The growth we have seen in them as a result has been incredible! I always stay for a while and watch to see interactions my son has, and I'm always blown away by how great the teachers are with these children. They have gone above and beyond, and I continue to be surprised and thankful each year that they run their school the way they do. I have to drive a ways to get there, but moving to a closer preschool is not an option. We trust these people with our children's lives each day, and I know they're learning and growing and are safe here. We love it!

They always just sat and watched them play never interacted with them. They try to boss you around with when to bring them when it's not school. It's DAYCARE. my kid would cry in the in the morning when dropped off and they would tell me to leave him on the floor. They wouldn't even give the kids a hug to make them feel better. Doesn't seem like a place that is there for the kids sake. I didn't even realize how bad it was till we found a place that is so loving and caring and actually teaches the kids and interacts with them.

Both Nicole, the Director and Nikole, the manager are fantastic, and our little boy thrived in the preschool class with Ms. Evelyn. She is truly a gift--so hands-on and dedicated. Our son learned so much from her, and it was clear how much she genuinely loves her students. When he transitioned to the TK program with Ms. Carmen, I was a little nervous because he was so attached to Ms. Evelyn. But Ms. Carmen exceeded our expectations! She took amazing care of our child and ran an exceptional program. Every day, he'd come home talking about how much he loved Ms. Carmen, his class, and school in general. The school is clean, organized, and communicative. I especially loved the app they use to keep parents updated. The only reason we left was that our son aged out and became eligible for a charter school. We're so sad to leave but so grateful for the incredible experience. We will definitely return for drop-ins during summer breaks. Thank you to everyone who made our time there so wonderful. Our son Mason was loved, appreciated, and cared for by such an amazing team, and we'll always cherish our time at Childtime. I highly recommend enrolling your kids here!

Pam's is the perfect place for them to start their school career. She is a loving and caring teacher that not only teaches them academics, but also social skills. My older son was more than prepared for elementary school and is now at the top of his class. I attribute much of his success to the foundation he received at Pam's. She gave him a great start on reading, which was possible because of the one-on-one time she was able to spend with him in this one room school house setting. Her assistant, Miss Sharon, is also a great teacher who has an amazing amount of energy and always has creative themes that the kids love.

We enrolled Jan 2023, first day he comes home, my child had scratches on his face, we get a OUCH report tell us of a mishap or injury occurred, this is the schools procedure to keep the parents informed. As days go by, we received DAILY injury reports, a scratch, a bite, a bruise, slowly the Boo-boo/ouch reports stopped, but the injuries continued, we asked for a meeting with the head teacher she informed us their care plans of Ratio to students will be smaller, and a better & closer supvision will be monitored, I informed the teacher if the roles were reversed and a child comes to school with unexplained injuries the school would probably call DCSF, I am concern ! Am I leaving my baby to be abused in a Christian school, the "stigma" sets in. It's a month later and my gut a roaring! trying to tell me something, today i hung out and for a good 10 mins and yes I am monitoring the time, there is NO teacher supervising the play ground, I discovered they are on side the bldg tucked away talking to a New Employee, today I observed six kids rough housing on the playground with injuries!, how many other children are being neglected. Enough is enough granted they are affordable but now I can understand why. I've taken a picture still debating to post, granted I can blur out the faces.

We have thought a lot before writing this review which mostly reflects how we felt about…read moreAspirations at the end of our almost 5 years with the school. We ended up leaving because despite having had such a long time with the school, it became obvious to us at the end that we weren't valued as a family and that our little one wasn't truly seen as a whole person. We had one child start in the Bambini (baby) room just before COVID, went back after COVID and continued all the way through until starting Kindergarten. We had another child that spent a couple years here before just leaving this year. On a whole, Aspirations feels like a Instagram dreamspace - the Emilio Reggio style learning emphasizes the environment and it truly shows. As a parent, you know your child is surrounded by beauty. The art show feels special (although you eventually come to realize how much "teacher guidance" the final auction pieces actual reflect). The gala is also exciting and fun (when it happens). The playground is spacious and beautiful. Our years through Aspirations meant our kids have been in almost every room and in reflection there were great teachers and there were so-so ones and almost every year there was at least some unexpected teacher turn-over in the middle of the year. We ended up leaving because the first time we had any issues, we were surprised at the inflexibility of the administration and unwillingness to work with us. We requested that our little stay with friends in transitioning to a new class, shared the difficult family/life events that were affecting her and had the admin team tell us that they were not going allow her to change classes that despite the fact that the requested class was not yet being filled (they wanted to keep spots open for newer families/kids). Additionally, they weren't even willing to come up with a alternative plan (ie she could move to that class if someone transitioned out). The finality of "administrator knows best" was a slap in the face and made us finally look around and realize that this was one of the most expensive schools around, does not provide lunch, and its premium for the "extended care" (4-5pm where all extended care kids get placed with another teacher for that last hour, sometimes a different one daily) was not the standard everywhere.

The teachers are always there to discuss how her day went and responsive if I have a question on the chat to them during the day. She loves all the outdoor time and has been making and maintaining close friendships since she arrived. The school let me throw a foam party for the kids for my daughter's birthday. The teachers organised it, notified the parents, managed clean up. Simply because they knew the kids would love it. They accomodate my requests for her food and keep special treats seperate as I am specific about what she eats. The teachers do things weekly not just for $$ but because the kids will adore it. It's all so very fun and wonderful, growing caterpillars, learning about dinosaurs and the world, planting things and trying science experiments. The experiences kids should have. We love, love, love El Camino and as she is going to Kinder soon we are sad to have to leave. I trust the teachers completely and have a happy daughter coming home everyday. Can't recommend highly enough.
