We truly appreciate the collaborative approach that they have with the parents and they encourage our involvement with activities. The teachers are well trained and in tune to not only the cognitive and educational development of the children, but also the social emotional as well, which is something HUGE for me! Our twins have been coming since they were three and it's so heartwarming to see the teachers all love on them and know them by name and share the funny stories about their day to day interactions with our kids with us as if they were members of our own family. Greater still is that OUR kids know the teachers by name--even the ones that aren't even theirs! There's such a beautiful sense of community and care. I'm so heartbroken that we aren't finishing out the year as we are relocating to the east coast come March. But I can't recommend New Hope Preschool enough to parents searching for a loving, nurturing environment where the faculty are skilled in all facets of child development. New Hope is definitely a gem and we will forever remember our experience here and are grateful to have our kids starting experience with education come from such a wonderful place.

The church is fantastic, and the kids program there for during church services is GREAT and this review is ONLY pertaining to the Eastlake Children's Center preschool which is run M-F. I was very eager to enroll my son in this program. I had heard so many amazing things about this program and it was an added bonus that we love our church. I even provided paperwork to this program when my son was approximately 1 year old (they don't take kids until they are 2 but I wanted to ensure we were not waitlisted as I had read that they were such a popular program). My son finally was enrolled this July for the 2024-25 school year. When he started he was fully potty trained. As school started it was clear there was some new school year kinks needing to be worked out regarding organization and teachers. I tried to remain positive and provide grace when a new teacher I had never met would be giving me my child without an ID check. My son immediately had potty accidents. More than when he started training. I thought this was simply because there are no potty's in the classrooms as typical 2 year rooms have at most programs. Assuming it's just a distance to potty adjustment we proceeded on. However, my son started hitting himself and yelling at himself in the potty when he was home saying "YOU GO POTTY IN TOILET NOT POTTY IN PANTS!" then would hit his leg. He's never behaved in this way. It broke my heart. I spoke to Ms. Jeanette at the front about how I think the teachers may be yelling at him and stressing him out about the bathroom here, and it's affecting us at home. They started making me put pullups on him (which we have NEVER done). The accidents never got better. I could never talk to his teacher because his main teacher was only there from 830-12 with him. Because he was a full time kid, I would be picking him up from different random teachers all the time. Some wouldn't even know which kid was mine when I said his name even thought he had been at the school a month at this point. About 2 weeks into school I picked my son up (again from a random teacher I've never met the 2 weeks prior to this) and he had a huge scrape on his forehead, as if he had fallen head first on cement. My son has been in a daycare setting since he was a baby, so I am aware that I should be getting an "ouch report" anytime there is an injury of a child, even if they are unsure how it happened. Once they see an injury, they need to report when that injury was noticed. At his last daycare I would also get a phone call for any head injuries. I got nothing here. However, it's only the 2nd week of school and I just let it go and chalked it up to the new school year situation. New teachers etc. About a week and a half later I picked my son up and he had a scrape on his nose that was bloody and thick. I didn't say anything to the teacher at pick up because when I gave the name of my child I had to point at which child he was for her to know who to give me. (again terrible security and no ID was checked). If she doesn't know my kid by his name, she def doesn't know what happened to his nose. No ouch report. Since I was already waiting to hear back from the director via email regarding my request to meet with her, I decided I would bring it up then. Then, the very next day my son had yet a THIRD scratch on his face with no ouch report. As I walked out I stopped to talk to Ms. Jeanette (I think she's the assistant director?) and I told her this is the 3rd time in 2 weeks my son has bloody marks/scratches on his face with no ouch report. All she said was "yeah you should have an ouch report" and that was it. I was hoping for "well let's contact his teacher and figure out what's happening" or "maybe we can ask the teachers to see if they set it somewhere besides his cubby" or "I will talk to the teachers and figure out what's going on" but she didn't seem to care at all. She took no worry to this. Again, I've had my son in daycare settings for a while, so I am not one of those overly paranoid parents, but the lack of concern for my son's safety, especially regarding facial injuries frequently over a short period was alarming. I immediately pulled him from the program, and reported them to state licensing. My son had been in school there only 1 month. During the time I enrolled him officially in February 2024 until the day I pulled him from the program there were THREE licensing violations- one of which was a teacher physically abusing children and another was a teacher leaving a child alone on the playground! This program used to be the best around. There was a change in the leadership of the preschool a couple years back, and needless to say the program is NOT what it used to be. My husband said that most times he picked our son u

In fact, he loved the environment so much that when it was time for TK, he refused to go to another school.

Ms. Norma, the teachers, and the administrative staff created such a caring, patient, and supportive environment.

We are so used to sitting on some hot bleachers for two hours before they call your kid's name off the list at other schools. This was in a very nice air conditioned, newly remodeled auditorium. He is my second grandchild to graduate from this school, we still have one more to go and a handful of nieces & nephews who also attend. So overall we have been coming here to school performances and Holiday shows since my eldest grandson started here in 2011. He is now in High School at Mater Dei. I was a bit reticent when they started going to this school because I would have preferred them to attend a Catholic private school. Because we are Catholic. But as usual time has proven me wrong. The wonderful academic excellence and innovation, that this school provides has showed me that, the right choice was made. I see how happy and well rounded my grandkids have become. They are into sports, music; one plays the cello incredibly well. It seems that this school places a high priority on individual achievements, probably due to the 13:1 student teacher ratio. All of this with the added benefit of providing a moral education along with the academic one. The school is very well maintained, and the staff is incredible. Grandparents are treated as special guests; we even have a special day when the kids perform just for us. So, in my humble opinion this is one of, if not the finest private pre-school to 8th grade school in Chula Vista. I am a fan and I guess always have been. I highly recommend this illustrious private school!

The Good & The Bad…read more Start with the Good: Some of the teachers are amazing. My son loves Ms. Kerry, he will ask for her on the weekends and we have to explain Ms. Kerry is at school. He talks about her on the drive to school, and can't wait to spend the day with her. She's made a comforting lasting impression on my son that I'm very grateful for. She's cares for him, fixed his "boo boos", taught him so much that words can't describe how grateful we are she's in his life, even if it is at school. He also adores Ms. Cheli, she runs a tight ship, but the children listen and follow her lead as you can see her experience is valid and spot on. The Bad: The classrooms can be too much. Especially the twos and early preschool. Teachers are stressed, over worked and Im sure crap Pay for the work they do. They deserve so much more. Many times I've walked in the building to managers and directors standing up in the office gossiping about teachers, other families. Especially teachers and other employees within the company. Not just once but several. They don't care. They don't get people can hear them when we are standing in the office. Or while I'm checking my child in the computer, the office door is open, and you have the two directors gossiping about their own employees and people can hear everything. Very unprofessional. Yet they know their teachers need help sometimes, but they would rather sit up there and gossip, and talk mad game instead of supporting the teachers and classrooms that look like a circus sometimes. Kuddos to the teachers hanging and holding on, your management is something else (not in a good way), we only stay for the specific teachers my son loves, but I know as he gets older he will not always have them.

The teachers and staff are incredibly attentive and caring. They celebrate milestones and traditions with such thoughtfulness, and their attention to detail really shows in the way they approach both academics and social-emotional development. It is clear that every child is seen, valued, and supported here. Our oldest daughter attended for 3 years and her transition into kindergarten was seamless. She was not only academically prepared but also socially and emotionally ready to thrive in a new setting. Now that she is in elementary school, we continue to see the lasting benefits of her Montessori foundation; she is confident, independent, and loves learning. Our younger child is currently enrolled, and he comes home happy and excited every single day. At such a young age, we can already see how he is flourishing, gaining independence, and building a genuine love for school. Choosing Growing Minds has been one of the best decisions we've made for our children's education and growth.

I don't like to give bad reviews to small business owners but what happened to our boy on his last…read moreday of pre-school was unacceptable. I am a foster mom and had two boys that attended COLA, one of them graduated last year and the little one was still there. We see everybody at the school 3 days a week and bio mom takes him to class two days a week. This arrangement went on for an entire year. On 7/14, we dropped off our boy to his last day of pre-k. My husband picked him up early to bring him home and get him ready for his ceremony and at 11:47 I receive I text message from my husband asking if I noticed a scratch and bruise on his face. I had not noticed any scratches or bruises but I remember taking a video of him that morning eating breakfast and took pictures of him before he went to school and those injuries were not there. He came home with a very noticeable scratch on his lower lip, a scratch above his lip and a bruise on the other side of his face. By this I had already sent the director and the owner a text asking what had happened at school and why we weren't notified. I was very upset and asked to find out what had happened. When my husband was at the school the director told him that my boy said it happened at home but he told my husband it happened outside during one of the recess breaks. When I asked my boy, he said that a teacher was there, he cried and also a student was there. The owner responded to my text by saying "we will take it up with his mom thank you". That was not the answer I was expecting, I wanted an answer. My boy just came home with his face messed up on his final day. Any parent would be concerned and want answers right away. I called the bio mom and let her know what had happened, since we had already agreed to meet at the school at 1 I told her I would see her there and we could speak with the owner and try to find out what happened. During that exchange, the owner would not speak to my husband as well. I understand that bio-mom is the legal person that the owner has to notify and speak to but it is not up to the owner to deny speaking at all when it was obvious that the bio-mom wanted us there and had no issue with us hearing what had happened. Bio-mom consented to us being there so the owner had no right to deny us information or to make that decision for bio-mom. I believe that the owner only wanted to speak to bio-mom because she knows that she could easily intimidate, manipulate, or talk down to her which she can't get away with when speaking to us. From the point when the owner first arrived at the school, she was more concerned with ignoring us and being disrespectful then to actually show any concern about the boy. Not once did she look at him, ask about him, or inquire about what had happened. She was more upset about us "demanding" to know what happened than anything else. The owner further stated that the boy getting injured "did not matter" because it was the last day of school. Funny thing was that less than 48 hours before I was yelled at by a teacher during a field trip on a hot day because I was giving my hungry and thirsty boy water and food. A day later, the owner confronted me again about that same incident. Apparently giving water and food to a child does matter but a child getting hurt 48 hours later "does not matter". The owner of COLA and as such has to take ownership when things go wrong. She can't hide behind her bad attitude or want parents to wait over 72 hours later to have a meeting with her. Apparently, she had no time after the ceremony, or Saturday or Sunday to review the video of the incident. She has no people skills to say something to the effect that she is getting prepared for a graduation but will look into the incident immediately thereafter. She constantly escalated the issue instead of being professional. A simple demonstration that she cared about what had happened would have sufficed. She was more upset about us "demanding" to know what happened like this incident was something insignificant. Apparently it was insignificant because in her words, a child getting hurt on the last day of school "does not matter". Some people try to hide their true self behind religion but the owner puts on this façade that she is this caring and nurturing educator and just because she runs a religious school she thinks that those qualities, values, and morals that one associates with religion will somehow be attributed to her as well. People will undoubtedly show their true qualities, values and morals and it took this incident to show her true colors!i

I have an autistic non verbal daughter who went to Eastlake kinder care, and a teacher in 2a classroom ms.paula along with other staff physically mistreated her and called her names, they purposefully removed all the toys and furniture from the classroom and said it was all my daughters fault. Another staff member who is a teacher in the 3s class Olivia, stated to the director Ashley, that they've disenrolled children for less and teachers would quit their jobs behind my daughter's autism. I worked at Kindercare at the time as a teachers aid as well, and when talking to Ashley Enwia the director about this situation I was ask to ignore the abuse on my child. The assistant director Alexa stated to me that she did in fact see and hear the horrible things staff members had to say about my daughter but she brushed it off of her shoulder and said I should the same. I made a licensing report and the director manipulated the staff intimidating them to not speak up against the abuse that involved my daughter or they'd be retaliated against! I would never recommend this daycare to anyone, I've been a teacher and director for over 11 years and this is a constant repeated theme of this center. It is NOT an all inclusive center, if u have a child with autism or a disability please find somewhere else to go, I am not the only parent with this issue here. It's truly disgusting. Not to mention, there is no real structured curriculum, it's a glorified baby sitter center, far from a learning center. They charge an extra $30-$60 per week to teach your child how to read and write. I've literally never heard of such a ridiculous to have for a "learning center" . read more

Eastlake Kindercare is amazing. This was my daughters first time at a daycare. She was 1 years old when she started at Kindercare. I can definitely say my daughter gained so much knowledge during her time here. Every day after pick up she showed me something new she learned. People often tell me " you're daughter is so smart for her age". I always tell them Kindercare really expanded her vocabulary and motor skills. Ms. Laura, Ms. Summer and staff are always so welcoming and made sure to keep me updated with how my daughter was doing through the Kindercare App utilized. They will update with pictures, food served, how much my daughter consumed, and diaper changes. In addition, they made it so easy to notify staff of any care needs my daughter needed. It is truly AMAZING!! especially for us parents who are nervous about leaving our children for the first time. Aside form the excellent care they provide. Their hours of operation are very accommodating for parents who work full time jobs. I never had to worry about being late for drop off or pick up. I will 100% recommend this childcare facility for any families. read more

Ms. Elizabeth is so loving with all children, especially our son who was a bit quiet and had a speech delay. Ms. Lou was a great fit for him as well with her daily art projects but I understand she is no longer at the school. We appreciate the provided food which is prepared in their kitchen. Now that my boys are older, they go occasionally for camp during school breaks. See you again soon. :)

My 5 star review is really overdue. My two older children attended this school and had a great…read moreexperience. Years passed and it was time for my baby #3 to find a school. I retoured all the local Montessori schools and decided to come back to Montessori hills for my third. It truly is the best for our family and it seemed like nothing had changed since my other children went to this school. She's been there for months and everything was going well. Until she started biting out of nowhere. We received incident reports and calls from the teachers and principal. I felt so horrible, but all the teachers and the principal have really been supportive through this. They were firm that this is serious because obviously they don't want the other children to get bitten, but they were also caring and understanding that it's part of her development. I'm a third time parent and this is the first time I'm going through this. They gave me so many tools and resources and have given my child extra support during this time. I could not be more grateful for their guidance. I read another review below saying it's a good school until your child is a problem child. Well I felt like my child became the problem child but in my experience they helped support us through the challenges and it seemed like they really cared. They put a plan in place and I felt like we were all a team in helping my child. She's improved so much because of the care and extra support we have all been pouring into her. Again- I am so grateful to the staff, teachers and the principal. I feel like my toddler and us as a family have really been supported here. Thank you Montessori hills.

I did tour about 5 other schools prior to enrolling her & I am 100% sure there is no other school like this one. She loves it there so much and all the friends she has made! From the director all the way down to the newest teacher, they truly care about every single one of the kids. 100/10!

We set measurable goals for ourselves as adults in order to track growth and development, but don't always know how to do so for our own children. Let MARY ANN, MONIQUE & STAFF do so for you. You'll find that your child's superior development (in different areas) will be the by-product of their utmost attention and care!

I cannot recommend this daycare based on my family's experience…read more From the time my children were enrolled, I had ongoing issues with billing. I was quoted one monthly tuition amount during enrollment, but after my children started attending, I was charged significantly more than what had been discussed. In addition, I experienced repeated billing errors, and I often had to reach out to have charges corrected. It was frustrating to constantly question whether my bill was accurate. We did love Ms. Isis and Ms. Kelly they were so nice and compassionate with the kids. My biggest concern, however, was the daycare's handling of staff conduct. I learned that there were concerns about a teacher being rough with children, and I was disappointed by how the situation was handled. As a parent, I expect any concerns involving children's safety and well-being to be addressed promptly and communicated appropriately. Because of the ongoing billing problems and my concerns about how serious issues were managed, I made the decision to disenroll my children. I hope the daycare improves its billing practices, communication, and accountability so other families have a better experience.
