Miss Cindy, who teaches the younger children, is a positive, happy, caring teacher. Miss Jeanie, who teaches the Junior Kindergartners, will melt your heart. Both teachers have been with Rainbowland for more than 10 years! Miss Sandy, the director, runs the place with love. The school is accredited which is very hard to find in this area. The Rainbowland community includes caring, involved parents which in turn includes happy, well-adjusted kids.

I'm gonna start with this preschool is wonderful. My neighbor referred us…read more My baby had a hard time starting preschool (4 yrs old). They helped us with the process so much and made it easy. I never thought I would be that parent but my husband and I were super emotional the first day. Trinity helped us through the process and even kept me posted by text with how our child was doing along with pictures. I sincerely appreciated it. We had tried another preschool for only two days, 6 months prior and it wasn't a good fit. They didn't talk with me in person, or allow me inside the building on my child's first day. My son came home saying he doesn't like it and I could tell he wasn't feeling the teachers vibe. At Sunrise Community Church preschool he says he "likes his teacher Trinity" and "his teacher will help him if he needs it". He has mentioned he likes his teacher Emily too! We are very happy with our experience, regular interaction and wish we had gone here much sooner.

Our daughter started at Joy of Children when she was 3, shortly after we moved to the area, and…read morefrom day one we could tell she was happy, safe, loved, and in such a nurturing and educational environment. When it came time for TK, we made the decision to keep her at JOC rather than send her to our local public school, and we are so grateful we did. The care, attention, and heart that Ms. Alecia, Ms. Elaine, and the entire team pour into these children is truly hard to find. Over the years we've watched our daughter grow tremendously--socially, emotionally, and academically--and we know she is more than ready for kindergarten. Beyond the learning itself, there is something really special about this community. It's so evident how deeply the teachers care for the children and families and how much of themselves they pour into making JOC such a loving place. We truly can't say enough wonderful things and are so grateful for our time here.

Our son has been in several daycare and preschool settings in his short life, and this school has…read morebeen the most outstanding experience by far and a saving grace for our poor boy who hated school after several rough experiences. JOC is loving, nurturing, and educational in a way that goes above and beyond what we expected from a preschool. What brought us here primarily was meeting older children who had attended and exhibited amazing social skills and who played so kindly with our younger son. Also, their schedule. Our son stopped napping at 2.5 and was having to nap or have quiet time for 2+ hours at such an early time at every other school. This school does their full programming until 2 pm every day then just does an hour of rest from 2:30-3:30. (We don't do the extended day option and pick him up at 2:15, so he's there from about 9-2:15). That's so much more appropriate for his development and age, and is so much better for us as parents than most preschools offer. It's the perfect balance for us. They've also been so accommodating and wonderful in helping us choose the right schedule and days of week for him to attend. In the year he's been here, he has absolutely blossomed and come to love school. He is learning concepts and skills that I'm realizing many children don't encounter until kindergarten, and we're so proud of the knowledge, work, and projects he brings home each day. I only wish we had started him here sooner, and I am genuinely sad as we approach graduation. The school is run by twin sisters who are true gems -- kind, dedicated, and deeply invested in every child. Alecia and Elaine create a warm, family-like atmosphere where each child is seen, valued, and loved. They tell the children daily how special they are and how much they are loved, and I've seen his confidence and heart grow as a result. The entire teaching team has been wonderful and steady, which speaks volumes about the culture they've built. I especially appreciate the mixed 3-5 year old classroom model. The older children learn leadership and compassion, while the younger ones are inspired and supported. It has been such a gift for our son's social and emotional development. The style and format of the program truly fit him and have helped him thrive. They also have a well organized program and schedule with lots of time outdoors. Lunch & snacks are also provided, which is so helpful for us. He rarely ate his lunch when I packed it for him before, but eating the same thing as everyone else together ensures he is nourished every day. Communication with parents is excellent. We feel included, informed, and welcomed to provide feedback or ask questions. There are really beautiful, big events and meaningful opportunities for parent engagement, which has helped us feel connected to his school life. They just did a sweetheart coffee with daddy's and it was so precious - they learned sweet songs and had a beautiful moment in appreciation of dads and dad stand-ins. Their Christmas show was also spectacular. We still sing many of the songs they learned. They also do a field trip walk to the park day and several events that allow for parent participation in fun and balanced ways. After touring and trying many preschools across Folsom, El Dorado Hills, Cameron Park, and surrounding areas, we can honestly say this one stands out in every possible way. We commute 20 minutes each way, and it is absolutely worth it. I truly cannot recommend this school highly enough. It has been a beautiful, foundational chapter in our son's life, and we are so grateful for the love, education, and joy they have given him. Thank you, thank you our hearts sing! We're truly grateful for everything

He was picked up from his PM kindergarten class at 2:45, arriving at the facility by 3:20pm. Due to the caregiver in charge not doing certain protocols my son was completely forgotten, strapped to a seat on the bus. Additionally no other staff member raised any alarms so they also did not follow protocols. At 4:50 my husband arrived at the facility and was told " we don't know, we haven't seen him since that morning". Once my husband threatened to call the police did they start looking for my baby. My son was located 12 minutes later. He was crying flushed drenched in sweat, hungry and thirty. As a mom who could have lost her baby for the negligence of this daycare, I am furious. My baby is now seeing a counselor for nightmares.
