As first-time daycare parents, we were very nervous about starting daycare, but the experience has…read moreexceeded our expectations. Even after just a few days, our little one has adjusted so much better than we imagined. The owner and staff have been patient, caring, and supportive during the transition. We were honestly amazed that he was able to nap in a sleeping bag alongside the other children, especially since he normally has a very specific routine at home. It almost felt like magic! We know it's still early, but we're so grateful for the care, attention, and reassurance we've received. It's such a relief to see our child feeling comfortable, safe, and excited to go to daycare.

We are so grateful for Elle and Little Angle Family Daycare! Elle is truly a lifesaver for so many…read moreparents--and for their little ones, too. She is incredibly kind, patient, and understanding with young children as they take their first steps outside the comfort of home and experience being away from their parents for the first time. Starting daycare is such a big and emotional transition for both children and parents, and we feel so fortunate that Chris gets to go through this experience with Elle's care, patience, and support. It is such a challenging and important job, and we truly appreciate everything she does for these little ones

She has learned so much and she genuinely seems to have a good time while she is there and is always proud of the coloring or letters that she practiced. Shahnaz and her family have been a blessing to me as a single working mom, providing home cooked meals (the home always smells of delicious cooking), providing a safe place that I am comfortable leaving for the day, and always communicating any issues or major illnesses. we will be sad to live them when we eventually graduate to big girl school.

It is incredibly easy to give 5 stars to Paradise Child Care. The difficult part is to write…read moresomething that has not already been stated by the other 5 star reviews on this page. Every parent wants their child to be in a safe, caring and productive environment. This is all of those things. My son has been here for almost two years and absolutely LOVES Shahnaz and her family. In addition, he has learned so much. He surprises us with the new things he can do whether that is counting, a new word, etc. As two working parents with no family close by: we also wanted a day care with solid hours and a communicative leader. Paradise Child Care delivers on both of those points as well. Overall we are lucky to send our son here and we look forward to our daughter joining Paradise Child Care in a few months.

I met Michelle at a time when I was at a low point in my nanny career and personal life. I had…read morebeen looking for top nanny position and had been on many interviews through other agencies. It seemed like I had landed a few dream jobs only for it to slip away from me. Really trying times. Then I met Michelle! This brings a smile to my face. Meeting with her felt like chatting with a friend. I realized after that this is her skill. She loves people and wants to represent both the families and the nannies. It was a slow period and she didn't have any job opportunities at the time when I signed up with her agency, the perfect placement. After being on the hunt for my top nanny job with a kind family for many months and it wasn't happening I was getting ready to move out of state. I mentioned to Michelle that I'm no longer looking for a position as it doesn't seem like it's going to happen. Michelle didn't give up on me. She called me with 2 opportunities. I went on both interviews and was called back to do a trial for the one that I wanted !! Yay !! Then Michelle negotiated some time off that I needed to take care of a health issue. The family was so wonderful they waited for me ! All I can say everything lined up perfectly. Michelle will always return your call in a timely manner and she always checks in to see how you're doing. I thank God I met Michelle !

BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you end up using Michelle, it will ruin all other agencies for you…read more I am a professional career nanny. I have over seven years of nannying experience, five years of teaching experience, and more. I have a B/S in childhood development as well as my MAT. When I began my search for a nanny-family in LA, I did my due diligence by shopping around looking at multiple agencies. I found that Michelle had the TOP RATED AGENCY ON MULTIPLE SITES and wanted to take a closer look. I read through every. single. review. I thought to myself, "Really? Every single person had a positive experience with this agency? That's just not statistically possible if she's really working with this many people..." I decided to set up a meeting. I drove to her office where we met to discuss particulars (what I'm looking for, what families are in the market for a nanny right now, what ages/salary/commute/hours I'm looking for) and the moment she opened the door and greeted me with a giant smile and her upbeat, positive attitude, I felt like just working with HER was my perfect placement! Once we started the process, Michelle was completely professional while also refreshingly honest and realistic in her suggestions. She really took the time to get to know me and what I was looking for and she only suggested me to families that she knew had the potential to be a "love match!" After looking at a few potential matches, Michelle called me to tell me that she had "found my family!" She said, "This is the one. Please go for an interview and see for yourself." So I did. This is the part of the review where I'm going to get annoyingly emotional. Not only did the family and I immediately "click," but Michelle had made sure that all of our stats were in alignment. The age range, schedule, amount of hours, commuting time, pay rate, expectations and needs happened to all align with what I was looking for. It was LITERALLY the PERFECT PLACEMENT!!!! Coincidence? I think not. Michelle is highly intelligent, professional, personable, understanding, diligent, experienced, communicative, and pleasantly charismatic and I owe my job satisfaction directly to her. Now that I think about it, maybe I should send over a bottle of wine. Thank you, Michelle, for just being so incredibly good at what you do. As I mentioned earlier, when I started this process, I read through every one of your (5 star) reviews and thought, "There's just no way every single review can be five stars..." and now here I am adding one more.

Alexandra from Rainbow Nannie's was amazing throughout the entire process. She was very attentive,…read moreresponsive, and willing to meet with us right away when we needed help finding elder care for a family member. She found qualified applicants quickly, communicated clearly the whole time, and helped us find an incredible caregiver.

I just wanna update the first review I wrote about "Rainbow Nannies", as sometimes after someone…read morehelped once or twice they disappear or the behavior changes. Well, that isn't the case with Alexandra. As I mentioned before, this is probably by far the best nanny agency in Los Angeles, as Alexandra is always giving you 1x1 treatment. Forget about "random" emails or text messages regarding new interviews or feedbacks, without talking to a real person. Forget about unresponsive emails ou phone calls to her. If you try to get a hold of her for any reason, she will reply to you soon as she can. And that's for me, it's amazing, as other agencies in the area, most of the times, have no apparently desire to respond to you. She will help you with anything during the process of signing with the agency, she will be honest about your resume and ask if you willing to "change" for better understanding, she will help you to find a job (like no other agency), during interviews, trials, during the hiring process, and anything in between and after. My example is the perfect one, as I was hired one month ago! While the family was looking for a part time nanny, and tried multiple times to give me an offer on 25 hours a week, Alexandra, spoke to them about their "actual" needs and why not offer me a full time split position now, if that could be a thing for the near future? Well, they did! I'm working for an amazing family and super happy. And Alexandra? She keeps checking on me almost every week to see how things are going. It didn't even took her a month to replace my last position (that I also got through her agency), which nowadays it's crazy. So, If you are looking for a nanny-sitter agency, being parents or a caregiver, don't look further. Call Rainbow Nannies! Thanks so much Alexandra! Knowing I always have you to help me, makes me happy, and my life so much easier!!!

Dear Ms. Ruby, Ms. Susie & Ms. Jessica -…read more I wanted to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude for the beautiful graduation ceremony you hosted yesterday. It was clear from every detail that an enormous amount of care, creativity, and dedication went into making it such a special occasion. As a parent, watching our children take the stage with such confidence, poise, and genuine excitement was an absolute joy. The fact that they were so well-rehearsed and yet still completely in the moment is a true testament to the incredible work your teachers and staff do every single day. The event was so thoughtfully organized, and it showed. Every moment felt intentional and meaningful, leaving all of us parents with full hearts and the biggest smiles. These are the memories our families will treasure for years to come. Please know how deeply appreciated you all are, not just for yesterday, but for everything you pour into these children throughout the year. You don't just teach them; you help them grow into kind, capable, and confident little people. Yesterday was a beautiful reflection of that. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for making this milestone so truly unforgettable. With warm gratitude, Happy Mama

Our experience with Irvine Montessori School has been good. From the front desk where Ms. Ruby and…read moreMs. Suzie manage parent interactions, to classroom teachers like Ms. Ana and Ms. Angie, the commitment to the children is evident. Our child has shown progress in language and social skills, and the staff puts clear effort into milestones like graduation ceremonies and holiday events. The campus itself is clean and modern. This is definitely one of the top 10 Montessori schools in Orange County. Refine a few operational details, and they have the potential to easily break into the top 5. Areas for Improvement: Teacher rotation does cause disruption in student learning. While staffing shifts are common, the school needs to do a better job of getting ahead of these rotations and being proactive about the transitions. Furthermore, the administration should establish a structured, year-round channel for parental feedback. While daily communication from individual teachers is fine, an administrative feedback loop like bi-annual parent surveys would allow families to share insights on scheduling logistics, administrative clarity, or classroom dynamics. It remains a solid option for families in Irvine, and showing better foresight regarding teacher transitions and structured parent communication will help them reach that next level.

AND LIED ABOUT IT IN THEIR DAILY REPORT. This is a fact- his water bottle was completely full, and the multiple meals and snacks I packed him were untouched and intact- not one piece was taken out to support any claim that it was "offered to him." When I picked him up he was frantically screaming for "nana" and consumed so much food and water in such a short period that it made him sick. What's worse? They lied about it in their daily report. My concerns and complaints have not been taken seriously, either. I also URGE PARENTS especially those with kids who cannot speak for themselves, to closely monitor your children because if they're intentionally starving kids and lying about it- I wouldn't put much else passed them. I have other complaints about this place but this takes the cake. Absolutely despicable.
