My daughter has attended La Casa for several years, and it has been such a wonderful experience. She loves going to school and always comes out with a huge smile on her face. The teachers are fantastic and the events they put on (especially dad's day) are amazing. I am going to be sending my son to the school next as he grows older and I expect him to have the exact same positive experience my daughter has. Don't let the bad reviews fool you. This school is amazing, and I have never experienced anything negative while on campus, ever! read more

I've had two children attend La Casa. I could not recommend this beautiful school more. Many changes have taken place that are heartbreaking, but there's still no better place for my children. What originally drew us in, and has not changed, is that the teachers and staff lead with love and kindness. There are many projects to take home, opportunities to connect with other families and cute events to be delighted by. read more

This school is a such a gem! The campus itself is so gorgeous. It has a beautiful grassy court yard where they hold all the fun little events and two quaint playgrounds that are surrounded by huge shaded trees. But aside from the grounds being immaculate the teachers are SO wonderful! My child is absolutely thriving, he comes home and really does surprise me with the amount of things he's learning. I so wish this school would go to kindergarten! read more

This preschool was the absolute best until about a year ago. The director, who was the heart of the school, was let go for unknown reasons and many teachers left after she did, actually eleven of them, and they were wonderful teachers. The soul of the school is now gone, it's sad and disheartening. We will not be sending siblings to the school even though that was our initial plan. We used to recommend this school to everyone we knew, now we will not recommend to anyone. In fact, we will discourage their attendance. It's not the same school, will never be the same school with the new director and those in charge. read more

My daughter started in the 3's class at La Casa after her previous preschool wasn't the right fit, and we couldn't be happier with our decision. The teachers at La Casa are exceptional--kind, nurturing, experienced, and truly invested in the growth of each child. The school's environment promotes love, kindness, and a genuine sense of community, and I'm so grateful for the teachers who have supported my daughter in building confidence and preparing her for kindergarten. As parents, we always feel informed and engaged. We receive weekly recap emails with photos, which help us stay connected to our daughter's daily activities. There are also many special events throughout the year, including the Country Fair, Preschool Olympics, Dad's Day, Mom's Day, a holiday recital, and a Veteran's Day performance, just to name a few. We love attending these events and look forward to each one. We absolutely love La Casa and feel so fortunate to have chosen this school for our daughter. read more

My kids went here and I loved the preschool and former Director but also love all that the new director is bringing in. She is making chapel & Jesus a priority and is more than qualified to run it and is a wonderful person! The whole preschool & teachers are surrounded by LOVE and LEARNING thru Play.- the kids are all happy and joyful. read more

I am so sad to be writing this review but I feel it's my duty as a mother to share with others. My family has been deeply devoted and huge advocates of La Casa Preschool since my oldest was 2. 7 years ago. The director, the teachers, the events, they are what made this school what it was. Last year the church made what I believe was decision that was a turning point in the legacy of the school and they fired the director of 42 years. That was a devastating blow to the La Casa community and it was felt deeply. The director they brought in to replace her has been abysmal at best. Her morals and values seem to differ so greatly from what had been established over the past 41 years and what kept families coming back for not only years but decades as their family's continued to grow. Since the administration has changed they have gotten rid of some of the most valued educators, it also feels as though there has been a distancing from the religious core values this school used to uphold. There are signs that they are moving towards todays societal ebs and flows and forgetting what La Casa was built upon. The remaining teachers who are there are the only semblance of the La Casa that once was. They are wonderful and loving educators who I hope can carry on the legacy, morals, and values that the preschool always stood for, but I fear if this director and the church has their way, La Casa Preschool as we know it will be a thing of the past. read more

Our 3 grandchildren graduated from La Casa de Cristo Preschool. I was so impressed when I attended the events and got to serve for the day as a grandparent. Unfortunately, the culture is not the same at all. Since the director changed everything has changed. I would not recommend any of our friends to send their grandchildren to this school. read more

I've had kids and grandkids attend La Casa Preschool over many years. La Casa Preschool was the school to attend. You would have to spend the night to get in. Waiting lists every year and that's because of the director that ran the school for 38 years did an amazing job with staff, curriculum, and events. This past year the Pastors decided to make the director leave for no reason and hire someone new. The new director isn't approachable, not kind to the staff or parents, and not qualified as a director of a school. Sad this school has been around over 42 years. 11 teachers have left this year when the school was known for no staff turnover. Enrollment extremely down. Sadly I won't ever recommend this preschool to any of my friends with young kids or grandkids. read more

We LOVE La Casa Preschool! This is my oldest child's first year attending school and we were nervous with how she would do, but we have been met with comfort and confidence at every turn. Her teachers are so sweet, caring and hands-on with her learning, and make her so excited to attend school each day. Communication has been open not only with her teachers but with school administrators. The Director, Mrs. Heather is kind, communicative and genuinely cares not just about her students but the families as a whole. The events that are planned throughout the school year are things we all look forward to, and my daughter's grandparents love being included and considered. I only wish I had sent my daughter here to school earlier because she loves it that much! I think it's important to mention that my husband and his siblings all attended La Casa 30 years ago, and the staff still remembers his mother. A legacy of love can be found at La Casa. read more

It saddens me as a legacy as my husband attended this preschool and our children that we thought our last child would continue with this preschool but unfortunately we have to make a tough decision on whether to register for next year or go to another preschool. With the church administration and the current director taking the preschool in another direction, they have taken what La Casa Preschool stood for over 42 years and turned it into complete chaos within months of the new director. The director is not approachable to parents, she dissolved the parent board, and there has been over 12 teachers that have left in a year span. This was a preschool that parents stayed overnight to get their child in for the following year. Wait lists every year. If you got your kid in you were lucky. La Casa Preschool was thee school to go to in the North Phoenix/Scottsdale area. Our child's teachers are amazing this year, so kind and loving. We can see the stress on their faces but they continue to love our child. Unfortunately the way this year has gone we are currently looking at other schools which is sad for our family. We wanted our kids to have what their dad experienced years ago. La Casa Preschool will never be the same especially under the leadership it is under. read more

I have been taking my kids to this preschool for years and was happy with experiences until the new director Ms. Silva took over. We welcomed her with open arms but unfortunately she has failed to communicate effectively with families, create an inviting and welcoming campus environment. She doesn't support all of teachers or take the time to get to know the children. It's over half the school year and she has not been in the classrooms to observe the teachers and interact with the children. I have been a parent helper several times in my son's class and on campus often. Ms. Silva is either sitting in her office or at the church side most of the time. These issues have significantly impacted the overall atmosphere and quality of the preschool! Based on my recent and current experience, I would highly recommend looking into other preschool options in the area. I'm frustrated that I sadly have to make this decision for the next school year. La Casa Preschool isn't the preschool that it's been known for. There wasn't a director change in 38 years until this year and she was forced out. 9 teachers retired last year due to the direction the church was taking the school. 2 teachers left mid year due to Ms. Silvia's unprofessional leadership. So 11 teachers gone in less than a year over the new direction the church is taking the preschool. read more

If you want a babysitter it could work. If you're interested in education, look elsewhere.

Finding the right fit for your child for preschool is a daunting task. Touring schools and asking questions, trying to make sure you leave your child in the best hands! When I walked into La Casa I just knew it was the right spot. It felt home-y (in a good way) with crafts and love all over the walls, extremely warm and friendly staff who carefully answer your questions and love your children. We live close to several preschools but I make the drive to La Casa because they take such amazing care of my daughter! I truly can't say enough good things about her teachers, the office staff, everything! The events and programs are all Christ centered and so thoughtfully put on. They have music, PE, crafts, my daughter comes home and talks non stop about how much fun she has at school. I'm so glad I found a school that both me and my daughter feel comfortable with, and I leave her in the best hands knowing she's growing and learning and playing and learning about basic Christian principles as well. Not only has school been extremely beneficial for my child, I have also been able to meet such amazing moms who have become friends and they have a MOPS program which I'm not a part of, but I know several women who are and have nothing but good things to say about it. I will most definitely make La casa my choice for preschool for my son as well when he is old enough! Keep up the good work La Casa, we love you!!! read more

I cannot say enough positive things about La Casa de Cristo preschool! My daughter has flourished these past two years there. We have made many friends and the whole La Casa team feels like family!! This is our last year here at La Casa and the thought of not being there makes me teary eyed. It is the most loving environment that any parent would want for their child. read more

We love La Casa! My son goes to the 2day 3s with Mrs Muller and Mrs Stanek and from day one he has loved it! There hasn't been one day of hesitation going in nor one day where he's come out saying he had anything other than a great time! I love the 'love and logic' approach that they take and the fact that they don't use timeouts. I think that sets La Casa apart from other pre schools. I'm amazed how Mrs L seems to recall everybody's name! I don't know how she does it to but it really adds to the personal and family feel of La Casa! read more

We absolutely LOVE La Casa. My daughter is truly excited to go to school every day. It was recommend to us by many people, and for good reason! My daughter has Mrs. Abram and Mrs. Fabry for the 2-day 3s class and we absolutely love them. They are sweet, caring, and truly make learning fun. La Casa provides the perfect combination of play with learning. I know my daughter will be more than ready for Kindergarten when she's done with La Casa. AND the different events throughout the year are so much fun! I would highly recommend La Casa and plan to send my other children here as well. read more

La Casa is the best preschool. The teachers are amazing. They really love the kids as if their own. The school offers the kids so many enriching activities such as music, PE, STEAM activities, and plenty of creative arts and play. The school hosts many events that go above and beyond such as the country fair, olympics, moms and dads day, water day and many more. I highly recommend this preschool! read more

This was our first year starting a preschool with our son and we chose La Casa and couldn't be happier! The campus is beautiful, clean and so welcoming! Our son has really blossomed in Mrs. Harvey and Mrs. Costolo's mini 3's class. He loves going to school and comes home every day with a smile on his face and great memories to share. We are so thankful for that and to have had such great teachers! The school does a great job creating a close-knit community among students and parents, offering several opportunities for families to engage and get to know one another. We look forward to spending many more years at La Casa with our two boys! read more

I have three little ones attending La Casa Preschool and we absolutely love it. It is such a nurturing environment! My girls in the mini 3s have so much fun role playing, doing arts and crafts, and reading stories and singing! Their teachers are fabulous and truly love each and every one of the children in their class. My older daughter is in Kindergarten Prep and has learned more than ever this year! She went from not writing a single letter at the beginning of the year to knowing the entire alphabet and her numbers! She loves science and can tell me all the phases of the moon! Most importantly, though, she has become so kind to her friends and family through positive reinforcement. She talks about being a sunbeam and doing good for others. She has also learned how to pray with others and for others through attending La Casa. Sending my girls to La Casa was the best decision I made for their early childhood education! read more

As a former teacher and mother of 3, I cannot say enough positive things about this preschool. Everyone from the directirs to the teachers go above and beyond to ensure each child and family is welcomed and nurtured. La Casa De Cristo preschool has become part of our family and has created so many invaluable skills, traits, and values in my children. There is no better place to start your child's academic and spiritual journey then at La Casa De Cristo. read more
