They are extremely unorganized and absurdly disrespectful. The director or whoever the fuck she thinks she is talks to you like you below her, little does she know shes as important as an ant that I stepped on the other day. It's actually impossible to communicate with her because she treats you like you had no value. Do not attend this school, future CNA's do not deserve to be treated like this neither do they need to be around this type of toxic energy. PLEASE. DO NOT GO HERE. Besides the horrible staff, they are not on top of their shit and it is so unprofessional.

I cannot recommend SDMC enough…read more I wasn't originally supposed to go to this school for my CNA program. Although I was interested in going here, I picked another program over this one just because it didn't take as long to complete the CNA course and I was kind of in a rush. However, things went horribly wrong at the last minute with the other school (as in, they enrolled me for a weekend class - which would have had me finishing a MONTH after I wanted to, instead of the weekday class without telling me) so I had to enroll at this school at the last minute. Even though it was seemingly inconvenient at the time, I now couldn't be happier that things fell through with that other school because I truly believe this is the best school I - or anyone else for that matter - could go to. I was part of the first inaugurating class at the National City campus and I loved my experience there. We had the pleasure of having three different professors - Ms. Tuba, the owner and complete angel/sweetheart of a human being, Dr. Ray, an actual doctor!, and then Roy, our skills professor (also the resident sweetheart despite the tough exterior). They are all incredible! They DEFINITELY know what they're talking about and truly care about your success not only as a CNA, but as a person as well! They're quick to offer any form of support they can offer you (ex. setting up interviews with places for you, staying to practice skills with you even if they're not paid, explaining something in depth so you understand it, being a reference for you, giving you a list of 240+ practice questions for your written exam, skills videos to look at at home to practice, etc.). They are just AWESOME! I don't think I've ever felt more supported by a place in my entire life, to be honest. My classmates were the absolute sweetest and I felt so fortunate to meet them! There's also a Facebook Group you can join where old and new students help each other out with any questions, let each other know about any job openings, etc.! It's just a great big community that I am so happy and proud to be a part of. Everyone just wants everyone to do well and succeed and it's so awesome! The school itself is really nice too. It is beautifully decorated and you have everything you need and more! Parking might be a slight problem for larger classes (my class had 6 people in it, including me) since the area is shared with other businesses, but I wouldn't worry about it. It could potentially be tricky to snag a spot directly in front of the campus, but there's a large parking lot just around the corner (just drive past Tita's Kitchenette and Island Pacific Supermarket) that has several parking spots available. So worst case scenario, you just have to walk 2-3 minutes over, which isn't a problem in the slightest. I have zero doubts that I will pass my certification exam with ease. I can confidently say that I've received the best education and support here! Register to do your classes here! You will not regret it!

The other individual, a female of African-American ethnicity, who was at the front desk today around 11:30 am, had a customer service style that was less than satisfactory. I found her style to be curt, terse, brusque, and blunt. In a nutshell, not very personable or friendly. I would hope that some extra customer service training and coaching could be implemented, so that other clients can avoid a similar experience.

As a dad-to-be, I wasn't exactly sure what to expect going into a hypnobirthing class. If I'm being…read morehonest, I was a little skeptical at first--"hypno" anything sounded a bit out there to me. But I signed up to support my wife, and I'm really glad I did. This class completely changed how I see birth and my role in it. Instead of feeling like a bystander, I walked away feeling informed, useful, and actually confident in how I can support my wife during labor. The techniques we learned--breathing, relaxation, visualization--aren't just for moms. I found myself using them too, and they've already helped us both stay calmer leading up to the big day. What stood out most was how much emphasis was placed on teamwork. I learned specific, practical ways to advocate for my wife, help her stay relaxed, and create a positive environment no matter how the birth unfolds. It made me feel like an active participant instead of just "the guy in the room." The instructor, Care, was very knowledgeable, approachable, and never made any question feel silly. She made the classes very comfortable and even pretty funny at times. The class also struck a great balance between education and hands-on practice, so it didn't feel like we were just sitting through lectures. If you're a partner on the fence about taking a hypnobirthing class--do it. Even if you're skeptical like I was, you'll come away with tools, confidence, and a much deeper understanding of what your partner is going through. Honestly, it's one of the best things we've done together to prepare for becoming parents.

I gave birth a couple months ago, and decided to go through Care's Hypnobirthing class, and also…read moreuse her for my placenta encapsulation, and I can't recommend her highly enough! From the very first class, it was clear that Care is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about empowering expectant parents. Her approach to hypnobirthing and breathing techniques was not only informative but also calming and reassuring for both me and my partner. We completed it feeling much more prepared and confident for the birth experience ahead. Care provided a wealth of resources, ensuring we had everything we needed to make informed decisions about our birthing plan. She was always responsive to our questions, both during the classes and even after the birth, which made a world of difference in our journey. It's rare to find someone who continues to support you even after the classes are over. Overall, the entire experience with Care was amazing. Her warmth, expertise, and dedication to her clients truly set her apart. If you're looking for guidance and support in your birth preparation, look no further than Care Messer at the Birth Education Center!
