My family had the best experience at LAPMS for my son. We moved back in the area and wanted to…read morecontinue his Montessori school learning so we enrolled him for the school year before he goes to TK. This was a fairly new school and it was the most affordable Montessori school in the area. The tour went well and Ms Lana helped us feel at ease that he would be getting great care and education with them. The classrooms were clean and the learning materials seemed very contemporary. Our son adjusted well after a couple weeks and we started to see a great improvement socially and academically and his feelings about school completely changed as well. He was half day initially, but we decided to extend after he was potty trained. He grew to love going to school and eventually during pick up, he'd hide behind his fingers which he explained "I was hiding because I want to stay at school". He loved his teachers and I can tell he got the individualized care he needed. I know my son's time here has made a lasting impression on his educational journey and we would recommend this school to any parent looking for a quality, affordable Montessori school in the area :)

School play area is very big, clean and kids friendly. This is my son's first preschool experience and he is loving his school and teachers so much and wants to go to school everyday. We were concerned about our son's first experience at the school but everything was good. He has made a good progress not only academically but also emotionally and socially with the support of teachers and caring school staff. His teachers Ms. Erica & Ms. Alice both are very caring and loving teachers. Both teachers are extremely knowledgeable in child psychology and early childhood development. Each teacher has their own unique qualities.I always saw them following hygiene level among kids and keeping everything super clean. School staff is also very kind, supportive and welcoming. A big thanks to Ms. Lana who kept updating by calling each day regarding our son. Teachers and staff both are very caring and always keep you posted for the betterment of your child. School just celebrated Easter and kids had lots of fun during egg hunting. My son was super happy and excited. Thank you so much for making such lovely memories for my son. I am really thankful and grateful for both teachers Ms. Erica and Ms. Alice and the school staff for their kindness, support and love to my son. Highly recommended this school for your child!

We love this preschool! Our daughter started here in 2022, in the 2's class. We were very…read moreapprehensive as this was a kid who was super shy and been socially distanced in the pandemic. The first few months were tough but the teachers were super supportive and they had an extra assistant teacher who just hung out with her till she got comfortable to join the class. Fast forward to 2025, after completing her TK class here, our daughter is all equipped to join Kinder in a "big school". This year has especially impressive with themes every week, art and songs to go with the theme, lots of reading and writing without worksheets!! Kids learn via play, and love it. They do so much art daily, that you'd have to buy boxes if you decided to preserve them all. :) We also loved the playgrounds in each year, perfect for the age group and separated from other ages to keep them safe. Another plus is the events, they celebrate many festivals, performances for Mother's Day/Father's Day and Christmas! Last but not the least, the staff is amazing! All three classrooms that our daughter went to (sunflower, dragonfly and TK) have had loving and attentive teachers. Couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Every teacher and staff we have worked with is so kind and loving. The classes are small, the activities and also snacks are high quality. Every kid there is happy, confident and curious.

We were fortunate to have discovered Village Little for our daughter. My daughter attended Village…read moreLittle Preschool until TK, and she really liked going to school every day. The teachers and staff there are very supportive of the child's growth and needs. The school also offers a nice playground in the back and a large open grass area in front of the school for kids to play and explore nature during playtime. In addition to regular class activities, Village Little also offers educational sports programs where kids can enroll weekly. These programs introduce kids to a variety of sports, build confidence, and help them develop a love of fitness from a young age. My daughter comes home and shows us what she learned that week, and it puts a smile on our faces that she had fun and learned something new each week. Village Little also goes above and beyond during special holidays and summer to provide meaningful events for the kids. For example, while my daughter was there, they hosted a petting zoo day where locals brought in small animals (rabbits, sheep, turtles, etc.), bouncing house day where kids can jump in spacious and good quality bounce houses with slides, a magic day where kids saw a magician demonstrate various magic tricks, etc. My daughter loved all these special events and had a great time. My daughter had a great time at VL, and we were very pleased with the school overall.

Both of our kids had great experiences at village little preschool. Miss Janice who left a few…read moreyears is such a great teacher and she was so kind and sweet also super patient. We are also so lucky to have Miss Lulu as star teacher who showed love and kindness to our kid. She also knows how to handle kids and make kids follow her instruction without hard feelings. My kid developed and grew a lot over a year and we are so appreciated Miss Joanna is another great teacher who taught my other kid a few years ago and she was very supportive. Whenever my kid was a bit upset she would bring her out and shoot very nice photos for her and found way to Make her happy. That is sweet and made her feel great

My first impression was that this is a good place as it sits in a quiet neighborhood, the ratio is…read moregood, teachers look nice. But something happened in the tour changed my mind. During the tour of the 3-year-old class, I saw a teacher holding a cup of steaming hot tea without a lid, walking through a group of children and even hugging two of them. After entering the classroom, the teacher put the tea on a cabinet, which was fine. But a little later, she moved the hot tea to the table where the children were having snacks. I questioned the tour guide on the spot, and was told that the school provides complimentary drinks for teachers every day, and that this poses no safety risk since they've never had an incident where hot water was spilled on a child. This response shows that the school prioritizes not offending teachers over children's safety.

Just finished our first year at Children's Corner. We loved it for many reasons. As a parent with a…read morepandemic toddler, I was very nervous sending my son to school. But the school was great about enforcing their policy and teachers maintained a very clean environment. The teachers were loving, as were the substitutes. My son is trilingual and there were teachers that could communicate in all 3 languages. That was great. I love how each grade has its own play area. Mix up Fridays are fun so kids could explore other play areas. We looked forward to the activity of day table every morning. Each day was an amazing creation. For my 2 year old, I couldn't have chosen a better school. I toured all in the area and after careful evaluation we landed at this school for many reasons and very happy with that choice. We opted for 5, half days and it was perfect for my family and work/life balance.

We are so grateful to Early Horizons Preschool and especially to Nito, Stefanie, and Kylee for…read morebeing such incredible directors. Finding a daycare that could safely accommodate our son's medical complexity including G-tube feeding was extremely challenging, especially for an infant. From the very beginning, the team at Early Horizons went above and beyond to provide not only excellent care, but also genuine love, support, and nurturing for both of our children. Special shoutout to Teacher Crystal and Teacher Kristen in the infant room, and Teacher Jennie and Andreina in the toddler room. These individuals are absolutely amazing, and we fully trust them with our children. They are so nurturing and loving, and you can truly tell they enjoy what they do and have a genuine love for kids. Our son attended from 10 months old until he was 2 1/2, and our daughter started at just 5 months and stayed until she was 2. Both of them thrived in this environment, and as parents, we always felt reassured knowing they were in such capable and compassionate hands. As they reached each milestone, the amazing teachers celebrated with them. This was so heartwarming as it revealed how much our children meant to them. One thing we especially appreciated was the consistent updates throughout the day--feedings, snack times, and photos. It gave us so much peace of mind and helped us feel connected, even when we were apart. We never felt like we were missing out on their growth and development. If it weren't for changes in our family situation and commute, we would absolutely still be there. Early Horizons will forever hold a special place in our hearts and sets the highest standard for all daycare centers and schools. We highly recommend Early Horizons Preschool to any family looking for a safe, supportive, and loving environment for their children. One final note-- our son's Occupational Therapist, who's been working with children for nearly two decades, paid a visit to Early Horizons to assess the environment to provide strategies to maximize our son's abilities. Verbatim, she said, "I've never seen a daycare that is more caring and accommodating than this one". Cheers to the best daycare ever! Thanks for the core memories!

We also want to specially recognize Ms. Kuldeep and Ms. Thu for the extra love and care they showered on our child. Knowing that your little one is in such caring hands gives parents immense peace of mind. The entire team at Tulip Kids Academy creates a safe, joyful, and stimulating environment where toddlers can truly thrive.

The teachers strike the perfect balance between structure--teaching them to feed themselves and follow routines--and genuine, heartfelt affection. the Our twins moved to the next class when they turned two. Even now, their love for their first teachers hasn't faded. They still make a point to go back and visit the infant classroom every chance they get, which is a true testament to the bond they formed. Miss Ami and Miss Jayshri, in particular, have become total household names for us. They cared for our children, and we are so grateful to have had them in our corner during these formative years. If you are looking for a team that will nurture your children's independence while showering them with love, this is exactly where you want to be.

I've hesitated to write any reviews on CCNS because I love it so, so much, I would feel terrible to…read morejust give it a quick five stars and walk away. That wouldn't be fair. My review won't nearly do the school justice, but here's what I've got. I went to a co-op preschool growing up (Redwood Parents Nursery School in Redwood City) and I remember it being pure magic. The environment, the teachers, the families we're still in touch with (I'm 35 now, so that's saying something), all the time outdoors. In my search for a preschool in this area, I had begun to accept that that kind of thing just didn't exist anymore, or that if it did it was out of reach financially for our family. I know one mid-range preschool I toured (not parent participation) was something like $650/month, and that was just for 3-4 mornings per week, nothing crazy. I couldn't do it. So we went to a city-run preschool for a while that we weren't thrilled with, and then went to the open house for this one in January of last year. It. Was. Everything. I was blown away by the beautiful outdoor space - big tricycle track, chickens, bunnies, big sand area, garden for the kids to engage with, tons of movement equipment, nice lawn and little hills. And now they even have a mud kitchen! The kids are ENCOURAGED to get messy. They can run around barefoot, jump in puddles, if they're working on their potty training and have an accident - no biggie. They really and truly foster a positive learning environment. There are centers set up all over the place (thanks to the parent involvement) with science projects, cooking projects, special art activities, free range art activities, music, and exploration of every kind. And if the kids just want to hang out and ride bikes because that's developmentally what they're drawn to? That's cool, too. They consider observation a form of participation, rightly. On top of all of this, the teachers. Oh, the teachers. They're just amazing. We started in February of last year, mid-year, and we were immediately included, welcomed, loved, and part of the village. We were at home, right away. They treat the students with unending respect and love, get right in the magic and fun with them, and are equally ready to sit down in the dirt and listen, build problem solving and conflict resolution skills, and just be 100% present. They WELCOME conflict and difficulties, because it's an opportunity for learning and growth. As they say, if the kids already had all of those skills, they wouldn't need preschool. All of this, and affordable! $270/month for the 3's morning class this year, I believe; and just slightly more for the 4's afternoon class. The catch, and I see how this makes it challenging in some one parent homes or two working parent homes, is that there's a lot of parent participation involved (working one day per week, evening meetings once/twice month, a committee position, two janitorial weekends per year, etc.), and that part ALMOST kept us from doing it, but I'm so unbelievably grateful that we chose to make the leap. Every bit of time and effort we've put in has come back to us ten-fold in the sense of community we feel, and the amazing experience our whole family has had so far. If you're considering this school, you can call any time and schedule a tour. I can't possibly give it enough stars.

The school is a wonderful location with a huge backyard play area that has bikes and chickens and bunnies and tire swings and lots more. Inside there is a play house, art studio, and a game room. Our daughter comes home with a new and different piece of art that she's made almost every day. It's a parent run co-op, which means all of the parents are very involved (they run the school!) and it's really great getting to know a community of other parents with children the same age. The parents work during the school days along with the teachers, which means there are lots of adults supervising the children, and it also means the adults get to relive a bit of their own preschool experience. I had forgotten how much fun a marble maze is, or all the different things that you can do with hula hoops!

As a parent, you really just want your child to be happy, supported and excited to go to school…read more We've had such a positive experience at Stratford Washington Park campus and really enjoyed our Kindergarten year. One thing we've really appreciated is the balance between strong academics and social-emotional learning. Our child had a bit of an adjustment period coming from a different school environment at the start of summer camp, and Program Director Ms. Karwa was amazing in helping with that transition. She's thoughtful and supportive with younger children during big emotion moments and does a great job building strong relationships with parents. Teacher Ms. Chaudhry and Ms. Suresh have been caring, kind, and dedicated teachers who create a warm classroom environment while helping children grow both academically and socially. Another thing that really stands out about Washington Park campus is the sense of community. There's a strong connection between families, students, teachers, and campus leaders. The family engagement efforts are wonderful, and the campus leaders and admissions put a lot of effort into creating opportunities for families to connect and feel involved. This campus has such a warm and welcoming feel, it feels like more than just a school, it feels like a community.

It's calm and easy for kids to settle in. Looking back, we feel genuinely fortunate and grateful for the principal, the Director of Preschool & Kindergarten (Ms. Sandeepa), and the teachers, who truly make this campus stand out. You can feel the heart and intention Ms. Sandeepa brings, and how thoughtfully she uses parent feedback to make the learning journey even more special. I've been impressed many times by the activities she intentionally designs to support children's social-emotional growth, something that matters so much to young kids and might not be emphasized in every Stratford setting. Our daughter enjoys her learning through art, singing, games, and hands-on experiences like exploring the garden and different materials. We also LOVE the Mandarin afterschool program and the teachers. A good leadership team matters so much for a campus. We are happy with our choice and would highly recommend Stratford Washington Park to parents who seek an inclusive learning environment with natural greenery and professional while caring faculties to be with your children 80% of their awake time during weekdays.
