We toured our…read morefair share of preschools/daycares in the area for our older child, and in my opinion, nothing comes close to ABC, where our younger one just graduated. Maroof and her entire team are wonderful. They've been with us through so many stages -- from diapers, to potty training, to eventually using the bathroom independently -- and have always been supportive and collaborative every step of the way. I also really appreciate how much thought they put into the kids' everyday experiences. The lesson plans, Fall Festival, winter and spring concerts, Summer Olympics, animal petting days... everything is planned so thoughtfully and the kids have so much fun. A very special mention to Ms. Jen. We saw so much growth in our child during his TK year. She is incredibly compassionate, really cares about the children, and takes the time to understand and support them. It's honestly bittersweet to be moving on after 3 years. ABC has been such a big part of our child's early years, and we truly feel they've helped set our child up for success as they head to kindergarten. We're going to miss everyone there so much!

Finding a preschool where your children are genuinely loved, challenged, and excited to go every…read moremorning is rare--and that's exactly what we found here. From the very beginning, our children felt safe, happy, and excited to walk into school each day. They weren't just cared for--they were truly known as individuals. The teachers took the time to understand their personalities, encourage their strengths, and help them become more independent, kind, curious, and confident. Looking back over the past few years, it's incredible to see how much they've grown, not only academically but socially and emotionally as well. As working parents, there is no greater gift than complete peace of mind. Knowing our children were in such caring, capable, and loving hands every day allowed us to focus on work with confidence, knowing they were safe, happy, and thriving. What really sets ABC Magic Moments apart is the thought and intention behind everything they do. Every week is filled with creative, hands-on learning through themed lessons, science, art, outdoor exploration, music, special events, and memorable experiences like the Summer Olympics and animal presentations. The children have so much fun that they don't even realize how much they're learning. A heartfelt thank you to Ms. Maroof, Ms. Jen, Ms. Shamim, and the entire team. Their warmth, patience, and dedication are truly exceptional. They create a nurturing environment where every child feels valued, and they build genuine partnerships with parents through thoughtful communication and unwavering support. As our children move on to elementary school, it's bittersweet to say goodbye. ABC Magic Moments has been so much more than a preschool--it has been a place where our children built confidence, friendships, a love of learning, and memories they'll carry with them for years to come. Thank you for giving our children such a wonderful start in life. We will always be grateful for the love, guidance, and care you showed our family. If you're looking for a preschool that combines outstanding education with genuine love and care for every child, I wholeheartedly recommend ABC Magic Moments. We feel incredibly fortunate to have been part of this wonderful community.

This review is long overdue! We love Mission Valley Montessori!!! I first toured this school back…read more at the beginning of 2019 when our 1st daughter was 2 years old and was in awe of how all the children here are so well mannered and calm. Very different compared to other schools I toured. We were placed on a waiting list, enrolled our daughter at another preschool in the meantime and and nearly 18 months later we got a call saying there was an opening for her. Our daughter is extremely shy and has anxiety. Mr. Justin was the head teacher in her class at the time and was so wonderful in guiding and helping her. We chose to keep her at MVM through kindergarten because our younger daughter was also attending and we didn't want to have 2 separate drop off/pick ups. Fast forward to 2025 and we have ended our journey with MVM. Our girls have really enjoyed their time at this school. They have learned so much more than we could have imagined and have made some great friends. In addition to reading, writing (cursive too!) and math, they have been taught how to work with each other and independently, daily life skills, grace and courtesy. The environment is always calm and organized. The teachers and staff are so sweet and it really feels like you're part of a family. There aren't enough words to express our deepest gratitude for all that the MVM staff and teachers have provided for our family.

The staff here are incredible--Mr. Justin, Ms. Monica, Ms. Toni, Ms. May, Ms. Louisa, and her wonderful toddler teachers have all made a lasting impact. My daughter is always so excited to go to school each morning, which says it all. I can't recommend Mission Valley Montessori highly enough--it's truly a special place.

We've seen a noticeable improvement in Vivaan's reading and writing skills, and we really appreciate the personal attention they give each child. It meant a lot to us that they ensured Vivaan finished his meals and encouraged him to participate positively in class.

Ms. Rani has been amazing from the very first site visit all the way through the enrollment process--she made everything feel easy and welcoming. You can really tell how much she cares about creating a positive environment for both the kids and parents. This has been a complete 180 from our previous preschool experience, and I'm so grateful we made the switch. Choosing this school has been one of the best decisions we've made for our children. I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a nurturing and supportive preschool.

I wish I could give more than 5 stars because what Little Apples has done for our son and our…read morefamily is incredible. We started our son in the preschool program and we instantly saw him blossom. Little Apples gave him a safe space to learn and grow, which has now led to such confidence and kindness in our child. Miss Sharon, Miss Wendy, Miss Ashley, and all of the staff here have been so wonderful to us and we can't thank them enough for the wonderful experience. When my husband and I first visited the school, we both saw it as our dream school for our son. As competitive as it is, we were lucky enough to have our son enrolled. Every interaction we've had with Little Apples has been nothing but positive. The staff is super responsive, attentive, and caring. Any time we had questions, they were so quick to respond. They are very committed to ensuring your child is in good hands and well taken care of. The facility is immaculate and they really promote a fun yet educational program that will get your child engaged. We will be forever grateful to Little Apples for helping our son grow into his own. We truly feel that we are part of the Little Apples family and I'm sure you'll feel the exact same if you decide to enroll your children here.

My experience with Little Apples has been absolutely wonderful. I have recommended this preschool…read moreto many of my friends because of the staff's attention to detail and how both my children expressed their enjoyment of school. I started my daughter at little apples at the age of 3 during the pandemic and my son at the age of 2. At the time little apples took all the precautionary measures to keep the students and their family safe. Miss Sharon has always been extremely responsive to questions and my concerns. I appreciated that I could email or call and ask for a short meeting to discuss any concerns I might have had. For example I was concerned about my son's transition to preschool given he was a "biter" but I was reassured by Ms. Sharon with how the staff would handle these types of situations. My daughter has continued with little apples and has been attending their afterschool enrichment program which includes homework help, learning Mandarin, science, STEM, and art. Fastfoward my daughter is now in 2nd grade and my son is in kindergarten, both attending the afterschool program and loving every moment. The staff go above and beyond and both my children have only positive things to share with me when I ask them about their day. They've made so many friends and I've gotten to know many of the other parents. Would highly recommend Little Apples

My son started at My Mother's Hug (MMH) when he was just 20 months old. Today, at 5 years old, he…read moreis graduating from MMH and starting Kindergarten tomorrow. It is hard to put into words how emotional and grateful I feel as we reach this milestone. **MMH truly lives up to its name.** It provided my son with a mother's touch, warmth, hugs, love, and care when he was away from home. One of the main reasons I chose MMH was because of the reviews from other mothers who spoke so highly of the caring and nurturing environment. After almost four years, I can confidently say that those reviews were absolutely right. What makes MMH stand out is its vision and the core purpose behind everything they do -- **the child is always at the center.** My son has grown into an independent, confident, clear-thinking child. I often receive compliments from others saying, "He knows what he wants," and I truly believe a big part of that comes from the MMH curriculum and the everyday activities that focus on the overall development of the child, not just academics. One of the things I admire most about MMH is how they nurture **empathy and compassion** in children. It is something you can genuinely see in the kids at MMH, and I believe it is one of the most valuable qualities a child can develop. I cannot thank **Ms. Monica (Principal), Ms. Fariha (Director, On Mission Campus), Ms. Hetal (my son's current class teacher), Ms. Anisha (Dance Teacher),Sports teacher** and every single teacher who has been a part of my son's journey at MMH enough. Each of you has contributed something special to his growth, and we will always be grateful. And then there is a very special person at MMH -- **Asha Ji**. She is such a loving and warm personality. The kids absolutely adore her. My son calls her the "cooking teacher," but to us, she is so much more than that. The way she greets every child as they enter school, the genuine care she shows, and the special bond she builds with both children and parents make her such an important part of the MMH family. I highly recommend MMH to any parent who feels scared or anxious about sending their little one away from home for the first time. I can personally vouch that the MMH team understands and truly resonates with those feelings. They make sure that your fears gradually disappear because you know your child is being loved, cared for, and nurtured. The children spend meaningful and quality time with their peers. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed and supports every aspect of a child's development. They provide nutritious food, which is so important during these formative years. Most importantly, they take milestones seriously -- whether it is moving away from diapers, learning to eat independently, becoming more social and communicative, or developing confidence and independence. Their recent **Public Speaking program** has also been a huge hit and is another wonderful example of how MMH encourages children to express themselves and build confidence from an early age. There is honestly so much more I could say about this wonderful organization. After almost four years, it feels less like we are saying goodbye to a school and more like we are saying goodbye to an extended family member who has been an important part of our child's life. Thank you, MMH, for giving my son such a beautiful foundation for his next chapter. As he walks into Kindergarten tomorrow, we know he is ready -- and we know that MMH has played a huge role in getting him there. We wish the entire MMH family the very best and hope that every child and every parent who walks through your doors experiences the same love, care, growth, and happiness that we have experienced. **Thank you for being our "Mother's Hug" when we couldn't be there ourselves. **

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Little Tree! Our daughter was a student here for almost…read more2 years and we have loved every minute of it. We would've definitely stayed longer if we could've! When we first toured the daycare, we loved the clean classrooms and we could immediately tell how friendly the staff was. When our daughter first transitioned to school, she was very shy, but the teachers were so incredibly gentle, thoughtful, and patient -- they really took the time to help her feel safe and comfortably adapt at her own pace, especially since Mandarin and English were not her first languages. It amazes me that now she's able to speak and sing in both Mandarin and English. We love the curriculum and the students learn so much at Little Tree. The teachers genuinely love these kids and it shows in the little details, the communication, and how excited our daughter was to go to school every day. We're so grateful for this loving and nurturing community and highly, highly recommend it to any family.

You can tell they really take care of the school, because they care about the kids. Our daughter loved coming here, all the teachers and staff are so kind. She was a bit shy in the beginning not knowing mandarin, but she slowly opened up and now code switches to talk to different people (even outside of school). Everyone was so patient with her and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. They really teach the kids a lot and set them up to be as independent as possible. Occasionally they have performances too. They are probably the best part, and they should do more of them. All the tuition is worth it when they sang "My Beautiful Mommy". Luckily we'll still be seeing them, as our 2nd one is just starting her journey, and we can't wait to see how much she'll change.

But thanks to Teacher Mei, he adjusted surprisingly fast - within just a week! Now, after a month, he's eating by himself more, putting on his own shoes, and even starting to insist on doing everything "myself, myself!" Teacher Mei is amazing - super professional, observant, and really knows how to guide kids in just the right way. You can tell she genuinely cares about each child's growth, not just "watching" them but actually teaching them real life skills. Plus, she's bilingual in English and Mandarin, which is such a bonus. I feel so lucky to have found MSJCC. Highly recommend it to any parents looking for a place where your kid will not only be safe and happy, but also learn independence little by little.

We are truly grateful for the positive impact Mission San Jose Children Center--especially Ms…read more Mei--has had on our family. She is a caring, patient, and professional teacher who truly understands children and knows how to guide them with both love and structure. Ms. Mei pays close attention to each child's needs.

Whenever I've had parenting questions, she patiently offers thoughtful, professional advice. Her support means so much to us. One of the biggest advantages of this center is the bilingual environment. Our child has developed strong skills in both Mandarin and English naturally, which we believe will benefit them greatly in the long run. We've seen some negative reviews, but honestly, some of them seem more like emotional venting than a reflection of the real situation.From our own experience, Ms. Mei and the staff here are truly dedicated and responsible.

Both of my children--a 6-year-old boy and a 4-year-old girl--spent two wonderful years at MSF. Our…read morejourney began when my son joined Ms. Angeline's class at 3.5 years old, after a disappointing experience at a chain private school. From the moment he started at MSF, we saw a remarkable difference. He was genuinely happy each day and looked forward to his "working time" at school. Ms. Angeline has a deep respect for each child as an individual. She nurtured our son's growth both academically and personally, helping him gain confidence in expressing his needs and tailoring projects to match his interests and developmental needs. The environment she created in the Evergreen B class was warm, engaging, and thoughtfully structured. Because of the incredible experience our son had, we decided to enroll our daughter at MSF as well. She joined Ms. June's class and also had a wonderful time. Coming from a full Chinese-speaking environment, the transition to an English-speaking classroom could have been challenging--but Ms. June, being bilingual, provided the perfect support. Our daughter was very shy at first, but Ms. June thoughtfully paired her with older, bilingual classmates and helped her adjust with care and patience. In less than half a year, school became her favorite place to be. We especially appreciated the school's community spirit and special events, such as International Week and Sharing Night, which brought families together and created lasting memories.

My son attended Montessori School of Fremont for two years before kindergarten, and based on our…read moreexperience, I would not recommend it to other families. My main concern was with his teacher. Over two years, I didn't see meaningful effort to teach or support my son. Instead, the feedback I received was that "your child is not suited for Montessori" -- which felt less like a thoughtful assessment and more like a way to avoid working with him. A Montessori environment is supposed to meet a child where they are; that wasn't our experience. I also found the administrative side of the school to be inflexible in a way that didn't feel parent-friendly. On one occasion in two years, I was ~1 minute late at pickup due to traffic and was charged a late fee. A one-time delay being treated the same as a chronic issue tells you something about the culture. Other parents may have had a different experience, and I'm sure some children thrive here. Ours did not, and I wanted to share an honest account for parents who are weighing this school.
