My son just completed a week long, full day Roblox Coding summer camp. We reserved the camp several…read moreweeks in advance and everything was well organized and communicated throughout the process. Every staff person was knowledgeable, professional, kind, supportive and communicative. The instruction provided to the kids was easy to understand, and instructors were patient and calm. They provided free scripts for future use. The facility was clean, organized and safe. They concluded each day with an email update with photos and a description of the days events and lessons. My son loved making new friends, learning how to code and script and was sad when the week came to an end. The last day of the event included a showcase where each student presented the games they made. We intend to sign up for additional coaching sessions. I highly recommend!

My daughter attended theCoderSchool in Folsom, California, for about two years (when my daughter…read morewas 12-13 years old). The experience was fantastic. My daughter learned rudimentary principles of Python, Java, and HTML. The school used exceptionally gifted high school students as instructors (teachers), which was great because my daughter could relate well to such instructors (as they were similar in age to my daughter). Further, the instructors acted as role models for my daughter, which was a huge benefit separate from the excellent instruction. The owner has a "can-do" personality and, furthermore, was very accommodating in relation to billing and scheduling make-up classes. What more could you want?

I'm so glad Keith and his family opened STEAMLabs. I've been looking for something like this for such a looong time! I love all the hands-on experiments and discoveries that spark kids' curiosity while keeping learning fun and playful. I rarely write reviews, but STEAMLabs truly deserves one. What they've created is something really special and wonderful for our kids. Let's support this amazing local business--we're so lucky to have them in our community!

The thought and care that goes into the lessons is incredible. My daughter is learning amazing skills each week she attends class and I get the bonus of beautiful art pieces to display in my home.

It's safe to say we are happy customers!

My 5yo attended Madrone for about 7 months in 2018 and it was a great experience. We enrolled her…read morefor half days because her public Kindergarten was over at 11am and I needed her to have a full day of school when I returned to work full time. (Also I didn't feel like half day K was enough for her inquisitive mind.) The school was flexible about our unusual attendance arrangement, though understandably, it didn't cost much less for a half day slot vs. full day. They always made her feel welcome when she came in mid-day. She really loved it there, despite being a kid who chafes at rules at home - she really thrived in that environment. Teacher Angela was fantastic and they quickly gave my child appropriate work for her level since she started already knowing how to read and being able to do basic addition and subtraction. Their written evals were detailed and helpful, and I felt like they really got to know my child in a short time. Their summer program was fantastic and their extended care option was flexible for the times we needed a little extra care. They also had a fantastic "Parents Night Out" where they also welcomed siblings, and we took advantage of that a few times. This is a true Montessori, where kids are expected to learn how to be self-directed. We came from less-rigid Montessori schools, so getting used to the strict dress code was hard for us as parents, but my daughter was fine with it. Our daughter entered a rigorous Mandarin immersion program the next year in 1st grade, and Madrone prepared her VERY well for it. I'd highly recommend it if you are open to a more academic environment for your pre-K/kindergartner and want to encourage independence.

**Welcome to "Strictly Business Daycare" - Where Parents' Frustrations Are Our Specialty!**…read more Are you tired of peace of mind and need more daily disruptions? Do you enjoy being pulled away from work for mysterious fevers that magically disappear the moment you arrive? Then look no further than Strictly Business Daycare! At Strictly Business Daycare, we pride ourselves on making sure your life is as difficult as possible. We know it's just daycare, but we believe in making you jump through every hoop we can think of - because, after all, it's "required by code." Need to use diaper cream or kid's ibuprofen? Better have that doctor's note ready! Want to switch to oat milk for your lactose-sensitive child? Get that prescription form signed and stamped, please! But don't worry, after you provide it, we'll either misplace it or start insinuating that you're sneaking vitamins and minerals into those bottles, sending them back home with a warning that you're violating "code" while we still give your child dairy. Because why bother with consistency when we can keep you constantly on edge? And for everything else, we'll make sure to turn it into a paperwork marathon, because we're all about "following the rules." Our receptionists are multitasking masters, constantly running between handling parent issues, bus transportation, and the occasional break to actually man the front desk. And if you need to speak with the director? Good luck! They're always "too busy" with important issues like focusing on making sure the office is seasonally decorated to perfection. Real concerns? Not so much. But hey, at least the place looks beautiful and smells like pumpkin spice in Fall, even if it's all fake - just like the care we claim to provide. But don't just take our word for it - experience firsthand how our subpar cleaning will keep little ones perpetually snotty. After all, what's childhood without a constant stream of colds? We're proud to say that in just four months, we can make even the most seasoned daycare parents wish they'd never walked through our doors. But don't worry, after those few long months, you'll be just as grateful as other parents who have finally escaped to a new daycare that actually cares about your child's well-being. It's night and day - literally. Where else can you almost lose your job and your sanity? Only at Strictly Business Daycare! **Strictly Business Daycare - Because Who Needs a Nurturing Environment When We Have Rules to Enforce?*
