-year-old had a blast exploring the sensory play stations! What I loved most was how intimate and personal everything felt. Our guests couldn't stop talking about what a wonderful venue it was. Absolutely perfect for a three year old's birthday party. This day is something I will cherish in my heart forever. Thank you for making my girl's birthday so incredibly special and helping us create memories we'll never forget.

    My daughter has been going to Angels for two years now; today was her last day before going to…read moreKindergarten and I actually almost cried going to pick her up there for the last time! I really loved this daycare/preschool and had a good rapport with quite a few of the teachers (some I saw rarely or never since they worked mornings). Many of the kids that were in her class had been there just as many years as her, if not longer (i.e. this is a place parents obviously feel comfortable with because their kid(s) stay there long-term). My daughter definitely had her favorite teachers, and I'm not gonna lie, the first time she told me she loved her teacher Ms. Louise, I felt a stab of guilt over someone else 'raising' my child (I know a lot of stay at home moms that guilt people about daycares) but then I thought, 'How great is it that I have a place I feel secure about having my little girl at every day?!' The director Elizabeth is very understanding and the teachers as a whole are great about keeping you posted on any incidents that may have occurred - like the time my daughter was stung by a bee or the many times she tripped and fell and they bandaged her up and comforted her. I definitely, wholeheartedly recommend this place! So glad that I brought her here on not one but two recommendations from my own family.

    I cannot speak high enough of this school and the quality of care and cleanliness!! Mrs. Elizabeth…read moretaught my son this year and every day learning was so fun and the teacher and staff treated my son as good as family. I have been to a ton of preschools with my son and I raised other children in the town of Rocklin. I just enrolled my 1 year old and Noelle is the kindest and most capable staff to run the younger ones there, my daughter immediately adjusted and Noelle let me call in and check on her and she made sure my little girl comfortable and easily calmed her to go to sleep. A+++ facility and staff. It's worth the drive to me for my children's comfortableness. The other staff are happy, personable and hard working. I got to know Gayle and Hannah too, amazing people.

    I felt inclined to leave a review, because my son has had an amazing experience here. I was shocked…read moreto see anything negative honestly. My son has learned better manners, compassion, better vocab, and all around better education. I can tell the school cares about my son, and gives him love when he's struggling. That's all I can ask for as a mom. I can tell the teachers and director care about planning fun activities. They make sure each child is on the right path to reach milestones such as potty training, completing sentences, fine motor skills etc. I love how the school updates me on incidents and day to day activities. No complaints here, just thought this could help a parent who is deciding where to send their child to. I'm not religious at all, and very much enjoy the school, teachers, and parents.

She always knows what to say and do to snap him out of it. They do all kinds of activities like dr. Seuss story time, crafts, water fun during the summer. Each parent is required to bring snacks once a month which my son loves because he gets to be the line leader that day! My son can now write his name pretty clear and i feel confident he will be successful in kindergarten. Really can't find a bad thing to say! Oh and they now use the brightwheel mobile app, which is super cool! You can pay your invoices from the app, they post pictures and videos, all kinds of stuff!

Don't let the negative reviews sway you,…read moreMs. Kathy and her group of teachers are fantastic, they truly care about each and every student, and it shows. The weekly activities and extracurriculars are fun, thoughtful, and enriching. They truly went above and beyond our expectations, and we are so happy we took the chance on Rusch Park Preschool! Thank you to Ms Kathy, Ms. Frankie, Ms. Nicole, and Ms. Natallia for a wonderful Pre-K experience. We wish we didn't have to leave!!

    Let me start off by saying my kids did learn and excel in this program. But the director Kathy has…read moreno regard for the parents and no respect multiple times, She made unfair comments, in front of other parents. She likes to call people out when it is uncalled for. For example, being upset that one parent brought " too much birthday treats" which there is no policy on how much to bring or not to bring. During this speech she call me out saying I should not do this. Let me tell you why this was strange for her to say. My twins have summer birthdays so I had not brought in and treats. When she said this, every single parent stared at me which made things very uncomfortable. She also discussed another child to me (that was not one of my children) that was four years old and said "he would cry if his shoe was not tied" My other issues I have is Kathy calling children too emotional or over emotional mind you all these children are 3 to 4 years old. 3 to 4-year-olds have big giant emotions. Many of these children have never been away from their parents so the response to that is a normal developmental response for that age. I think that's a unfair assessment especially regarding crying at that age as so many children do now let me add. She had never said this about my children but as a parent, I don't like hearing about anyone's children at that age. It took me along time to make this review I wanted to give the benefit of the doubt. But now that my children are in a school setting, where the teachers have respect do not say negative comments like that I realized how wrong that was and how many times I let things slide when I was just trying to keep the peace in thinking maybe it was me. All the other teachers here are great . Kathy herself I believe is a good teacher, but I had some very negative times interacting with her. I wish there was a review like this before I signed up for this program so I would have been aware. I did bring this up to hire management and directors more than once through the school year last year. The reason I didn't pull my children out were they were doing very well in school they made friends and the other four teachers were all fantastic.
