Excellent & Engaging School for Young Learners…read more We've had a wonderful experience here, and our son is thriving in both TK and now continuing into KG: Warm, welcoming teachers -- staff are cooperative, approachable, and genuinely connect with the kids. Our son feels at ease and excited every day. Strong academics paired with rich co-curriculars -- there's a great balance between core learning and activities like drama, public speaking, and dance performances. Post-school TK program -- a smooth transition program that set him up well for KG, and now he loves being there every day. Excellent communication -- the school app is responsive; whenever we reach out, we get a quick, reassuring reply. Safe, nurturing environment -- it feels very secure, and parents can truly feel at ease. Students enjoy it -- our son always talks about his day, the fun activities, and how much he loves going here!

We've been part of this aftercare family for more than 2 years years now, and I can't say enough…read moregood things about it. My son has been attending since his 4th grade, and now that my daughter just completed her first year, I can confidently say this program continues to exceed our expectations. What I love most is the balance they strike -- the kids get their homework done (a huge help for us at home!), but they also have so much fun. My two always come home talking about the different activities they did -- from dancing and singing to games. It's clear the staff puts a lot of thought and heart into keeping the kids engaged and happy. A real highlight for our family is the year-end and school-end performances. Watching our kids up on stage dancing and singing is very joyous. We feel incredibly lucky to have found such a safe, supportive, and inspiring place for our kids after school. Thank you for everything you do! Special thanks to Ms.Shefali and Ms.Renuka for all the support.

Our daughter has grown up here, and as she moves over to the kindergarten side, we are genuinely sad to say "see you later" to the preschool staff who have loved and cared for her so well. From day one, we have felt incredibly lucky to have found such a warm, welcoming community. The teachers and staff are not only professional and attentive, they are truly kind, patient, and invested in each child. Our daughter is always excited to go to school, which says everything to me as a parent. One of the things we love most is how family-centered the school is. They do such a great job of bringing everyone together with fun, meaningful events throughout the year, some of our favorites: - The Hawaiian Back-to-School Dinner - Popsicles with POP, where the kids can worship, play, and of course enjoy popsicles - The fall festival - A beautiful Nativity during the holidays - Vacation Bible School (VBS) in the summer These events have helped us build real connections with other families and made the school feel like an extension of our home. We are so grateful for the love, care, and support our daughter has received here. If you're looking for a preschool where your child will be nurtured, encouraged, and excited to learn, and where your whole family will feel welcome, I highly recommend POP!

My son spent 9 years at this daycare -- it was supposed to be his safe place, his second home. But…read moreinstead, he was repeatedly called the N-word by other children, and painfully, the daughter of a teacher who works there also called him a racial slur. No child should have to endure that -- especially not in a place meant to protect them. When my son found the courage to speak up, hoping for support and safety, he was instead quietly pushed out. No goodbyes. Just excuses. This was supposed to be his last summer before middle school -- a milestone he looked forward to with so much excitement. He was especially looking forward to seeing some of his friends who come to the daycare only in the summer but don't go to his school. Now, all he's left with is heartbreak and confusion. He wonders why the children who hurt him remain welcomed with open arms, while he was the one punished for simply standing up for himself. That message -- that speaking out leads to being cast aside -- is crushing, and no child should ever feel that way. What hurts even more is knowing that one of the children who called him a slur is the daughter of a teacher who works there. It makes me question what kind of environment truly exists within these walls. My son deserved so much better. Every child deserves to be safe, seen, and protected. **************Edit/Response to Owner's Reply:*********************** Thank you for your response, but I feel it's important to clarify and respond to several things you said. Yes, the incident with the staff member's daughter happened over text--but she is the daughter of a teacher who still works at your daycare. That matters. Children often pick up language and attitudes from their home environment. The fact that this child felt comfortable using a racial slur says a lot about what may be normalized around her--and that should raise serious concerns about the values being modeled by your staff. You referred to it as a "disagreement" that took place "outside of school," but calling someone a racial slur is not a disagreement. It's racism. And this wasn't an isolated case. My son was called racial slurs by at least five different children during his time at your daycare. Each time, the response was minimal--typically just a forced apology, and once, a classroom reassignment. No real consequences. No restorative practices. No signs that the deeper issue was taken seriously. The most alarming part is that the last time my son was called a slur, we weren't even notified. We only found out because I went through his tablet where he was talking about it with a friend. When my husband emailed you directly asking how our son would be protected going forward--because he still wanted to attend summer camp and be with his friends--you never responsed. Then suddenly we were told he couldn't attend, even though he'd attended for nearly a decade and we'd never once had issues with timing or enrollment in past years. Let's be honest: this wasn't about a missed deadline. It was about avoiding discomfort. It was easier to remove our son than to address what was happening to him. He wasn't given a proper goodbye. He wasn't offered support. He was quietly pushed out. Sunshine was supposed to be a safe place. Instead, it became the place that showed him that when you speak up about racism, you might be the one who gets excluded. He deserved better. Every child does.

Sunshine Kids is a caring, convenient, flexible, and affordable place for child care and after…read moreschool care. Sunshine is family owned; the owners Ms Kelly and Ms Nathan have young kids so they understand the challenges parents and kids face. They are open minded, friendly, supportive, and honest. As a working parent with 3 young kids, I need a child care place where I trust. I also need convenience where they can pickup kids from school to afterschool care so parents don't need to take time off during midday. I also need flexibility where they can drop off and pickup kids to other extracurricular activities within the plaza such as Kumon, Cal color, Ping Pong, and Music/Piano. Sunshine meets all my expectations. Sunshine really distinguishes itself with their flexibility! When my sons had afterschool activities at Warm Springs or Leitch Elementary such as basketball practice and games, math contest, or chess class; Mr Jeffrey the transportation manager did not hesitate and made extra trip to pick them up. In addition, when my son needed to attend other extra curriculum class 5 mins drive away from Sunshine, Sunshine didn't hesitate to help. I had never thought an affordable afterschool care place can accommodate these additional service!!! Sunshine is very reliable and really makes things easier for working parents. Not everything was perfect. When my kids started preschool at Sunshine, all of them had a rocky start. All felt sick during first week. It was heartbreaking for me. In hindsight, all toddlers go through this journey of catching germs and building up their immunity when interacting with other children. After few months, they were fine. Talking to other parents, this is a challenge for all young kids going to any preschool the first time. I've been with Sunshine since 2015; they are like my second family entrusted in taking great care of my 3 kids when I'm at work. Thank you Ms Kelly, Mr Nathan, and Mr Jeffrey!

My son has been attending this place for almost a year now, and it has been a truly wonderful…read moreexperience. I feel incredibly blessed that he is in such a nurturing and supportive environment. While reading through some of the reviews, I noticed a few negative ones and took the time to understand their perspective. To be honest, I feel it's a bit unfair for a place to receive a low rating because children spend a lot of time playing outside, make crafts using scissors, or because a child cried when adjusting to school. These, in my opinion, are natural parts of childhood and development. Personally, I would only leave a negative review if I had a genuinely bad experience, such as staff not doing their job, children being unsafe, not being cared for properly, or not being treated with love and respect. But that has not been my experience here at all. As parents, we all have different expectations and values when it comes to raising our children, and we naturally want environments that align with them. For me, this place has done a beautiful job with my son. He is in an environment full of play, learning, love, and strong values. I don't want my child to be in a competitive or stressful setting at such a young age. In fact, I've been pleasantly surprised by skills he developed here that I hadn't explored much at home, like using scissors confidently. Instead of seeing it as something negative, I realized I had been underestimating him. He is capable of so much more. The teachers are incredibly kind and supportive. I've even asked them for advice on things like potty training and how to handle tantrums at home, and they've always been helpful and thoughtful. Overall, I am deeply grateful for the care, dedication, and love they show every day.

Discoveryland Milpitas is a Christian Daycare, but you don't have to be a Christian to attend here…read more It's not a fancy or academic rigorous daycare like Stratford and Montessori, but that's ok because these kids are just toddlers to about 5 yrs old. Once they are in grade school, they can enroll in the Foothill Adventist Elementary next door on the same campus. I pulled my 3 year old fr his home based daycare and transitioned him here so I can claim childcare on my taxes, give him more structure, socialization with his peers and I can see the difference. Instead of him glued stuck on the babysitter's TV or iPad, he has outdoor play, arts and crafts, gradual learning words and numbers. Most importantly, they learn manners and are geared towards what's appropriate and not. In the summertime, they are laxed and allow the children to enjoy the outdoor more. They also have fun activities planned with game day, waterworks's, rent jump houses, etc. Childcare hrs 7:30-6pm, max hrs/day a child can be there is 9.5 hrs. They provide breakfast, snacks and lunch which is all vegetarian. They prep their nutritious food onsite. Only downfall is they use disposables plates, etc which is not environmentally friendly. Office staff is friendly and always greeting with nice salutations. My son got scared of his teacher for a while, but that was because he was misbehaving. Other than that, it's a pretty nurturing environment. Compared to other childcare center, it's more affordable and food is provided. They also have some financial aid for those who qualify.

Everyone from the teachers to the staff to the principal- they're the best people ever! They genuinely love all the children. I've watched my kid grow from his first day when he wanted to go home to a kid who can't wait to go to school every morning. He even asks me to pick him up later so he can play longer with his friends! My son started pre-pandemic and continued through virtual and then back on campus- so we've seen how MCS has dealt with change and the obstacles covid-19 threw at them and wow they were amazing. They really stepped up to the challenge every step of the way. They exceeded all expectations and then some. They always helped me get to the point where I was comfortable with things and went above and beyond in every stage of the pandemic. They were amazing pre-covid but they really shined during covid. Their virtual learning was so good and the teachers (Mr. Urbach) were able to adapt so well! We went back on campus in September - and they made us feel as safe as they could - following social distancing protocols, constantly cleaning, etc- while providing such a great education and support system for my child and myself! It has been a struggle this year for everyone but the love and support and the dedication that the staff and the teachers have provided for me and my family has been amazing and I don't think can ever properly express how thankful I am for them. Also- logistically as a preschool their schedule is amazing and the kids really get to learn about themselves and Math and literature and the Bible. It's a good balance of play and fun and learning and they get to do so much art! They have a lot of activities to help develop their fine and gross motor skills. Not only does MCS provide a good education but they also provide a good foundation in helping these young children be confident and caring young individuals. They definitely give them all the tools both academically and socially for them to succeed- which seems like it'll be a great foundation for them as they move forward in life.

I really wanted to give this school 5 stars, but i was so disappointed in our experience this year…read more i think if your child attends the morning or all day session, you would have a great experience. and I would recommend this preschool to anyone looking for that time slot. but for us, my child was in the afternoon session. it was great in the beginning of the year. i saw a lot of progress and the teachers are wonderful. you can tell that the kids are cared for. but after the start of the new year, they took out some of the older kids from the all day class they kept piling in more and more new younger kids in the afternoon class. this class was supposed to be a 4 yr old class to prep for kindergarten. now over half the class are 2 and 3 year olds. the poor teacher is stuck with bored 4 yr olds and younger kids that can't keep up. no one is really learning anything new. the director was showing around a new aide and i overheard her refer to the class as the "buffet class". not sure if that's something to be proud of! if the school is going to advertise a 4 yr old program, they should stick with it throughout the whole year. I'm just am really disappointed. i was hoping to send my younger one here, but now i think I'll have to look elsewhere.

Shoutout to her very first teachers in the Green class, Ms. Priya and Ms. Anna, who were so engaging and nurturing, creating a foundation for my child to "want to go to school" and allowed her to seamlessly transition from a daycare to a more formal school setting. In the second year, Red class teachers Ms. Zhila and Ms. Ma, created a caring, interactive classroom with academic focus to prepare the kids for kindergarten. Kudos also to other class teachers and the kind and welcoming staff including Ms. Usha, Ms. Malu, Ms. Marian, and Ms. Van. The school uses an app that allows for easy communication with the teachers, and we are kept up to date on lunch menu, curriculum, and photos. The school is comprehensive in their social activities such as annual winter performance, holiday celebrations, parent teacher conferences, family events, etc. The kids also have regular music and kung fu classes. The school is bilingual English/Mandarin, with a daily Mandarin language learning component, so it is helpful to have some exposure to the language and culture so the kids can understand better, and the lunches are sometimes Chinese meals. Teachers are supportive and open to address any concerns at any time. Classrooms and playground are large, clean, and bright. My child has thrived, socially and academically, at Ready Preschool due to the support and care of a great team of loving and dedicated teachers. We can't thank them enough, and highly recommend Ready Preschool!

He's been in 3 of the 4 classrooms and all his teachers have been wonderful. While he was in the orange room, Ms Miriam and Ms Van took great care of him. He was still in diapers and we partnered with the teachers there to get him potty trained. In the green room he had Ms Priya and Ms Anna and they had to be his favorite teachers there. Currently he's in the red room and his teachers are Ms Zhila and Ms Ma. He's learned so much in a short time, he's doing addition, teaching me about matter, and planting vegetables. His teachers are so kind, dedicated, and caring. One of the biggest perks is that the provide lunch and snacks. My son always finishes his lunch and we're told he asks for seconds. We receive the monthly lessons and weekly photos. There are also activities happening every month, in addition to music class and kung fu. They also still continue nap time even in the red room so your child gets some rest after lunch. The school provides a great balance of academic and social skills. The students are majority Chinese and there are daily Chinese lessons. Even though we do not speak mandarin at home he's picked up mandarin in class and was able to sing us songs, speak some phrases, and count to 10.

We first enrolled our daughter at Empire Montessori Preschool right before she turned 3. At the…read moretime, we honestly didn't know what to expect. She had previously been in a home daycare, so we were a little anxious about how she would adjust to a new and much bigger environment. Thankfully, everything turned out wonderfully! The teachers in the toddler room were so kind, patient, and supportive, which made her transition very smooth. She also became potty trained fairly quickly after seeing the other children use the toilets independently, with lots of encouragement and help from her teachers. After transitioning to the preschooler room, she continued to have wonderful teachers who were caring and patient. The teachers, together with the director, Ms. July, were always there to help whenever we had questions or needed support. We also loved the activities at school, they were fun and engaging while helping her learn about numbers, phonics, the solar system, and so much more. As a bilingual family, we especially appreciated the bilingual environment. It allowed our daughter to feel comfortable expressing herself in either Mandarin or English, which was very important to us. And perhaps the most special part of her time at Empire was that she made her best friend there! Even after graduating from Empire, the two kids are still close and continue to get together for playdates We are very grateful for the wonderful teachers and staff at Empire for making our daughter's preschool experience such a positive one. I would definitely recommend Empire to any family considering a preschool for their little one!

Our older daughter was only there for about two months, but in that short time she genuinely thrived.

Her Mandarin improved drastically, and so much of that credit goes to Ms. Ying, Ms. Lisa, and Ms. Kari, who are warm, attentive, and genuinely care about each child. As a busy family, we also appreciated that Empire provides meals and plans so many fun activities throughout the year, including a petting zoo, bounce house, water play, holiday celebrations, and more. Ms. July, the director, is consistently responsive and communicative, and any time we had a question or concern, she was quick to get back to us. We're so grateful for the community Empire built around our girls. Highly recommend!
