The waitlist for Comienza was soooo long but I am glad when we got the Corazon call. My son is a founding student and this campus has always exceeded our expectations! From teacher communication and involvement they just do so well. My son has gotten lucky having amazing teachers as well, Ms Baroudos, who he had for 2 years was beyond amazing. She genuinely cared and her hard work and time never went unnoticed. With virtual learning the campus has continued to work hard for all students. I love the fact that my sons teacher is only a text away. Super communicative and supporting as we venture into this virtual learning. I honestly can't wait until my second son enrolls and hopes he gets the same teachers as my first as they have made such a huge impact on my first born! I definitely recommend this school to anyone looking. I am not from the LA area originally so I was nervous to say the least. However, KIPP has always been a great and safe space!

I really loved everything they offered during our time there.

As a parent, I was heartbroken and worried about how he would adjust. Ms. Katy, the Director, gave me hope when she assured me that they would work with both Kayden and me.

Since then, Kayden has made amazing progress. The crying and screaming have greatly improved, and today my tears were happy tears. Creative Day Preschool never gave up on my child.

All 3 teachers helped her in different ways and they were all so wonderful. This year, she has been with Ms. Diamond. Ms. Diamond is rainbows, magic, and sparkles mixed all together. My child loves her and I know she always has the best intentions for all of her students. My child has improved in many different ways and we're so glad to have Creative Day as a part of our village. My family is truly so lucky to have them. We are so sad to be transitioning out of Ms. Diamonds class, but so excited to get to work with the other teachers as my child continues to grow.

I think there are 5 staff members there now, but the place is owned and run by a mother-daughter team. They have a daily curriculum that includes "circle time" where they instruct the kids. They also feed them lunches cooked on the spot! I would recommend this place to anyone with young kids in the area.

Her speech got better and she was able to communicate more. She had a better pallet and loved eating more fruits and veggies. Her nap time was a breeze when she was home. It was just the cutest thing picking her up and her being so excited to show me that her teacher did her hair. I work hectic hours and sometimes my daughter's hair didn't get the attention it needed. I'd pick her up to see my daughter in the cutest hairstyles and it just showed how much these teachers and staff cared about the kids. I just absolutely adored this place and am quite sad she won't be attending anymore. Off to Kindergarten she goes but I can also say how easy the transition was because of Creative Beginnings. She was so excited for Kindergarten and it's been such an easy drop off. I love how much more independent she's been. Liane the director was just so sweet and I know my little girl is going to miss them all.

I highly recommend Creative Beginnings. My oldest son started attending the infant/daycare center…read moresince he was 18 months. He's now 3.5 years old and in the preschool program. The preschool program is very engaging for kids - they do fun crafts, worksheets and have play time/games every day. Our preschooler loves his teachers and classmates and is very happy about his experience there. He temporarily went to another preschool for a month while CBS was closed and it was NOT a good experience at all (way too many kids to one teacher; no structure or planned activities for the kids). Even though CBS doesn't offer live cameras or dailly photos of your kids, I trust my preschooler in the care of the staff. They are courteous and truly care about the children and their well being. I also appreciate that the school follows COVID protocols and is a nut free facility as my preschooler has a peanut allergy. Our youngest son is 19 months and we will be sending him to the infant/daycare center next month in October.
