Absolutely Exceptional - More Than Just a School…read more Year after year, this Montessori school continues to amaze our family. It is rare to find a place that balances rigorous academic excellence with such a genuine focus on character development and respect. We have watched our youngest (now 4) blossom here over the last two years. The growth in his education level is nothing short of outstanding--he is learning concepts I wouldn't have expected at his age, yet he is doing it with joy and curiosity. But beyond the academics, what impresses me most is the school's commitment to constantly bringing in new activities and enhancing the learning environment. They never settle; they are always finding ways to be better. A few amazing days of the year for you and the family: All the Holidays - The school ensures we celebrate holidays from across all cultures and life. Fathers' Night: An amazing way to connect their children with their fathers. One of the best moments I look forward to every year. I Mother Tea Time: Another amazing experience for the children to spend some quality academic and fun time with their moms. This standard of excellence isn't limited to just one teacher; it is consistent across the board. Every staff member, at every level, cares deeply about these children. If you are looking for a place that will truly invest in your child's future, this is it. We couldn't be happier.

My 4 year old granddaughter is a student this year at Growing Garden Preschool. We love this school…read moreand can't say enough good about it. For starters, the owner/teacher, Tami Blaise is exceptionally creative and well organized. She stays on task while making learning a fun experience for the children. The classes are limited to 12 students with 2 instructors. Every week Tami sends a detailed message to the parents with a review of the prior week's instructions and activities (including beautiful pictures of all of the children involved in activities) and what's coming up for the current week. We highly recommend this school if you are looking for an exceptional preschool learning experience.

They truly take the time to understand each child individually and support them through every stage--from the toddler years through becoming more expressive and independent. As a parent, I've always felt completely confident and at ease leaving my child in their care, which means everything. The kindness and support they've shown not only to my son but also to me as a parent has made a lasting impact. This is a place where children are genuinely nurtured, and it shows every day.

My kids are part time, but they learn so much in the few days they are there. My kids usually come home talking about what they did that day, and always with a smile. We also love that Sunshine House follows the BUSD schedule, it makes life so much easier, since my oldest is in school as well. I would highly recommend this school and would refer family/friends if they ask.

She looks forward to it everyday. She talks about school even when not there and throws tantrums when we have to leave. She comes home each day with school projects they completed and tells us all about what they learned that day. Keri is a great director and is so flexible with us. Ericka is great at being the creative and loving teacher, they are so patient with the little ones. Marquis, Liz, Maria and Shivongi also do a great job at teaching the kids. Thanks Sunshine house for loving our little girl as much as we do.

My daughter has been at Dainty for over a year and loved every minute of it! I couldn't be happier…read morewith our experience at this school. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the warmth, respect, and genuine care the staff has for each child. The classrooms are beautifully organized, calm, and filled with engaging materials that spark curiosity and independence. From Ms. Deb, to Ms. Cindy, to Ms. Ghazal, to Ms. Alyssa, to Ms. Gloria-- everyone has become like family to us! Most importantly, my child feels safe! With the Playground app, teachers and parents can communicate and receive regular updates about my child's day. The sense of community is strong, and we always feel welcomed and supported. If you're looking for a nurturing, inspiring place where children learn through hands-on experience and develop a lifelong love of learning, I highly recommend Dainty.

Dainty Montessori has honestly been the best choice we've made. Our toddler was at another school…read morefor a few months before we found Dainty, and she cried at every single drop-off and pick-up. I was nervous about switching things up on a two-year-old, but the moment we toured with Ms. Deb, I felt so much better. She's the director, and her cheerful, positive vibe is something the kids really pick up on. She made both our daughter and us feel totally at ease right away. To my surprise--and honestly, my immense gratitude--our daughter has never cried at drop-off at Dainty. The only tears we see are tiny pouts at pick-up because she doesn't want to leave. She truly never wants to miss a day. She started at 2.5 in the Butterfly room with Ms. Cindy and Ms. Ghazal, who were both amazing and taught her so much. The environment is safe, friendly, and full of teachers who leave the kind of impression that sticks with a child for life. We had a few little transition hiccups early on, but Ms. Deb handled everything quickly and thoughtfully. Now my daughter is with Ms. Alyssa and comes home excited to share whatever new thing she learned that day. The teachers all support each other, too, and she has a great connection with Ms. Liiana, who teaches the next age group up. Whenever someone hears that my three-year-old is "in school," they assume it's just a daycare. But Dainty is so much more than that--it's a truly remarkable school with an incredible staff. They put so much time and effort into every event and holiday. The kids have a blast, and honestly, so do the parents.

I have had my fair share of experiences with preschools with both of my daughters and we were so lucky to have found Ms. Nanette and Little Wonders Preschool. Nanette possess a true passion for children, making learning fun and positive social development. She brings out the best in children (and parents) taking the time to know each child's personality an style an really encouraging and supporting their individually, strengths and weakness and making Little Wonders a positive and safe place to grow, learn and be creative. What was even more impressive was when my daughter started Kindergarten and the fact that she was already ahead of the curriculum was amazing. It really showed how much she advanced due to being at Little Wonders....sight words, basic math, problem solving and science... I highly recommend Little Wonders Preschool!

They say no one will love your babies like you do, but Smart Start is as close as you can get!…read moreSeriously, if I could give more stars I would (haha) I can not say enough great things about them. Being a nervous mother, it is so reassuring when your shy toddler is not only excited to go to school, but runs right up to the teachers in the mornings & is happy to start the school day Ms Trish is absolutely amazing, so kind & genuinely cares about each kiddo. I love how well they communicate as well as their security measures to keep every child safe. Both the inside of the facility & outside play yard are always clean & well maintained which I appreciate as well. I could write a novel of all the great things but to sum it up... if you're looking for a cozy, caring preschool/daycare for your precious little one, this is the place to go!

When we went to tour the school, my son seemed instantly comfortable and didn't want anything to do with us which was how we knew this was the place for him. He was usually a Velcro child and we couldn't be further than an arms reach from him without him freaking out. The school is always VERY clean, decorated so nicely with kids artwork and so cute for holidays, and they have a sweet chicken that loves the kids! All of the staff is so sweet, patient, and understanding. My son had a hard time adjusting to not being home with me all day and was later diagnosed with autism and they never once made him feel less than. Instead, they were able to pick up on his needs like needing his schedule to stay the same, how to talk to him when he's doing something he shouldn't without him freaking out, and helped in his potty training journey. He is now almost 5 and aging out soon but I couldn't be more grateful for everything they have done for him. Our daughter is currently enrolled since she turned 18 months and everyday she comes home with new words (she just turned 2), loves the staff, and loves her friends and environment there. If you choose a preschool for your child , let it be this one, you won't be disappointed.
