I really cannot say enough about this preschool. If you aren't familiar with the Montessori Method,…read moreyou truly are doing your child a disservice. It is the only way to go for the Pre-K years. My daughter went here for three years before entering a traditional elementary school, and it was truly a wonderful experience; we felt she was loved by the teachers and encouraged to use her voice and interests to grow and develop her own little self. The Montessori Method is the only way to go for pre-school, and this school embraced the method fully. My daughter's confidence, academics and social skills blossomed while attending. I loved that there is a parent observation room (with a mirror so students can't see you), and parents are welcome to observe any time. Whereas other preschools have rigid rules and policies, children at this preschool aren't punished or shamed for wanting snack when they are hungry; wanting to master a certain art project; and/or take responsibility for their actions. They encourage kids to be independent and master their interests before moving on to the next thing. I loved that the teachers are all parents themselves, and have been with the school for years and years. My child is now in Kindergarten and is excelling in academics and socially as well. Her Kinder teacher tells us she is focused, is beyond proficient in her reading, writing and math, and is known to all as a kind friend. I know much of that has to do with parenting, but also some of it is the fact that she attended the Montessori School. Thank you CMCH for three great years of pre-school!

Chico Christian excels on many levels, but one of the most important to us was their communication across the board. Every employee there is truly special and if we had a third child they would be attending Chico Christian as well. Thank you to all of their staff. My wife and I both highly recommend sending your child to Chico Christian if you're looking for a great and safe daycare.

As a first-time mom, I was nervous about leaving my baby in someone else's care, but they went above and beyond to ease my worries. Everyone here genuinely loves what they do -- they care for the kids as if they were their own, showing real warmth, attentiveness, and dedication to their safety. Updates through the app are so great! They often send pictures and even videos, too. We definitely recommend Chico Christian.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Smart Start! From the moment I called to schedule a…read moretour as a panicked first time mom leaving her child somewhere for the first time, it was clear that this place is special. The staff is incredibly warm, attentive, and truly passionate about the children and the parents honestly. My daughter flourished here as the learning is fun and educational, with plenty of hands-on activities and lots of things to take home as memories. By the age of 3, she knew all of her ABCs, could point out any letter, numbers and started learning how to write her name. I loved the daily updates and photos I got. The teachers also took the time to understand my childs needs and interests, and if any changes happened at home, they ensured to help with them at school the best they could. I couldn't have asked for a safer, better school to help keep my baby safe and get her a jump start on school.

If you were looking for the best preschool in Chico, CA, look no further!! We've had our daughter…read moregoing there since she was an infant and can't say enough good things about Smart Start!! They're about "the whole child" and not of the philosophy of simply a "day-care"; but truly invest in the learning, social skills and overall best well being of all of their children. Their staff is amazing and give each and every child the individual attention that we, as parents, hope that our children get. Their facility is consistently clean, and their classrooms are large and spacious. If you've done your research and looked into other pre-schools (as we did...and quite extensively), you'll know exactly what I'm referring to. Bravo Teacher Ann, and her loving staff for investing in OUR next generation and future!!

This place is beyond amazing, and I am so happy to have such great care given to my children while my husband and I are working. Its a clean, cozy, and welcoming environment for learning and having fun for the most special little people in our lives! To just throw it over the top, theres a covered patio area giving the kids room to play without having to be 100% exposed to the extreme weather we experience in Chico, and the outside play area gives them so much room to run around and have a good time. Denise has selected the sweetest staff who seem like they honestly love what they do and value their time spent with the kids. As someone who constantly seems to have a concern about something, I have zero about Enchanted Play and the quality of care given to the kids here. We currently have an 11 month old and a 3 year old enrolled here, and we are beyond happy!

They feed the kids homemade fresh meals, which helps parents in the never ending quest to broaden their palettes! They have tons of outside time in their very safe and functional backyard. And my favorite part of it all is the circle time, learning games, and arts and crafts activities they do daily. They teach the kids letters and number and do fun science and math projects to keep them learning while having fun. They also do naps every day which is both amazing and admirable (my son refuses to nap at home these days). Denise has watched my 6 and 3 year old since they were babies and they both dearly love her and teachers, which is proof what they are doing is working.
