    My daughter started attending this preschool in 2023, and she has absolutely loved it ever since…read more The director, Miss Sonia, and every one of the teachers have loved and cared for my daughter as if she were their own. From day one they made her feel safe, welcomed, and excited to learn. The staff is kind, patient, and truly invested in each child's growth and wellbeing. I've watched my daughter become more confident, independent, and eager to go to school every day. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing she's in such a nurturing and supportive environment. I couldn't be more grateful for everything this school has done for my baby. I highly recommend this preschool to any parent looking for a place where their child will be genuinely loved, encouraged, and cared for. And a special thank you to Miss Sonia, Miss Flora, Miss Brenda, Miss Angela, Miss Sarai and Mr Malek for everything

The director, Ms. Sonia, welcomed us immediately and truly listened to my concerns. We transitioned from a previous daycare where I felt my son's needs weren't being fully met, so her warm but firm approach was exactly what we needed. His teacher, Ms. Flor, is simply amazing--my son was potty trained in less than two weeks in her class! In just one month, I've seen incredible developmental progress. He loves his "friends," and I have total peace of mind knowing he is in caring hands while I'm at work. The facility is clean, organized, and secure with cameras and well-designed classrooms. To top it off, their pricing is very reasonable. Highly recommend!

I went to 4/5 different schools and went i found this and did a tour I knew this was the one for them. These is not just a school, they treat my family and I as family. My boys learned so much from them in a span of few months being here. As Christian Montessori school they really are the best fit for my kids teaching school and values. My boys are so sad to even leave this school.

Ms. Viviana and Ms. Valerie are great and she has been learning so much. I can tell she loves school because she runs to the gate at drop off and walks confidently inside. After school, she is always mentioning her friends. I really love the community here and it does feel like a village of parents helping each other care for our children. There are also many opportunities for fun events to meet other parents. I really can't say enough good things about this daycare. It's clean, they provide breakfast, lunch, and snacks, and it's affordable. The activities are engaging and I really appreciate the practical life skills being taught. My daughter comes home knowing how to put away her shoes and toys now! Thank you, Ms. Viviana, Ms. Valerie, and Mr. Marwin for all the care you provide for our children!

    In the short time that our daughter attended Sylmar Cubs Family Daycare, we have witnessed a truly…read moreheartwarming transformation in her life. Back in March, my husband and I found ourselves overwhelmed, juggling full-time jobs with little to no support. We desperately needed help with our kids, and after searching high and low--more than a dozen daycare options--I was starting to lose hope. The thought of leaving my timid 2-year-old, who was still finding her words, in an unfamiliar place filled me with anxiety. Then came the day I discovered Sylmar Cubs Family Daycare. From the moment I reached out to Mrs. Para, I felt a sense of relief wash over me. She was prompt in her responses, patiently answering all my questions and easing my concerns. When we visited the daycare for a tour, I was truly blown away by the professionalism and warmth radiating from the facility. Every discussion centered around the safety, cleanliness, and happiness of the children, which made it so much easier for me to trust them with my daughter. Choosing to enroll her was a significant step, and like any parent, I experienced a mix of stress and guilt leaving my little one there. However, Mrs. Para and Ms. Mikki went above and beyond to create a nurturing environment. Their gentle reassurances helped our daughter transition, easing her fears while constantly checking in with us to share updates on her progress. One of my favorite moments was when our daughter, brimming with excitement, would eagerly rush into the daycare without even looking back--proof of her comfort and joy. She even insisted, "Mom, Ms. Mikki and Mrs. Para have to come with us on our family weekend trips!" My heart melted every time I heard that. I can't express enough how grateful I am for the growth we've seen in her vocabulary in just four months! She's recognizing almost all her letters, counting with enthusiasm, and forming friendships--all thanks to the dedication of Mrs. Para and Ms. Mikki. They truly care and put in their best effort for each child. If you are a parent seeking a caring and nurturing environment for your little ones, I wholeheartedly recommend Sylmar Cubs Family Daycare. You will be amazed at how much joy and love your child will experience there. From exciting activities to delicious meals and the wonderful friendships they'll forge, it's a special place that we cherish deeply. We look forward to staying connected and plan to bring our kids for special events. Thank you, Sylmar Cubs Family Daycare! You have made such a positive impact in our lives, and we are eternally grateful. Our baby girl misses you dearly and can't wait to visit again soon!

Staff are amazing and involved with the kids; their attention to details and letting you know right away if they notice anything with the kids is much appreciated (diaper rash, falls, accidents). With the prices of daycare now days, I feel they are definitely comparable and reasonable, especially with everything offered. I've never had an issue with cleanliness at the location either. Would highly recommend this location for your childcare needs.

    I removed my previous review because, after reflecting on our family's experience, I no longer felt…read moreit accurately represented how I feel today. My daughter attended Tiny Thinkers beginning in December 2020 and remained there through age four, so this review reflects several years of experience rather than a brief enrollment. There were many things I genuinely appreciated about Tiny Thinkers. Ms. Jana, Ms. Delilah, Ms. Alejandra, and many of the teachers in the younger classrooms were incredibly kind, patient, and caring. Ms. Alejandra even helped potty train my daughter, and I will always be grateful for the love and support she showed our family. Those positive experiences are the reason this review is difficult to write. Unfortunately, our experience changed as my daughter got older. Around age four, she cried every day at drop-off. At the time, I assumed it was simply separation anxiety. Even now, over a year later, she still tells me she doesn't want to go back because "Ms. Lupe was mean to me." She brought it up again just yesterday, completely on her own. For context, my daughter is autistic and high-functioning. She is verbal, was successfully potty trained while attending Tiny Thinkers, and did not have significant behavioral issues such as aggression toward staff or other children. Like many young children, she sometimes struggled with transitions and occasionally needed extra patience and emotional support. What concerned me most was how those moments seemed to be handled. I often felt that when she struggled, the response was to remove her from an activity rather than help teach her through it. One example that has stayed with me was when she had difficulty sharing the soccer ball. Instead of being coached through taking turns and learning the expectations of the game, she was simply no longer allowed to participate. I understand preschool teachers manage busy classrooms and difficult situations every day, but I had hoped for a more nurturing, teaching-focused approach. Initially, my daughter attended Tiny Thinkers for part of the day while also attending a public school special day class. When that program changed, we had to find another full-time placement. At the time, it felt incredibly stressful, but looking back it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. She flourished almost immediately after transitioning. She now loves going to school and summer camp, participates happily, has grown tremendously socially and emotionally, and no longer cries at drop-off. Watching that transformation made me reflect differently on our experience and realize she simply needed an environment that was a better fit for how she learns and develops. I know every child is different, and many families may have a wonderful experience here, especially in the younger classrooms. However, if your child is neurodivergent or benefits from additional patience, flexibility, and emotional support, I would encourage you to ask detailed questions about how those needs are handled. I truly wanted to leave another glowing review because there are wonderful teachers at Tiny Thinkers who made a positive impact on our family. But knowing what I know now, I would make a different choice for my daughter, and I hope sharing our experience helps other parents find the environment that's the best fit for their child.

    Now that we have had a fabulous, nurturing, and successful year at our preschool, I can give a much…read moreneeded, over due review. This was the worst experience for us. My little STILL talks about how mean her teacher, Ms. Lupe, was to her and it's been over a year since she went here. Let me start by saying these "teachers" do not have degrees. They have certificates at the most. They do not know how to handle toddlers who have lots of energy. Or a special needs child. If you have a passive child, you may be a better fit here. Their way of handling difficult toddlers is to sit them in with the director in a chair. They do not communicate, or know how to communicate, or interpret a toddlers emotional needs, which makes a very frustrated toddler. Ms. Lupe was the worst. Her long sharp dragon lady nails alone shouldn't be allowed in working with toddlers. My 3 yr old child came home reciting "Give me my money" in which she learned with Ms. Lupe teaching them and filming them from a Tik Tok trend. She supposedly was given a warning from director Marisol ( who she is besties with). She came home with injuries multiple times, one being a huge black eye from a "monkey bar injury". She hated going to school every day. I really hope this policy changed, But after your initial tour, you will never see the inside of the school again, even for special holiday programs. They will have an Instagram live so you can watch your child perform. They say they have "an open door policy" because by state law, they have to. But you are not welcomed unannounced. If you buzz the ringer at the director's door, someone with come and crack the door open to see what you want. Then shut the door in your face while you wait outside. The few times I did go into Marisol's office, I heard all the screaming babies and little ones in the room next door. The smell of dirty diapers in the air. When you arrive to drop off or pick up, they meet you at the locked gate, you are NOT WELCOME to ever go inside. You will never be invited back for parent conferences, that is all done over the phone. They want as little contact with you as possible, other than to meet you at the pick up gate to complain about your child, in front of your child. They leave lunch boxes out in the heat and direct sun all day, lie and tell you they keep them inside. Some also don't speak English here. Some teachers speak very little English. They also had some State Violations while we were there. One being that they had lied about how many kids they had at the facility. This place is truly a mill. The ONLY kind and compassionate teachers that we encountered were Ms. Dalilah and Ms. Favi. Like I said, our experience was over a year ago, and I hope things have improved and changed. Please research and interview preschools before making that huge decision, these are our babies and most can't talk or are just starting to talk and put sentences together. And most importantly, TRUST your intuition.
