I am so so so grateful for Sage Academy. Entrusting anyone with your child is not a decision I made…read morelightly. I searched far and wide to make sure my child was going to be in the best hands. I couldn't have picked a better school. Kristi, Lisa and Rosa made the enrollment process painless and I love that I can reach out to them through brightwheel and receive an almost immediate response. Miss Hayley, Miss Evelyn, and Miss Me'ami are three of the most loving, caring, and energetic people I've ever met. My three year old is having the best time learning how to make new friends, express himself, and grow in ways I've never imagined. His confidence and language skills have gone through the roof this year. He comes home from school with the biggest smiles (which alone would be enough!) but also shares with me everything he's learning from how to cut fruit, to weather patterns, and even who invented the potato chip (spoiler alert: it was George Crum). My fridge is full of artwork that he proudly presents to anyone willing to listen, and for that I am thankful. Thank you to Sage Academy for creating a safe and affordable space for our children to grow up strong, confident, and healthy.

My kids learning far surpassed my expectation - and my husband and I are M.D. and master's educated. We take academic very seriously, i do not worry at all dropping my kids off. Ms. Roshana is an amazing director. Ms. Allah is incredible w preparing my daughter for elementary. Both my kids learned English, alphabet, colors, numbers, singing n much more after 5-6 months there. They are emotionally intelligent due to social interactions with other children. Not to mention- this is a nurturing environment w staff who love, care and treat our children like their own. Ms. Rumanik, Ms. Anita and much more helped raise my daughters to be proud, independent toddlers.

There are some teachers there that have been working there for years, which is a good thing because it assures me that they Are working in something they like and it's their passion. Miss Anita and Miss Rutmanik took excellent care of my baby. She left when she was five years old and was ready to start kindergarten at school till this day whenever she has a day off at school I called them and they welcome my baby with their arms open and my daughter always loves to go back and see her old teachers. We love them very much and we appreciate their hard work, dedication and love they show to all the students.

Caterpillar Cottage is the preschool you want for your little one as well as to help you through…read moreyour own parenting journey. If you're looking for "play based learning," the teachers and owner are the golden standard for this approach (and if you're not familiar you must get familiar and find a play based environment for your kiddo-I have lots of thoughts on this). All the teachers care deeply about each student and are always exploring, considering and applying the most thoughtful means to help guide and nurture each and every one of them. I can't say enough. Go to an open house and see for yourself. You will be forever changed from the first step in the door. I heard so many good things about this school from friends with older kids before we toured and it did not fail to impress and inspire me.

Caterpillar Cottage is a true gem. Both our daughters attended pre-school here (our youngest is…read morestill attending), and though the girls have such different personalities, they both thrived. The school's approach is empathetic so that even the littlest children feel seen, heard, and understood. The teachers model and foster social-emotional skills skillfully, so that the kiddos become considerate but effective self-advocates and negotiators, establishing the building blocks for identifying their own emotions and needs and working through conflict. The teachers are gentle and caring. You feel totally confident leaving your child under their guidance, knowing they will be treated with respect and kindness. The teachers and director also become your genuine partners along the journey of raising your child. Through coffee hour chats, expert talks, knowledgeable resource recommendations, and one-on-one conversations they can help troubleshoot any parenting challenges you are working through. For myself and some alumni parent friends of mine, the school has been such a trusted guiding light that "Caterpillar" has become a verb. If you're not sure how to deal with a child situation, you ask yourself, "How can I Caterpillar this?" What would (lead teacher) Andrea say or do? All this is on top of the other good stuff of pre-school they provide: arts exploration, outdoor play, stories and gardening and science experiments and a lovely community of parents and friends. Highest recommendation!

My daughter recently had her last day at Petite School House after spending over two wonderful…read moreyears with their incredible team, and I cannot express how grateful I am for the love, care, and support they have provided our family. As a first-time mom, I had many concerns about transitioning my daughter into a preschool program, but the Petite team quickly reassured me and made the experience such a positive one. From the very beginning, every staff member was warm, welcoming, and genuinely invested in the children. One of the things that stood out most was that every teacher knew my daughter by name, even those who were not her direct teachers, which truly showed how connected and caring the entire team is. Ms. Salmeena and Ms. Marilyn have built such a special program. Their dedication, leadership, and attention to detail are evident in everything they do, from the thoughtful planning to the incredible support they provide to both teachers and families. I cannot say enough positive things about our experience at Petite. The impact this team has had on my daughter's growth, confidence, and development has meant so much to our family. It is incredibly bittersweet to say goodbye, and while I am so sad to see this chapter come to an end, I am comforted knowing we will be back next summer for camp! Thank you to every teacher (special mention to Ms Janelle, Ms Rebecca, Ms Jackie, Ms Rosa) and every staff member who played a role in my daughter's journey. We will always be grateful for the memories, kindness, and care you have given her.

This is my second review for Appleschool, as my son is about to leave. My first one was posted…read morearound the time of enrollment, now I can write about our 3 years of experience. Initially, we took our kid to Apple School, as I heard that it is hands down the best Russian-speaking school in Los Angeles. Turns out that curriculum is in English (Duh, it is a structured preschool), but they do immerse the kids in Russian language, Ukrainian culture and overall make the kids a bit more international. Don't ask me about his Hebrew homework - I can't read this hieroglyphs... but apparently my son can :). As far as results for a 5.5 year old boy: 1. He and writes very well. He actually likes to read. 2. He also reads in Russian language 3. He knows all the states in the union, countries in the world and their capitals - Geography 4. He exercises at home with great form, as they do gymnastics weekly in preschool 5, He knows the lifecycle of the butterflies (my wife and I did presentation) Much much more

Montessori is so important and this school's approach is full of love, play, independence, nurture, art, music, dance, and strong education. My daughter's confidence, independence, learning, and social skills have soared because of this school. She has so many friends and I have made friends with the sweet community of parents. The layout of this school is so special. The outdoor area is massive and the classrooms have so many toys and books. Most of all, these teachers are the most compassionate women. They are expert teachers. My daughter LOVES her teacher. They have the most special relationship. All of the teachers are warm people that I feel very comfortable with. They transform these little balls of mush to independent big kids in the most loving way. I feel like I can call any time and when I have, any 5 of the teachers would magically know exactly what's going on with my child at that moment! In the beginning, when I needed updates on my daughter, this was the biggest comfort. They were so loving and kind during that difficult adjustment to school for the first time. I know as a teacher myself, this time of life is precious and goes by very fast. I want my daughter to have this time learning through play and toys, learning through friendships, learning through art and music, and learning outside before she starts kindergarten. Sorry, but as a teacher myself, I have observed TK. Not doing it. I want my child to have one more amazing year before public school. She will have 12 years of public school; Montessori is special. The school also creates the most precious memories with special events that I will cherish forever. Potty training was accomplished quickly and with so much encouragement. Parking is easy. If you are considering, sit down with Ms. Kumi. All of our neighbors sent their kids. We were told: You MUST send your child there. They were right. I am very thankful.

Montessori House of Children has been an incredibly positive and meaningful experience for my son…read moreand our family. The owners and staff have dedicated many years to this school, making a lasting difference in the lives of children across generations, and it truly shows in everything they do. My son gained so much from an early age--learning how to color, hold a pencil correctly, write his name, and even begin addition and subtraction. The summer camps are excellent, the dance classes are fun and engaging, and the holiday celebrations beautifully reflect diversity and respect for all cultures. The environment is warm, welcoming, and inclusive, which made us feel comfortable from the very beginning. While we are sad to be leaving Montessori, we are also very proud that our son is ready for his next step. We are grateful for everything this school has given him and highly recommend House of Children to other families

My husband and I were looking at multiple daycares in our area knowing that we'd have to go back working full-time. The top things we were looking for was a place that had a large enough space for kids to roam but small enough that it feels intimate and homey, a place that was safe and clean, and most importantly, somewhere where you knew the staff cared for the kids. Le Petit is exactly that and more. Zari and the teachers were always so attentive. Every single time we'd pick up our daughter, she would always be smiley and happy. Thank you Le Petit!

Now that she has moved on to TK, she still misses her teachers at Little Dreamers(T.Minji,Julie,Kaylee)That shows just how much love and care she received from them.

The school provides freshly cooked meals daily, and they often hosted nice events that brought families together. The administrative staff were not only easy to work with but also genuinely nice and sincere, always doing their best to accommodate our needs.

I also wish they had more outdoor playtime, since the school has such a beautiful, spacious, and very kid-friendly outdoor area. Overall, it was a caring and supportive place for our child's early years. I highly recommend touring--it's a wonderful school, and you'll be amazed.
