Every single teacher she's had has been kind, caring, supportive and made her feel so at home. We love all the teachers and Ms. Monica & Ms. Anita do an amazing job at making the school environment be a safe and joyful one for all the kids. The extra curricular activities are so varied - dance classes, taekwondo and soccer, and my daughter has learnt so much academically. The teachers do a great job of sending photo updates everyday, and host special events like an annual Christmas show and Mother's / Father's Day celebrations. The summer program is so fun for the kids, they bring in awesome activities like petting zoos, reptile shows, hula dancing and water slides. The meal and snacks provided have been huge for our family, they take the pressure off having to prepare lunchboxes, and I always feel good that my kids have been offered a healthy selection of foods at school. We feel so fortunate that we still have another two years at the school with our youngest daughter :) can't recommend highly enough!!

Coming from an at-home daycare with only a few kids, I was worried preschool might be a big adjustment for him, but the teachers gave him extra love and attention to make the transition easy. They were very thoughtful in helping him move from Pre-K1 to Pre-K2, and then to TK, making sure he felt comfortable every step of the way. Now that he's about to graduate, he's made many friends and will definitely miss his teachers. I'm really glad we found this school and would highly recommend it to other parents!

From the very beginning, the staff created a warm, nurturing environment where he felt safe, supported, and excited to learn. He truly loved going to school every day which, as a parent, says everything. The program is thoughtfully structured with engaging activities that promote both learning and social development, and we consistently saw him grow in confidence, independence, and curiosity. The teachers clearly care deeply about the children and go above and beyond to create meaningful experiences. Communication was always strong, and we felt like true partners in our child's development. If we hadn't moved, we would have absolutely stayed. I highly recommend Marina View to any family looking for a caring, enriching preschool environment.

You can get a hold of them any time, day or night, and they are there for you. They use this awesome app that to let us keep track of diaper changes, meals, and daily activities. Safety and security for the kids are the top priority here. They don't let anyone pick up kids unless they are added to the check in app. We have to provide a picture of the person's ID beforehand and they verify the ID in person at the time of pickup. You know the kids are happy when they refuse to go home at the end of the day. Thank you Miss Fay and Mrs. A!!!

I love this school - I wish they went up to middle school as well!…read more All my 3 kids have gone here. I moved from Los Angeles specifically because my oldest son at the time I felt needed to be in private school; he was getting left behind in public school and he had so much potential. I interviewed with many schools all over Orange County and got a good vibe from McDowell. He started there in 2015 in 4th grade. He LOVED it and thrived there. McDowell gave him a strong foundation and he is about to be a senior at a public high school. He is a straight A student in all IB, AP and honors classes. My twins have now gone there since kindergarten and they are about to start 3rd grade. They actually look forward to school and love all their teachers and the other students! From the extracurriculars, to their main teacher for the year, to the other parents, and the Head of school, Mr. Lincoln, it has been a wonderful and nurturing environment for all my kids. I would recommend McDowell wholeheartedly!

She spends so much time with each child, and they get so much love and attention. She made a fresh lunch each day, choosing a variety of items for the kids to try, and always healthy. My boy got to experience new meals, and she would tell me which he liked so I could prepare them at home as well. It really broadened his menu for sure. My son began talking while there, and she taught him both english and spanish words. I was always amazed what new things he would learn. He loved it so much that he was always excited to go each day, and he never wanted to leave when I would come to pick him up in the evening. He wanted us all to play together. We wish we could have stayed with her. I would highly recommend this daycare. They are very special.
